RSync Large Folder on Windows

[Erik Jacobs]

I'm not the rsync king but I believe that without the -u flag specified
rsync will always send every file (not just stuff that is newer).

-t only preserves the filetimes (meaning if it sends a file from yesterday
today, it won't have today as the timestamp on the dst machine)

Right.  Sorry.



Rsync is running on a Windows XP Pro computer to a Win2000 server.  Server
is running 2.6.6.  Client is running 2.6.0.  The command being used is:



rsync -vrtz --stats --port=874 --delete-after  <source folder> <destination>

Brad,



It would help to know the rsync command that you're using and what versions
of what are being run where.

Got a weird thing happening here.  I'm running rsync on a windows computer
to a windows server over the internet.  When I run the rsync on a full
folder (approx 3.5GB, 38k files), rsync sends almost all the files to the
destination server every time.  When I rsync individual folders, the files
are skipped rather than sent.  Any ideas?
