I either have a problem with rsync or it is not intended to do what I am
asking it to do.
I am trying to mirror a copy of /home/foo to a local usb drive. The copy is
made, but the destination does not appear to be deleting files I have deleted
on the source. Here is the command line I am using (part of a script I use to
do this and other housekeeping chores):
As root:
rsync -av --progress --delete --exclude /home/foo/.local/share/Trash \
--log-file=/home/foo/Desktop/$(date +%Y%m%d)_rsync.log.usb$disk \
/home/foo /media/usb$disk
What am I doing wrong?
