You're probably right.  I've spent too much time on this and it's not working so.....I quit.

That's how rsync operates normally; you shouldn't have to do
anything to get that behaviour.  That's kind of the whole thing it's
for.

If you're *not* seeing that behaviour, something weird is going on.
Possibly one side or the other is recording timestamps incorrectly.

It works fine.  But, to save some time, what options should I use to only
update or copy (to the destination) files that are new and/or have a new
time stamp on them?

Here's the code I use below (pretty sure the -n means dry-run)


rsync -r -n -t -v --progress -s '/Desktop/Book' '/media/Chip/Book June'


Thanks,

Peter
