At the moment rsync only compares files having the same path relative to whatever base directory, unless you specifically nominate exactly two files. > I need to skip a file if the file on destination has the same name and > same size as that of source. How would it know which file is the relevant one? If the changes are systematic, you might be able to run a pre or post-processing script to move the files to the same name, then do the transfer. Alternatively, have your script run rsync only on the files that need to be transferred. -- Martin
