That's already possible using filter rules. An exclude both hides files on the sending side, and protects files on the receiving side. Each of these actions may be specified separately using a filter option, like these: --filter='hide sender.file' --filter='protect receiver.file' --filter='exclude both-sides.file' You can abbreviate "hide" as "H", "protect" as "P" and "exclude" as "-", as you see fit. Also, -f is short for --filter. See also the "merge" (.) filter rule, which slurps a bunch of filter rules from a file, as well as the "show" (S) and "risk" (R) rules, which allow you to specify exceptions for your hide and protect rules. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
