Hi,
I made the mistake of doing an rsync of a directory into the wrong
destination,
so that the destination became a mix of two directories of unrelated files.
Top unravel the mess, I could need something like a --delete-existing
option.
The semantics would be to delete at the destination ONLY those files that
exists at the
source.
I tried to concoct a combination of options that would do this, but without
success. I thought someone here might know the answer. Or would this be a
handy feature to add?
[One should of course use --dry-run and check the result before doing such
an operation.]
Erik
