Hi everyone, I use rsync to incrementally maintain a complete mirror of my laptop. Due to the presence of large files (video), I often have to interrupt rsync and restart it later.
In this context, an option "--sort-by-size" would be very helpful to get the maximum number of files transfered before an interruption. "size" could be the actual file size, or the ammount of bytes that rsync intend to transfer. For now, I use rsync --max-size ... rsync --min-size ... To get small files sent first. But this requires scanning the directories twice. Sincerely, Sebastien -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
