Summary: Default exclude file
Product: rsync
Version: 3.0.5
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: core
AssignedTo: way...@samba.org
ReportedBy: woop...@gmail.com
QAContact: rsync...@samba.org
rsync already has a mechanism for reading exclude patterns from a file, using
the --exclude-from option, but it would be useful to read them from a *default*
file if --exclude-from is omitted.
Something like .gitignore from git.
It could work something like:
1. place .rsyncignore in SRC/ with a list of excluded files/folders
2. rsync -av SRC DEST (without the need to specify --exclude-from, it would
automatically use .rsyncignore)
