Hi, I have gone through the rsync documentation and also tested same both --no-implied-dir and --keep-dirlinks options. My question is what is the difference between these options in below scenario?
I have /foo/bar is the symlink to /foo/baz at source and same directory structure with symlink is there at destination. When I sync the data from /foo/bar/* with --relative option specified, I am ending with losing symlink at destination. The rsync replaces symlink (/foo/bar -> /foo/baz) with /foo/bar directory and synch data into it rather than synching it to /foo/baz/. When I read rsync documentation and used either of --keep-dirlinks or --no-implied-dir option, everything works as expected. Jignesh
