You want --exclude-from=file
You can cut-and-paste those path patterns into that file just as they are.
Sadly, I'm still getting the files on the destination.
Any ideas? 3.0.7 on windows, 3.0.8 on mac.

2. Mistaking the fact that the files are in the target because they
were already in the target for rsync actually transferring them. If
they were there before you ran rsync they will still be there after
unless you use --delete-excluded
Whoops! I thought that was the default. Thank you.

I apologize in advance for asking a beginner question, but I really
could not figure this from the manual page.
I want to copy some files with rsync, and not copy others.
The stuff that I do not want to copy looks like this:
System Volume Information/_restore*/RP*
WINDOWS/Prefetch/*
Documents
When I signed up for the rsync mailing list, I was not expecting to
get all the samba bugs as well.
Is it possible to be on just the rsync mailing list, without being on
the bug report list as well?

I'm trying to use rsync to copy files from a Microsoft Windows machine
(XP, with cygwin) to a macintosh (10.5.8, PPC).
After a lot of playing with options, manual page reading, etc, I have
the following command, executed on the windows machine:
rsync -A -X -a --delete
What do you get from --version?
$ rsync --version
rsync version 3.0.7 protocol version 30

Capabilities:
64-bit files, 32-bit inums, 32-bit timestamps, 64-bit long ints,
socketpairs,
Of course, we wouldn't NEED them so much if we had better distributed file
systems,
I'm actually looking at a potential want/need for Rumor and family.
Anyone want to work with me on getting them up and running on modern
systems?

I want to backup from a windows machine to a Macintosh. All of the
guides that I've seen describe the other direction.
Worse, they all seem slightly different, or inconsistent.
The first thing that I'd want to do should be simple: an rsync -az
--delete of the entire drive, to back up all of the
