Backup With ``rsync``
=====================
Does what it says. Useful for frequent syncing between two devices with
similar directory hierarchies. I use it for daily copying (over ssh)
between one laptop (desktop replacement at home) to the other (more
portable laptop).
Why?
----
``rsync`` has a lot of switches, and it's exhausting to loop over them
with say ``--delete`` flag for certain directories and not for others.
With this script one can specify all that in a configuration file and
just sync whenever you want.
Features
========
- ``yaml`` configuration to specify directories and flags
- Overriding arguments supported at command line.
- Sensible ``rsync`` defaults
Example configuration
=====================
.. code:: yaml
host:
user@portable
root:
/home/user
supported_dirs:
Documents:
delete: false
Downloads:
delete: false
Mail:
delete: true
Videos:
delete: true
