| foo | If I want to copy files from local drive to portable drive, and if I want to remove on source as copying, I think I want rsync -av --remote-source-files source/ destination/ - correct? | 13:54 |
|---|---|---|
| sdeziel | foo: sounds right. When in doubt with rsync, you can always add `-vni` for verbose, dry-run and itemize-changes | 14:02 |
| foo | ! Thanks | 14:02 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 14:02 |
| foo | ubottu: I wasn't thanking you, I was thanking sdeziel and his real humanness | 14:03 |
| sdeziel | foo: you are welcome :) | 14:05 |
| foo | sdeziel: I think I actually want: --delete-after receiver deletes after transfer, not before ... if I want to delete files after they're transferred on source (eg. trying to free up space on my source drive and move things to destination) | 15:18 |
| sdeziel | foo: I think --delete-after is meant to cleanup the destination to remove files that were not in the source to begin with. Maybe you just want to `mv` the stuff from your source to your destination? | 15:21 |
| esv | it is always good to test with a small sample of files that you don't care losing | 15:44 |
| foo | sdeziel: yes, I'll look into move, thank you | 15:58 |
| foo | sdeziel: oh, if you're referring to the mv command, my concern with that is if something happens during transfer a file getting corrupted midway which is why I like rsync. I can sync things and then clean up as needed. Maybe I underestimate mv and it's smarter than that | 16:02 |
