Hi
Another rather recent feature of "rsync -R" (--relative) is to easily
allow to specify from what point you want -R to apply.
>From the man:
-R, --relative
...
It is also possible to limit the amount of path information that
is sent as implied directories for each path you specify. With
a modern rsync on the sending side (beginning with 2.6.7), you
can insert a dot and a slash into the source path, like this:
rsync -avR /foo/./bar/baz.c remote:/tmp/
That would create /tmp/bar/baz.c on the remote machine. (Note
that the dot must be followed by a slash, so "/foo/." would not
be abbreviated.) For older rsync versions, you would need to
use a chdir to limit the source path. For example, when pushing
files:
(cd /foo; rsync -avR bar/baz.c remote:/tmp/)
