Recipe 16.11. Customizing Filepaths in rsync
16.11.1 Problem
You want to be able to specify
filepaths, instead of dumping everything into a single directory.
16.11.2 Solution
Use the -R option:
$ rsync -aR -e ssh /webfiles/site1 stinkpad.test.net:/www/public
This creates /www/public/webfiles/site1, instead
of /www/public/site1.
16.11.3 Discussion
This is especially useful when you are transferring several
directories and want to maintain separate filepaths for each one.
