Reverse Rsync
by userzero from LinuxQuestions.org on (#52976)
Hi All,
I'm using rsync to copy files from my local machine to Google Drive:
rsync -vaPHL (from local) /home/userzero/Desktop/directory
(to remote) /mnt/backup
"backup" is a mounted directory on Google Drive
I've just been using cp to download remote files and directories back to my local machine. Can I use rsync instead to download remote files to my local machine? What would be the syntax?
Many Thanks,
chris
