It keeps track of what has changed and been synced on each host and makes changes in both directions on a single run. If you add or modify a file on one side, it copies it over. If you delete a file on one side it deletes if from the other and if you modify a file on both sides since the last run, it asks what you want to do (or skips the file if running non-interactively). --=20 Neil Bothwick c:>Press Enter to Exit --Sig_/g/eWFB2LaG5kyWN6SE=Prc3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlC7uxUACgkQum4al0N1GQPPzACcDKFG3+cDNjB+V1xc3B8Ah5Uy MpYAoKeTO+KHbbthygrn63zsvxICLf9V =xlJ5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/g/eWFB2LaG5kyWN6SE=Prc3--
