Local: /dev/sda1 mounted at /home/mark/music Remote: dragonfly:/Musiclib NFS mounted at /mnt/Musiclib These two directories started off identical at one point about 4-6 months ago but have been slowly diverging as my wife and I add things to each one. I'd now like them the get back into sync and keep them that way. One possibly tricky part about this will be that in some cases we have found bad rips and have reripped files to fix that. In this case there is going to be a newer file in each either location with the same name but with a new size & date. Will Unison give me an option to just accept the newer one in each location and remove or backup the older one automatically? This is likely to be a sort of long process I expect. The directories are about 50GB of ogg files, although I hope there isn't that much copying as probably 99% of it is identical. Thanks in advance, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
