# rsync |
|
|
|
This plugin adds aliases for frequent [rsync](https://rsync.samba.org/) commands, simplifying file transfer and synchronization tasks. |
|
|
|
To use it add `rsync` to the plugins array in you `.zshrc` file. |
|
|
|
```zsh |
|
plugins=(... rsync) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
| Alias | Command | Description | |
|
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | ------------| |
|
| `rsync-copy` | `rsync -avz --progress -h` | Recursively copy files and directories, preserving permissions, timestamps, and symbolic links. Compression is enabled for faster transfers. Progress is displayed in a human-readable format. | |
|
| `rsync-move` | `rsync -avz --progress -h --remove-source-files` | Same as rsync-copy, but removes the source files after a successful transfer (effectively performing a move). | |
|
| `rsync-update` | `rsync -avzu --progress -h` | Like rsync-copy, but only updates files if the source is newer than the destination (or if the destination file is missing). | |
|
| `rsync-synchronize` | `rsync -avzu --delete --progress -h` | Performs bidirectional-style sync: updates files as in rsync-update and deletes files in the destination that no longer exist in the source. Useful for directory synchronization. | |
|
|
|

|
- -u: Skip files that are newer on the receiver. |

- --progress: Show progress during file transfer. |
|
- -h: Output numbers in human-readable format (e.g., 1K, 234M). |
|

|
- --delete: Deletes files in the destination that are not present in the source (used in rsync-synchronize).
