rsync's --help shows there is a flag, "-r" (or maybe "--recursive") which help says "recurse into directories". I did
not use tha flagt, but `rsync` is copy a bunch of huge subdirectories (well, I hit Ctrl-C - but it would have!).
Why is it copying these subdirectories? How do I make it stop? Here is the (slightly edited) command I used
Code:
>rsync -rv localmachine.university.edu:FPU/code/* .
Also note that there are no aliases:
Code:
>alias rsync
-bash: alias: rsync: not found
