Jan 28, 2012 at 0:38 comment added Alexios @laebshade: I'd also add -HAXS to rsync invocations unless you know for a fact there aren't hard links (-H), ACLs (-A), extended attributes (-X) or sparse files (-S). None of these are implied by -a.
Jan 28, 2012 at 0:33 comment added Alexios Rsync is marked ‘optional’ on Debian, i.e. not installed by default. I habitually (and explicitly) install it on every new box I deploy. However, it's marked ‘standard’ on Ubuntu. I wouldn't say you can expect it to be installed, I'd say your mileage may vary.
Jan 27, 2012 at 23:28 comment added Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' @myWallJSON Yes. While rsync isn't part of the absolutely minimal can't-even-boot-without-it core system like rm and cd, it's installed by default by most distributions, so you can expect it to be available on non-embedded Linux installations.
Jan 27, 2012 at 17:43 comment added myWallJSON Is rsync installed on most Linux unix distribs like rm or cd?
