so I cloned a folder into another disk (freshly formatted as ext4) and it completed successfully.
My issue is that if I ran the command above but with "dry-run" as an additional parameter, I expect that no files/folders will show up. But all the files and folders shows up again.
These are the commands I've tried to check if there more files/folders that needs to be copied
The source-folder doesn't contain links. It only contained photos organized in folders.
Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? I just want to check that all the files/folders were copied.
I'm running rsync 3.1.1 and Ubuntu 16.04.
Thanks!
ps. this is not a desktop machine as such there's no "X"
Code:
rsync -aiv --delete source-folder destination-folderMy issue is that if I ran the command above but with "dry-run" as an additional parameter, I expect that no files/folders will show up. But all the files and folders shows up again.
