Description:

backupwithrsync 0.9.2

Backup With rsync
Does what it says. Useful for frequent syncing between two devices with
similar directory hierarchies. I use it for daily copying (over ssh)
between one laptop (desktop replacement at home) to the other (more
portable laptop).

Why?
rsync has a lot of switches, and it’s exhausting to loop over them
with say --delete flag for certain directories and not for others.
With this script one can specify all that in a configuration file and
just sync whenever you want.



Features

yaml configuration to specify directories and flags
Overriding arguments supported at command line.
Sensible rsync defaults



Example configuration
host:
user@portable
root:
/home/user
