Rsync: Figure out how many files are new and how many updated

Is it possible to get stats on which files rsync modified and which ones were completely new in the destination?

Solution

  • From man rsync:

    --ignore-existing       skip updating files that exist on receiver

    You can also use the flags"

    -v, --verbose               increase verbosity
-P                          equivalent to --partial --progress

    To see which files have been changed and what is happening.
