Get your external IP address

All what exists in dir B and not in dir A will be copied from dir B to new or existing dir C

Assumed dir A, B, C are subdirs of the current dir Exact syntax of the command is: rsync -v -r --size-only --compare-dest=/path_to_A/A/ /path_to_B/B/ /path_to_C/C/ (do not omit end-slashes, since that would copy only the names and not the contents of subdirs of dir B to dir C) You can replace --size-only with --checksum for more thorough file differences validation Useful switch: -n, --dry-run perform a trial run with no changes made

This command will help you to hunt the current mysql query statement in real time. (-R is deprecated, using updated -Y)
