don't know why it does that, but it does. It allows you to RSync one to another without actually doing anything. So that's one use, but not a very useful use. Here's the classic, or at least to my mind, the classic RSync command. Not much more complex, but infinitely more useful. RSync dash dash archive server A slash server B slash return. Now if I do an ls dash R, I suddenly have server A containing hello.txt and server B containing hello.txt. So the archive is a, it's a, it's sort of a meta command almost or a meta option in a way because essentially it is running RSync dash R L P T G O capital D on your, on your fold, on your source and destination, which if you, if you sort of decode all of that, the R is recursive dash dash recursive dash dash links. So recursive means, you know, descending into any subdirectories. So if we had another directory within server A with yet more files in it, then those would have been copied as well. Dash dash links says to copy the sim links as sim (18/53)
