Bit of an odd question this, but I'm going to try and make it make sense!
I'm copying my iPhoto Library to a Ubuntu machine which I use as a server. I'm using rsync to get the iPhoto folder/file/package off the Macbook, and it's copying to the server fine. At 16GB over a WiFi connection, it's never going to be quick.
I then want to copy the same files from the server, to a remote machine at a mate's house. I've got all our wedding photos and usual gubbins on there, and want it all safe. Plus, I'm playing with this stuff so it makes sense for now.
The question is thus: what happens if I start the transfer to the remote server while the files are still being copied to the local one? Will rsync stop when it's copied what was there when I ran the command, or will it just keep going?
Yes, I know I could have moved them straight from the Mac to the remote server, but I need all three copies at some point, and I can leave the server on whereas the Mac needs to be portable.
Not entirely sure all that makes sense, but there you go
Cheers!
