go-sync's Introduction

go-sync presentation

go-sync or gsync is a CLI tool written in go to mirror 2 directories on the filesytem

Why such a tool when there's rsync or other ?

Well, using rsync in Cygwin on Windows caused me many issues (unreadable files) due to permissions and ownership. Especially with NTFS filesystem when files are copied from 1 machine and accessed from another Windows system (to be honest I did not really investigate the mitigations)

If you are on Linux/Unix, you'd better use rsync

Limitations

  • does not follow links, neither create them

Build

  • Install go>=1.11
  • Run the Makefile make
  • The binary is copied into the bin directory

Usage

Example, mirror folder source1 and source2 into the destination directory destDir in dry-run mode

gsync -s source1 -s source2 -m -d destDir --dry-run

Then

gsync -s source1 -s source2 -m -d destDir
