Use bidirectional rsync and pretty formatting for quick filesystem diffs.
$ rsyncdiff --help
Usage: rsyncdiff [options] <local> <remote>
Options:
-V, --version output the version number
--exclude <items> (comma-delimited list) directories or files (default: )
--gitignore [path-to-git-ignore] Excludes files from specified .gitignore file (defaults to working-directory .gitignore)
--include <items> (comma-delimited list) remove items from exclude list (default: )
-h, --help output usage information
Example:
$ rsyncdiff localpath user@host:~/remotepath
Not on npm yet, sorry. Clone repo and run npm link inside of it.
It will only tell you
1) If there are new files on either side
2) If any files are different, and which files are newer
Dry-run rsync both ways. (-n is dry run)
rsync [from] [to] -crlinz
rsync [to] [from] -curlinz
I'll put in screenshots later.
