+# rsync
+
+    rsync from/dir to/location
+
+Copies files, creating `to/location/dir`
+
+    rsync from/dir/ to/location
+
+Copies the contents of `from/dir` to `to/location/`
+
+## Options
+
+Basic ones:
+
+- `-r/--recursive`: recurses directories
+- `-v/--verbose`: increases verbosity
+- `--delete`: deletes files from destination that weren't in the source
+- `-z/--compress`: compress files during transfer
+
+### -a / --archive
+
+Turns on `-rlptgoD`. So recursive (`-r`), and preserves a bunch of stuff like
+soft links, permissions, owners, modification times, special files.
