#Grsync is a "graphical" version of #rsync. Might be useful, even just for seeing the options of rsync arranged differently.

The -a option is for #archive mode and preserves #permissions, #symlinks, #dates, #ownership (eg #chown). If our records are correct, you can do the same with the individual options (-rlptgoD) but pls double-check.

If there are files/folders you want to exclude (too big, temp files or you want to #encrypt separately etc) look into '--exclude-from' option.
