Using this, destination is modified based upon the filesize differences.
How do I make rsync to take backup based on latest modified time, doesn't
Your understanding of rsync is incorrect. From rsync(1):
"Rsync finds files that need to be transferred using a "quick check" algorithm (by default) that looks for files that have changed in size or in last-modified time. Any changes in the other preserved attributes (as requested by options) are made on the destination file directly when the quick check indicates that the file’s data does not need to be updated."
Ok. Pardon my misunderstanding, but it still says that, "....files that have changed in size or in *last-modified time*...."
Or, if not rsync I wish to fulfill my requirement. Is there any other utility that would do the job for me?
I take regular backup for the files and folders. I had been doing it manually. Or maybe I should think of making a bash myself?
Please suggest.
