 1 | Starting this repo to keep notes about how I got rsync working on Windows.
 2 | 
 3 | My next planned step is to create a fully-automated script which will help anyone to run this on their machine (rather than distributing binaries, which I don't want to do).
 4 | 
 5 | ### How to get RSync on Windows:
 6 | 
 7 | - install cygwin (enable rsync package)
 8 | - grab those files from `c:\cygwin\bin`
 9 |   - rsync.exe
10 |   - cygwin1.dll
11 |   - cygiconv-2.dll
12 |   - (you can double check the list of required dlls using [dependency walker](http://www.dependencywalker.com))
13 | - uninstall cygwin
14 | 
15 | ### How to use
16 | 
17 | Here's an example call from a Mac OS X machine:
18 | 
19 | ```
20 | rsync -qrlP --delete local-folder user@windows-server-ip:/cygdrive/c/target-folder --rsync-path=c:/tools/rsync.exe
21 | ```
