texsync --delete

texsync --delete

[Peter Münster]

Hello Hans,
could you please add the option "--delete" to @@rsync in texsync.rb?

I've just realised, that cont-lmt.zip no more exists, but texsync never
deleted it on my hard-disk.

Cheers, Peter

sure, but only if you also tell me how i can tell rsync to avoid deleting the context/user and context/third paths (and tested as well -) 

(there is now also ctxtools --update which just takes the zip)

Hello Hans,
texsync --tree=current also takes the zips.
--tree=tex seems to be more, than just the unzipped zips. Is there any tree
that is exactly the same as "current" but unzipped?

You're right, the --delete option is not good for people who have
user-files in the same texmf-tree as the distribution.
Perhaps, I'll just use rsync directly without using texsync nor ctxtools...

If you want to include the --delete nevertheless, you could add
something like --exclude=context/user/* --exclude=context/third/*

Cheers, Peter
