As far as I'm aware there isn't one. The include/exclude stuff isOn 10Nov2008 09:56, L <yuanlux@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:

entirely pathname based. I have in the past done a recursive _listing_
of a mirror site, chosen files out of that, and constructed an
include/exclude file on that basis. This was automated with a script.
In my case the example was a GNU archive with multiple versions of
packages; I wished only to mirror the "latest" package.
If you can construct (via, perhaps, "rsync -n" and some postprocessing)
a list of the remote files that you want, or do not want, it is a pretty
easy task to convert that into an include/exclude list automatically. Then
you just use that in a wrapper script for calling rsync.
Cheers,

at the bottom of rsync example page @
http://www.samba.org/rsync/examples.htmlit says
Fancy footwork with remote file lists
One little known feature of rsync is the fact that when run over a
remote shell (such as rsh or ssh) you can give any shell command as
the remote file list. The shell command is expanded by your remote
shell before rsync is called. For example, see if you can work out
what this does:
rsync -avR remote:'`find /home -name "*.[ch]"`' /tmp/
note that that is backquotes enclosed by quotes (some browsers don't
show that correctly).
not sure how to make this work.
