Preparing to do a from-CTAN-mirror-on-DVD install
on Sunday, I am currently refreshing the CTAN h/d
mirror on this machine. The mirror was created using
Wget, but is now being refreshed using RSYNC. Can
anyone explain why RSYNC creates one extra level of
directory, as in
D:\TeX>rsync -av --delete rsync://rsync.tex.ac.uk/CTAN/systems/texlive/tlnet/2008 CTAN\systems\texlive\tlnet\2008\
If used as-is, that incantation creates a 2008 directory
/under/ the existing one, so instead I have to use
D:\TeX>rsync -av --delete rsync://rsync.tex.ac.uk/CTAN/systems/texlive/tlnet/2008 CTAN\systems\texlive\tlnet\
