hi,

I'm fairly new to rsync, but I'm up and going with the program. I have
mounted a windows catalogue tree on my linux box. I run the command for
backup like this:

#rsync -rtv --progress --size-only --delete /source/folder /target/folder

The first time I ran the command, all the files were properly copied to the
target folder. The next time I ran the command, it seems from the time
consumed, that the files were copied once more. It took several hours to do
the second backup. I thought rsync only copied the files which were changed.
Should I have an -a in the line, or is it just like this rsync works?
