The preserve function isn't working properly. rsync copies over the
existing file even though it's the same file. Is cp changing something
even though I have --preserve? It doesn't seem to be preserving the
time stamp. Please see the script below.
# KFI Tech Guy
ls -t ~/iPodderData/downloads/'KFI Tech Guy' | head -2 | xargs -i cp -v
--preserve ~/iPodderData/downloads/'KFI Tech Guy'/{}
~/iPodderData/downloads/temp/{}
rm ~/iPodderData/downloads/'KFI Tech Guy'/*
cp -v --preserve ~/iPodderData/downloads/temp/*
~/iPodderData/downloads/'KFI Tech Guy'/
rsync -a --progress --delete ~/iPodderData/downloads/'KFI Tech Guy'/
/media/usbdisk/Podcasts/'KFI Tech Guy'/
rm ~/iPodderData/downloads/temp/*
Thank You,
