Theoretically I'm mistaken, if you read posts of real usage, I'm
seemingly right, rsync comes with pitfalls, especially regarding the
UID. However, you are seemingly right that rsync could do the job, but
mistaken that it is the easiest way, it seems to be rocket science to
use rsync without a mistake. At least for all of us, who don't use rsync
for this kind of task on a regular basis.
