"lrsync" means "live rsync".
- Motivation
To make clsync more convenient and useful.
Well, honestly, this's quite useless utility because you can work with clsync directly :)
- How does that work
"lrsync" just parses arguments and sorts it for clsync and rsync (via clsync's "sync-handler-arguments"), after that it calls clsync this way: clsync -Klrsync -Mrsyncdirect -S path_to_rsync -W source_directory -D destination_directory -L /tmp/.lrsync clsync_arguments -- %RSYNC-ARGS% rsync_arguments. In this command clsync_arguments, rsync_arguments, source_directory and destination_directory are parsed from lrsync arguments.
You can see the result clsync command using option "--clsync-command-only". For example:
$ lrsync --exit-on-no-events --max-iterations=20 -av 1/ 2/ --clsync-command-only

- Use cases
-
This may be useful if you have a directory that is actively updated. And you want to move it somewhere. You can just call:
lrsync --exit-hook /root/apacherestart.sh --exit-on-no-events --max-iterations 20 --inplace -av /usr/www/ /var/www/
-
You want to get two directories in synchronous state:
lrsync --delay-sync 3 --delay-collect 3 --delay-collect-bigfile 3 -av /home/dir1 /home/dir2
