[rdiff-backup-users] Using rdiff-backup for syncing files from a test server to a production server

[Brandon Simmons]

Hello,

I would like to be able to make modifications to server config files
on my test server, and then be able to send them to the production
server using rdiff-backup. I only want to copy over a few files
explicitly, for example when I create a new init script, I would add
it to my list of "includes".

The trouble I am having is in trying to figure out how to initialize
this setup. It seems that if I use '--force' for the initial
rdiff-backup, that it clobbers all the files on the production server.
I hope it's clear what I'm trying to do, and thanks for any clues.

Brandon
