A Plea. Deanna and I (Your Older Geeks) have been running OlderGeeks.com since 2008 and lately we are seeing a major increase in usage (and cost) but a big decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring in. Please donate on the website today. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much. -D&R Always scroll to the bottom of the page for the main download link. We don't believe in fake/misleading download buttons and tricks. The link is always in the same place. Mirror v1.5.0 Mirror copies a directory to another location. If the destination directory already exists, Mirror only copies the files that have been added, modified, or deleted compared to the source directory. Mirror is especially adapted to frequent backups. Compared to a classical directory copy, it saves time by only copying new or modified files. Moreover, when Mirror detects that a file is no more present in the source directory, it deletes it from the destination directory too. This saves disk space if you rename or move files. Mirror is a command line tool, without graphical interface. It can be easily used in scripts and BATCH files. How to install Mirror? ---------------------- Choose the EXE file matching your Windows version: - 64-bit: take Mirror64.exe; - 32-bit Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista/7/8: take MirrorNT.exe; - 32-bit Windows 95/98/ME: take Mirror9x.exe. Copy the file to C:\Windows for Mirror to be accessible without having to specify its full path. You can then launch Mirror from a console box. You can rename the file MirrorXX.exe you have chosen to Mirror.exe or any other name. How do I use Mirror? -------------------- Typical use: C:\MyFiles is the source directory E:\Backup\MyFiles is the destination directory Ensure the destination directory E:\Backup\MyFiles exists, by creating it if necessary. Mirror does not create the destination directory automatically to avoid mistakes. Then, open a console box (command.com ou cmd.exe) and type: mirror.exe C:\MyFiles E:\Backup\MyFiles You can automate the full procedure by creating a BATCH file (.bat extension) containing those two lines: @echo off mirror.exe C:\MyFiles E:\Backup\MyFiles Why has Mirror problems with modification times? ------------------------------------------------ When using Mirror with the source directory in a NTFS partition and the destination directory in a FAT16 or FAT32 partition, time precision issues may occur. Modification times in FAT partitions are rounded to the nearest 2 seconds, while modification times in NTFS partitions are very precise (100 nanoseconds). This limitation explains why files you just mirrored may not have exactly the same modification time. By default, Mirror tries to avoid time precision problems by considering that modification times having a difference less than 5 seconds as equal. You can adjust this precision with the --time-precision option. Moreover, FAT partitions modification times are local: they take into account the timezone and the daylight saving time. Mirror converts FAT modification times to universal time (UTC) before comparing times, supposing that the FAT partition has the same timezone as your PC. This is sufficient in most cases, but not if you change your timezone in Windows settings, or if you use external drives coming from a foreign country together with your own local drives. If default settings don't work for you, you have two options: - Enable --log-time-diff option to print time difference, then set options --time-shift and --time-precision accordingly. - Use the --time-compare-contents option to compare files contents when they have different modification times. This will be safer than the option above, and still faster than rewriting all files. Both methods will update the modification time of all destination files, including the ones which have not been updated. What are Mirror options? ------------------------ Launch the program without any argument to display the full help. Usage: mirror Mirrors copies and/or deletes files in the destination directory to make it identical to the source directory. Mirror considers all files and sub-directories of the source and destination directories, recursively unless --no-recurse is set. With at least one --include or --exclude set, Mirror considers only the files that either match at least one pattern (--include) or match none of them (--exclude), ignoring all other files or directories as if they did not exist. When ignoring a directory, Mirror always ignores all its files and sub-directories recursively, even if some of them match an --include pattern. By default, compares files by size and modification time to determine whether to update the file in the destination directory. See below for how to change that behavior. If no --exclude nor --include option is specified, examines all files. Returns 0 on success, 1 on error. Options: --help, -h, -?, /? Display this help. -x=<pattern>, --exclude=<pattern> Ignore the files and directories whose full path matches the pattern. Cannot be used with --include options. Specify the option multiple times to exclude multiple patterns. The pattern can use wildcards: `?' matches exactly one character; `*' matches any number of characters, possibly none. Examples: *.txt, *\.git, *.i?? Enclose the whole option in quotes if it contains spaces. -i=<pattern>, --include=<pattern> Ignores all files and directories but those whole full path matches the pattern. Cannot be used with --exclude options. Specify the option multiple times to include multiple patterns. See --exclude above for details. -v, --virtual Virtual mode, aka dry run: do not alter any file, only read files and print logging information. -ua, --unset-archive Unset the archive attribute of mirrored files in the source directory. -nr, --no-recurse Do not recurse in subdirectories. -nj, --no-junctions Do not recurse in junction directories. -nd, --no-delete Never delete files from the destination directory, even if they are not found in the source directory. -na, --no-add Never add files to the destination directory, even if they are found in the source directory and missing in the destination directory. -nu, --no-update Never update files to the destination directory, even if they are found in the source directory and different. -nm, --no-meta Do not update file metadata in the destination directory when it is the only difference: attributes, last modification time, filename case. -ct[=y/n], --compare-time[=y/n], enabled by default Take modification time into account to compare files. -cs[=y/n], --compare-size[=y/n], enabled by default Take file size into account to compare files. -ca[=y/n], --compare-archive[=y/n] Take archive attributes into account to compare files. Files in source directory with the archive attribute set are considered as different from the matching file in the destination directory. -cc[=y/n], --compare-contents[=y/n] Compare the files contents byte per byte. Slow but accurate. -tcc[=y/n], --time-compare-contents[=y/n] If the files don't have the same modification time, compare them in the same way as --compare-contents above and do not take the modification times into account. -fsf[=y/n], --time-shift-fat[=y/n], enabled by default Convert FAT files times from local to system time before comparing them, to avoid daylight saving time problems. -tp[=number], --time-precision[=number], 5 by default Precision for time comparison, in seconds. Useful to solve FAT time issues. -ts[=number], --time-shift[=number], 0 by default The time shift to apply to destination files, in seconds. Can be negative. Useful to solve FAT time issues. -tm[=y/n], --time-meta[=y/n] Mirror last modification times as part of file metadata updates. -lh[=y/n], --log-header[=y/n], enabled by default Display the mirroring header, indicating the mirrored directories. -lc[=y/n], --log-changes[=y/n], enabled by default Log all file changes: files copied, updated, or deleted. -le[=y/n], --log-equal[=y/n] Log identical files (thus not altered). -li[=y/n], --log-ignored[=y/n] Log files ignored due to --no-delete, --no-add, or --no-update. -lcc[=y/n], --log-compare-contents[=y/n], enabled by default Display file names when they are compared byte per byte. -ltd[=y/n], --log-time-diff[=y/n] Display modification time difference of compared files, taking into account all time shifting options. -lm[=y/n], --log-meta[=y/n], enabled by default Log files having their meta information updated: attributes, modification time, file name case. -ld[=y/n], --log-directories[=y/n] Display directories name when they are analyzed. -ll[=y/n], --log-list[=y/n] Display only the list of affected files, without operation names and directory headers. -lo[=y/n], --log-oem[=y/n], enabled by default Output filenames using OEM (DOS) charset. Disable this option if you plan to use the log results in a Win32 script or program.  Continue below for the main download link. |
