What happens when you rsync without a destination path?
I copied a file to destination without providing the path. It seems to have copied successfully, but i cant find the file in the destination, where could it be located?
rsync -av --progress file.txt user@host
sending incremental file list
file.txt
1048576000 100% 63.19MB/s 0:00:15 (xfer#1, to-check=0/1)
linux rsync file-copy

You now have a file in your working directory called "user@host
". If you had copied it to a remote location without a path, user@host:
(note colon) would have called it file.txt
in whatever the default location on that server is (likely user
's home directory).
thanks, i got it
