rsync_parallel.sh
#!/bin/bash
set -e
# Usage:
# rsync_parallel.sh [--parallel=N] [rsync args...]
#
# Options:
# --parallel=N Use N parallel processes for transfer. Defaults is the number of processors.
#
# Notes:
# * Requires GNU Parallel
# * Use with ssh-keys. Lots of password prompts will get very annoying.
# * Does an itemize-changes first, then chunks the resulting file list and launches N parallel
# rsyncs to transfer a chunk each.
# * be a little careful with the options you pass through to rsync. Normal ones will work, you
# might want to test weird options upfront.
