    I'm taking regular backups over the internet by using SSH+Rsync where the source files/directories are moved or renamed quite often and I didn't find any ultimate solution to avoid retransferring of the moved directories, so eventually I made a Python+Bash script which is also meant to be executed before the actual Rsync. I used this: http://www.pkrc.net/detect-inode-moves.html as a baseline, but I did some significant changes and improvements to that. You can find my scripts from here: https://github.com/wapsi/smart-rsync-backup That works for me very well. But of course, it's optimized for my needs and it tracks unique inode numbers of the files to detect the actual moves so there are most probably circumstances where that approach does not work at all.
