sync

sync.py is a simple directory synchronizer. It is almost like «xcopy /s/d» on Windows, except that it also deletes the files on the destination that no longer exist on the source.

It is easy to use, it has a simulation mode to see «what would have been done». It works also on very large trees since it doesn't build any in-memory list of the files. It is meant to work as a backup tool that can be started with a single click, for everyday use.

If sync is too simple for your needs, you should consider Vincent Delft's DirsSync.
