+Usage: atomic-rsync [RSYNC-OPTIONS] [HOST:]/SOURCE/DIR/ /DEST/DIR/
+ atomic-rsync [RSYNC-OPTIONS] HOST::MOD/DIR/ /DEST/DIR/
+
+This script lets you update a hierarchy of files in an atomic way by first
+creating a new hierarchy (using hard-links to leverage the existing files),
+and then swapping the new hierarchy into place. You must be pulling files
+to a local directory, and that directory must already exist. For example:
+
+ mkdir /local/files-1
+ ln -s files-1 /local/files
+ atomic-rsync -aiv host:/remote/files/ /local/files/
+
+If /local/files is a symlink to a directory that ends in -1 or -2, the copy
+will go to the alternate suffix and the symlink will be changed to point to
+the new dir. This is a fully atomic update. If the destination is not a
+symlink (or not a symlink to a *-1 or a *-2 directory), this will instead
+create a directory with "~new~" suffixed, move the current directory to a
+name with "~old~" suffixed, and then move the ~new~ directory to the original
+destination name (this double rename is not fully atomic, but is rapid). In
+both cases, the prior destintaion directory will be preserved until the next
+update, at which point it will be deleted.
+
+By default, rsync exit-code 24 (file vanished) is allowed without halting the
+atomic update. If you want to change that, specify the environment variable
+ATOMIC_RSYNC_OK_CODES with numeric values separated by spaces and/or commas.
+Specify an empty string to only allow a successful copy. An override example:
+
+ ATOMIC_RSYNC_OK_CODES='23 24' atomic-rsync -aiv host:src/ dest/
+
+See the errcode.h file for a list of all the exit codes.
+
+See the "rsync" command for its list of options. You may not use the
+--link-dest, --compare-dest, or --copy-dest options (since this script
+uses --link-dest to make the transfer efficient).
