Rsync copy directory contents but not directory itself

Question

I\'m trying to synchronize two contents of folders with different name:

rsync -av ~/foo user@remote.com:/var/www/bar

I\'d like to copy the cont

Answer 1

It's simple,

rsync /var/www/ /home/var - copies the contents of /var/www/ but not the www folder itself.

rsync /var/www /home/var - copies the folder www along with all its contents.

The "/" makes the difference.
