Is there a way for me to rsync two directories comparing only filenames (and not file size, date modified, or any other criteria)?

From the rsync(1) man page:

        --ignore-existing       skip updating files that exist on receiver

  • Really speeds things up when syncing large files from or to an underpowered machine (as fingerprinting is pretty computational heavy).
