I want to copy files from a directory to a thumb drive. This seems easiest since I want to use the modified flag. hence.

rsync -av /directory_1 /usb/

The problem is that if I run it again, it copies all the files over again. Doesn't it reset the archive flag, or am I still stuck back in DOS days?
