+### Regarding rsync delete
+
+If you choose to delete on sync, rsync will create a 1:1 match. Files will be added, updated *and deleted* from your deploy directory to mirror your local copy.
+
+If you do not choose to delete:
+
+- You can store files beneath your site's deploy directory which aren't found in your local version.
+- Files you have removed from your local site must be removed manually from the server.

+<h3 id="exclude">Excluding files from sync</h3>
+
+If you would like to keep your Octopress files synced but also want the convenience of keeping some files or directories on the server without having to mirror them locally, you can exclude them from rsync.
+
+When syncing, rsync can exclude files or directories locally or on the server. Simply add an `rsync-exclude` file to the root directory of your project like this:
+
+```sh
+some-file.txt
+some-directory/
+*.mp4
+```
+
+Note: using excludes will prevent rsync from uploading local files, or if the delete option is specified, it will prevent rsync from deleting excluded items on the server.
