There's some interest in using rsnapshot-copy for incremental mirroring, but it is not currently designed to do that. See https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg\_name=1208090388.2278.72.camel%40localhost .
To support incremental mirroring, rsnapshot-copy would need to match up snapshots by mtime and rearrange the destination snapshots into the right sequence before proceeding; that is a bit of a pain and can't be done if the destination is on an rsync daemon. It may be better to first change rsnapshot to avoid renaming the snapshot dirs (artifact #2901710).
