So you can run rsync *once* and have a mapping table?

But can you rename subfolders?  I know you can have a different path on

multiple is less painful.

Sure.  I just  meant that in thinking about what we do now and what we
might do, it is good to look at everything similar to see what they do,
and perhaps get a clue about how the mechanisms have worked well or not,
as predicting the unintended consequences is always tricky.
