you give your command as:
1. you have two lines here - is that how you issue the command?
2. You show two full stops (.). They have a particular meaning in Linux (it means your current directory) so the first line would copy your Home directory (if that's where you are) to the home directory.
I am guessing that your actual command is [code]rsync -v -a --max-size=4GB --delete <home ...
