sync task to ignore destination files

           Summary: sync task to ignore destination files
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.6Alpha (nightly)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: sign_up@brondsema.net


Using <fileset>, source files and directories can be excluded from the sync. 
However, it would be very useful to ignore files and directories from the
destination.

For example, I have a subdirectory 'xdocs' in my destination directory that has
lots of files in it and my source directory doesn't have 'xdocs'.  When I do a
<sync>, 'xdocs' is deleted.  I want to ignore 'xdocs' and just synchronize
everything else.
