How to skip existing file when download using wget

Wget command will not overwrite existing files by-default. Instead of that it will download the same file to another name.

But there is an option to skip the download if the file is existing.

#wget -N url

Where url need to be replaced with the corresponding link.

Here the option "-N" don't re-retrieve files unless newer than local.

That's all…
