Resume wget after canceled

I am coping a website and ^c canceled it and if I resume, it does the entire thing over again but does not copy it over because of the exiing dirs. I would like to resume the wget -r copy and ignore all of the already downloaded sites.

You can pass the --continue flag to Wget to ask it to resume the existing download.



However, even in this scenario, Wget will still parse the pages and send a HEAD request for each file. It is not possible to avoid this due to various reasons that I outlined in this post on StackOverflow.
