You cannot exclude specific file with rm command.

What does it mean "file move to destination somewhere"? How do you do that?

Ok, I see thank you for your reply.
but if I want to clear all file at the destination directory before I put
instead of "rm" command.
what is the best way to do ?

I'm not sure I understand what you ask for.

To delete all files in remote directory, use rm *

But you know that already.
