I used rsync to add books into my Calibre Library directory from another remote folder. But Calibre doesn't automatically "find" them. LibraryMaintenance-CheckLibrary function can find them but can't do anything with them.

Is there some way I can easily identify what books are new inside a calibre library folder, and automatically add them to the library database?

I'm using rsync to sync my calibre libraries on different machines.
