Package: rsync
Version: 3.0.0-2
Severity: normal
The manpage is inconsistent about the default options for --delete:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
--delete delete extraneous files from dest dirs
--delete-before receiver deletes before transfer
(default)
------------------------------------------------------------------
And later:
------------------------------------------------------------------
Because of this, the default delete mode when you specify
--delete is now --delete-during when both ends of the connection
are at least 3.0.0
------------------------------------------------------------------
The bad thing is, that the wrong information (the one about --delete-before)
comes first.
