Habit. When specifying directories, and wanting to absolutely ensure it’s a directory, I use /. on the end. >> Indeed, openrsync on OpenBSD (7.6 and 7.6) don’t have a “—dirs” option, >> which seems to only be used with the -r option. > > You mean 7.6 and 7.7. I guess. Yes, I meant both 7.6 and 7.7 >> Seems odd that openrsync (on Apple) -> openrsync (on OpenBSD) wouldn’t work, >> but who knows what Apple has done to this under the hood > > Apparently, the apple (open)rsync has a -d (--dirs) option, > so it's not the OpenBSD openrsync. Yes, clearly, despite the man page calming this is openrsync written by krist...@bsd.lv <mailto:krist...@bsd.lv>. . . FYI, for the archives: using “--delete” also tries to invoke on the remote end “--delete-after” which doesn’t exist. My shell script wrapper now changes --delete-after to --delete as well as removing --dirs Sean
