User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5.1i Hi, I recently got caught out by the behaviour in rsync and am not sure if it is a bug or not. I was running rsync like: rsync -avz -e ssh --progress <source> <destination> The source was a directory structure. Partway through the transfer I stopped it with a Ctrl-c. Later I ran the same command again and it completed. <Cut out irrelevant confusion here> I did a checksum on the files in the source and destination directories and the checksums on one of the files was different. I think it was on the file that I stopped rsync on. >From what I read on the manpage, I thought rsync was supposed to create a copy of the the source on the destination. Is this not the case? After testing a bit I found that adding the --checksum option provided the behaviour I needed. Can someone offer some enlightenment? rsync version on source: rsync version 2.5.6 protocol version 26 rsync version on destination: rsync version 2.5.4 protocol version 26 Thanks for a great tool like rsync!
