The rsync process remains running until explicitly 'kill'ed. At which point, the following is printed: -- quote -- rsync error: received SIGUSR1 or SIGINT (code 20) at rsync.c(225) -- endquote -- -- quote -- $ rsync -aHPv /path/to/single.file . building file list ... done rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (8 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(342) -- endquote -- rsync 2.6.0 transfers the file with no errors when called as above. I realize it's silly to attempt preserving hardlinks when transferring a single file, btw. This behaviour manifested when I was testing some scripts using '-aHPv' as the default options. Test machines: slackware 8.1 & 9.1, stock build chain for each.
