I'm rsyncing a directory on a linux box to a win xp pro with cygwin. Some of the files are always copied, or so it appears by the progress report and the fact that a dot version of the file is created and grows to the full size before completion. Note, the source file is not changing - it is a static file sitting in a directory and is not modified. Nor is the corresponding file in the target directory. The files that are always copied are relatively large - one of them is 1.8 GB.
1) How can I tell if the file is being copied? Is there a way to ask rsync to say "file x copied". 2) How can I diagnose why these few files are being copied, and not others? This is my latest command line: rsync -ae ssh --modify-window=5 --progress --delete --relative --exclude '.snapshot' sunbox:/home/kfelkins /backups As you can see, I've tried the modify-window option. I'm also using archive. Rsync is a great tool. Thanks for your help. -Kelly -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
