Hi
While trying to back up my homedir, i found what looks like a bug:
from /home, i do:
rsync -CWavP --delete --delete-excluded \
--exclude=".phoenix/default/*/Cache/" \
--exclude-from=rsync-excludes \
myusername/ targetserver:/backup/myusername/
rsync-excludes contains (without [] lines):
[start]
#comment
**.xvpics**
*.swp
[end]
This works as expected, the phoenix cache dir is excluded, xvpics and .swp
files as well. Now, if i try the the same except the .phoenix stuff moved
to the exclude file:
rsync -CWavP --delete --delete-excluded \
--exclude-from=rsync-excludes \
myusername/ targetserver:/backup/roth/
rsync-excludes now contains (again without []):
[start]
#comment
.phoenix/default/*/Cache/
**.xvpics**
*.swp
[end]
This way, the phoenix cache dir gets transfered. The other two excludes still
work fine.
rsync version is: rsync version 2.6.2 protocol version 28
I can provide more details if needed.
greets, t.
