Yes. I think that is the most flexible way to go and that is what the current CVS code is doing. > Is there much performance impact specifying --excludes when they won't > be used? No, the receiving side (which is what the batch-reading process is) would not even notice that the list was there unless it ran a --delete without --delete-excluded. So, my latest code includes the exclude list in the BATCH.sh file anytime it was specified, even if it might not be needed. This will allow a user to add a --delete into the BATCH.sh file after the fact or even to edit the list. I think this implementation makes it easy to re-run the batch (since no data outside the BATCH.sh and BATCH files is needed) while still being flexible for "power users" that want to tweak things. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
