Summary: --rsh option incorrectly interprets quotes Product: rsync Version: 2.6.6 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: core AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Using rsync -e 'ssh -i "/some directory with spaces/identity"' causes rsync to try to execute ssh like: execve("/usr/bin/ssh", ["ssh", "-i", "\"/some directory with spaces/identity\"", ...]) Which of course fails, because the quotes were to delimit the argument, not part of the filename. This makes it more difficult to use options with spaces and is inconsistant with the --rsync-path option, which uses sh to interpret the command. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
