[EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |ASSIGNED ------- Comment #4 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-01-29 01:57 MST ------- I know of some users that have used --temp-dir in the past to tell rsync to avoid ever creating a tempory file in the dest-dir itself, so I think that the user should have to ask for a temp file to ever be placed in a destination directory when --temp-dir is in effect. One way to do this that already works is to use the --delay-updates option. This makes all the updates happen in rapid succession at the end of the transfer, so any copying that is done from the --temp-dir is done into the active partial-file subdir (default: .~tmp~). Another possibility is to use the --partial-dir option that can already be used to tell rsync that a partial file should be placed in a subdir of the destination dir. If we enhance robust_rename() a little, it could be made to perform the copy to the file inside the partial-dir, and the code could rename it from there to the parent dir. -- 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
