           Summary: Request: timestamps in --log-format
           Product: rsync
           Version: 2.6.7
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
         QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


It will be very helpful to have the ability to include information about the
modification time of the files. This will help in (1) creating customized
update file list (for --files-from) (2) for logging. Something like '%M'. Any
datetime format will work (either the Unix, or the standard YYYYMMDDTHHMMSS).

The problem that I'm trying to address is the maintainance of a backup site in
a high-traffic environment. The update should handle high priority files first
(priority is based on file age (recent changes first), file size (small changes
first), and file name/type (for example: PDF files last).

If the information about the source files is available, one can use "rsync -n"
to get the list of files, implement a custom sort/filter, and feed the list to
rsync --from-file session.

Extra points for showing the comparable time on the recieving side (if the file
exists), and for option to show the file owner (id/name)
