Correct, that's currently a limitation in rsync. It would make sense to allow it, since the protocol can already handle compression being enabled and the sender deciding to send a file with no compression. So, adding a command-line option shouldn't be hard, but I haven't checked into it yet. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
