In a future release (probably one past 3.0.0) I'm hoping to add a DB accessing protocol that will allow quite a few extended features, including the ability to lookup a file's real size and other info in the DB. This will allow file attributes to be decoupled from the file system, which will support hard-linking files with identical data together even if they don't have the same attributes (and even if they are not in the current transfer's hierarchy), will allow a non-root user to save ownership info, will allow caching of checksums, etc. That would make it easier for a post-processing step to function normally. I'll post my (very) preliminary DB/function design to the list in case you or anyone else would care to comment and/or code. ..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
