No, -n works fine w/o -v, as it shows you exactly what would be output by the command if -n were not specified. This is a fix over earlier versions. > This of course adds text to the output so that instead of a nice > clean list of files that would be slated for transfer [...] I don't know what you were seeing, because the old implying of the -v option by -n behaves exactly the same as if -v were manually specified, and that includes the outputting of headers and footers. If you want to only get names w/o other verbose output, you can always use --out-format='%n%L' explicitly (which is part of what is implied by -v), and rsync will output the names w/o other verbosity. You could alternately use -i, which will output what is changing prior to the names (using a cryptic character matrix), which allows you to see the changes in attributes, as well as the files that will be transferred. ..wayne.. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
