------- Comment #2 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-09-20 11:41 CST ------- Hi, seems like you're right. Sorry for bothering you :-) On the other hand, the manpage says: "a â*â matches any non-empty path component (it stops at slashes)." Although '*' seems to match non-empty and empty(!) filename components. Eg: 'foo*' matches the file foo and foobar. ~$ mkdir test-src test-dest; touch test-src/foo test-src/foobar ~$ rsync -av --exclude 'foo*' test-src/ test-dest building file list ... done sent 74 bytes received 20 bytes 188.00 bytes/sec total size is 0 speedup is 0.00 I've tested this on rsync 2.6.9 and 3.0.3. Isn't this a mistake in the manpage then? -- 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. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
