------- Comment #4 from m...@mattmccutchen.net 2008-12-23 14:32 CST ------- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. It's not unusual that someone proposes a new option and I suggest an alternative approach; the argument they then have to make is that the implementation in rsync would be superior enough to the alternative to justify the added complexity. You haven't made such an argument, aside from "it would be convenient if rsync handled this so I don't have to use a separate tool for that part of the job", which applies to every feature request. > If you want people to use rsync on common directory workloads, then such a > proposal is not far fetched. I don't recall anyone else raising the case of renames at the same time as small data changes. If you have evidence that this is common, please present it. Otherwise, this is just one of several use cases that rsync could optimize but doesn't; for example, see bug 5482. -- 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.
