Hi list,
Sorry for the exclude question... but I have been trying for hours
to get this to work and am utterly baffled.
I'm performing an archive transfer between hosts and wish to include
anything in any directory named 'debug' or 'drpms' at any depth. I
assumed this would be as simple as --exclude 'debug/***' --exclude
'drpms/***' but I still get files retrieved.
Full option list is:
rsync -aHi --no-o --delay-updates --delete --delete-excluded --
delete-after --exclude 'drpms/***' --exclude 'debug/***' host1::foo/
bar/ /local/bar
... and files like these are still retrieved:
.d..t.... debug/
>f+++++++ debug/AGReader-debuginfo-1.2-5.fc10.x86_64.rpm
I've tried many many alternative exclude patterns, tried increasing
the debugging level to try and work out how they're still matched
and I haven't had any success. Any help very much appreciated.
Please include me on any replies as I'm not subscribed to this list.
Regards,
Tom
Sorry to pick this up again - wondering if anyone has any ideas or can
suggest a way to debug this problem? No one on the #rsync IRC channel
is able to explain this either...
