Summary: rsync should refuse -B values larger than the maximum block size Product: rsync Version: 3.0.7 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 Component: core AssignedTo: way...@samba.org ReportedBy: informati...@numerigraphe.com QAContact: rsync...@samba.org The maximum value for -B does not seem to be enforced when parsing the command-line options: it will happily start working with larger values, often to fail with a protocol error after some blocks are transfered. The maximum value (2^17 if I'm not mistaken) should be enforced and reported to the user, all the more as it is mostly undocumented.
