Summary: Rsync --remove-source-files Rule Filters Enhancement
Product: rsync
Version: 3.1.0
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: core
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
QAContact: [email protected]
A suggested enhancement is to allow sender-side protection rule filters to
prevent/allow deletion of files. Currently there are receiver side protection
rules but none for senders.
Suppose a user wants transfer file A and file B using rsync. After the transfer
file B on the sender side is desired to be deleted by using the
--remove-source-files option. However currently there doesn't seem to be a way
to protect file A from being deleted if both file A and B are included in the
same rsync call.
The user could separate the single rsync call into two rsync calls, one with
and one without the --remove-source-files option.
If this sender-side functionality already exists then please disregard.
