Summary: Preallocate option doesn't work with recursive? Product: rsync Version: 3.1.0 Platform: x64 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: core AssignedTo: way...@samba.org ReportedBy: wgordonhar...@gmail.com QAContact: rsync...@samba.org With rsync version 3.1.0dev protocol version 31.PR14, using the --preallocate and --recursive options: It appears as though preallocation only happens with files in the first directory copied. In subsequent directories, rsync seems to revert to stock behavior, i.e. no preallocation. Command line used: rsync --links --perms --times --group --owner --devices --specials --stats --progress --verbose --preallocate --recursive --include=*/ --include=* --exclude=* /mnt/media/Music/ /mnt/medianew/Music -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
