Summary: rsync in dry run reports it will create a backup dir
even though it already exists
Product: rsync
Version: 3.1.0
Platform: x86
OS/Version: Mac OS X
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: core
AssignedTo: way...@samba.org
ReportedBy: chd...@gmail.com
QAContact: rsync...@samba.org
On OSX 10.8.5, rsync 3.1.0 introduces a new bug. Doing:
rsync -ntrlvhb --delete --backup-dir=foo source dest
when the dir "foo" already exists will cause rsync to display:
"sending incremental file list
Created backup_dir foo/"
I can understand displaying this message if foo really did need to be created,
but it's already there and waiting, and has been used as backup-dir before.
3.0.9 and earlier don't do this.
Also, when the same command is run without the '-n' flag, rsync acts correctly
and won't display the "Created backup_dir foo/" message.
