Bug ID: 11423
Summary: rsync 3.1.x is creating empty backup directories
Product: rsync
Version: 3.1.1
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P5
Component: core
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
QA Contact: [email protected]
Running the command
$ rsync -a --delete --backup --backup-dir=../old source/ dest/
with version 3.1.0 gives the output
Created backup_dir ../old/
even when no files are copied to the backup directory. I usually add the
current time to the backup directory name, which means I end up with many empty
directories. With version 3.0.9 of rsync, a backup directory was only created
if needed.
