Bug ID: 11671
Summary: --files-from= with nonexistant files and
--delete-missing-args complains about vanished source
files
Product: rsync
Version: 3.1.1
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: core
Assignee: way...@samba.org
Reporter: vegard.nos...@gmail.com
QA Contact: rsync...@samba.org
Problem:
rsync seems to indicate that files have disappeared during the transfer when
this is not the case.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create files.txt with "foo/bar". (Make sure "foo/" doesn't exist.)
2. Run: rsync --delete-missing-args -v --files-from=files.txt . remote-host:
Output:
building file list ...
file has vanished: "/home/vegard/foo"
done
default_perms_for_dir: sys_acl_get_file(foo, ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT): No such file or
directory, falling back on umask
sent 30 bytes received 129 bytes 45.43 bytes/sec
total size is 0 speedup is 0.00
rsync warning: some files vanished before they could be transferred (code 24)
at main.c(1183) [sender=3.1.0]
Expected behaviour:
With --delete-missing-args I would expect nonexistant files (and files in
nonexistant directories) to be deleted on the remote host without any warnings
or error codes.
Workaround:
Check for exit code 24 and ignore it. (But this has the drawback of potentially
ignoring warnings about files which really did disappear after rsync had been
started.)
