Hi, debian-9, rsync-3.1.2 (both ends)
I have a task that rsyncs files from a list of candidate files (--files-from=). It's verbose (-v) and its stdout is captured to a file which is then sent to the receiving host. The captured verbose output is examined on the receiving host to know which files were actually copied so that notification emails can be sent to various people. The problem is that, sometimes, not all copied files are listed in the verbose output, and so some notification emails don't get sent out. At first, I thought there was something wrong with the notification emails not arriving, but the files in question, that had definitely been copied, did not appear in any of the captured verbose output files. This seems like an impossible bug but it really seems to be happening. Has anyone else encountered behaviour like this? I didn't have much luck searching the internet for it. It would probably be hard to notice if the verbose output wasn't being used for something like triggering notifications whose absence might be noticed. cheers, raf -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
