Dear rsync community, I hope that someone can help me with this issue, probably related to my lack of understanding of how rsync recursive works. In the output was displayed something like this (I don't remember in the lines below whether rsync was deleting or creating files or both, but I think this won't matter): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- A/B/...
A/file1 A/B/... --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- In other words, the recursion did not happen linearly (according to the tree structure of either the sender or the receiver). This is very counter-intuitive: I'd expect that every line which lies between any two lines of the form "A/B/..." would also have to start by "A/B/..." Can someone explain this, please? I would be most grateful for any clarification. Many thanks in advance for your invaluable help. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
