Hi All, I am aware that rsync can be run to just list the files that have changed between the source and destination. I would like to capitalize on that feature to monitor some development that is going on in order to get a complete list of files that have been changed on a server. I realize

Bug? backup_dir sometimes reported on STDOUT, sometimes not.

Running rsync 3.0.6 on OS X 10.5.7 (on a MacBook Pro) and using the -b flag (and -v --verbose), the "backup_dir" is reported in the output, but sometimes on STDOUT and sometimes somewhere else. Note that the rsync daemon running on the "server" is 2.6.9 (on another MacBook Pro, OS X 10.5

what happens with .~tmp~ after an interruption?

are partial files always deleted on interruption?

2009-07-03 Thread Carlos Carvalho
The manual says that a file being transfered is removed if rsync gets an interruption and --partial is not used or implied by other options like partial-dir or delay-updates. However I've found that a file was left after interruption, with a zero size. Would it be possible that rsync doesn't delete
