I noticed in looking at download dirs for a project, that
another mirror had "crept-in" for usage (where different mirrors
are stored under mirror-URL names). To copy over the diffs,
normally I'd do:
rsync -uav dir1/. dir2/.
(where dir1="the new mirror that I'd switched
to by accident, and dir2=

If you are doing a local<-> local transfer, you are wasting time
with checksums. You'll get faster performance with "--whole-file".
Why do you stop it at night when you could 'unlimit' the transfer speed?
Seems like when you aren't there would be best time to copy everything.

Hi,
the man page states
For systems that support extended-attribute namespaces, a copy being
done by a super-user copies all namespaces except system.*.
That's the reason why NFAv4 ACLs are not copied as they are in the
system.

It seems that pv is waiting for data from rsync, and rsync is waiting for data
too (stuck in select()) and not closing the input to pv. So it's a deadlock.
Same happens when you substitute pv with something else (like dd). It seems
that those commands just do
