Hello everyone,
Image you rsynced your mp3 archive. Later you do some cleanup renaming
and start splitting up the directory into a hierarchy and do some file
move around.
Data-wise you did nothing, meta-data-wise you did a lot. --fuzzy comes
into mind for the next rsync. Unfortunately fuzzy match
Hi!
I read the source around find_fuzzy(), but got stuck in get_dirlist(). I
thought the latter returns the subset of the current “global” file list
of the receiver side (which is complete, or an incremental part(?)),
reduced to the “same directory” restriction.
Can someone enlighten me, where th
Hi!
I've noticed that an "rsync -avx . host:/test" tries to descend into a
FUSE filesystem (on the origin/sending side). This is at least true when
the FUSE is mounted by somebody else.
I came accross this while my nightly backup choked on this with
"Permission denied" at the mount point.

Hi!
Does --fuzzy also look for files in dirs mentioned with --...-dest? My
special intrest lies in --link-dest, though.
Thanks,

I found out about "fakeroot" so far. Is there actually a practical use
for the "--super" option? I didn't find anything as fakeroot doesn't
