Are there any known issues compiling the latest rsync on OSX (10.4)?
I've noticed some references to one or two patches, but I'm not sure
what
they are. I compiled v2.6.8 some time back on a powerpc, with no
patches,
and it seemed to work OK. I saw nothing in the INSTALL file that

I see that rsync will eventually support extended attributes, which
will be great.
But: will it allow backup from a file system that supports xattrs, to
one that does not?
For this to work, rsync would have to represent the xattrs on the
destination machine
in some special format, I suppose,
sting.
Any feedback is appreciated.

There is a third way:
Simply keep all the files you want backed up in a UFS formatted
partition
on the mac. This way, all the metadata for file foo is in the
file ._foo,
and rsync backs these up perfectly, and all the data and metadata can
also be accessed vi NFS.
Restoring is a bit of a p
I'm glad to see rsync may finally be getting proper support for
extended attributes
on OSX (since apple's own implementation of this is notoriously buggy).
I'm wondering, though: does the xattr code avoid copying, or even
comparing
hashes of, the xattr data itself? Especially on OSX there ca
Hi,
I'd like to make a "feature request" for users of rsync on Mac OSX
Tiger (10.4)
Given the current sorry state of backup tools on Mac OSX, the only
way I've found to reliably backup data from Mac OSX is to keep the data
on a UFS volume, and to then backup it up using *standard* rsync (no -
Is this a known issue?
rsync does not always preserve dates and permissions on symbolic links,
and while the -i option indicates it is trying to bring things in
sync, it does not.
Maybe between OS's that have sufficiently different implementations,
this is not possible.

Hi,
I'm using rsync to copy and sync a directory of about 25,000 files
across two machines.
I used rsync to make an initial copy, from machine 1 to machine 2,
and then syncing back incremental changes from machine 2 to machine 1.
On the initial copy from machione 1 to machine 2, I found that a
