Wayne, I have redone get_local_name again (patch attached), this time to enable rsync to remove a file to make way for a destination directory; this resolves the "surprise" noted in David Tonhofer's diagram 2. I also made it obey --keep-dirlinks when looking for a destination directory and made various rearrangements. Tell me what you think, and if you decide to commit my code, please double-check it first. -- Matt McCutchen hashproduct@verizon.net http://hashproduct.metaesthetics.net/ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
