I've added ODBC database logging to rsync, and was wondering what the procedure is to submit my code changes to be (hopefully) included into the main development branch of rsync. I've added everything in such a way that ODBC database logging is only included with a configure option, and otherwise not compiled in. Is there any interest in ODBC database logging for Rsync? If so should I submit diffs of changed files, and full versions of new files? As for the code itself, I've tested it with postgresql and mysql. It should be compatible with Oracle, Sybase, and DB2 though these databases are completely untested (i.e. I don't have any of these databases). I still need to write some documentation of new run-time config options. Thanks. -Steve Sether

I'd have to be convinced to include it in the main codebase (not for the imminent 2.6.1 release, though), but it could at least be included in the "patches" subdir. ..wayne..
