rsync - Jan 2005 - rsync-ing on MacOS X.

Hi all,
I'm setting up a backup script for my Mac, and I'm wondering about the 
rsync ability of dealing with HFS+ filesystem (resource-fork and 
such...). I've searched the mailing list archive for this topic and 
I've found some thread regarding it, but it's not clear to me what is 
the actual situation. Is the HFS+ officially supported? Will it be in 
the near future?

Thanks in advance,
   Andrea.

There exists an rsync version which support HFS+ resource forks, RsyncX 
1). If you are using rsync for backup on OS X, I reccommend to check 
out rsyncbackup 2).
