rsync - Mar 2009 - DO NOT REPLY [Bug 6175] New: write last transfer status when timeout or other error happens

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6175

           Summary: write last transfer status when timeout or other error
                    happens
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.0.5
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned@samba.org
        ReportedBy: arekm@maven.pl
         QAContact: rsync-qa@samba.org


At this moment when timeout happens we get:

sending incremental file list
some.file
Timeout, server not responding.  0:33:43

rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes [sender]: Broken pipe (32)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (99113 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(600) [sender=3.0.5]


I miss last info about tranfer before it failed. For example:

sending incremental file list
some.file
   222804096  40%   94.66kB/s    0:33:42
Timeout, server not responding.  0:33:43

rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes [sender]: Broken pipe (32)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (99113 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(600) [sender=3.0.5]

Note the new "   222804096  40%   94.66kB/s    0:33:42" line.

Right now there is no information when (in terms of % transmitted) it failed
etc.

Ah, that was "rsync -avPc".

Rsync does leave the progress line on the screen, but ssh is printing the
"Timeout, server not responding" message that overwrites it.  Rsync
could
simply reprint the most recent progress line, beginning with \r, just before
reporting loss of the connection.  With no intervening ssh message, this would
back up and overwrite the existing progress line with the same text; with an
intervening message, the output would look like this:

some.file
Timeout, server not responding.  0:33:42
   222804096  40%   94.66kB/s    0:33:42

Wayne, what do you think?

3.1.0 keeps the cursor at the end of the line, so ssh can't overwrite it. 
Is
there something else to fix here?

You're right.  Looking at the 3.1.0 code without realizing that part had
changed from 3.0.5, I wrongly concluded that ssh must have written a \r, which
would be pretty perverse but for which my proposed fix would be appropriate.

So there's nothing to fix here except perhaps to backport the change you
mentioned to the 3.0.x branch.
