rsync - Jul 2009 - DO NOT REPLY [Bug 6543] New: when crashing, announce the last file that was correctly copied

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6543

           Summary: when crashing, announce the last file that was correctly
                    copied
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.0.6
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned@samba.org
        ReportedBy: Dave@Yost.com
         QAContact: rsync-qa@samba.org


If rsync for some reason doesn't complete, it should output the path of the
last file that was correctly transferred.

This will help with workarounds and perhaps also with bug reports.

isn`t using "-v" sufficient here ? or using the logging features? if
that`s too
much output, you could combine that with "tail -n ###".

there are several options for NOT completing: maybe it unexpectedly hangs,
maybe it crashes. 

so, how should rsync print only the "last" correctly transferred file,
if it
doesn`t know that it hangs or that it crashed ?

I mean that when it crashes and gives a source filename and line number, it
should also report the last successful file transfer. With or without -v.

I mean that when it prints a crash message giving file name and line number, it
should also give this information, with or without -v.
