rsync+ is ready to go onto HEAD. Could Jos or somebody else who's used the feature before please prepare a few paragraphs for the manpage explaining how they work? Either send a patch to the .yo files or just plain text. Thanks, -- Martin

...ibuted Storage Infrastructure (I2-DSI). As part of that project, the authors created a modified version of rsync (called rsync+) which had the capability of creating these batch sets for mirroring. Here are a couple of URLs describing the ideas and motivation behind it: http://www.ils.unc.edu/i2dsi/unc_rsync+.html http://www.ils.unc.edu/ils/research/reports/TR-1999-01.pdf Chris Shoemaker wrote: > Yes, I think you're right about the original design.

...us_merge" branch. If it works OK and nobody screams I will move it across onto the main tree tomorrow or Wednesday. I see the patch doesn't add documentation about the new options to the man page, so we should fix that in the future. I also looked at the diff from http://www.ils.unc.edu/i2dsi/unc_rsync+.html which seems to be based on an older version of rsync and so generates a pretty noisy diff. Perhaps Bert and Debra could look at the diff below and check that it's not missing anything they think should go in. -- Martin
