similar to: [Patch] Require extra --stats to emit heap statistics

Unless you suppress all output with the -q option, rsync will always print an initial "building/receiving file list ... done" line. In my opinion, this is a bit superfluous. When I want to see a progress indication, I can use the --progress option. Another issue is the 3-line transfer speed and speedup factor report at the end. So every rsync invocation produces at least four lines of

Hello, I have written a little script that's would email me all errors. rsync -vah --delete --stats <sources> <destination> > /var/log/sauvegarde/listoffile.log 2> /var/log/sauvegarde/errors.log My problem is i want to have the stats in my mail. Is it possible to redirect --stats to STDERR. I have tryed to do this : /---

The attached patch makes two changes to the behavior of the -v option: 1) The initial "building file list ... done" and the last two lines with transfer statistics are moved to verbose level 2, which means that you have to specify -vv to see them. When I use -v, I only want to see which files are being updated. Perhaps the statistics could be controlled by a separate option,

It would be nice if there were a flag which would have rsync behave like a single -v but which would skip the two line summary info. I do a lot of cron-based transfers and I want to see what gets transferred if anything does, but I'd like it to be entirely silent otherwise. Here is a patch which makes a single -v behave this way. -vv causes it to include the extra info. diff -r -X

Updated to current cvs without the --exclude-from - patch. This patch allows specifying a --link-dest path similar to --compare-dest except that unchanged files are hard-linked to the --link-dest path instead of producing a sparse tree. -- ________________________________________________________________ J.W.

Hi, I needed to filter content of files (encrypt), before they are sent over the network to backup server. The easiest way to do this was modifying Kyle Jones's "--dest-filter" patch. Somebody was asking there this feature in the past, so I'm sending this patch to list. Implementation details: -filtering disables rsync alogrithm -source filter makes temporary files in /tmp

Please CC me. I'm not subscribed. Attached is a patch against 2.5.4pre1 CVS current to add the --link-dest option so rsync will create hardlinks for unchanged regular files to a directory on the destination. This is like --compare-dest except that the result is not a sparse tree. Also included is extension to --(ex|in)clude-from to allow - for stdin. Could one of the maintainers please add

Hi, I don't want to start another --files-from war, but I am attaching an updated version of my patch to allow you to specify a list of files to transfer. The normal rsync syntax allows you to specify a list of SRC files to transfer on the command line. This patch adds some new options to allow you to instead supply a file that contains a list of files to transfer. The previous version of

Hi, One feature missing from rsync, and requested on this list before, is on-the-fly conversion of filename character encoding. For example, I often need to sync files having Hebrew filenames from a UTF-8 system (Linux) to an ISO8859-8 system (Cygwin on Windows 2000 using the non-Unicode Win32 interface). Other circumstances surely abound. Attached is a patch against rsync 2.6.2 that adds an

This patch adds the --link-by-hash=DIR option, which hard links received files in a link farm arranged by MD4 file hash. The result is that the system will only store one copy of the unique contents of each file, regardless of the file's name. (rev 4) * Updated for committed robust_rename() patch, other changes in CVS. (rev 3) * Don't link empty files. * Roll over to new file when

I posted a patch a few days ago that adds copying of atime. At that time, it was just enabled with -t/--times. After some time, we have figured out that that choice might not have been the best. Here's a new version of the patch (relative to CVS) that adds -A/--copy-atime instead. It also includes a test case. Any feedback on this patch and/or the previous one that I posted?

I have added regular expression support using a POSIX implementation. The patch (against 2.5.5) is attached. The implementation is simple and follows the same mechanism that is implemented for normal searches. I added these command line arguments: --rexclude=PATTERN exclude files matching regexp PATTERN --rexclude-from=FILE exclude regexp patterns listed in FILE --rinclude=PATTERN

I'd like to know if there's any support for changing the behavior of the -P and --progress options to increase the verbosity of the rsync command. Without -v, -P and --progress don't provide clear output: -v displays the current filename and -P and --progress display the progress of the current transfer. It's important that these two pieces of information work together since -P

hi. return value of close() (receiver.c) is ignored. when running out of quota on NFS (for example), this can happen (without the patch): output file(s) is/are truncated to 0 bytes and rsync reports success. with the fix, this happens: close "/home/luser/.test.mp3.PwaG50": Disc quota exceeded rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at receiver.c(464) ... ...and additionally, test.mp3

Hi folks, we would like your feedback on a new option we have implemented. We would like to know whether it should be merged into the CVS tree. Perhaps one of the rsync developers can have a look at the code, improve it where necessary, and committ it to CVS. The name of the option is "--delete-mdays=DAYS" and it works in conjunction with the option "--delete." It modifies

Included below is a shar archive containing two patches that together: 1) make backup files get their setuid and setgid bits stripped by default 2) add a "-s" option that allows backup files to continue to have these privileges This means that if you update a collection of binaries with rsync, and one or more of them has a local-root security problem, the backup file(s) created when
