Hi, I have written a 'smallish' patch to implement the --inplace option as discussed on this mailing list at various points in the past. It makes a small modification to the sender algorithm so that it won't ask the receiver to relocate blocks from earlier in the file when running with the --inplace option. I would appreciate any testing and feedback people can provide! I

I have attached a patch that supports a new "--direct-write" option. The result of using this option is to write directly to the destination files, instead of a temporary file first. The reason this patch is needed is for rsyncing to a device where the device is full or nearly full. Say that I am writing to a device that has 1 Meg free, and a 2 meg file on that device is out of date.

hi, all. I had an problem with rsync-2.5.4/5 related to filename length. On Linux box (kernel-2.4.18 + ext3 fs), filename length limits to 255byte, but rsync can't handle fn > (255 -9) byte. So I had an instant hack to avoid this problem. Patch file attatched works fine in my case, but I'm not sure that it is correct or not. Any suggestions ? Please cc me, I'm not on this

The following code in receiver.c around line 421 (2.5.6pre1) contains some dead code: /* we initially set the perms without the setuid/setgid bits to ensure that there is no race condition. They are then correctly updated after the lchown. Thanks to snabb@epipe.fi for pointing this out. We also set it initially without group access

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 3) * Don't link empty files. * Roll over to new file when filesystem maximum link count is reached. * If link fails for another reason, leave

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

I've been having problems trying to sync two small partitions (128MB) that may be near to full. If rsync gets a write error (such as is caused when you fill up a partition) during a sync without the use of "-T", it will stop with this error: rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes: phase "unknown": Broken pipe rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream

Hello, It would be goog if attached patch will be included in upstream. This patch adds option --apt-support for rsync and with this option rsync will print some additiona information about file being transfered. No program logic changed. Having this option in rsync we can have apt with rsync method support. Begin forwarded message: Date: Fri, 31 Jan 2003 11:34:14 -0200 From: Gustavo Niemeyer

[I sent this the other day, but it never got approved for the list] I've been having problems trying to sync two small partitions (128MB) that are usually near being full. The rsync would fail with this cryptic error: rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes: phase "unknown": Broken pipe rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(515) It ends up

Hello, here is a preliminary patch allowing rsync 2.5.6 to compile in BeOS (using the new BONE networking stack). Some explanations: - BeOS doesn't have chroot(), - the BONE networking stack export legacy network function for old apps in libnet.so (linked to by default), so it's necessary to force linking to the new libraries for things to work. I've yet to get inet_ntop() to be

Recently various needs for multiple version handling were discussed and I put forward a plan of mine. Subsequently the proposal for a --compare-file=<FILE> switch had support, so I have implemented this. I have also implemented an experimental --compare-auto which decides which file to match against using a rule. Instructions for patch: 1. Install rsync-2.5.6 source 2. "patch -p1

This patch adds the --link-by-hash=DIR option, which hard links received files in a link farm arranged by MD4 file hash.

Anyone have an example of an MD4 collision so I can test that case? :) Patch Summary: -1 +1 Makefile.in -0 +304 hashlink.c (new)

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

I've recently encountered this issue which was discussed here about a year ago. I'm not sure if anyone has a fix for this, but I thought I would post my workaround here. Since the topic is old, I'm summarising the problem .. basically it involves rsync creating large numbers of files with a leading ".." when syncing to an apple network share via afp. The essence of the

Hi Rob / Wayne, Sorry for the slow reply Rob. I'm not sure of the requirements for patches, but I think it would be useful to create one for this case as there are reasonably number of people affected. I created a patch file against the current version (see below). Would it be possible to include this patch in the official list? Cheers Ira diff -Naur rsync-3.0.8_orig/receiver.c
