In an effort to get my long-desired move-files functionality into rsync, I have created a version of my patch that runs as an extra pass at the end of the processing. This results in a simpler set of changes to rsync. I still think it would be nice to have incremental deletions during large transfers (as my first patch provides), but acceptance of this patch would relegate such quibbling to a

Hi, How about adding now option '--backup-only' that means making backups only and don't change any destination files? (I posted similar patch a month ago, but the patch was made for nightly snapshot of 20020808, which was tooo old! Laugh at me...) I want to use rsync with LVM snapshot to make incremental backups like below: 1) Make LVM snapshot of file system and mount it.

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

This patch adds a switch --fat-filenames which replaces all characters that aren't legal on FAT filesystems with an underscore. This is the first time I touch the rsync code, so I may not be going about it the right way, but it seems to be working. Naturally there's some potential for collisions, but it's probably better than what happens currently (such files are simply not copied).

Similar to --omit-{dir,link}-times: --omit-device-times omit device files from --times --omit-special-times omit sockets and fifos from --times Also, fix corner case that allows --omit-dir-times to be ignored. See unchanged_attrs() and recv_generator()'s call to try_dests_non(). Marc. diff -aNpRruz -X /etc/diff.excludes rsync-3.2.7/generator.c devel-3.2.7/generator.c ---

Any feedback on this patch and the possibility of getting it into CVS or the patches directory?

I've added the options --min-age=SECONDS and --max-age=SECONDS to allow rsync to skip files based on how recently they were modified. Setting --min-age=30 (for example) would cause rsync to skip files that had been modified within the last 30 seconds. Setting --max-age=7776000 would cause rsync to skip files that had been modified more than 90 days ago (7776000 == 60*60*24*90). I realize

Hello, I wrote this patch that allows you to run rsync over an existing I/O connection, instead of creating a new rsh or socket connection. For example, I have a client and server that talk over ssh via a simple custom protocol. I want to use the existing ssh connection to transfer files, but I want the flexibility of rsync to do it. With this patch, I can do the following in my client

In the past there have been discussions about adding a switch to rsync to preserve the atime on files being copied by rsync. I needed this function for a project I'm working on and decided to invent it. I've attached the diffs. Note that this has the limitations describe in previous emails, namely that preserving atime causes ctime to not be preserved. *** Patch follows *** ***

Hi, I have a Fenton Powerpal L660, when I try and configure nut with either the metatec or fentonups driver, and start upsd, the UPS instantly turns itself off. It used to work, until I changed my motherboard and CPU, which means it has a different bios and serial port setup. This is happening with Nut 2.0.1 and also Nut 2.0.5. I have an AMD64 bit processor, Mandriva 2007 64 bit. Any

Hi all, I recently ran into some problems with rsync. My plan is to renew some of our old administration concepts from early 90's, I already replaced rdist with rsync a few years ago. Because of the rdist legacy, the current method requires synchronizing files into 6 different locations, {/alt,/usr/alt}/{hostdep,sysdep,hutdep}, which in turn are prioritized by a tool that just symlinks

Hi, Has anyone had success with the Dynamix 650VA, that uses the USB cable? I can't get megatec_usb to recognize it, I have tried both stable and development versions. Regards Glen Ogilvie

This draft patch adds support for transferring extended attributes with a new --xattr option. It ought to work on Linux with XFS or ext2/ext3 filesystems with the SGI/bestbits attribute system. It is partially working, but there seems to be some kind of hang bug while transferring the file list. I suspect it might be provoking a problem in io.c. You need to rerun autoconf, autoheader and

We've used rsync with an old ssh for a couple of years with no problems. Now trying to switch to openssh 3.0.2p1 so we can use protocol 2. Rsync makes the connection via ssh and does it's work. The problem is after rsync runs and exits on the server side the sshd session keeps running and isn't closing the connection. So the rsync client hangs waiting for the connection to end. Is
