similar to: [PATCH] Batch-mode rewrite

Wayne, It's taken a little while for me to get more familiar with the code, but I think I've reached a good breakpoint in improving batch-mode. Let me highlight some of the changes in the attached patch: * --write-batch and --read-batch arguments are no longer passed from client to server. This fixes the current problem that causes the server threads to die when the client

> Just curious: what about the rsync+ patch? Thanks for the reminder. I've just committed Jos's rsync+ patch onto the "branch_mbp_rsyncplus_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.

Here is a diff which should allow applying batch updates remotely ( as apposed to copying the batch files to the remote server and running rsync there ).

Hi All, Here's an rsync patch which adds an --offline flag, letting you transfer changed blocks via removable media, while still comparing checksums via the net. I expect this could be very popular for the growing number of people who want to do disk-based offsite backups, which is what I needed it for. It took me longer than I hoped, but still only several hours to work this out -- it

I'm in the midst of coding a patch set for consideration that will bump the protocol version and have a couple of observations. The current minimum backwards-compatible protocol is 15 but we have code that checks for protocol versions as old as 12. If someone else doesn't beat me to it i'm considering cleaning out the pre-15 compatibility code. A backwards compatibility patch could

Greetings, I'd like to propose a new option to rsync, which causes it to read device files as if they were regular files. This includes pipes, character devices and block devices (I'm not sure about sockets). The main motivation is cases where you need to synchronize a large amount of data that is not available as regular files, as in the following scenarios: * Keep a copy of a block

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

Mark II of the patch set. The first patch (dynsumlen2.patch) increments the protocol version to support per-file dynamic block checksum sizes. It is a prerequisite for varsumlen2.patch. varsumlen2.patch implements per-file dynamic block and checksum sizes. The current block size calculation only applies to files between 7MB and 160MB setting the block size to 1/10,0000 of the file length for a

Currently rsync has a bit of a problem with very large files. Dynamic block sizes were introduced to try handle that automatically if the user didn't specify a block size. Unfortunately that isn't enough and the block size would need to grow faster than the file. Besides, overly large block sizes mean large amounts of data need to be copied even for small changes. The maths indicate

Hi, The following lines in compat.c are rather imprudent: if (read_batch || write_batch) checksum_seed = 32761; else checksum_seed = time(NULL); write_int(f_out,checksum_seed); Setting checksum_seed to a constant in batch mode means block collisions are reproducible and predictable. Thus, some files will be permanently "unlucky" in batch mode and will

This mode is useful when a process is monitoring the log for post-processing of transferred files. With --log-after in local mode, both sender and receiver log to the same log file, so it require --log-file with absolute path. We add %o to the default log format, so it will be easy to tell the logs of the sender from the logs of the receiver: 2023/02/14 14:40:25 [559755] building file list

Hi Folks -- I've recently had the need to add a piece of functionality to rsync that allows one to run 'rsync --daemon' (rsync in "rsync server" mode) over SSH. My main goal was to be able to use some of the features from rsyncd.conf(5) (notably modules) while still using SSH for authentication and network transport. Background: I wanted to have the capability of setting

Dear List, the attached patch makes rsync of local folders almost as fast as cp. when rsync client and server has detected that they are working in local_server mode, they use local_socket, a unix domain socket pair, to pass the file descriptors of the synced files. the server uses the file descriptor it receives from the client to fast copy from src to dst file. on completion of every file fast

Yes, it's time once again to return to the subject of moving files. With the recent changes to the communications code between the receiver and the generator, there is now a non-clogging channel that we can use to signal the sender when a file has been successfully transferred, which allows us delete the original for all transferred files. I have in the past waffled on whether this feature

Some of the debug messages that rsync outputs (when verbose >= 2) can occur on both sides of the connection. This makes it hard to know which program is saying what. Some debug messages deal with this by outputting a "[PID]" string at the start of the message. Unfortunately, the startup message that tells us which pid is which is only output when verbose >= 3, so there's a

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

Hi, first of all, sorry for taking so long. Unfortunately, some other tasks kept coming up. Anyway, attached is the version of the flags patch, that is based on the one I'm using with 2.6.9. It is against the rsync-3.0.0pre9 release. I've included the option name change from the repository, so the option is now called --fileflags. Improved from the previously distributed version is the
