In the bufferbloat age, anything that can make for a kinder, gentler bulk transfer protocol seems desirable. This add support for user and server selectable congestion control algorithms. As examples: --congestion-alg=lp # For the tcp-lp algorithm on the command line Or in a subsection: [mystuff] congestion alg = westwood # for a wireless connection And diffserv support: --diffserv=8 for

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, 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.

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

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

Hi, If anyone is interested, the included patch to rsync-2.6.2 allows you to specify the port number for an rsync server as a global option in rsyncd.conf with 'port = <N>' (where <N> is your favorite port number). Note that this parameter only takes effect when the server is started, not when clients connect. Also, specifying the port in rsyncd.conf takes precedence

Hello! In the attached file is patch for the option to set client connection limit. We had problem for dead hosts, so default system timeout is not enough. --conlimit option added Will be great to see this patch in the future version, so we do not need to patch every time. Thanks and Cheers, Eugene. -- -------------- next part -------------- diff -Naur rsync-2.6.8/errcode.h

Greetings, I have written a patch for rsync-2.6.1pre-2 which adds a --time-limit=T option. When this option is used rsync will stop after T minutes and exit. I think this option is useful when rsyncing a large amount of data during the night (non-busy hours), and then stopping when it is time for people to start using the network, during the day (busy hours). If this patch is accepted it may

Greetings, Upon a suggestion to improve the --timelimit patch, I have also added a --stopat option. You can get the patch from this URL and/or cut/paste it from below. http://www.terry.uga.edu/~jft/rsync-timelimit-stopat.patch.gz Here are the details... --timelimit=T This option allows you to specify the maximum number of minutes rsync will run for. This time starts when

Hi everyone, I'd like to propose a patch for review. It enhances rsync when patched and compiled with slp support. It adds a new global boolean option, 'disable slp', which can be used to disable SLP advertisements at runtime. The idea behind this patch is to allow distributors to build rsync with SLP support compiled in, but to allow the users to turn it off without recompiling

Dear rsync folks, I'd like to request/suggest that cli options to set TCP send/receive buffers be added to rsync client-side. Summary: I'm aware that a daemon's config-file can set socket options for the server side (e.g. SO_SNDBUF, SO_RCVBUF). That is useful. But when trying to get high-throughput rsync over long paths (i.e. large bandwidth*delay product), since

We needed the group id bit to always be set on directories when rsync creates them. We always run rsync from a script with just the -ltR options. The destination file system uses acl's to control file access so new files need to inherit the properties of the directories they're in. (This is for IBM's global storage architecture on Aix or Linux). I made the following changes to make

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).

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

If rsync is called with -4 or -6, that option is currently ignored when ssh is used as the transport. The attached patch is a stab at passing the option on to the ssh process. It checks that the remote shell program is something that looks like ssh. Perhaps that could be done cleaner...

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
