--- Comment #7 from Ian Kelling <i...@fsf.org> --- > But here in the US for half of the year you need --modify-window=3602 instead. I think people use vfat because there are a lot of devices out there like android which require it, and they only care about timestamps in so much as they can tell rsync which files need to be copied. We are in daylight savings right now, and syncing to filesystem made with mkfs.vfat seems to work fine with less than 3602 modify window. > Rsync should not be responsible for detecting what a filesystem can handle. > Many things can obscure those facts from rsync on a per-directory basis (or > even a per-file basis). That's the only good argument I see. The bug asks if we can detect it. If it's not feasable in normal efficient operation, case closed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
