Bug ID: 15154
Summary: manpage: Describe default behavior in context of
--old-args/--protect-args
Product: rsync
Version: 3.2.0
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: core
Assignee: wa...@opencoder.net
Reporter: c.bu...@posteo.jp
QA Contact: rsync...@samba.org
Target Milestone: ---
I am not a well experienced rsync user. So it could be that I misunderstood
something and this report is wrong.
Context: This is about how --old-args and --protected-args are described in the
manpage.
Problem: It seems to me that the manpage doesn't mention the default value or
default behavior.
Details: In my understanding that two arguments have an opposite meaning. So
they can't be used together. The question about the default values is if I call
rsync without any of that arguments how will rsync behave?
I assume that `--protect-args` is the default behavior but I'm for away from
being sure.
If I am not wrong I would suggest to improve the manpage and describe the
"default" behavior.
