wish: more precise ETA

2004-08-19 Thread Kiss Gabor
When I restart an interrupted download and progress report is on (-P option) the calculated remaining time is totally unusable. (Even worse if meanwhile I play with --bwlimit option.) The actual_speed computation should not be based on the (total_file_size/time_elapsed_since_start) quotient. Much

Syncing with --files-from

2004-08-19 Thread David E. Meier
I want to sync files from remote to local. I have a file with all the includes on the local machine. When executing rsync with --files-from=incfiles.txt, it fails while trying to open incfiles.txt on the remote machine. Is there a way to tell rsync to look for the file locally? Thanks, Dave. --

Thanks Wayne. I have updated to 2.6.2 and it works now. I am using RH9 (rsync v2.5.5) and I was not aware that this option is that new for rsync. Sorry for the hassle. Dave On Thu, Aug 19, 2004 at 06:26:06PM +0200, David E. Meier wrote: I assume rsync sets --files-from=- because it is not able

[Wayne Davison] That patch was included in the 2.6.3pre1 release (though a small portion of it proved to be unneeded and was not applied). See the rsync.samba.org web site for the source (and there's a debian release in experimental which has a version of 2.6.2.pre3.1-1 because the official

I want to rsync on the basis of content and content only; I don't want to copy if the file is no different and I don't want not to copy if the file is at all different (of course). I think the right incantation is with the -c (always checksum) option: rsync -rlvc here/ there But it
