Thanks, Alex! >>>> ...What about filename and file directory, do these have to match >>>> for a pair of files to be identical? >> They wouldn't be identical files. They'd be the same file. :) Yes of course. :-) I was thinking though, what if the directory was the same but filename was different (a copy of the file), or the filename was the same but directory different (copy of file in different directory using same name). And I’m glad to hear they are still detected as the same file! That should be added to that documentation sentence. I’d do it myself but don’t know how. Is it easy to make updates to the documentation? _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
