Package: rsync
Version: 2.6.2-2
Severity: normal
mkdir source
touch source/file
mkdir target
rsync -auv source/ target
chmod go+w source/file
rsync -auv source/ target
Output of the last command is:
| building file list ... done
|
| wrote 82 bytes read 20 bytes 204.00 bytes/sec
| total size is 0 speedup is 0.00
It doesn't list source/file, even though the permissions have
changed. The same happens with owner/group.
In particular, if rsync is run with "-n" and "-v", it appears
that the trees are identical, which is misleading.
