Package: unison
Version: 2.9.1-1
Severity: normal
I'd like to preserve the time stamp during synchronisation. The manual does
not discuss this, and hence I tried to use the "-p" Option of ssh. The man
page is a little vague how to use it, so I tried all possibilities:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:.../share/doc/unison[519] % unison-gtk -rshargs "-p"
Bad port 'unison'
Lost connection with the server
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:.../share/doc/unison[521] % unison-gtk -rshargs p
Password:
bash: line 1: p: command not found
Lost connection with the server
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:.../share/doc/unison[523] % unison-gtk -rshargs -p
Bad port 'unison'
Lost connection with the server
So either there is a bug in unison or in the man page which states:
-rshargs xxx
other arguments (if any) for remote shell command
where the man page states later:
Some preferences are just boolean flags. Others take
numeric or string arguments, indicated in the preferences
list by n or xxx. Most of the string preferences can be
given several times; the arguments are accumulated into a
list internally.
Runing just "unison-gtk" works fine, though.
Both machines are running Debian GNU/Linux, the server stable, the client
testing.
