hello!
i am using lftp 2.6.12 to download student video shoots
at this media university to a public server.
this is how an example tree looks like:
+ movies/
+ jim/
+ 01.mpg
+ 02.mpg
+ 03.mpg
+ [COMPLETE-16.02.04]/
+ janet/
+ 01.mpg
+ 02.mpg
+ 03.mpg
+ [COMPLETE-16.02.04]/
what happens when i do "mirror movies" is, that once it has
downloaded all of jim's movies, it continues to do so again,
and this time placing them inside [COMPLETE-16.02.04].
then, it loops the content of [COMPLETE-16.02.04] into
[COMPLETE-16.02.04]/[COMPLETE-16.02.04] and it just keeps on
going. there is nothing i can do to remove the useless
timestamp directory, i must work around it.
to be able to mirror symlinks as well i've placed this
command in my lftp configuration file. i hope that's not the
reason for lftp behaving like this:
set ftp:list-options "-La"
thank you so much!
