It should be mostly like rsync. Right now only -, + and ! are supported as flags and IIRC no modifiers are supported either. The pattern matching rules should be the same, ?, *, **, char classes [ ], and *** should work. There are some minor differences when it comes to some interpretation of bad patterns. See regress/usr.bin/rsync-unit/rmatch_test.c for examples. So if you have a case where it does not work then please report. Filters in rsync are very complex (or totally overdesigned). -- :wq Claudio
