Hi -
I've been trying to get rdiff-backup working under cygwin as well. I get
the same problems as you see. From what I can see fsync works under
windows/cygwin but doesnt work when the file is open read only:
So this doesnt work:
echo testing > fsync-testfile
python -c 'import os; os.fsync(os.open("fsync-testfile", os.O_RDONLY))'
rm fsync-testfile
but this does:
echo testing > fsync-testfile
python -c 'import os; os.fsync(os.open("fsync-testfile", os.O_RDWR))'
rm fsync-testfile
HTH
