I think mtime is natural like traditional find's -newer or -mtime. Of course it may good to be able to specify them, if someone needs it. bhards> > --ignore-older=SECONDs bhards> > ignore any operations with the files older than bhards> > SECONDs before bhards> > differ from --exclude-olders, these files are not bhards> > affected from --include files or --delete-excluded bhards> Same here. What does "operations" mean? I mean compare or delete operations. I think --exclude-older option is for adding the files to exclude list like --exclude pattern match does. And affected from --include, --delete-excluded options. While --ignore-older files not affected. It ignores and keep them. Isn't it effective to speed up rsync process ? Think of the case of periodicaly rsyncing traditional news spool or large Mailing List archives. And server/client expiring policy is different. -- MARUYAMA Shinichi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
