Summary: --exclude option causes rsync to fail
Product: rsync
Version: 2.6.3
Platform: x86
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P3
Component: core
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
After upgrading to rsync 2.6.3pre1 yesterday, I was no longer able to sync
successfully through SSH.
bash$ ssh -x [EMAIL PROTECTED] rsync --server --sender --exclude /etc -av . /
rsync: Error parsing options: option may be supported on client but not on server?
rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1064)
If I remove the --exclude option this problem goes away. Both computers are
running rsync 2.6.3pre1.
This problem does not occur if I instead do `rsync -e "ssh -l root"' instead of
first SSH'ing to the remote computer and running rsync from there. If you need
any more information please let me know.
