Summary: Add support for --dry-run with --write-batch
Product: rsync
Version: 2.6.3
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: core
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Make the combination of --write-batch with --dry-run create a batch file without
actually updating the destination. (The current behavior is to complain if the
user tries to combine these options.)
The implementation would require rsync to do more work in --dry-run mode than
normal when --write-batch is specified (i.e. generating checksums, computing
diffs), but still not send the update-data to the receiver (just to write it to
the batch file). This _might_ be fairly easy, but I haven't checked yet to be
sure.
