If the file was changed twice in the same second, the first prior to when rsync called stat() on the file, and the second immediately after. If it's just a change made concurrent with rsync coping the file, that will get noticed by rsync because the mtime will be different the next time around (remember that rsync will have duplicated the old mtime, not the change-in-the-the-middle-of-the-transfer mtime). ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
