Hi, I hope I have not been google-incompetant, but I have been unable to find an explicit answer a case I am concerned about.
If am rsyncing a file and I have the the following sequence of events happen in the same second 1. rsync starts 2. rsync sends some chunk of data to the other end 3 a local process modifies the chunk that has just been sent I have seen statements that rsync does a whole file checksum once the transfer is complete - but I couldn't find an explicit statement of whether this checksum is computed after the transfer has completed. So, my question - is this case a race condition in which a subsequent run of rsync may miss that the file has been modified and hence skip it ? thanks -- Franc
