Hey.
Can anybody spot my mistake?
mkdir a b c
echo foo > a/test
echo foo > b/test
rsync -av --compare-dest=b a/ c/
Expected results:
no copy of a/test to c/test, since it is already present in b.
Actual results:
a/test gets copied to c/test
What is wrong here? My expectation? my syntax? I'm having the same
trouble with --link-dest, and --copy-dest. The behaviour I'm seeing
from rsync, is what I would have expected if the --XX-dest= parameter
would be missing. (I've tried every variation of having or not having
slashes
after the a/ b/ and c/'s I could think of)
(tested with 2.6.9 on linux, and with cwrsync 2.6.9 on windows xp)
Bye, Lucas
