Hi All,
I made a Mac UI application and am running rsync 3 from "do shell
script" (applescript) and am trying to parse the output so I can get a
progress bar to give a fairly true reading of size , or # of files,
copied. I notice that the output reads for example,
..... 1650 of 8345 files to copy
and then later
....30 of 11345 files to copy
and eventually down to
....1 of 18000 files to copy
So I get the idea that rsync 3 is reading in "batches" or at least
doesn't give the total # of files up front (like apple rsync or rsyncx
does with a true % ) so you get what looks like an exaggerated fast
beginning on the progress bar which then slows to a crawl as it nears
the finish line.
Is there any way to get progress to give a more overall picture. I
tried --stats which didn't work at all and -v and of course --
progress. Just wondering if I have missed something.
Thanks, Rob D
