I've uploaded rsync_3.0.9~pre2-1 to debian/experimental, for those who want to give it a try. Note the Debian bug report http://bugs.debian.org/640869 ; quoting a bit: ---- rsync --help says that: (snip) --delete-before receiver deletes before transfer, not during --delete-during receiver deletes during transfer (default) (snip) But man rsync says: (snip) --delete-before receiver deletes before transfer (default) --delete-during receiver deletes during xfer, not before ---- It looks like the manpage needs updating here? Additionally people keep getting confused about the fact that rsync sorts its file list; perhaps that could be mentioned explicitly in the manpage somewhere? The latest issue was that it also sorts the command line arguments when there are multiple source files explicitly listed, see http://bugs.debian.org/640492 It would be nice to see these changes before 3.0.9 is released :-) Paul -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
