Bug ID: 11378 Summary: Please add a '--line-buffered' option to rsync to make logging/output more friendly with pipes/syslog/CI systems/etc. Product: rsync Version: 3.1.1 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 Component: core Assignee: way...@samba.org Reporter: nn...@neulinger.org QA Contact: rsync...@samba.org Created attachment 11225 --> https://bugzilla.samba.org/attachment.cgi?id=11225&action=edit patch to implement --line-buffered option Behavior change with --line-buffered would be primarily to --progress - which would output a newline after percentage update instead of just a carriage-return. During a normal operation with smaller files you'd never notice the difference, but with large files (say recurrent sync of ISO images or similar) - you'd get a MUCH more usable output trace in the build system and logs instead of it all being merged onto one "line" of output. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
