Bug ID: 13820 Summary: rsync is not preserving ACLs Product: rsync Version: 3.1.3 Hardware: x64 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 Component: core Assignee: wa...@opencoder.net Reporter: dines...@nokia.com QA Contact: rsync...@samba.org Hi, rsync seems to be not preserving ACLs like it is mentioned in the man pages. Here the case is that source files don't have any ACLs set, and destination file has group ACL. When the file is copied using rsync from another VM, destination file ACLs are lost. Even though I am not using "-A" or by using "--no-A" ACLs are being lost.
