I may have discovered another bug, and I apologize in advance for not digging into it more, and for polluting this thread. When I ran on top of my rather old encrypted copy, after compiling with the delete bug fixed, I noticed that the size was *significantly* larger than it should be, on the order of double or more what I was expecting. Now I had cleaned out the source dir quite a bit, so I suspect that not everything was properly deleted. A quick check at the file counts showed the encrypted directory had nearly 4x the file count of the source dir.
Unfortunately, this made it a no-go for me to resume using rsyncrypto. For now I've migrated to using a fuse encrypted filesystem instead (gocryptfs in my case, since I needed something with reverse mode for feeding into rsync). With the fuse option it means I don't need to preserve an encrypted copy of the data on disk, which rather significantly outweighs any of the drawbacks. As such, I can't see myself moving back to rsyncrypto anytime soon, unless someone can point out something I might be missing?
