You can get a good overview of how rsync works here: http://rsync.samba.org/how-rsync-works.html After reading through that, you should discover that it's the generator that decides what work gets done. ..wayne.. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

Which function in generator trigger the file transfer?
Dear List, I checked the function generate_files, which might be simply stand for generator, but didn't find where triggers the file transfer. As receiver will use read_ndx_and_attrs to read iflags to judge if it's need to be transfered? If I'm wrong, please correct me. Can anyone help to point it out? Thanks. -- Daniel Li -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

Re: Which function in generator trigger the file transfer?
I'm new to rsync, just read little of codes right now. I have read the pipe line would be generator → sender → receiver. But I didn't find where rsync makes sure that the file is going to be transfered (time stamp/file checksum). A. Is there anyone familiar with the code, can give me some tips on a) where generator send the time stamp/file checksum b) where sender compared time stamp/file stamp c) where receiver make sure that it's a go mission? I think some function names is enough for me shorten the time and get a basic understanding of the code. Thanks in advance.
