Such a patch probably won't make it into rsync, but rsync could enable
the popt alias mode that would allow people to customize their rsync
options, and thus make typing personalized rsync commands easier. Rsync
would need this patch:

At which point you could create a ~/.popt file that contains any alias
you wanted to create, such as these:
rsync alias -A -a --delete
rsync alias --archive-delete -A
Those lines create both the -A and --archive-delete options that you
specified (though you probably only really need the first line, since
I doubt that you'll want to type the second one).

Re: Database file rsync - any way to tell it to rsync against the last file?
On Fri, Nov 12, 2004 at 03:27:57PM -0600, Michael Bourgon wrote: Is there any way to tell it that I want to rsync mike_db_20041110.bak, using mike_db_20041109.bak as a source, so that when I'm done I still have both files? One solution that rsync supports out of the box is to use custom named directories with the same file name. For instance, change the files to be these: 20041109/mike_db.bak 20041110/mike_db.bak You could then run an rsync command like this: rsync -av --link-dest=/path/20041109 20041110/ remote:/path/20041110/ (The repeated 20041110 dir is necessary to make the lookup in the link- dest dir work right.) There is also a diff in the patches dir named fuzzy.diff that lets you specify the --fuzzy option when you want rsync to try to find a matching basis file in the current directory (it must have the same suffix and be named similarly to the transferred file). Using an rsync modified with that patch would work with the filenames you're currently using. I'm considering adding --fuzzy for the next release, but I'd like to see it improved a bit first. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

rsync bug
I discovered that if etc/ is in an exclude file ,anything with etc will also be excluded,e.g. /usr/etc , /usr/local/etc ,and so on.Command i used: rsync -av -e ssh / mike:/ --exclude-from=/home/michael/excludes_mike --delete and /home/michael/excludes_mike read at first dev/ mnt/ proc/ tmp/ home/michael/Shared/* home/michael/Incomplete/* backup/ etc/ Later when i removed /etc from this list,changing it to mnt/ proc/ tmp/ home/michael/Shared/* home/michael/Incomplete/* backup/ etc/HOSTNAME etc/fstab etc/inittab etc/ssh/ etc/ssl/ etc/hotplug.d/ etc/hotplug/ every file with etc (not belonging to /etc )in its name was sync-ed,which must mean they had been previously excluded. -- Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/ -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
