Bug#548897: unison: Please optimise from copy+delete to rename

2012-12-19 Thread Roman Mamedov 
Hello,

Very disappointing to see this still not fixed even after 3 years.

Maybe there's a chance to at least change the copy to cp --reflink (so it
completes instantly on supporting filesystems)?

With respect,

Very disappointing to see that you didn't write a patch even after 3 
years

*and* get it included upstream.

Cheers.

Bug#548897: unison: Please optimise from copy+delete to rename

2009-09-29 Thread Paul LeoNerd Evans 
Package: unison
Version: 2.27.57-2
Severity: wishlist

I renamed a directory containing a large number of large photos on one
side of a mirror, and used unison to move that across.

While the remote side did correctly optimise this as a local copy
operation on its end, removing the need to copy GBs worth of data over
the network, it did admittedly copy all the files on its disk, then
delete the old ones.

Perhaps an optimiser step could come in somewhere, converting operations
that are make a single copy; then delete original into just rename
file.
