Difference in behaviour with --backup

2003-02-24 Thread va_public [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When I do rsync -av --backup --backup-dir=/dir1/dir2/Backup \ /dir1/dir2/dir3 machine:/dir1/dir2/dir3 I get /dir1/dir2/Backup/dir3/... /Backup/dir3/dir4/... i.e. the tree under 'dir3' (my source tree) gets created under .../Backup. This is fine. But when I do the same thing

rsync 2.5.6: --suffix option

2003-02-09 Thread va_public [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The ChangeLog for rsync 2.5.6 mentions that the --suffix option has been added to control the suffix of files backed up to the --backup-dir. Wasnt this already there in 2.5.5? In 2.5.5, if I do --backup --backup-dir=mybackup --suffix=.old it doesnt work? I thought it did.
