I'm writing a wrapper around a large number of rsyncs that need to
happen, and it would be great if I could parse the output of a running
rsync and find out how far along it is. To do this, I would need to
know how many files the rsync is going to transfer. If I run 'rsync
-avz --progress', it
If you perform a dry run (-n) with --stats, before the actual run (will only
add an overhead of typically a few seconds. a few minutes at worst depending
on size) you can get an idea of the number of files to be transferred and
total transferred file size,
although the latter is (as adequately

Oh... different story then...
I'm sure that value that is printed with --stats is in the
filelist structure... maybe it could be output on stdout after building
file list... with a small tweak... Maybe Wayne/Matt would

No, that gives the total number of files rsync is considering, not how
many it is going to transfer. There is no way to determine how many
files rsync is going to transfer short of a dry run.
