It looks like this bug has gathered quite a bit of attention since it was first filed, so let me set some expectations here.
The trouble with patching Ubuntu is that then we're on the hook for maintaining those patches indefinitely. This can cause a great deal of pain if future upstream refactorings mean that the patches need substantial rework, or if upstream decide to implement something very similar but with subtly different semantics. I suggest that to make progress you petition upstream to get this feature landed upstream directly. > Am I correct in the assumption that this has not been done or integrated in rsync in any form(s) at this time? I've not looked, sorry. Someone will have to dig through sources and commit logs and/or release notes and manpages to determine that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1353792 Title: Detect renamed files and handle by renaming instead of delete/re-send To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsync/+bug/1353792/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
