I'm mirroring a very large tree locally. As the tree is larger than the local filesystem, I periodically stop wget, save what I've downloaded on CD-ROM, truncate the saved files to 0 and then start wget -N -r again to get more files. Unfortunately, wget checks not only the mtime but also the size of the local files and starts downloading them again. This patch adds the --ignore-size option which prevents this. When this option is present, wget will not retrieve the remote file again as long as the local file exists and is more recent, even if its size is not the same as the remote file. The patch has been posted to wget-patches. It's also available at <URL:http://www.teaser.fr/~amajorel/wget/>. I will write a documentation patch if you think the patch worth including in the distribution. -- André Majorel Work: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Home: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.teaser.fr/~amajorel/
