Hello Guix, As mentioned by Dariqq on Codeberg [1], the latest rsync version comes with some regressions [2, 3, 4, 5] while fixing some security issues [6].
4 and 5 are particularly concerning to me as they can lead to full disks and thus a tricky situation on BTRFS (though I'd assume BTRFS users don't use rsync for backups?). I'd love some advices and opinions to navigate this situation. 1: https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/pulls/8817#issuecomment-16081154 2: https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/issues/897 3: https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/issues/922 (absolute source path) 4: https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/issues/915 (--link-dest) 5: https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/issues/910 (--delete-missing-args) 6: https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/blob/v3.4.3/NEWS.md Best wishes, Phong
