Charles, I just ran an rsync -nr against my old rsync copy. CVSROOT files are different since they're rebuilt every time you modify one of them. The following is a list of directories that differ: leaf/bin/bering-uclibc/ leaf/bin/config/webconf/ leaf/bin/lince/ << four files leaf/bin/packages/nolibc/ << one file pxeinstall.tgz leaf/bin/packages/uclibc-0.9/ leaf/devel/espakman/ << one file usbfile.gz leaf/devel/freat/ leaf/devel/hejl/ leaf/devel/jjprieto/Attic/ << one file lince.iso.bz2 leaf/devel/nangel/ leaf/devel/pstraina/ leaf/doc/ << verified with my working copy leaf/sourceforge/ << verified with my working copy leaf/src/bering-uclibc/ leaf/src/config/webconf/ > I should probably look at making weekly/monthly snapshots, I just > haven't bothered to play with rsync enough to make the backups small, > and I haven't had enough space to keep lots of copies around. > > Anyone used rsync to make "zero sized" backups (ie: use the hard-links > option so only files that changed take up more space) and care to share > some example scripts/usage? -- Mike Noyes <mhnoyes at users.sourceforge.net> http://sourceforge.net/users/mhnoyes/ SF.net Projects: leaf, phpwebsite, phpwebsite-comm, sitedocs ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
