It won't exclude the things I say it should exclude.
My copy have this line:

It does Not exclude them. (Note that I am excluding all debug and _testing
folders, but Not SRPMS)
That line used in my manuall rsync command, works. They are excluded.
So, why won't this work in cronsync?
Hi Johnny,
Sorry for delay - I missed the post.
It's your syntax.
This works using your excludes with the syntax in line 20 of this new
script.

I fixed another bug and changed it slightly to better display rsync
errors in the log.
I have not seen any problems recently and it's running every hour. It
currently keeps a filecount history log as well, but that's just for
interest and testing.
The problem with your syntax seems to be related to the {} - I don't
fully understand why, but it causes a pair of ' to be wrapped around the
--exclude option in the final rsync command :
rsync -rlptgoDhHSn --stats --delete-after --delete-excluded
--protect-args '--exclude={debug/,backports_testing,updates_testing/}'
rsync://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr:/pub/linux/Mageia/distrib
/zmrepo/pub/linux/Mageia/
With my syntax it appears like this:-
rsync -rlptgoDhHSn --progress --stats --delete-after --max-delete=1000
--delete-excluded --protect-args --exclude=debug
--exclude=backports_testing --exclude=updates_testing
rsync://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr:/pub/linux/Mageia/distrib
/zmrepo/pub/linux/Mageia/
