Andrew,

Hi, thanks for reply.
The following are logs. There is a color labeled folder in Test named as Color. I noticed that color labeled file will be backed up but color labeled folder will not be.
I suppose this is a bug?

Hello,

I just decided to switch to rdiff-back from rsync for our lab's data.

First of all, I like the incremental way of backup things. Second,
rdiff-back claim to be able to back up all the information on a Mac OS X
file system.

However I am having some problems. I did not do a thorough test, but I
have noticed that rdiff-backup cannot backup Finder color lable.

Jeremy,

The Finder color label information works just fine for me. What version of Mac OS X are you using? 10.4 is the first one that supported extended
attributes. Before 10.3, color labels might have been stored in some
other manner.

Also, try creating a test folder with a single file and giving it a
color label. Then backup the folder with rdiff-backup but use "-v8" or
"-v9" as an option to increase the logging. Send us the log file if the
color label is not backed-up and maybe we can see what's wrong.


Best,
Andrew
