That's really good, thankyou. I think we should merge this, but not right now because we need to stabilize 2.5. I will put it in the patches/ directory. > Also included is extension to --(ex|in)clude-from to allow - > for stdin. It's somewhat better if you send each patch in a separate email, in case people want to merge one but not the other. Of course in this case it's pretty trivial to split them, and I don't see any reason not to take both. If you have time, it would be really excellent if you could write a test case for the new features, based on the existing ones in testsuite/ Thanks, -- Martin -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
