Summary: rsync not recursive when using -a in combination with --
files-from
Product: rsync
Version: 2.6.8
Platform: x86
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: core
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rsync does not copy files recursively when -a and --files-from are used
together:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ mkdir src dst; touch src/testfile; echo src > files
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ rsync -a --files-from=files . dst
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ find dst/
dst/
dst/src
But it it's doing is recursively, when an additional -r is given:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ rm -rf dst/; mkdir dst
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ rsync -ra --files-from=files . dst
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ find dst/
dst/
dst/src
dst/src/testfile
