hi, it seems there's a more-recent solution, referenced here:
http://www.lartmaker.nl/rsync/ that points out: "Since OS X 10.4 (aka Tiger) the MacOS ships with a modified version of rsync. An added option, -E, enables the transfer of extended attributes." exploring, the current apple patches @: http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.4.8.ppc/rsync-24/patches/ apply successfully only to rsync v263 -- and not to v269. rather than depending on apple for patches to old versions, dooes it make sense (is it possible?) to integrate this solution into the rsync tree? thanks. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
