Yes, it would be possible, but it would require going through and reformatting each of the 77 FERROR_XFER messages individually and would make a few of them less readable (e.g., "link A => B failed" would become "B: link from A failed"). Another option would be to print an additional "failed to propagate B" message after a failure of any kind on file B, and your script could just match those messages. > i am trying to do 1 now and think 3 is better. but since rsync daemon > know which file(s) are not transferred, can rsync daemon pass these > information back to rsync client and print it out?
