--- Comment #13 from MulticoreNOP <multicore...@mailbox.org> --- (In reply to Wayne Davison from comment #12) Hi Wayne, that is great news! Could you shine some light on why there is such a limit in the first place? Personally I think such an arbitrary limit is rather unexpected and many people will have a long running rsync command (for me each try took ~6hrs until I could reproduce the error) fail on them until they could even be aware that there is such a limit. In addition to that, I guess only a small fraction of those people will probably find this parameter as a solution to their problem. To me this is like 'cp -R a b' failing, if a/ contains more than 1337 files.
