Re: Don't follow bind mounts?
On Thu, May 16, 2013 at 12:33 PM, Shachar Shemesh shac...@shemesh.bizwrote: My personal solution is to bind-mount the root of the file system to a neutral location, and rsync from there. That's a great solution! The only negative I can see is for a non-admin who doesn't have permission to do the temporary bind mount. For those that need a non-privileged method, check out the mnt-excl perl script in the support directory -- it provides a method of generating excludes from /proc/mounts. Its comments also mention an even simpler, filter-option-based solution that will work for some setups (since filters support absolute paths). ..wayne.. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

Re: Using rsync to just -resync permissions and ownership?
On Tue, May 14, 2013 at 6:09 PM, Carl Brewer c...@bl.echidna.id.au wrote: so --archive will overwrite permissions on files that it's not replacing? Yes, but you need to be very sure that it doesn't overwrite changed files that you wanted to keep. For safety, you can use --backup along with --backup-dir and check the backup files to see if anything was superseded that shouldn't be. However if I were wanting to just reset permissions, I'd use the file-attr-restore perl script in the support directory. It parses the output of a find -ls run (which is generated on the host that has the good permissions). It does not try to fix up any xattrs or acls, though (if you should need that). ..wayne.. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

[Bug 8838] rsync daemon chooses wrong destination place if space and the module name is part of it
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8838 Wayne Davison way...@samba.org changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEW |ASSIGNED --- Comment #7 from Wayne Davison way...@samba.org 2013-05-19 19:56:15 UTC --- It is the intention of --protect-args (-s) to avoid such space splitting. The manpage in the cited section mentions that the space-splitting methods are old, and later on talks about how -s can be used to avoid them. Those that are using newer versions of rsync should be using the non-deprecated, multi-arg calling syntax, OR the legacy parsing that is provided by the (usually) default --no-protect-args behavior. So, I consider this a bug in --protect-args. I'm looking at a patch similar to the last-proposed one. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

Re: rsync to sync time without attempting to modify the content
On Tue, Apr 2, 2013 at 12:07 PM, Brice Rebsamen brice.rebsa...@gmail.comwrote: So what I want, is to be able to compare files this way: if the file does not exist at the destination, then transfer it with timestamps (rsync -t) otherwise: if timestamps and sizes are different: if md5sums match if the source time stamp is earlier than the destination timestamp update the timestamp of the destination otherwise report (in a log file or something so that I can come back to those later) You can use rsync to help with that, but it won't do it for you. For instance, the first part can be done by specifying --ignore-existing (so that rsync just copies in missing files). You could then get a list of files that differ in their timestamp by running a --dry-run with --itemize-changes. If you use --checksum, it will differentiate between identical files and those that are different, but it will take a huge amount of time to checksum all files. Instead, you may want to just have rsync list all the files that differ by time and you then put them into a --files-from file for rsync to check via --dry-run and --checksum. ..wayne.. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

Any plans for a 3.1.0 release(-date)?
Hi If i'm reading git right(git log v3.0.9..) the development branch that will eventually result in 3.1.0 is nearly 5 years in the making. Personally i'm anticipating the fallocate support, as XFS is great at preallocateing (fallocating even a several gigabyte big file only takes milliseconds) which reduces fragmentation especially when the copy operation takes time. -- Matthias -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

If you're wanting to force --bwlimit to a particular value, your only option is probably to write a pre-xfer exec script that scans the args and dies with an error if bwlimit isn't right. What we need to do for the future is make the daemon side send any in-effect bwlimit to the client in the protocol at startup. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

contribute to rsync
Hello All, Myself Garvit Sharma working in hyderabad central university(HCU) at DCIS. I have started using rsync to sync the data and i found it very interesting. After using rsync a lot i realized to contribute to rsync by adding some extra features into it. Every time for synchronization we need to do it manually by executing command on the command line but instead of doing it manually imagine if it does automatically sync whenever it find changes in the single file. To do this we need to start a daemon on both the source and destination and these daemon will check the time stamp of last modification of the directory we want and if it finds the new time stamp then it will sync. The above mentioned idea is my own and i have already started reading and understanding the source of rsync. Please give your comments, your comments matters a lot for me.
