[Bug 13071] [PATCH] Allow --partial-dir with --inplace
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13071 --- Comment #3 from Ben RUBSON --- Thank you for your feedback Ferran ! I'm not sure about why this patch hasn't been landed yet :) Regarding benefits of using this option in conjunction with --link-dest. Well, certainly same benefit as without :) But imagine you are in a daily backup scheme, using --link-dest. Everyday you have a new timestamped backup directory. Day n, backup window is over, but you did not finish to transfer a huge file. Thanks to this patch, day n+1 will resume the huge file flawlessly, inplace. Hope to see this merged :) -- 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: Improved output (dry run)
Having dry-run not act like the same command without --dry-run would make less sense than people occasionally running it and discovering that they need more options. -v doesn't show things it didn't touch. So, it touched them for some reason. Without --itemize-changes you are left in the dark about what is happening or why. But what you probably want is --omit-dir-times That being said, -v is virtually useless without --itemize-changes anyway.

Improved output (dry run)
Please improve (default) output for *--dry-run*. Specifically, it would be nice to imply *-v* since dry runs without displaying anything make no sense. Further (independently from dry run), it would be nice to have an option to hide directories which did *not* change. The need to *grep* results is really frustrating and error prone. Thanks a lot! -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
