dry-run bytest to be transferred?

2007-11-11 Thread Max Kipness

Is there anyway on a dry-run to actually see per file how many bytes are to
be transferred? On a normal run I use  --log-format=/%f/%l/%b/%i which shows
the total file size and the actual bytes transferred. 

Also, during a dry-run, is there anyway to show the Literal Data?

Basically, I'm trying to calculate something before the actual run takes
place.

Dry-run is telling me which files have changed and why, but not telling me
how much of the file is different.

Thanks,
Max

You can't get this information on a dry run because a dry run skips file
transfers altogether to save time.  Instead, you could do a push with
--only-write-batch ; this will give you accurate statistics without
sending the file transfer data over the network or modifying the
destination.
