Summary: rsync remove-source-files and opened file
Product: rsync
Version: 3.0.6
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: core
AssignedTo: way...@samba.org
ReportedBy: theb...@zoznam.sk

Hi,
when I use option remove-source-files and source files is opened and growing
rsync copy partial source file and after copying remove it even though in time
after copying the files are different
I suggest to check difference after file is copying and if source and
destination are different don`t remove the source file
next improve is to setup options like remove-source-file-delay to setup some
time after copying to check difference between source and destination and
remove source only if the files are the same
next improve is to setup options like remove-source-file-loop to setup numbers
of loop to try if source file was already closed
if remove-source-file-loop=0 it will be forever
I hope this scenario could be implemented independently on OS and help many
people to use rsync for opened files.
