Hi,
I am using rsync to backup files. Is it possible to specify an option
not to delete files from backup directory if the files are deleted
from source? In that way, I can always keep something I may or may not
need in the backup disk, but remove it from a work computer.
Thank you.
Kind Regards

The --backup option in GNU mv, and GNU cp extend the behavior of the
-b option in a significant way, I believe. "--backup" allows
specification of versioned backups, especially numbered backups, e.g.
The old version of file, foo, becomes foo.~N~, where N is a decimal

If --backup is specified, the files to be deleted should be renamed on

You've discovered a bug in generator.c. It is fixed by this patch:

Hi,
I have question about the behavior of --backup-dir with
--delete-after option.
In my testing with version 2.6.4, it appears that the backup
option only backups altered files. Files that will be deleted on the
destination system will NOT be placed in --backup-dir location. I

Carey,
What you are seeing is, in fact, the case, but the function that creates
the dirs is robust_move() in backup.c
The backup option captures files and/or directories that are deleted or
changed between syncs. So, if a directory is *changed*
(deleted/renamed/moved), then the directory *and

Running rsync 2.4.7pre1, using the --backup-dir option, I just realized
today that file ownerships and permissions of backed up files are not
preserved. In other words, if rsync moves an obsolete file to the backup
dir, it's ownership seems to revert to root:root, and permissions change, as
