Hi John, Thanks for your comments. This does not appear to be a bug report and we are closing it. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but it would make more sense to raise your question in the support tracker. https://answers.launchpad.net As it stands, the manual pages for rsync include information that the specific commands you listed as rsync -v dirsource/ dirtarget/ will not send the recursive files and directories to the target; essentially normal and expected behaviour for the program. Please see man rsync for more information or feel free to post your comments and questions through the support channels.
All the best, and please feel free to report any bugs in the future. Regards, Justin ** Changed in: rsync (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Justin Payne Status: New => Invalid -- rsync requires the use of the -a option in order to copy files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/122589 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
