I just got rsync running on my Windows 2000 machine. I'm using it to
update from my windows machine to a Linux server. Everything seems to work ok except for one wierdness. As far as I can tell, once rsync uploads a file, it always uploads it in subsequent calls to rsync. So, for example, say I modify the file regtest.pl. When I run rsync (in verbose mode), the response looks something like this: rsync: building file list... rsync: 450 files to consider. Lib/Joyis/Apps/Event.pm Lib/Joyis/Apps/Recovery.pm Lib/Joyis/CommandLine/regtest/regtest.pl wrote 9264 bytes read 824 bytes 2241.78 bytes/sec total size is 1963394 speedup is 194.63 Now, suppose I then modify Util.pm and run rsync again. I get something like this: rsync: building file list... rsync: 450 files to consider. Lib/Joyis/Apps/Event.pm Lib/Joyis/Apps/Recovery.pm Lib/Joyis/CommandLine/regtest/regtest.pl Lib/Joyis/Util.pm wrote 10026 bytes read 870 bytes 3113.14 bytes/sec total size is 1963400 speedup is 180.19 Notice that regtest.pl, as well as some other not-recently-modified files are in the list of uploaded files. It looks like rsync is continuuing to upload the files even after they've been uploaded. I checked on the server and the files do get modified, so I don't see why rsync if uploading them again. Why is rsync behaving in this manner? Is there some configuration I may have missed? |
