DO NOT REPLY [Bug 5528] New: rsync deletes files it shouldn't evenlook at!

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5528

Summary: rsync deletes files it shouldn't even look at!
Product: rsync
Version: 3.0.3
Platform: Sparc
OS/Version: Solaris
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P3
Component: core
AssignedTo: wayned@samba.org
ReportedBy: samba@ote.taranis.org
QAContact: rsync-qa@samba.org


Looked at the "NOTABLE CHANGES" section in 3.0.0 but i didn't see anything that
sounded like this should work differently:

$ rm -rf /tmp/RTEST ; mkdir -p /tmp/RTEST/SRC /tmp/RTEST/TARGET/foo
$ /z/pkgs/rsync-2.6.9/bin/rsync -v -a --ignore-existing --delete
/tmp/RTEST/SRC/ /tmp/RTEST/TARGET/oink
building file list ... done
../

sent 76 bytes received 26 bytes 204.00 bytes/sec
total size is 0 speedup is 0.00

^^^^^ As expected.

$ rm -rf /tmp/RTEST ; mkdir -p /tmp/RTEST/SRC /tmp/RTEST/TARGET/foo
$ /z/pkgs/rsync-3.0.3pre2/bin/rsync -v -a --ignore-existing --delete
/tmp/RTEST/SRC/ /tmp/RTEST/TARGET/oink
sending incremental file list
deleting foo/

sent 39 bytes received 12 bytes 102.00 bytes/sec
total size is 0 speedup is 0.00

^^^^^ ARG!!!

Note that /tmp/RTEST/SRC/ needs to be empty and /tmp/RTEST/TARGET/oink mustn't
exist for this to happen.

------- Comment #1 from wayned@samba.org 2008-06-09 09:53 CST -------
This was caused by the transfer having just a single directory in it, and the
delete-during code wasn't using the "solo-file" alternate directory name.

The git repository now has a fix for this. Thanks for the report!
