(pseudo) incremental backup with different exclude lists using hardlinks and rsync
a4c61e7b68
According to the documentation, "if [the very_verbose] file exists in the source specification -v will be passed to rsync, rm and mkdir." Previously, the -v option was passed only to rsync. This patch passes it to rm and mkdir as well. Actually, as per the behavior of the previous version, it is verbose that sends the -v option to rsync while very_verbose sends it the -vv option. I left it this way because this behavior seems reasonable. Maybe the documentation should be corrected on this point. |

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ccollect.sh, Nico Schottelius, 2005-12-06 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ccollect backups (local or remote) data to local or remote destinations. You can retrieve the latest version of ccollect at [0]. ccollect was inspired by rsnapshot [1], which has some problems: - configuration parameters has to be TAB seperated - you can not specify per source exclude lists - no per source pre/post execution support - no parallel execution - does unecessary moving of backup directories - I didn't like the configuration at all, so I used the cconfig style [2]. Please use tools/report_success.sh to report success, if you are successfully using ccollect.
