Bug ID: 11152
Summary: Feature Request: Cache Filelist
Product: rsync
Version: 3.1.1
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: core
Assignee: wayned at samba.org
Reporter: andrebruce at gmail.com
QA Contact: rsync-qa at samba.org
Making it simple:
--cache=FILENAME -> Enable cache. Cache, for the local folder, will be
stored/read from FILENAME
So, with --cache, instead of browsing through local files/folders, rsync would
rely on the cache stored at FILENAME (or, if it doesn't exist, rsync would
generate it)
Without --cache, rsync would ignore reading/generating a cache and just work as
usual.
Mirror and backup servers are wasting a lot of IO when browsing through
files/folders that will just be changed by rsync. Caching would be perfect.
While browsing mailing list and google, I've found some of people looking for
this feature.
Thanks!
