           Summary: rsync recopies files with diacritics in the file names.
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.0.5
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Mac OS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned at samba.org
        ReportedBy: mmcmonster at gmail.com
         QAContact: rsync-qa at samba.org


I am using the following command in the mac terminal to copy files from an ext3
linux computer (Ubuntu 9.04) to my Mac:

rsync -rptuv --delete --progress
myusername at mydesktopcomputer.homeip.net:/home/myusername/Music/English/
/Users/myusername/Music/Music/

Both apparently running rsync 3.05)

The problem is that if the file name contains a diacritic (such as "Sinéad
O'Connor" or "Déjà Vu", the file gets deleted and recopied, even if the file
hasn't changed. (If I run the rsync command twice in a row, the file gets
deleted and copied twice ina row.)

Note that the rest of my library gets ignored, appropriately, since it hasn't
changed.
