           Summary: Add chroot enablement option to rsync client
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.1.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned at samba.org
        ReportedBy: bmn at mailinator.com
         QAContact: rsync-qa at samba.org


When running rsync on a directory that is meant to be a chroot, rsync will
currently not correctly resolve symlinks with absolute targets because
obviously, those targets are meant to be interpreted from inside the chroot.
Because of that, copy-unsafe-links and safe-links cannot be used properly in
those cases.
It would be nice if there was an option to make the rsync client "chroot
aware".
