Explicit sender directory arguments now act as transfer roots and may pass through symlinks regardless of ownership. This fixes both absolute and relative source paths, including --relative while keeping recursive traversal confined beneath the selected source root.
Daemon paths, --files-from entries and file-leaf symlink handling are unchanged.
@peabee Could you test this with your backup application using the original /mnt/home/My_Documents path? Please check that the backup completes and the expected files are copied.
Hi happy to test but unsure what "this" is or how to obtain it......
A binary would be ideal......
But if you want me to download source and compile I don't know how to download source with a pull request included - sorry!
This is built against TrixiePup64, so it may not run on your Slackware-based Puppy - rsync.tar.gz
Make sure to keep your existing rsync; if this binary reports a library error, send me that error and your exact Puppy version/environment so I can provide a matching build.
Ah and you can use git clone --single-branch --branch sender-ancestor-links https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync.git to clone the PR if that is easier.
