- - If a file has a read error on the sending side or the reconstructed
- data doesn't match the expected checksum (perhaps due to the basis
- file changing during the transfer), the receiver will no longer
- retain the resulting file unless the --partial option was specified.
- (Note: for the read-error detection to work, neither side can be
- older than 2.6.3 -- older receivers will always retain the file, and
- older senders don't tell the receiver that the file had a read
- error.)
-
- - If a file gets resent in a single transfer and the --backup option
- is enabled, rsync no longer performs a duplicate backup (losing the
- original file in the process).
