latest macports rsync is actually getting all OS X metadata
Update: I’d forgotten to check the flags that had been missing from the macport version last time around, but they’re all there. Now, running rsync -aNHAXx --fileflags --force-change /Volumes/Src/ /Volumes/rsync3test passes every bbouncer test! Cool.
Original post: On Leopard (10.5.5) using rsync 3.0.4 from macports, a few more tests are passing backup bouncer 0.1.3 (compare to my June post):
$ sudo ./bbouncer verify -d /Volumes/Src/ /Volumes/rsync3test/
