Hi,
I am trying to get rdiff-backup 1.0.1 going on cygwin. I will have a
windows package built shortly, but I would love it if windows-> windows
backups worked.
the initial backup works ok, but after the session stats are printed at
the end I get an error similar to the one below. Thats fine, but
subsequent backups crash with the error below before copying any files.
I think os.fsync is not available on cygwin python2.4 and is erroneously
turned on...
Let me know if there any other information you need to help me out - is
there some way I can turn off fsyncing on cygwin?
thanks
dave
