I'm using rdiff backup for the first time on a mac osx system. One
machine is running version 1.1.3 the other is running 1.1.4
while I have the remote disk locally mounted I'm not using that.
Instead I'm running rdiff backup in the usual way via ssh rdiff-
backup --server
I get two kinds of error messages. One of them is an update error
that differs from the kind discussed in the wiki (for log files and
other rapidly changing files).
the files causing the error are old files that have not been touched
in months.
the destination for the backup is an empty directory with no previous
backups in it.
here's some sample error messages. I get lots of these:
UpdateError Clustermatic.cdr Updated mirror temp file /Volumes/big/
