On that page it states: "You cannot use the standard Mac OS X
install of rsync to manage HFS+ volumes."
I don't know how true this is since the product doesn't
specifically say that it's been updated for OS X 10.4 and rsync
has added the -E option, but it would certainly account for
the .DS_Store issue.
it seems very strange that this is something that could have been
handled! As you can see my command is using -E and I'm still having
the issue (As I mentioned in my re-post, it seemed to only happen
with small files)
I can actually get away with the files being temporarily invisible,
as no human has a need to see the files in finder anyway, I just
thought it would have been nice to sort out.. I'll check out rsyncx
though!
There's also some rsync 'exclude' options (-C et. al.) and a --delete-
excluded to try out for the .DS_Store files.
-C, --cvs-exclude auto-ignore files in the same way CVS does
--exclude=PATTERN exclude files matching PATTERN
--exclude-from=FILE exclude patterns listed in FILE
