Dired-sync on Windows #21

Open ghost opened 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

I run Emacs on Windows 10. I have installed Dired-rsync in Emacs but cannot copy files. I get this error:

dired-rsync: failed (see *rsync @ Sat Jan 11 13:50:29 2020 for details)

Does this package run on Windows? Does it support copying locally?

I haven't personally tested it but if you look at the buffer it should show why it failed. Is rsync installed and visible in Emacs' path?

This is the error I get:

cmd:C:/ProgramData/Chocolatey/lib/rsync/cwRsync_5.5.0_x86_Free/bin/rsync.exe -az --info=progress2 "c:/home/docs" "g:/"
dired-rsync: failed (see *rsync @ Sun Jan 12 20:01:35 2020 for details)
user-error: Minibuffer window is not active

If you take that command and run it locally on your windows shell does it work? Have you got an SSH agent setup for passwordless syncing?
