Feature Request: Disable delete on rsync end #14

Closed jloh closed 10 years ago

jloh commented 10 years ago

Hey there,

I'm wondering if it's possible to enable a option to disable the delete feature on the backup server end? This is because I'd like to have the backups on my gitlab server be deleted once they're a week old but a 6 months old on by backup server end due to space constraints on the gitlab server end.

One could change the rsync commands in the script. The -b flag is maybe what you are after.

Alternately, you could forgo the use of the remote copy in this script and create a new script that does what you are looking for.

In my production environment, I don't have the disk space nor the need to archive the backups so I can't add what you are after as a feature.
