rsync creating thousands of ..ds_store files from mounted volume
- by daniel Crabbe
hello there - been using rsync on os x to sync all our website admins.
it was working fine until the os x 10.6.3 update!
Now it creates thousands of ZeroK folders. It only does it when synching to a mounted drive(which we need to do) as when i sync to my hd it works as usual!
i've tried excludes which don't seem to be working... also tried different version of rsync so its an os x issue.
