I host the Canadian FTP mirror for OTRS. I've noticed that when I mirror the FTP site each night I get an updated copy of the entire /misc directory. I'm assuming this is because it's being checked out of CVS each day, or some other process is updating the timestamps on all the files. In any case, it's rather irritating, as I get a huge email listing all the updated otrs:/misc files every morning.
So, just as a FYI, I'm omitting the /misc directory from my nightly mirror and only updating it once a week on Sunday.
It is misc/doc/ only. I do a full mirroring with rsync each night, and so these 25 MB "new files" are matching the "old files" very very good. Number of files: 2034 Number of files transferred: 1592 Total file size: 747797684 bytes Total transferred file size: 25808580 bytes Literal data: 8736 bytes Matched data: 25799844 bytes File list size: 41912 Total bytes written: 216404 Total bytes read: 237288 You see we had to fetch bare 237 kB. And the whole run needs less than one minute. Cheers -e -- Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de, em@kki.org)
