osync/CHANGELOG.md

FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS

• Sync function merge (master and slave functions are more more or less the same)
• Tree function merge (current and after tree functions are the same except for output filename and logging)
• Tree functions execute piped commands (grep, awk) on master when launched on remote slave which can cause more bandwith usage
• Exit trap function must also kill child processes
• Make osync run on Cygwin for Windows compatibility

KNOWN ISSUES

• If master and remote slave systems don't have rsync in the same path, execution may fail (RSYNC_PATH is always configured on master, even when executed on slave)
