Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2007 08:47:17 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <07f076c821c5ff2efca16357f198075a@coraid.com> (raw)
i'm using updatedb on two successive days in a dump
where $path on day n-1 was a file and $path on day n
was a directory. updatedb generates an 'm' (modified
stat) line for this case. this seems wrong to me.
i would think that it should generate a 'd' (delete) followed
by a 'c' (create) pair. although i'm sure an argument could
be made the other way.
i'm leaning toward changing updatedb. is there a better
argument for fixing the consumer?
