rsync updates permissions when they haven't changed
Hi,
Quick question regarding rsync behaviour. I run a daily rsync command to backup a bunch of my files to an external drive. When I run the command rysnc will update a bunch of files that have not changed. The "--itemize-changes" option indicates that rsync is only updating the permissions of these files yet they have not changed.
For example the output:
".f...p..... bin/mlbhls/mlb.c"
Is this behaviour normal?
Thanks.
