android/rsend/README, branch 0.1.2 [no description] app: drop --mkpath for compatibility with old remote rsyncs 2026-07-01T00:00:00+00:00 Lena lena@omega 2026-07-01T00:00:00+00:00 44ebf6db6cf2725e18f0e1129f4005fd456b03dc rsync forwards --mkpath to the remote side when sending, so a remote rsync older than 3.2.3 (notably stock macOS, whose openrsync is "rsync 2.6.9 compatible") rejects every sync with "unrecognized option '--mkpath'". rsync creates the final component of the destination path on its own, so flat remote paths keep working everywhere, including the documented rrsync setup whose root is pre-created. Only a nested remote path with missing parents now needs a one-time mkdir -p on the server; the log shows rsync's error when it is missing.

rsync forwards --mkpath to the remote side when sending, so a remote
rsync older than 3.2.3 (notably stock macOS, whose openrsync is
"rsync 2.6.9 compatible") rejects every sync with "unrecognized
option '--mkpath'".

rsync creates the final component of the destination path on its own,
so flat remote paths keep working everywhere, including the documented
rrsync setup whose root is pre-created. Only a nested remote path with
missing parents now needs a one-time mkdir -p on the server; the log
shows rsync's error when it is missing.

rsend: push phone folders to a home SSH host over rsync 2026-01-01T00:00:00+00:00 Lena lena@omega 2026-01-01T00:00:00+00:00 7e04941bccb2683f8a6e3ee38a99c50129234dd1 A small Android app for one-way folder backup, a KISS alternative to Syncthing. It bundles rsync (built from pinned source via the NDK) and a pure-Go SSH transport, both shipped in the APK as lib*.so and run from the native library directory. rsend pins the host key, stores the ed25519 identity Keystore-encrypted, pushes each folder additively or as a mirror, and runs on demand or on a WiFi-only schedule. The build is self-contained and reproducible: make setup provisions the toolchain, make builds rsync, rsh, and the APK.
