[reposting this, as I sent it 2.5 hours ago but nothing's come through,
whereas my post to bugs@ came back to me in minutes - apologies for any
duplicates]
Hey again,
The attached patch adds a new option to cpdup, -u, which causes cpdup's
logging output to be unbuffered.
Since this could rightly be perceived as a bit of feature creep, I'll
try to explain why it's useful in the installer:
The installer popen()'s "cpdup -vvv src dest" and it reads from this
pipe to monitor cpdup's progress. Unfortunately, since cpdup's output
is fully buffered, cpdup's progress can't be usefully measured this way.
This patch simply gives us a way to make cpdup's output unbuffered, so
we can get it through the pipe as cpdup generates it.
If there are no objections, I'll commit this in two days.
-Chris
