pslurp can't use rsync

GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · 2 comments

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Any invocation of pslurp (that I've tried).

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expected pslurp to use rsync, but it seems to use scp.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

pssh 2.2.2 on Ubuntu 12.04.

Please provide any additional information below.

This is more of a feature request than a bug report I guess... It'd be nice if 
pslurp (or some other command like pslurp) could fetch files from multiple 
remote hosts to one local hosts, but using rsync. Basically the exact converse 
of prsync.

(The particular rsync features I miss are the ability to copy a directory to 
either a subdirectory or the current directory on the target; and the 
preservation of file modification times.)

That seems like a reasonable feature.

To this post I've attached a modified version that will take a --rsync option 
to use rsync rather than scp.
