Description Stanislav Brabec 2015-03-11 21:12:19 UTC 
While calling

/usr/bin/rsync --verbose -e ssh -l -rltzuHAX --delete --force --exclude="*~" --exclude=feed --exclude="upload" --exclude=spam_statistics.html ~sb/public_html/penguin/public_html/ utx@penguin.cz:public_html/

I experienced following abort message during syncing:

rsync: hlink.c:536: finish_hard_link: Assertion `node != ((void *)0) && node->data != ((void *)0)' failed.
rsync: [sender] write error: Broken pipe (32)
rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(829) [sender=3.1.1]

The bug can not be reproduces. It was never seen before and next call of the same command succeeded as well.
