1. It says:
-N, --newer=DATE only store files newer than DATE
--newer-mtime compare date and time when data changed only
--after-date=DATE same as -N
Judging by the code, it seems that --newer and --newer-mtime both
take an argument, so shouldn't that be --newer-mtime=DATE
-N, --newer=DATE only store files newer than DATE
--after-date=DATE same as -N
--newer-mtime=DATE same as -N, but compare date and time
when only data changed (mtime rather than ctime)
2. Should -N and its usage message really be conditional on !MSDOS?
All MSDOS that I'm familiar with have an mtime in their stat()
structures.
Mark.
