OSX Extended Attributes

Help and Support
1

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

Is there a way to keep the OSX extended attributes while backing up to eb backblaze?
While copying files like my.sparesebundle. my.idml my.scriv etc
I end up with a directory structure.

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

version v1.74.4

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

in this szenario: backblaze

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

eg. rclone copy source b2:target

It's the so-called Bundle-Bit, and that is, afaik, not (yet) supported.

Any other ideas are appreciated.

I first thought of running a recursive search and zip all folders with that bundle bit, skipping the folders, and delete them after backup.

But I don’t find that elegant enough, not to mention the fact that it’s prone to errors.
