I use luckyBackup to replace rsync to transfer files to server, but recently,
I've noticed there is a directory named .luckybackup-snaphots stored in the
destination directory.
How can I stop creating the directory in the destination?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
the .luckybackup-snapshots directory is only created when the user declares
more than 1 "snapshots to keep" at the "task properties" dialog.
Normally if this value is 1 then:
1. A .luckybackup-snapshots dir should not be created
2. A .luckybackup-snapshots dir should be deleted if the option "delete files on the destination" is checked
There is really lots of requests about the "snapshots" feature and I've put a
lot of effort to make it happen.
I'm kindof surprised that you ask for its removal :(
It seems that I cannot keep everybody happy at the same time and please excuse
me if I caused you trouble.
Anyway, the app should behave exactly the same as before if the user does not
fiddle at all with the snapshot feature.
If this is not true at your case please let me know...

Also, I suggest to remove the feature --- luckybackup-snaphots, or at least
tell the user what has changed in his rsync backup.
This will cause security hole, if the user use luckyBackup to deploy web application.
Since this is backup, should only backup what want to backup. luckyBackup add additional file in the backup.
I like luckyBackup, and believe it is a great tool to add value on rsync.
