Q: serious terminal bug
I have verified this bug only one one computer, but that one computer was freshly formatted, installed 10.10.3 directly, and the problem happens two ways:
rsync -avz /Shared\ Items/ root@remote.computer:/Volumes/Promise\ Pegasus/
Actually places a folder in the Volumes directory called Promise, and the command proceeds to fill up the boot volume with the contents of Shared Items from the old server.
Running the command as rsync -avz /Shared\ Items/ "root@remote.computer:/Volumes/Promise Pegasus/"
has the same bug. And to make it worse, it is random. The first try without the quotes failed. The second try with the quotes worked. The third try, with quotes, and as a final pass of rsync, also failed.
I cannot report this in bug reporter because for some reason it will not let either of my apple ID's to log in.
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
