Reported by pepa65 on 2012-06-03 08:18 UTC
A configuration with a single backup-level with retain=1 and sync_first=1 will retain a 2 copy, and fail in future calls.

In rsnapshot.conf the only retain line:
retain level 1
sync_first 1

Calls:

  1. rsnapshot sync -> .sync created
  2. rsnapshot level -> level.0 created
  3. rsnapshot sync -> .sync created
  4. rsnapshot level -> level.1 created [unexpected]
  5. rsnapshot sync -> .sync created
  6. rsnapshot level -> Error: could not rename level.0 to level.1

In call 4 it should have just moved .sync to level.0
