1 NEWS for rsync 3.0.4 (UNRELEASED)
2 Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
7 - Fixed a bug in the hard-linking code where it would sometimes try to
8 allocate 0 bytes of memory (which fails on some OSes, such as AIX).
10 - Fixed the hard-linking of files from a device that has a device number
11 of 0 (which seems to be a common device number on NetBSD).
13 - Fixed a couple issues in the --fake-super handling of xattrs when the
14 destination files have root-level attributes (e.g. selinux values) that
15 a non-root copy can't affect.
17 - Improved the keep-alive check in the generator to fire consistently in
18 incremental-recursion mode when --timeout is enabled.
20 - Fixed a potential alignment issue in the IRIX ACL code when allocating
21 the initial "struct acl" object. Also, cast mallocs to avoid warnings.
23 - Changed some errors that were going to stdout to go to stderr.
27 - Rsync will avoid sending an -e option to the server if an older protocol
28 is requested (and thus the option would not be useful). This lets the
29 user specify the --protocol=29 option to access an overly-restrictive
30 server that is rejecting the protocol-30 use of -e to the server.
34 - The Makefile will not halt for just a timestamp change on the Makefile
35 or the configure files, only for actual changes in content.
37 - Enhanced the release scripts to be able to handle a branch release.
