| 60ef8ed1 | 1 | NEWS for rsync 2.6.9 (unreleased) |
| 3ae6c187 | 2 | Protocol: 29 (unchanged) |
| 60ef8ed1 | 3 | Changes since 2.6.8: |
| 36f59b58 | 4 | |
| ac1541f4 WD |
5 | BUG FIXES: |
| 6 | ||
| 5fdbb87d | 7 | - An rsync daemon that is receiving files with "use chroot = no" no longer |
| 2220ec0a WD |
8 | sanitizes the symlink target strings. This means that each symlink's |
| 9 | value will now be accepted (and thus returned) with its symlink info | |
| 5fdbb87d WD |
10 | intact. Also, in order to keep things safe, any option that tells a |
| 11 | non-chroot daemon to treat some symlinks as their referent (such as | |
| 12 | --copy-links or --keep-dirlinks) now manually checks the symlink chain | |
| 13 | to ensure that the symlinks do not try to escape past the top of the | |
| 2220ec0a WD |
14 | module's path. Both these changes make a non-chroot daemon behave the |
| 15 | same as a chroot daemon with regard to symlinks, and also avoids a | |
| 16 | potential problem where a pre-existing symlink could have escaped the | |
| 17 | module's hierarchy. | |
| 5fdbb87d WD |
18 | |
| 19 | - Fixed a overzealous sanitizing bug in the handling of the --*-dest | |
| 20 | options (--link-dest, --copy-dest, and --compare-dest): if the copy's | |
| 21 | destination dir is deeper than the top of the module's path, these | |
| 22 | options now accept a safe number of ../ (parent-dir) references (since | |
| 23 | these options are relative to the destination dir). The old code | |
| 24 | incorrectly chopped off all "../" prefixes for these options, no matter | |
| 25 | how deep the destination directory was in the hierarchy. | |

| bdac7621 WD |
27 | - Fixed a bug where a deferred info/error/log message could get sent |
| 28 | directly to the sender instead of being handled by rwrite() in the | |
| 29 | generator. This fixes an "unexpected tag 3" fatal error, and should | |
| 30 | also fix a potential problem where a deferred info/error message from | |
| 31 | the receiver might bypass the log file and get sent only to the client | |
| 32 | process. (These problems could only affect an rsync daemon that was | |
| 33 | receiving files.) | |

| d8bf7ea8 WD |
35 | - Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I |
| 36 | or --size-only is specified. | |
| 08c0cd8a | 37 | |
| 5fdbb87d WD |
38 | - The daemon now calls more timezone-using functions prior to doing a |
| 39 | chroot. | |

47 | - The acls.diff and xattrs.diff patches have received a bunch of work to |
| 48 | make them much closer to being acceptable in the main distribution. | |
| 49 | ||
| 60ef8ed1 | 50 | - Updated config.guess and config.sub to their 2006-02-23 version. |

| 52 | - Updated various files to include the latest FSF address and to have | |
| 53 | consistent opening comments. |
