1 | NEWS for rsync 2.6.5 (UNRELEASED) |
| 2 | Protocol: 29 (unchanged) | |
| 3 | Changes since 2.6.4: | |
| ac1541f4 WD |
4 | |
| 5 | BUG FIXES: | |
| 6 | ||
| 3ae6c187 WD |
7 | - A crash bug was fixed when a daemon had its "path" set to "/", did |
| 8 | not have chroot enabled, and used some anchored excludes in the | |
| 4f3f97fb | 9 | rsyncd.conf file. |
| e30b1fb8 | 10 | |
| 3ae6c187 WD |
11 | - Fixed a case where the generator might try to tweak the write |
| 12 | permissions of a read-only directory in list-only mode. | |
| 278e3d4f | 13 | |
| 67de72bd WD |
14 | - If --compare-dest or --link-dest uses a locally-copied file as the |
| 15 | basis for an updated version, log this better when --verbose or -i | |
| 4f3f97fb | 16 | is in effect. |
| 67de72bd | 17 | |
| 92739a0a WD |
18 | - Fixed the accidental disabling of --backup during the --delete-after |
| 19 | processing. | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | - Restored the ability to use the --address option in client mode (in | |
| 22 | addition to its use in daemon mode). | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | - Make sure that some temporary progress information from the delete | |
| 25 | processing does not get left on the screen when it is followed by a | |
| 26 | newline. | |
| 27 | ||
| b28a27e9 WD |
28 | - When --existing skips a directory with extra verbosity, don't refer |
| 29 | to it as a "file". | |
| 30 | ||
| ac1541f4 WD |
31 | ENHANCEMENTS: |
| 32 | ||
| 298d8c0a WD |
33 | - Added the --only-write-batch=FILE option that may be used (instead |
| 34 | of --write-batch=FILE) to create a batch file without doing any | |
| 35 | actual updating of the destination. | |
| 36 | ||
| 3ae6c187 WD |
37 | - Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped |
| 38 | characters rather than '?'s. Any non-printable character is output | |
| 39 | using octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and backslash is output as "\\". | |
| a897af2c | 40 | |
| d7d11b7e | 41 | - Improved the auth-errors that are logged by the daemon to include |
| f96154f4 | 42 | some information on why the authorization failed (wrong user, |
| b28a27e9 | 43 | password mismatch, etc.). (The client-visible message is unchanged.) |
| f96154f4 WD |
44 | |
| 45 | - Improved the client's handling of an "@ERROR" from a daemon so that | |
| 46 | it does not complain about an unexpectedly closed socket (since we | |
| 47 | really did expect the socket to close). | |
| 48 | ||
| a8fd4161 WD |
49 | INTERNAL: |
| 50 | ||
| 3ae6c187 | 51 | - Rsync now calls setlocale(LC_CTYPE, ""). |
| 00fd3548 | 52 | |
| ac1541f4 WD |
53 | BUILD CHANGES: |
| 54 | ||
| d7d11b7e WD |
55 | - Fixed a bug in the SUPPORT{,_HARD}_LINKS defines which prevented |
| 56 | rsync from being built without symlink or hard-link support. | |
| 57 | ||
| 3ae6c187 | 58 | - You can use --disable-locale to turn off any use of setlocale(). |
| 92739a0a WD |
59 | |
| 60 | - Configure now disables the use of mkstemp() under HP-UX (since they | |
| 61 | refuse to fix its broken handling of large files). | |
| 62 | ||
| 63 | - Configure now explicitly checks for the lseek64() function so that | |
| 64 | the code can use HAVE_LSEEK64 instead of inferring lseek64()'s | |
| 65 | presence based on the presence of the off64_t type. |
