| | 1 | NEWS for rsync 2.6.7 (UNRELEASED) |
| | 2 | Protocol: 29 (unchanged) |
| | 3 | Changes since 2.6.6: |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | BUG FIXES: |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | - Made hard-linked symlinks and devices work again. |
| | 8 | |
| | 9 | - If the user specifies a remote-host for both the source and destination, |
| | 10 | we now output a syntax error rather than trying to open the destination |
| | 11 | hostspec as a filename. |
| | 12 | |
| | 13 | - When --inplace creates a new destination file, rsync now creates it with |
| | 14 | permissions 0600 instead of 0000 -- this makes restarting possible when |
| | 15 | the transfer gets interrupted in the middle of sending a new file. |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | ENHANCEMENTS: |
| | 18 | |
| | 19 | - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files |
| | 20 | that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new |
| | 21 | files). |
| | 22 | |
| | 23 | - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the |
| | 24 | preservation of attributes on symlinks. |
| | 25 | |
| | 26 | - Added two config items to the rsyncd.conf parsing: "pre-xfer exec" |
| | 27 | and "post-xfer exec". These allow a command to be specified on a |
| | 28 | per-module basis that will be run before and/or after a daemon-mode |
| | 29 | transfer. |
| | 30 | |
| | 31 | INTERNAL: |
| | 32 | |
| | 33 | - Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where |
| | 34 | MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin). |
| | 35 | |
| | 36 | - If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit |
| | 37 | with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer. |
