| | 1 | NEWS for rsync 3.1.0 (UNRELEASED) |
| | 2 | Protocol: 31 (changed) |
| | 3 | Changes since 3.0.4: |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | BUG FIXES: |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | - Changed the way --progress overwrites its prior output in order to make |
| | 8 | it nearly impossible for the progress to get overwritten by an error. |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | ENHANCEMENTS: |
| | 11 | |
| | 12 | - Added the --remote-option=OPT (-M OPT) command-line option that is useful |
| | 13 | for things like sending a remote --log-file=FILE or --fake-super option. |
| | 14 | |
| | 15 | - Added the --info=FLAGS and --debug=FLAGS options to allow finer-grained |
| | 16 | control over what is output. Added an extra type of --progress output |
| | 17 | using --info=progress2. |
| | 18 | |
| | 19 | - Output numbers in 3-digit groups by default (e.g. 1,234,567). See the |
| | 20 | --human-readable option for a way to turn it off. See also the daemon's |
| | 21 | "log format" parameter for a modifier that can request digit-grouping or |
| | 22 | human-readable output in log escapes (including --out-format). |
| | 23 | |
| | 24 | - Added a "T" (terabyte) category to the --human-readable size suffixes. |
| | 25 | |
| | 26 | - Enhanced the --stats output: 1) to mention how many files were created |
| | 27 | (protocol >= 28), 2) to mention how many files were deleted (new for |
| | 28 | protocol 31), and 3) to follow the file-count, created-count, and |
| | 29 | deleted-count with a break-out list of each count by type. |
| | 30 | |
| | 31 | - Added the --usermap/--groupmap/--chown options for manipulating file |
| | 32 | ownership during the copy. |
| | 33 | |
| | 34 | - Added the "%C" escape to the log-output handling, which will output the |
| | 35 | MD5 checksum of any transferred file, or all files if --checksum was |
| | 36 | specified (when protocol 30 or above is in effect). |
| | 37 | |
| | 38 | - Added the "reverse lookup" parameter to the rsync daemon config file to |
| | 39 | allow reverse-DNS lookups to be disabled. |
| | 40 | |
| | 41 | - Added a way for supplementary groups to be specified in the rsyncd.conf |
| | 42 | file. Also made explicitly-set uid/gid values no longer ignored by a |
| | 43 | daemon that was not run by a super-user. |
| | 44 | |
| | 45 | EXTRAS: |
| | 46 | |
| | 47 | - Added an "instant-rsyncd" script to the support directory, which makes |
| | 48 | it easy to configure a simple rsync daemon in the current directory. |
| | 49 | |
| | 50 | - Added the "mapfrom" and "mapto" scripts to the support directory, which |
| | 51 | makes it easier to do user/group mapping in a local transfer based on |
| | 52 | passwd/group files from another machine. |
| | 53 | |
| | 54 | DEVELOPER RELATED: |
| | 55 | |
| | 56 | - Added more conditional debug output. |
| | 57 | |
| | 58 | - Really big numbers are now output using our own big-num routine rather |
| | 59 | than casting them to a double and using a %.0f conversion. |
| | 60 | |
| | 61 | - The pool_alloc library has received some minor improvements in alignment |
| | 62 | handling. |
| | 63 | |
| | 64 | - Added init_stat_x() function to avoid duplication of acl/xattr init code. |
