| | 1 | NEWS for rsync 3.0.1 (UNRELEASED) |
| | 2 | Protocol: 30 (unchanged) |
| | 3 | Changes since 3.0.0: |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | BUG FIXES: |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | - Fixed a crash bug when a single-use rsync daemon (via remote shell) was |
| | 8 | run without specifying a --config=FILE option. |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | - Fixed a crash when backing up a directory that has a default ACL. |
| | 11 | |
| | 12 | - Fixed a bug in the handling of xattr values that could cause rsync to |
| | 13 | not think that a file's extended attributes are up-to-date. |
| | 14 | |
| | 15 | - Fixed the working of --fake-super with --link-dest and --xattrs. |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | - Fixed a hang when combining --dry-run with --remove-source-files. |
| | 18 | |
| | 19 | - Fixed the building of the rounding.h file on systems that need custom |
| | 20 | CPPFLAGS to be used. Also improved the error reporting if the building |
| | 21 | of rounding.h fails. |
| | 22 | |
| | 23 | - Fixed the use of the --protect-args (-s) option when talking to a daemon. |
| | 24 | |
| | 25 | - Fixed the --ignore-existing option's protection of files on the receiver |
| | 26 | that are non-regular files on the sender (e.g. if a symlink or a dir on |
| | 27 | the sender is trying to replace a file on the receiver). The reverse |
| | 28 | protection (protecting a dir/symlink/device from being replaced by a |
| | 29 | file) was already working. |
| | 30 | |
| | 31 | - Fixed an assert failure if --hard-links is combined with an option that |
| | 32 | can cause a file in a set of hard-linked files to be skipped (i.e. if |
| | 33 | --append, --ignore-existing, etc. affects one or more files in a hard- |
| | 34 | linked set of files, but not all of them). |
| | 35 | |
| | 36 | - Avoid setting the time on a directory that already has the modify time |
| | 37 | that we're setting. This avoids tweaking the dir's ctime. |
| | 38 | |
| | 39 | - Fixed the 'T'-flag itemizing of symlinks when --time isn't preserved. |
| | 40 | |
| | 41 | - Fixed a glitch in the itemizing of permissions with the -E option. |
| | 42 | |
| | 43 | - Added the 'c'-flag to the itemizing of non-regular files so that the |
| | 44 | itemized output doesn't get hidden if there were no attribute changes, |
| | 45 | and also so that the itemizing of a --copy-links run will distinguish |
| | 46 | between copying an identical non-regular file and the creation of a |
| | 47 | revised version with a new value (e.g. symlink referent, device |
| | 48 | numbers). |
| | 49 | |
| | 50 | - The --append option's restricting of transfers to those that add data no |
| | 51 | longer prevents the updating of non-content changes to otherwise up-to- |
| | 52 | date files (i.e. those with the same content but differing permissions, |
| | 53 | ownership, xattrs, etc.). |
| | 54 | |
| | 55 | - Don't allow --fake-super to be specified with -XX (double --xattrs) |
| | 56 | because they conflict. If a daemon has "fake super" enabled, it |
| | 57 | automatically downgrades a -XX request to -X. |
| | 58 | |
| | 59 | - A daemon doesn't try to auto-refuse the "iconv" option if iconv-support |
| | 60 | wasn't compiled in to the daemon (avoiding a warning in the logs). |
| | 61 | |
| | 62 | - Fixed the support/rrsync script to work with the latest options that |
| | 63 | rsync sends (including its flag-specifying use of -e to the server). |
| | 64 | |
| | 65 | ENHANCEMENTS: |
| | 66 | |
| | 67 | - When getting an error while asking an older rsync daemon for a file |
| | 68 | listing, rsync will try to notice if the error is a rejection of the |
| | 69 | --dirs (-d) option and let the user know how to work around the issue. |
| | 70 | |
| | 71 | - Added a few more --no-OPTION overrides. |
| | 72 | |
| | 73 | - Improved the documentation of the --append option. |
| | 74 | |
| | 75 | INTERNAL: |
| | 76 | |
| | 77 | - Fixed a couple minor bugs in the included popt library (ones which I |
| | 78 | sent to the official popt project for inclusion in the 1.14 release). |
| | 79 | |
| | 80 | - Fixed a stat() call that should have been do_stat() so that the proper |
| | 81 | normal/64-bit stat() function gets called. (Was in an area that should |
| | 82 | not have caused problems, though.) |
| | 83 | |
| | 84 | DEVELOPER RELATED: |
| | 85 | |
| | 86 | - The configure script tries to get the user's compiler to not warn about |
| | 87 | unused function parameters if the build is not including one or more of |
| | 88 | the ACL/xattrs/iconv features. |
| | 89 | |
| | 90 | - The configure script now has better checks for figuring out if the |
| | 91 | included popt should be used or not. |
| | 92 | |
| | 93 | - Updated the build scripts to work with a revised FTP directory |
| | 94 | structure. |
