1 NEWS for rsync 2.6.2 (30 Apr 2004)
2 Protocol: 28 (unchanged)
7 - Fixed a major bug in the sorting of the filenames when --relative
8 is used for some sources (just sources such as "/" and "/*" were
9 affected). This fix ensures that we ask for the right file-list
10 item when requesting changes from the sender.
12 - Rsync now checks the return value of the close() function to
13 better report disk-full problems on an NFS file system.
15 - Restored the old daemon-server behavior of logging error messages
16 rather than returning them to the user. (A better long-term fix
17 will be sought in the future.)
19 - An obscure uninitialized-variable bug was fixed in the uid/gid
20 code. (This bug probably had no ill effects.)
24 - Got rid of the configure check for sys/sysctl.h (it wasn't used
25 and was causing a problem on some systems). Also improved the
26 broken-largefile-locking test to try to avoid failure due to an
29 - Fixed a compile problem on systems that don't define
32 - Fixed a compile problem in the popt source for compilers that
33 don't support __attribute__.
37 - Improved the testsuite's "merge" test to work on OSF1.
39 - Two new diffs were added to the patches dir.
42 NEWS for rsync 2.6.1 (26 Apr 2004)
43 Protocol: 28 (changed)
48 - Paths sent to an rsync daemon are more thoroughly sanitized when
49 chroot is not used. If you're running a non-read-only rsync
50 daemon with chroot disabled, *please upgrade*, ESPECIALLY if the
51 user privs you run rsync under is anything above "nobody".
55 - Lower memory use, more optimal transfer of data over the socket,
56 and lower CPU usage (see the INTERNAL section for details).
58 - The RSYNC_PROXY environment variable can now contain a
59 "USER:PASS@" prefix before the "HOST:PORT" information.
62 - The --progress output now mentions how far along in the transfer
63 we are, including both a count of files transferred and a
64 percentage of the total file-count that we've processed. It also
65 shows better current-rate-of-transfer and remaining-transfer-time
68 - Documentation changes now attempt to describe some often mis-
69 understood features more clearly.
73 - When -x (--one-file-system) is combined with -L (--copy-links) or
74 --copy-unsafe-links, no symlinked files are skipped, even if the
75 referent file is on a different filesystem.
77 - The --link-dest code now works properly for a non-root user when
78 (1) the UIDs of the source and destination differ and -o was
79 specified, or (2) when the group of the source can't be used on
80 the destination and -g was specified.
82 - Fixed a bug in the handling of -H (hard-links) that might cause
83 the expanded PATH/NAME value of the current item to get
84 overwritten (due to an expanded-name caching bug).
86 - We now reset the "new data has been sent" flag at the start of
87 each file we send. This makes sure that an interrupted transfer
88 with the --partial option set doesn't keep a shorter temp file
89 than the current basis file when no new data has been transfered
90 over the wire for that file.
92 - Fixed a byte-order problem in --batch-mode on big-endian machines.
95 - When using --cvs-exclude, the exclude items we get from a
96 per-directory's .cvsignore file once again only affect that one
97 directory (not all following directories too). The items are also
98 now properly word-split and parsed without any +/- prefix parsing.
100 - When specifying the USER@HOST: prefix for a file, the USER part
101 can now contain an '@', if needed (i.e. the last '@' is used to
102 find the HOST, not the first).
104 - Fixed some bugs in the handling of group IDs for non-root users:
105 (1) It properly handles a group that the sender didn't have a name
106 for (it would previously skip changing the group on any files in
107 that group). (2) If --numeric-ids is used, rsync no longer
108 attempts to set groups that the user doesn't have the permission
111 - Fixed the "refuse options" setting in the rsyncd.conf file.
113 - Improved the -x (--one-file-system) flag's handling of any mount-
114 point directories we encounter. It is both more optimal (in that
115 it no longer does a useless scan of the contents of the mount-
116 point dirs) and also fixes a bug where a remapped mount of the
117 original filesystem could get discovered in a subdir we should be
120 - Rsync no longer discards a double-slash at the start of a filename
121 when trying to open the file. It also no longer constructs names
122 that start with a double slash (unless the user supplied them).
124 - Path-specifying options to a daemon should now work the same with
125 or without chroot turned on. Previously, such a option (such as
126 --link-dest) would get its absolute path munged into a relative
127 one if chroot was not on, making that setting fairly useless.
128 Rsync now transforms the path into one that is based on the
129 module's base dir when chroot is not enabled.
131 - Fixed a compatibility problem interacting with older rsync
132 versions that might send us an empty --suffix value without
133 telling us that --backup-dir was specified.
135 - The "hosts allow" option for a daemon-over-remote-shell process
136 now has improved support for IPv6 addresses and a fix for systems
137 that have a length field in their socket structs.
139 - Fixed the ability to request an empty backup --suffix when sending
140 files to an rsync daemon.
144 - Most of the I/O is now buffered, which results in a pretty large
145 speedup when running under MS Windows. (Craig Barratt)
147 - Optimizations to the name-handling/comparing code have made some
148 significant reductions in user-CPU time for large file sets.
150 - Some cleanup of the variable types make the code more consistent.
152 - Reduced memory requirements of hard link preservation.
155 - Implemented a new algorithm for hard-link handling that speeds up
156 the code significantly. (J.W. Schultz and Wayne Davison)
158 - The --hard-link option now uses the first existing file in the
159 group of linked files as the basis for the transfer. This
160 prevents the sub-optimal transfer of a file's data when a new
161 hardlink is added on the sending side and it sorts alphabetically
162 earlier in the list than the files that are already present on the
165 - Dropped support for protocol versions less than 20 (2.3.0 released
166 15 Mar 1999) and activated warnings for protocols less than 25
167 (2.5.0 released 23 Aug 2001). (Wayne Davison and J.W. Schultz,
170 - More optimal data transmission for --hard-links (protocol 28).
172 - More optimal data transmission for --checksum (protocol 28).
174 - Less memory is used when --checksum is specified.
176 - Less memory is used in the file list (a per-file savings).
178 - The generator is now better about not modifying the file list
179 during the transfer in order to avoid a copy-on-write memory
180 bifurcation (on systems where fork() uses shared memory).
181 Previously, rsync's shared memory would slowly become unshared,
182 resulting in real memory usage nearly doubling on the receiving
183 side by the end of the transfer. Now, as long as permissions
184 are being preserved, the shared memory should remain that way
185 for the entire transfer.
187 - Changed hardlink info and file_struct + strings to use allocation
188 pools. This reduces memory use for large file-sets and permits
189 freeing memory to the OS. (J.W. Schultz)
191 - The 2 pipes used between the receiver and generator processes
192 (which are forked on the same machine) were reduced to 1 pipe and
193 the protocol improved so that (1) it is now impossible to have the
194 "redo" pipe fill up and hang rsync, and (2) trailing messages from
195 the receiver don't get lost on their way through the generator
196 over to the sender (which mainly affected hard-link messages and
197 verbose --stats output).
199 - Improved the internal uid/gid code to be more portable and a
200 little more optimized.
202 - The device numbers sent when using --devices are now sent as
203 separate major/minor values with 32-bit accuracy (protocol 28).
204 Previously, the copied devices were sent as a single 32-bit
205 number. This will make inter-operation of 64-bit binaries more
206 compatible with their 32-bit brethren (with both ends of the
207 connection are using protocol 28). Note that optimizations in the
208 binary protocol for sending the device numbers often results in
209 fewer bytes being used than before, even though more precision is
212 - Some cleanup of the exclude/include structures and its code made
213 things clearer (internally), simpler, and more efficient.
215 - The reading & writing of the file-list in batch-mode is now
216 handled by the same code that sends & receives the list over the
217 wire. This makes it much easier to maintain. (Note that the
218 batch code is still considered to be experimental.)
222 - The configure script now accepts --with-rsyncd-conf=PATH to
223 override the default value of the /etc/rsyncd.conf file.
225 - Fixed configure bug when running "./configure --disable-ipv6".
227 - Fixed compilation problem on Tru64 Unix (having to do with
228 sockaddr.sa_len and sockaddr.sin_len).
232 - Fixed "make test" bug when build dir is not the source dir.
234 - Added a couple extra diffs in the "patches" dir, removed the ones
235 that got applied, and rebuilt the rest.
238 NEWS for rsync 2.6.0 (1 Jan 2004)
239 Protocol: 27 (changed)
244 * "ssh" is now the default remote shell for rsync. If you want to
245 change this, configure like this: "./configure --with-rsh=rsh".
247 * Added --files-from, --no-relative, --no-implied-dirs, and --from0.
248 Note that --from0 affects the line-ending character for all the
249 files read by the --*-from options. (Wayne Davison)
251 * Length of csum2 is now per-file starting with protocol version
254 * Per-file dynamic block size is now sqrt(file length). The
255 per-file checksum size is determined according to an algorithm
256 provided by Donovan Baarda which reduces the probability of rsync
257 algorithm corrupting data and falling back using the whole md4
258 checksums. (J.W. Schultz, Donovan Baarda)
260 * The --stats option no longer includes the (debug) malloc summary
261 unless the verbose option was specified at least twice.
263 * Added a new error/warning code for when files vanish from the
264 sending side. Made vanished source files not interfere with the
265 file-deletion pass when --delete-after was specified.
267 * Various trailing-info sections are now preceded by a newline.
271 * Fixed several exclude/include matching bugs when using wild-cards.
272 This has a several user-visible effects, all of which make the
273 matching more consistent and intuitive. This should hopefully not
274 cause anyone problems since it makes the matching work more like
275 what people are expecting. (Wayne Davison)
277 - A pattern with a "**" no longer causes a "*" to match slashes.
278 For example, with "/*/foo/**", "foo" must be 2 levels deep.
279 [If your string has BOTH "*" and "**" wildcards, changing the
280 "*" wildcards to "**" will provide the old behavior in all
283 - "**/foo" now matches at the base of the transfer (like /foo
284 does). [Use "/**/foo" to get the old behavior in all versions.]
286 - A non-anchored wildcard term floats to match beyond the base of
287 the transfer. E.g. "CVS/R*" matches at the end of the path,
288 just like the non-wildcard term "CVS/Root" does. [Use "/CVS/R*"
289 to get the old behavior in all versions.]
291 - Including a "**" in the match term causes it to be matched
292 against the entire path, not just the name portion, even if
293 there aren't any interior slashes in the term. E.g. "foo**bar"
294 would exclude "/path/foo-bar" (just like before) as well as
295 "/foo-path/baz-bar" (unlike before). [Use "foo*bar" to get the
296 old behavior in all versions.]
298 * The exclude list specified in the daemon's config file is now
299 properly applied to the pulled items no matter how deep the
300 user's file-args are in the source tree. (Wayne Davison)
302 * For protocol version >= 27, mdfour_tail() is called when the
303 block size (including checksum_seed) is a multiple of 64.
304 Previously it was not called, giving the wrong MD4 checksum.
307 * For protocol version >= 27, a 64 bit bit counter is used in
308 mdfour.c as required by the RFC. Previously only a 32 bit bit
309 counter was used, causing incorrect MD4 file checksums for
310 file sizes >= 512MB - 4. (Craig Barratt)
312 * Fixed a crash bug when interacting with older rsync versions and
313 multiple files of the same name are destined for the same dir.
316 * Keep tmp names from overflowing MAXPATHLEN.
318 * Make --link-dest honor the absence of -p, -o, and -g.
320 * Made rsync treat a trailing slash in the destination in a more
323 * Fixed file I/O error detection. (John Van Essen)
325 * Fixed bogus "malformed address {hostname}" message in rsyncd log
326 when checking IP address against hostnames from "hosts allow"
327 and "hosts deny" parameters in config file.
329 * Print heap statistics when verbose >= 2 instead of when >= 1.
331 * Fixed a compression (-z) bug when syncing a mostly-matching file
332 that contains already-compressed data. (Yasuoka Masahiko and
335 * Fixed a bug in the --backup code that could cause deleted files
336 to not get backed up.
338 * When the backup code makes new directories, create them with mode
339 0700 instead of 0755 (since the directory permissions in the
340 backup tree are not yet copied from the main tree).
342 * Call setgroups() in a more portable manner.
344 * Improved file-related error messages to better indicate exactly
345 what pathname failed. (Wayne Davison)
347 * Fixed some bugs in the handling of --delete and --exclude when
348 using the --relative (-R) option. (Wayne Davison)
350 * Fixed bug that prevented regular files from replacing
351 special files and caused a directory in --link-dest or
352 --compare-dest to block the creation of a file with the
353 same path. A directory still cannot be replaced by a
354 regular file unless --delete specified. (J.W. Schultz)
356 * Detect and report when open or opendir succeed but read and
357 readdir fail caused by network filesystem issues and truncated
358 files. (David Norwood, Michael Brown, J.W. Schultz)
360 * Added a fix that should give ssh time to restore the tty settings
361 if the user presses Ctrl-C at an ssh password prompt.
365 * Eliminated vestigial support for old versions that we stopped
366 supporting. (J.W. Schultz)
368 * Simplified some of the option-parsing code. (Wayne Davison)
370 * Some cleanup made to the exclude code, as well as some new
371 defines added to enhance readability. (Wayne Davison)
373 * Changed the protocol-version code so that it can interact at a
374 lower protocol level than the maximum supported by both sides.
375 Added an undocumented option, --protocol=N, to force the value
376 we advertise to the other side (primarily for testing purposes).

433 * Fix "forward name lookup failed" errors on AIX 4.3.3. (John
434 L. Allen, Martin Pool)
436 * Generate each file's rolling-checksum data as we send it, not
437 in a separate (memory-eating) pass before hand. This prevents
438 timeout errors on really large files. (Stefan Nehlsen)

448 * Fixed the file-name duplicate-removal code when dealing with multiple
449 dups in a row. (Wayne Davison)

452 processes and sometimes return an exit code of 0 instead of showing
453 an error. (David R. Staples, Dave Dykstra)

718 * More details in --version, including note about whether 64-bit
719 files, symlinks and hardlinks are supported.
721 * MD4 code may use less CPU cycles.
723 * Use mkstemp on systems where it is secure. If we use mktemp,
724 explain that we do it in a secure way.
726 * --whole-file is the default when source and target are on the
731 * Fix for various bugs causing rsync to hang.
733 * Attempt to fix Large File Summit support on AIX.
735 * Attempt to fix error handling lockup bug.
737 * Give a non-0 exit code if *any* of the files we have been asked
738 to transfer fail to transfer.
740 * For log messages containing ridiculously long strings that might
741 overflow a buffer rsync no longer aborts, but rather prints an
742 ellipsis at the end of the string. (Patch from Ed Santiago.)
746 * Improved support for UNICOS (tested on Cray T3E and Cray SV1)
748 * autoconf2.52 (or later) is now required to rebuild the autoconf
749 scripts. It is not required to simply build rsync.
