1 NEWS for rsync 3.1.0 (UNRELEASED)
2 Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
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.
10 - Improved the keep-alive in-loop check in the generator to work properly
11 in incremental recursion mode.
13 - Fixed a couple issues in the --fake-super handling of xattrs when the
14 destination files have root-level attributes (e.g. selinux values) that
15 a non-root copy can't affect.
19 - Added the --remote-option=OPT (-M OPT) command-line option that is useful
20 for things like sending a remote --log-file=FILE or --fake-super option.
22 - Added the --info=FLAGS and --debug=FLAGS options to allow finer-grained
23 control over what is output. Added an extra type of --progress output
24 using --info=progress2.
26 - Added the "%C" escape to the log-output handling, which will output the
27 MD5 checksum of any transferred file, or all files if --checksum was
28 specified (when protocol 30 or above is in effect).
30 - Rsync will not send an -e option to the server if the user specifies the
31 --protocol=29 option. This lets rsync3 use an overly-restrictive server.
35 - Added more conditional debug output.
37 - Really big numbers are now output using our own big-num routine rather
38 than casting them to a double and using a %.0f conversion.
40 - The pool_alloc library has received some minor improvements in alignment
43 - The Makefile will not halt for just a timestamp change on the Makefile
44 or the configure files, only for actual changes in content.
