1 NEWS for rsync 2.6.9 (unreleased)
2 Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
7 - Fixed the sanitizing of acceptable ../ dirs in 2 cases where an rsync
8 daemon is receiving files when "use chroot" is not enabled and the
9 destination dir is not at the top of the module's path: both the value
10 of a symlink and the arg of the --FOO-dest options (i.e. --link-dest,
11 --copy-dest, and --compare-dest) now know how deep the destination dir
12 is in the module, and allow a safe number of ../ references instead of
13 preventing the references from leaving the destination hierarchy (use
14 the age-old --safe-links for that behavior).
16 - Fixed a bug where a deferred FLOG message would get sent from the
17 generator to the sender instead of being handled by rwrite(). This
18 fixes the "unexpected tag 3" fatal error.
20 - Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I
21 or --size-only is specified.
29 - The acls.diff and xattrs.diff patches have received a bunch of work to
30 make them much closer to being acceptable in the main distribution.
32 - Updated config.guess and config.sub to their 2006-02-23 version.
34 - Updated various files to include the latest FSF address and to have
35 consistent opening comments.
