BUG FIXES:
+ - If rsync is interrupted via a handled signal (such as SIGINT), it will
+ once again clean-up its temp file from the destination dir.
+
- An rsync daemon that is receiving files with "use chroot = no" no longer
sanitizes the symlink target strings. This means that each symlink's
value will now be accepted (and thus returned) with its symlink info
of the module's path. These changes make a non-chroot daemon behave the
same way as a chroot daemon with regard to symlinks, and also avoids a
potential problem where a pre-existing symlink could have escaped the
- module's hierarchy.
+ module's hierarchy. See also the new "munge symlinks" daemon setting.
- Fixed an overzealous sanitizing bug in the handling of the --link-dest,
--copy-dest, and --compare-dest options to a daemon without chroot: if
process. (These problems could only affect an rsync daemon that was
receiving files.)
+ - Fixed a bug in the %f logfile escape when receiving files: the
+ destination path is now included in the output (e.g. you can now tell
+ when a user specifies a subdir inside a module).
+
+ - If the receiving side fails to create a directory, it will now skip
+ trying to update everything that is inside that directory.
+
- Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I
is specified.
- If --link-dest is specified with --checksum but without --times, rsync
will now allow a hard-link to be created to a matching link-dest file
- regardless of the file's modify-time.
+ even when the file's modify-time doesn't match the server's file.
- The daemon now calls more timezone-using functions prior to doing a
chroot. This should help some C libraries to generate proper timestamps
it with affecting the log-file output. (The old option remains as an
alias for the new to preserve backward compatibility.)
+ - Made "log file" and "syslog facility" settable on a per-module basis in
+ the daemon's config file.
+
+ - Added the "munge symlinks" daemon setting to enable the old-style
+ tweaking of "unsafe" symlinks, regardless of how "use chroot" is set.
