BUG FIXES:
BUG FIXES:
- - Fixed a bug in the exclude code where an anchored exclude without any
- wildcards fails to match an absolute source arg, but only when --relative
- is in effect.
+ - Fixed a wildcard matching problem in the daemon when a module has
+ "use chroot" enabled.
- - Improved the I/O code for the generator to fix a potential hang when the
- receiver gets an EOF on the socket but the generator's select() call
- never indicates that the socket is writable for it to be notified about
- the EOF. (This can happen when using stunnel).
+ - Fixed a crash bug in the hard-link code.
- - Fixed a problem with the file-reading code where a failed read (such as
- that caused by a bad sector) would not advance the file's read-position
- beyond the failed read's data.
+ - Fixed the combination of --xattrs and --backup.
- - Fixed a logging bug where the "log file" directive was not being honored
- in a single-use daemon (one spawned by a remote-shell connection or by
- init).
+ - The generator no longer allows a '.' dir to be excluded by a daemon-
+ exclude rule.
- - If rsync cannot honor the --delete option, we output an error and exit
- instead of silently ignoring the option.
+ - Fixed the conversion of spaces into dashes in the %M log escape.
- - The ability to hard-link symlinks and special files is now determined at
- configure time instead of at runtime. This fixes a bug with --link-dest
- creating a hard-link to a symlink's referent on a BSD system.
+ - Fixed several places in the code that were not returning the right
+ errno when a function failed.
- ENHANCEMENTS:
+ - Moved the setting of the socket options prior to the connect().
- - I
n daemon mode, if rsync fails to bind to the requested port, the
-
error(s) returned by socket() and/or bind() are now logged
.
+ - I
f rsync exits in the middle of a --progress output, it now outputs a
+
newline to prevent the progress line from being overwritten
.
- -
When we output a fatal error, we now output the version of rsync in the
-
message
.
+ -
Fixed a problem with how a destination path with a trailing slash was
+
compared against the daemon excludes
.
- - The rsyncstats script in "support" has an improved line-parsing regex
- that is easier to read and also makes it to parse syslog-generated lines.
+ - Use the overflow_exit() function for overflows, not out_of_memory().
- - A new script in "support": file-attr-restore, can be used to restore the
- attributes of a file-set (the permissions, ownership, and group info)
- taken from the cached output of a "find ARG... -ls" command.
+ ENHANCEMENTS:
- DEVELOPER RELATED:
+ - The rsyncd.conf manpage now consistently refers to the parameters in
+ the daemon config file as "parameters".
- - Removd two unused configure checks and two related (also unused)
- compatibility functions.
+ - The description of the --inplace option was improved.
+
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
- - The acls.diff patch has been improved quite a bit, with more to come.
+ - Fixed a testcase failure if the tests are run as root and made some
+ compatibility improvements.
- - A new patch was added: log-file.diff. This contains an early version of
- a future option, --log-file=FILE, that will allow any rsync to log its
- actions to a file (something that only a daemon supports at present).
+ - Ensure that the early patches don't cause any generated-file hunks to
+ bleed-over into patches that follow.
