BUG FIXES:
- - Fixed a potential buffer overflow in the xattr code.
+ - Initialize xattr data in a couple spots in the hlink code, which avoids a
+ crash when the xattr pointer's memory happens to start out non-zero.
+ Also fixed the itemizing of an alt-dest file's xattrs when hard-linking.
- ENHANCEMENTS:
+ - Don't send a bogus "-" option to an older server if there were no short
+ options specified.
- - None.
+ - Fixed skipping of unneeded updates in a batch file when incremental
+ recursion is active. Added a test for this. Made batch-mode handle
+ redos properly (and without hanging).
- DEVELOPER RELATED:
+ - Fix the %P logfile escape when the daemon logs from inside a chroot.
- - The RPM spec file was improved to install more useful files.
+ - Properly ignore (superfluous) source args on a --read-batch command.
- - A few developer-oriented scripts were moved from the support dir
- to the packaging dir.
+ - Improved the manpage's description of the '*' wildcard to remove the
+ confusing "non-empty" qualifier.
