-rsync changes since last release
+NEWS for rsync 2.6.7 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
+Changes since 2.6.6:
- ENHANCEMENTS:
+ BUG FIXES:
- * "make install-strip" works. (Greg Louis)
+ - If the user specifies a remote-host for both the source and destination,
+ we now output a syntax error rather than trying to open the destination
+ hostspec as a filename.
- * With --progress, if we've finished transferring a file, show the
- time taken; otherwise show expected time to complete. (Cameron
- Simpson)
+ ENHANCEMENTS:
- BUG FIXES:
+ - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files
+ that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new
+ files).
+
+ - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
+ preservation of attributes on symlinks.
- * Fix test suite on Solaris. (Jos Backus)
+ - Added two config items to the rsyncd.conf parsing: "pre-xfer exec"
+ and "post-xfer exec". These allow a command to be specified on a
+ per-module basis that will be run before and/or after a daemon-mode
+ transfer.
