- * Fixed several exclude/include matching bugs when using wild-cards.
- This has a several user-visible effects, all of which make the
- matching more consistent and intuitive. This should hopefully not
- cause anyone problems since it makes the matching work more like
- what people are expecting. (Wayne Davison)
-
- - A pattern with a "**" no longer causes a "*" to match slashes.
- For example, with "/*/foo/**", "foo" must be 2 levels deep.
-
- - "**/foo" now matches at the base of the transfer (i.e. /foo).
-
- - An non-anchored wildcard term floats to match beyond the base of
- the transfer. E.g. "CVS/R*" matches at the end of the path,
- just like the non-wildcard term "CVS/Root" does.
-
- - Including a "**" in the match term causes it to be matched
- against the entire path, not just the name portion, even if
- there aren't any interior slashes in the term. E.g. "foo**bar"
- would exclude "/path/foo-bar" (just like before) as well as
- "/foo-path/baz-bar" (for instance).
-
- * The exclude list specified in the daemon's config file is now
- properly applied to the pulled items no matter how deep the
- user's file-args are in the source tree. (Wayne Davison)
-
- * For protocol version >= 27, mdfour_tail() is called when the
- block size (including checksum_seed) is a multiple of 64.
- Previously it was not called, giving the wrong MD4 checksum.
- (Craig Barratt)
-
- * For protocol version >= 27, a 64 bit bit counter is used in
- mdfour.c as required by the RFC. Previously only a 32 bit bit
- counter was used, causing incorrect MD4 file checksums for
- file sizes >= 512MB - 4. (Craig Barratt)
-
- * Fixed a crash bug when interacting with older rsync versions and
- multiple files of the same name are destined for the same dir.
- (Wayne Davison)
-
- * Keep tmp names from overflowing MAXPATHLEN.
-
- * Make --link-dest honor the absence of -p, -o, and -g.
-
- * Made rsync treat a trailing slash in the destination in a more
- consistent manner.
-
- * Fixed file I/O error detection. (John Van Essen)
-
- * Fixed bogus "malformed address {hostname}" message in rsyncd log
- when checking IP address against hostnames from "hosts allow"
- and "hosts deny" parameters in config file.
-
- * Print heap statistics when verbose >= 2 instead of when >= 1.
-
- * Fixed a compression (-z) bug when syncing a mostly-matching file
- that contains already-compressed data. (Yasuoka Masahiko and
- Wayne Davison)
-
- * Fixed a bug in the --backup code that could cause deleted files
- to not get backed up.
-
- * Call setgroups() in a more portable manner.
-
- * Improved file-related error messages to better indicate exactly
- what pathname failed. (Wayne Davison)
-
- * Fixed some bugs in the handling of --delete and --exclude when
- using the --relative (-R) option. (Wayne Davison)
-
- * Fixed bug that prevented regular files from replacing
- special files and caused a directory in --link-dest or
- --compare-dest to block the creation of a file with the
- same path. A directory still cannot be replaced by a
- regular file unless --delete specified. (J.W. Schultz)
-
- * Detect and report when open or opendir succeed but read and
- readdir fail caused by network filesystems issues and truncated
- files. (David Norwood, Michael Brown, J.W. Schultz)
