- Fixed a really old bug that caused --checksum (-c) to checksum all the
files encountered during the delete scan (ouch).
+ - Fixed a potential hang in a remote generator: when the receiver gets a
+ read-error on the socket, it now signals the generator about this so that
+ the generator does not try to send any of the terminating error messages
+ to the client (avoiding a potential hang in some setups).
+
- Made hard-links work with symlinks and devices again.
- If the sender gets an early EOF reading a source file, we propagate this
execute bit on files, for those times when using the --perms option is
not desired.
+ - The daemon now logs each module-list request it receives.
+
+ - New log-format options: %M (modtime), %U (uid), %G (gid), and %B
+ (permission bits, e.g. "rwxr-xrwt").
+
- Some minor documentation improvements.
- Updated some diffs in the patches dir.
INTERNAL:
+ - We now use sigaction() and sigprocmask() if possible, and fall back on
+ signal() if not. Using sigprocmask() ensures that rsync enables all the
+ signals that it needs, just in case it was started in a masked state.
+
- Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where
MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin).
DEVELOPER RELATED:
+ - The diffs in the patches dir now require "patch -p1 <DIFF" instead of
+ the previous -p0. Also, the version included in the release tar now
+ affect generated files (e.g. configure, rsync.1, proto.h, etc.), so
+ it is no longer necessary to run autoconf and/or yodl unless you're
+ applying a patch that was checked out from CVS.
+
- Several diffs in the patches dir now use the proper --enable-FOO
configure option instead of --with-FOO to turn on the inclusion of
the newly patched feature.
- - The testsuite now sets HOME so that it won't be affecting by a file
- such as ~/.popt.
+ - There is a new script, "prepare-source" than can be used to update the
+ various generated files (proto.h, configure, etc.) even before configure
+ has created the Makefile (this is mainly useful when patching the source
+ with a patch that doesn't affect generated files).
+
+ - The testsuite now sets HOME so that it won't be affected by a file such
+ as ~/.popt.
