-rsync 2.5.1 (sometime in 2001?)
+NEWS for rsync 3.1.0 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 31 (changed)
+Changes since 3.0.4:
+
+ BUG FIXES:
+
+ - Changed the way --progress overwrites its prior output in order to make
+ it nearly impossible for the progress to get overwritten by an error.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- * --progress and -P now show estimated data transfer rate (in a
- multiple of bytes/s) and estimated time to completion. Based
- on a patch by Rik Faith.
+ - Added the --remote-option=OPT (-M OPT) command-line option that is useful
+ for things like sending a remote --log-file=FILE or --fake-super option.
+
+ - Added the --info=FLAGS and --debug=FLAGS options to allow finer-grained
+ control over what is output. Added an extra type of --progress output
+ using --info=progress2.
+
+ - Added the "%C" escape to the log-output handling, which will output the
+ MD5 checksum of any transferred file, or all files if --checksum was
+ specified (when protocol 30 or above is in effect).
+
+ EXTRAS:
+
+ - Added an "instant-rsyncd" script to the support directory, which makes
+ it easy to configure a simple rsync daemon in the current directory.
- BUG FIXES:
-
- * Correct string<->address parsing for both IPv4 and 6. Thankyou
- to YOSHIFUJI Hideaki, SUMIKAWA Munechika and Jun-ichiro "itojun"
- Hagino.
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
- * rsync.1 typo fix by Matt Kraai.
+ - Added more conditional debug output.
- * Fix for segfault in rsyncd.conf parser by Paul Mackerras.
+ - Really big numbers are now output using our own big-num routine rather
+ than casting them to a double and using a %.0f conversion.
- * Test suite typo fixes Tom Schmidt.
+ - The pool_alloc library has received some minor improvements in alignment
+ handling.
