- - If an rsync daemon is listening on multiple sockets (to handle both
- IPv4 and IPv6 to a single port), we now close all the unneeded file
- handles after we accept a connection (we used to close just one of
- them).
-
- - Optimized the handling of larger block sizes (rsync used to slow to a
- crawl if the block size got too large).
-
- - Optimized away a loop in hash_search().
-
- - Some improvements to the sanitize_path() and clean_fname() functions
- makes them more efficient and produce better results (while still
- being compatible with the file-name cleaning that gets done on both
- sides when sending the file-list).
-
- - Got rid of alloc_sanitize_path() after adding a destination-buffer
- arg to sanitize_path() made it possible to put all the former's
- functionality into the latter.
-
- - The file-list that is output when at least 4 verbose options are
- specified reports the uid value on the sender even when rsync is
- not running as root (since we might be sending to a root receiver).
-
- BUILD CHANGES:
-
- - Added a "gen" target to rebuild most of the generated files,
- including configure, config.h.in, the man pages, and proto.h.
-
- - If "make proto" doesn't find some changes in the prototypes, the
- proto.h file is left untouched (its time-stamp used to always be
- updated).
