- - If a file has a read error on the sending side, the receiver will
- no longer keep the resulting file unless the --partial option was
- specified. (Note: both sides must be running 2.6.3 for this to
- work -- older receivers always keep the file, and older senders
- don't tell the receiver that the file was not read correctly.)
-
- - Fixed an age-old crash problem with --read-batch on a local copy
- (rsync was improperly assuming --whole-file for the local copy).
-
- - Files specified in the daemon's "exclude" or "exclude from" config
- items are now excluded from being uploaded (assuming that the module
- allows uploading at all) in addition to the old download exclusion.
-
- - Got rid of a potential hang in the receiver when near the end of a
- phase.
-
- - When using --backup without a --backup-dir, rsync no longer preserves
- the modify time on directories. This avoids confusing NFS.
-
- - When --copy-links (-L) is specified, we now output a separate error
- for a symlink that has no referent instead of claiming that a file
- "vanished".
-
- - Fixed a bug in the daemon authentication code when using one of the
- batch-processing options.
+ - When --inplace creates a new destination file, rsync now creates it with
+ permissions 0600 instead of 0000 -- this makes restarting possible when
+ the transfer gets interrupted in the middle of sending a new file.
