-NEWS for rsync version 2.5.7
-Protocol: 27 (changed)
-Changes since version 2.5.6:
-
- ENHANCEMENTS:
-
- * Added --files-from, --no-relative, --no-implied-dirs, and --from0.
- Note that --from0 affects the line-ending character for all the
- --*-from options. (Wayne Davison)
-
- * Length of csum2 is now per-file starting with protocol verison
- 27. (J.W. Schultz)
-
- * Per-file dynamic block size is now sqrt(file length).
- The per-file checksum size is determined according
- to an algorythm provided by Donovan Baarda which
- reduces the probability of rsync algorithm
- corrupting data and falling back using the whole md4
- checksums. (J.W. Schultz, Donovan Baarda)
