-rsync 2.5.2 (???)
-
- SECURITY FIXES:
-
- * Signedness security patch from Sebastian Krahmer
- <krahmer@suse.de> -- in some cases we were not sufficiently
- careful about reading integers from the network.
+rsync changes since last release
BUG FIXES:
+
+ * Fix "forward name lookup failed" errors on AIX 4.3.3. (John
+ L. Allen, Martin Pool)
- * Fix possible string mangling in log files.
-
- * Fix for setting local address of outgoing sockets.
+ * Fix compilation on Tru64. (Albert Chin, Zoong Pham)
- * Better handling of hardlinks and devices on platforms with
- 64-bit dev_t or ino_t.
+ * Better handling of some client-server errors. (Martin Pool)
- ENHANCEMENTS:
+ INTERNAL:
- * --statistics now shows memory heap usage on platforms that
- support mallinfo().
+ * Many code cleanups and improved internal documentation. (Martin Pool, Nelson
+ Beebe)
- * "The Ted T'so school of program optimization": make progress
- visible and people will think it's faster. (With --progress,
- rsync will show you how many files it has seen as it builds the
- file_list, giving some indication that it has not hung.)
+ * More test cases. (Martin Pool)
- * Improvements to batch mode support. This is still experimental
- but testing would be welcome. (Jos Backus)
