- * When -x (--one-file-system) is combined with -L (--copy-links)
- or --copy-unsafe-links, no symlinked files are skipped, even
- if the referant file is on a different filesystem.
-
- * The --link-dest code now works properly for a non-root user
- when the UIDs of the source and destination differ and -o was
- specified, and when the group of the source can't be used on
- the destination and -g was specified. (Wayne Davison)
-
- * Fixed a bug in the handling of -H (hard-links) that might
- cause the expanded PATH/NAME value of the current item to
- get overwritten (due to an expanded-name caching bug).
- (Wayne Davison)
-
- * We now reset the "new data has been sent" flag at the start
- of each file we send. This makes sure that an interrupted
- transfer with the --partial option set doesn't keep a shorter
- temp file than the current basis file when no new data has been
- transfered over the wire for that file. (Wayne Davison)
-
- * Fixed a byte-order problem in --batch-mode on big-endian
- machines. (Jay Fenlason)
-
- * Fixed configure bug when running "./configure --disable-ipv6".
- (Wayne Davison)
-
- * Fixed "make test" bug when build dir is not the source dir.
-
- * When using --cvs-exclude, the exclude items we get from a
- directory's .cvsignore file once again only affect that one
- directory (and not all following directories too).
-
- * When transferring a file that has group 0 with -g specified
- (typically via -a) and not enough privs to retain the group,
- rsync no longer complains about "chown" failing.
-
- * When specifying the USER@HOST: prefix for a file, the USER
- part can now contain an '@', if needed (i.e. the last '@'
- is used to find the HOST, not the first).
-
- * Fixed some bugs in the handling of group IDs for non-root
- users: (1) It properly handles a group that the sender didn't
- have a name for (it would previously skip changing the group
- on any files in that group). (2) If --numeric-ids is used,
- rsync no longer attempts to set groups that the user doesn't
- have the permission to set.
