+NEWS for rsync 3.0.3 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
+Changes since 3.0.2:
BUG FIXES:
- - Restore the list-clearing behavior of "!" in a .cvsignore file (2.6.3
- was only treating it as a special token in an rsync include/exclude
- file).
+ - Fixed a wildcard matching problem in the daemon when a module has
+ "use chroot" enabled.
- - Avoid a mkdir warning when removing a directory in the destination
- that already exists in the --backup-dir.
+ - Fixed a crash bug in the hard-link code.
- - An OS that has a binary mode for its files (such as cygwin0 needed
- setmode(fd, O_BINARY) called on the temp-file we opened with
- mkstemp().
+ - Fixed the combination of --xattrs and --backup.
- - We now check if the OS doesn't support using mknod() for creating
- FIFOs and sockets, and compile-in using mkfifo() and socket() when
- necessary.
+ - The generator no longer allows a '.' dir to be excluded by a daemon-
+ exclude rule.
- - Fixed an off-by-one error in the handling of --max-delete=N.
+ - Fixed the conversion of spaces into dashes in the %M log escape.
- - One fork() call needed to check for and handle a failure.
+ - Fixed several places in the code that were not returning the right
+ errno when a function failed.
- ENHANCEMENTS:
+ - Moved the setting of the socket options prior to the connect().
+
+ - If rsync exits in the middle of a --progress output, it now outputs a
+ newline to prevent the progress line from being overwritten.
- - Rsync now supports popt's option aliases, which means that you can
- use /etc/popt and/or ~/.popt to create your own option aliases.
+ - Fixed a problem with how a destination path with a trailing slash was
+ compared against the daemon excludes.
- - Added the --max-size option (promoted from the patches dir).
+ - Use the overflow_exit() function for overflows, not out_of_memory().
+
+ ENHANCEMENTS:
- - The daemon-mode options were separated from the normal rsync options
- so that they can't be mixed together. This makes it impossible for a
- user to start a daemon that had improper default option values that
- could cause problems (a hang or an exit) when a client connects.
+ - The rsyncd.conf manpage now consistently refers to the parameters in
+ the daemon config file as "parameters".
- - The --bwlimit option may now be used in combination with --daemon
- to specify a default value for the daemon side and also a value
- that cannot be exceeded by a user-specified --bwlimit option.
+ - The description of the --inplace option was improved.
- - In _exit_cleanup(): when we are exiting with a partially-received
- file, we now flush any data in the write-cache before closing the
- partial file.
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
- BUILD CHANGES:
+ - Fixed a testcase failure if the tests are run as root and made some
+ compatibility improvements.
- - Handle an operating system that use mkdev() in place of makedev().
+ - Ensure that the early patches don't cause any generated-file hunks to
+ bleed-over into patches that follow.
