+NEWS for rsync 3.0.0 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 30 (changed)
+Changes since 2.6.9:
BUG FIXES:
- - The outputting of hard-linked files when verbosity was > 1 was not right:
- without -i it would output the name of each hard-linked file as thought
- it had been changed (it now outputs a "is hard linked" message for the
- file); with -i it would could output all trailing dots for an unchanged
- hard-link (it now changes those dots to spaces, as is done for other
- unchanged files).
+ - Fixed the output of -ii when combined with one of the --*-dest options:
+ it now itemizes all the items, not just the changed ones.
+
+ - Made the output of all file types consistent when using a --*-dest
+ option. Prior versions used to output too many creation events for
+ matching items.
+
+ - A negated filter rule now sends the negation option when sending the
+ filter rules.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- - Made the "max verbosity" setting in the rsyncd.conf file settable on a
- per-module basis (which now matches the documentation).
+ - Added the --delete-delay option, which is a more efficient way to
+ delete files at the end of the transfer without needing a separate
+ delete pass.
+
+ - You may specify --max-delete=0 to a 3.0.0 client as long as the
+ receiving side is at least version 3.0.0. This means that you
+ can pull from an older rsync with this option, but pushing to an
+ older rsync will generate an error. *Be sure to never specify a 0
+ value to an older rsync client, or it will be silently ignored.*
+
+ INTERNAL:
+
+ - Added some isType() functions that make dealing with signed characters
+ easier without forcing variables via casts.
+
+ - Upgraded the included popt version to 1.10.2 and improved its use of
+ string-handling functions.
+
+ - Added missing prototypes for compatibility functions from the lib dir.
+
+ - Configure determines if iconv() has a const arg, allowing us to avoid a
+ compiler warning.
+
+ - Made the sending of some numbers more efficient for protocol 30.
- BUILD CHANGES:
+ - Improved the use of "const" on pointers.
- - Made configure define NOBODY_USER (currently hard-wired to "nobody") and
- NOBODY_GROUP (set to either "nobody" or "nogroup" depending on what we
- find in the /etc/group file).
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
- - Added a test to the test suite, itemized.test, that tests the output of
- -i (log-format w/%i) and some double-verbose messages.
