-rsync 2.5.3 (not released yet)
+NEWS for rsync 2.6.6 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
+Changes since 2.6.5:
+
+ 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).
ENHANCEMENTS:
- * Command to initiate connections is only shown with -vv, rather
- than -v as in 2.5.2. Output from plain -v is more similar to
- what was historically used so as not to break scripts that try
- to parse the output.
+ - Made the "max verbosity" setting in the rsyncd.conf file settable on a
+ per-module basis (which now matches the documentation).
+
+ BUILD CHANGES:
- * Added --no-whole-file and --no-blocking-io options
+ - 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).
+ - Added a test to the test suite, itemized.test, that tests the output of
+ -i (log-format w/%i) and some double-verbose messages.
