-rsync 2.5.3 (not released yet)
+NEWS for rsync 3.0.3 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
+Changes since 3.0.2:
+
+ BUG FIXES:
+
+ - Fixed a wildcard matching problem in the daemon when a module has
+ "use chroot" enabled.
+
+ - Fixed a crash bug in the hard-link code.
+
+ - Fixed the combination of --xattrs and --backup.
+
+ - The generator no longer allows a '.' dir to be excluded by a daemon-
+ exclude rule.
+
+ - Fixed the conversion of spaces into dashes in the %M log escape.
+
+ - Fixed several places in the code that were not returning the right
+ errno when a function failed.
+
+ - 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.
+
+ - Fixed a problem with how a destination path with a trailing slash was
+ compared against the daemon excludes.
+
+ - Use the overflow_exit() function for overflows, not out_of_memory().
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.
+ - The rsyncd.conf manpage now consistently refers to the parameters in
+ the daemon config file as "parameters".
+
+ - The description of the --inplace option was improved.
+
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
- * Added --no-whole-file and --no-blocking-io options
+ - Fixed a testcase failure if the tests are run as root and made some
+ compatibility improvements.
+ - Ensure that the early patches don't cause any generated-file hunks to
+ bleed-over into patches that follow.
