NEWS for rsync 3.1.0 (UNRELEASED)
-Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
-Changes since 3.0.3:
+Protocol: 31 (changed)
+Changes since 3.0.4:
BUG FIXES:
- - ...
+ - Changed the way --progress overwrites its prior output in order to make
+ it nearly impossible for the progress to get overwritten by an error.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- - ...
+ - Added the --remote-option=OPT (-M OPT) command-line option that is useful
+ for things like sending a remote --log-file=FILE or --fake-super option.
+
+ - Added the --info=FLAGS and --debug=FLAGS options to allow finer-grained
+ control over what is output. Added an extra type of --progress output
+ using --info=progress2.
+
+ - Output numbers in 3-digit groups by default (e.g. 1,234,567). (See the
+ --human-readable option for a way to turn it off.)
+
+ - Added a "T" (terabyte) category to the --human-readable size suffixes.
+
+ - Enhanced the --stats output: 1) to mention how many files were created
+ (protocol >= 28), 2) to mention how many files were deleted (new for
+ protocol 31), and 3) to follow the file-count, created-count, and
+ deleted-count with a break-out list of each count by type.
+
+ - Added the "%C" escape to the log-output handling, which will output the
+ MD5 checksum of any transferred file, or all files if --checksum was
+ specified (when protocol 30 or above is in effect).
+
+ EXTRAS:
+
+ - Added an "instant-rsyncd" script to the support directory, which makes
+ it easy to configure a simple rsync daemon in the current directory.
DEVELOPER RELATED:
- - ...
+ - Added more conditional debug output.
+
+ - Really big numbers are now output using our own big-num routine rather
+ than casting them to a double and using a %.0f conversion.
+
+ - The pool_alloc library has received some minor improvements in alignment
+ handling.
