BUG FIXES:
- - Changed the hard-link code to never try to allocate 0 bytes of memory.
- This fixes a failure on some Operating Systems, such as AIX.
+ - Fixed a bug in the hard-linking code where it would sometimes try to
+ allocate 0 bytes of memory (which fails on some OSes, such as AIX).
- - Fixed a potential alignment issue in the IRIX ACL code when allocating
- the initial "struct acl" object. Also, cast mallocs to avoid warnings.
+ - Fixed the hard-linking of files from a device that has a device number
+ of 0 (which seems to be a common device number on NetBSD).
+
+ - Fixed the handling of a --partial-dir that cannot be created. This
+ particularly impacts the --delay-updates option (since the files cannot
+ be delayed without a partial-dir), and was potentially destructive if
+ the --remove-source-files was also specified.
+
+ - Fixed a couple issues in the --fake-super handling of xattrs when the
+ destination files have root-level attributes (e.g. selinux values) that
+ a non-root copy can't affect.
+
+ - Improved the keep-alive check in the generator to fire consistently in
+ incremental-recursion mode when --timeout is enabled.
+
+ - The --iconv option now converts the content of a symlink too, instead
+ of leaving it in the wrong character-set (requires 3.0.4 on both sides
+ of the transfer).
+
+ - When using --iconv, if a filename fails to convert on the receiving side,
+ this no longer makes deletions in the root-dir of the transfer fail
+ silently (the user should see the warning about deletions being disabled
+ due to IO error when --ignore-errors was not specified).
+
+ - When using --iconv, if a server-side receiver can't convert a filename,
+ it now outputs the name back to the client without mangling the charset.
+
+ - Fixed a bug where --delete-during could delete in a directory before it
+ noticed that the sending side sent an I/O error for that directory.
+
+ - Fixed a potential alignment issue in the IRIX ACL code when allocating
+ the initial "struct acl" object. Also, cast mallocs to avoid warnings.
+
+ - Changed some errors that were going to stdout to go to stderr.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- Rsync will avoid sending an -e option to the server if an older protocol
- in requested (and thus the option would not be useful). This lets the
+ is requested (and thus the option would not be useful). This lets the
user specify the --protocol=29 option to access an overly-restrictive
- server.
+ server that is rejecting the protocol-30 use of -e to the server.
+
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
+
+ - The Makefile will not halt for just a timestamp change on the Makefile
+ or the configure files, only for actual changes in content.
+
+ - Enhanced the release scripts to be able to handle a branch release.
