BUG FIXES:
- Fixed a bug in the exclude code where an anchored exclude without any
- wildcards failed to match an absolute source arg, but only when
- --relative is in effect.
+ wildcards fails to match an absolute source arg, but only when --relative
+ is in effect.
+
+ - Improved the I/O code for the generator to fix a potential hang when the
+ receiver gets an EOF on the socket but the generator's select() call
+ never indicates that the socket is writable for it to be notified about
+ the EOF. (This can happen when using stunnel).
+
+ - Fixed a logging bug where the "log file" directive was not being honored
+ in a single-use daemon (one spawned by a remote-shell connection).
+
+ - If rsync cannot honor the --delete option, we output an error and exit
+ instead of silently ignoring the option.
ENHANCEMENTS:
+ - In daemon mode, if rsync fails to bind to the requested port, the
+ error(s) returned by socket() and/or bind() are now logged.
+
+ - When we output a fatal error, we now output the version of rsync in the
+ message.
+
- The support/rsyncstats script has an improved line-parsing regex that is
easier to read and also allows it to parse syslog-generated lines.
+
+ - A new script, support/file-attr-restore, can be used to restore the
+ attributes of a fileset (the permissions, ownership, and group info)
+ taken from the cached output of a "find ARG... -ls" command.
+
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
+
+ - The acls.diff patch has been improved quite a bit, with more to come.
+
+ - A new patch was added: log-file.diff. This contains an early version of
+ a future option, --log-file=FILE, that will allow any rsync to log its
+ actions to a file (something that only a daemon supports at present).
