- - Fixed an overzealous sanitizing bug in the handling of the --link-dest,
- --copy-dest, and --compare-dest options to a daemon without chroot: if
- the copy's destination dir is deeper than the top of the module's path,
- these options now accept a safe number of ../ (parent-dir) references
- (since these options are relative to the destination dir). The old code
- incorrectly chopped off all "../" prefixes for these options, no matter
- how deep the destination directory was in the module's hierarchy.
-
- - Fixed a bug where a deferred info/error/log message could get sent
- directly to the sender instead of being handled by rwrite() in the
- generator. This fixes an "unexpected tag 3" fatal error, and should
- also fix a potential problem where a deferred info/error message from
- the receiver might bypass the log file and get sent only to the client
- process. (These problems could only affect an rsync daemon that was
- receiving files.)
-
- - Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I
- is specified.
-
- - If --link-dest is specified with --checksum but without --times, rsync
- will now allow a hard-link to be created to a matching link-dest file
- regardless of the file's modify-time.
-
- - The daemon now calls more timezone-using functions prior to doing a
- chroot. This should help some C libraries to generate proper timestamps
- from inside a chrooted daemon (and to not try to access /etc/timezone
- over and over again).
