- - Added the --only-write-batch=FILE option that may be used (instead
- of --write-batch=FILE) to create a batch file without doing any
- actual updating of the destination.
-
- - Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped
- characters rather than '?'s. Any non-printable character is output
- using octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and backslash is output as "\\".
-
- - Improved the auth-errors that are logged by the daemon to include
- some information on why the authorization failed (wrong user,
- password mismatch, etc.). (The client-visible message is unchanged.)
-
- - Improved the client's handling of an "@ERROR" from a daemon so that
- it does not complain about an unexpectedly closed socket (since we
- really did expect the socket to close).
-
- INTERNAL:
-
- - Rsync now calls setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "").
-
- BUILD CHANGES:
-
- - Fixed a bug in the SUPPORT{,_HARD}_LINKS defines which prevented
- rsync from being built without symlink or hard-link support.
+ - The support/rsyncstats script has an improved line-parsing regex that is
+ easier to read and also allows it to parse syslog-generated lines.
