+Changes since 3.0.5:
BUG FIXES:
- - Fixed the sanitizing of acceptable ../ dirs in 2 cases where an rsync
- daemon is receiving files when "use chroot" is not enabled and the
- destination dir is not at the top of the module's path: both the value
- of a symlink and the arg of the --FOO-dest options (i.e. --link-dest,
- --copy-dest, and --compare-dest) now know how deep the destination dir
- is in the module, and allow a safe number of ../ references instead of
- preventing the references from leaving the destination hierarchy (use
- the age-old --safe-links for that behavior).
+ - Fixed a hang in the batch-reading code with incremental recursion.
- - 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.)
+ - Fixed the daemon's socket code to handle the simultaneous arrival of
+ multiple connections.
- - Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I
- or --size-only is specified.
+ - Fix --safe-links/--copy-unsafe-links to properly handle symlinks that
+ have consecutive slashes in the value.
- ENHANCEMENTS:
+ - Fixed the parsing of an [IPv6_LITERAL_ADDR] when a USER@ is prefixed.
- - ...
+ - The sender now skips a (bogus) symlink that has a 0-length value, which
+ avoids a transfer error in the receiver.
- DEVELOPER RELATED:
+ - Fixed a case where the sender could die with a tag-0 error if there was
+ an I/O during the sending of the file list.
- - The acls.diff and xattrs.diff patches have received a bunch of work to
- make them much closer to being acceptable in the main distribution.
+ - Fixed the rrsync script to avoid a server-side problem when -e is at the
+ start of the short options.
- - Updated config.guess and config.sub to their 2006-02-23 version.
+ - Fixed a problem where a vanished directory could turn into an exit code
+ 23 instead of the proper exit code 24.
- - Updated various files to include the latest FSF address and to have
- consistent opening comments.
+ - Fixed the --iconv conversion of symlinks when doing a local copy.
+
+ - Fixed a problem where --one-file-system was not stopping deletions on the
+ receiving side when a mount-point directory did not match a directory in
+ the transfer.
+
+ - Fixed the dropping of an ACL mask when no named ACL values were present.
+
+ - Fixed an ACL/xattr corruption issue where the --backup option could cause
+ rsync to associate the wrong ACL/xattr information with received files.
+
+ - Fixed the use of --xattrs with --only-write-batch.
+
+ - Fixed the use of --dry-run with --read-batch.
+
+ - Fixed configure's erroneous use of target.
+
+ - Fixed configure's --disable-debug option.
+
+ - Fixed a run-time issue for systems that can't find iconv_open() by adding
+ the --disable-iconv-open configure option.
