-rsync changes since last release
+NEWS for rsync 2.6.6 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
+Changes since 2.6.5:
BUG FIXES:
-
- * Fix "forward name lookup failed" errors on AIX 4.3.3. (John
- L. Allen, Martin Pool)
- * Fix compilation on Tru64. (Albert Chin, Zoong Pham)
+ - The outputting of hard-linked files when verbosity was > 1 was not right:
+ without -i it would output the name of each hard-linked file as thought
+ it had been changed (it now outputs a "is hard linked" message for the
+ file); with -i it would could output all trailing dots for an unchanged
+ hard-link (it now changes those dots to spaces, as is done for other
+ unchanged files).
- * Better handling of some client-server errors. (Martin Pool)
+ ENHANCEMENTS:
- * When -e is specified along with an rsyncd url, the client should
- get a warning but it should not be treated as an error. (Bill
- Nottingham)
+ - Made the "max verbosity" setting in the rsyncd.conf file settable on a
+ per-module basis (which now matches the documentation).
- http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=62489
+ BUILD CHANGES:
- * The --delete-after option now implies --delete.
-
- INTERNAL:
-
- * Many code cleanups and improved internal documentation. (Martin
- Pool, Nelson Beebe)
-
- * More test cases. (Martin Pool)
+ - Made configure define NOBODY_USER (currently hard-wired to "nobody") and
+ NOBODY_GROUP (set to either "nobody" or "nogroup" depending on what we
+ find in the /etc/group file).
+ - Added a test to the test suite, itemized.test, that tests the output of
+ -i (log-format w/%i) and some double-verbose messages.
