+NEWS for rsync 3.0.2 (8 Apr 2008)
+Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
+Changes since 3.0.1:
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).
-
- - Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I
- or --size-only is specified.
+ - Fixed a potential buffer overflow in the xattr code.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- - ...
+ - None.
DEVELOPER RELATED:
- - 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.
-
- - Updated config.guess and config.sub to their 2006-02-23 version.
+ - The RPM spec file was improved to install more useful files.
- - Updated various files to include the latest FSF address and to have
- consistent opening comments.
+ - A few developer-oriented scripts were moved from the support dir
+ to the packaging dir.
