-Changes since 2.6.8:
+NEWS for rsync 3.1.0 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
+Changes since 3.0.3:
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).
+ - Changed the way --progress overwrites its prior output in order to make
+ it nearly impossible for the progress to get overwritten by an error.
- - Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I
- or --size-only is specified.
+ - Improved the keep-alive in-loop check in the generator to work properly
+ in incremental recursion mode.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- - ...
+ - Added the --remote-option=OPT (-M OPT) command-line option that is useful
+ for things like sending a remote --log-file=FILE or --fake-super option.
- DEVELOPER RELATED:
+ - Added the --info=FLAGS and --debug=FLAGS options to allow finer-grained
+ control over what is output. Added an extra type of --progress output
+ using --info=progress2.
- - 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.
+ - Rsync will not send an -e option to the server if the user specifies the
+ --protocol=29 option. This lets rsync3 use an overly-restrictive server.
- - Updated config.guess and config.sub to their 2006-02-23 version.
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
- - Updated various files to include the latest FSF address and to have
- consistent opening comments.
