is creating (e.g. dirs, symlinks) is now integrated into the progress
output without overlapping it. (Requires protocol 29.)
+ - When --timeout is specified, lulls in the transfer while the
+ generator scanning the file system (either looking for files to send
+ or files to delete) now generate a new keep-alive packet that will
+ keep the transfer going (as long as the generator continues to make
+ progress). (Requires protocol 29.)
+
+ - The stat size of a device is not added to the total file size of the
+ items we encounter since it might be undefined on some OSes.
+
ENHANCEMENTS:
- Rsync now supports popt's option aliases, which means that you can
option. Also, the shell script created by --write-batch will use the
--filter option instead of --exclude-from to capture any filter rules.
+ - An index equal to the file-list count is sent as a keep-alive packet
+ from the generator to the sender, who then forwards it on to the
+ receiver. This normally invalid index is only a valid keep-alive
+ packet if the 16-bit flag-word that follows it contains a single bit
+ (ITEM_IS_NEW, which is normally an illegal flag to appear alone).
+
BUILD CHANGES:
- Handle an operating system that use mkdev() in place of makedev().
