-rsync 2.5.4 (13 March 2002)

- "Imitation lizard skin"
+NEWS for rsync 3.0.0 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 30 (changed)
+Changes since 2.6.9:
BUG FIXES:
- * Additional fix for zlib double-free bug. (Martin Pool, Andrew
- Tridgell) (CVE CAN-2002-0059)
-
+ - Fixed the output of -ii when combined with one of the --*-dest options:
+ it now itemizes all the items, not just the changed ones.
+
+ - Made the output of all file types consistent when using a --*-dest
+ option. Prior versions used to output too many creation events for
+ matching items.
+
ENHANCEMENTS:
- * Merge in changes from zlib 1.1.3 to zlib 1.1.4. (Jos Backus)
- (Note that rsync still uses a custom version of zlib; you can
- not just link against a system library. See zlib/README.rsync)
+ - You may specify --max-delete=0 to a 3.0.0 client as long as the
+ receiving side is at least version 3.0.0. This means that you
+ can pull from an older rsync with this option, but pushing to an
+ older rsync will generate an error. *Be careful to never specify
+ a 0 value to older rsync client, or it will be silently ignored.*
+
+ INTERNAL:
+
+ - Added some isType() functions that make dealing with signed characters
+ easier without forcing variables via casts.
+
+ - Upgraded the included popt version to 1.10.2 and improved its use of
+ string-handling functions.

- * Additional test cases for --compress. (Martin Pool)
