-rsync 2.5.4 (13 March 2002)

- "Imitation lizard skin"
+NEWS for rsync 2.6.6 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
+Changes since 2.6.5:
BUG FIXES:
- * Additional fix for zlib double-free bug. (Martin Pool, Andrew
- Tridgell) (CVE CAN-2002-0059)
-
+ - 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).
+
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)
+ - Made the "max verbosity" setting in the rsyncd.conf file settable on a
+ per-module basis (which now matches the documentation).
+
+ BUILD CHANGES:
+
+ - 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).
- * Additional test cases for --compress. (Martin Pool)
+ - Added a test to the test suite, itemized.test, that tests the output of
+ -i (log-format w/%i) and some double-verbose messages.
