+NEWS for rsync 3.1.0 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
+Changes since 3.0.4:
BUG FIXES:
- - If the user specifies a remote-host for both the source and destination,
- we now output a syntax error rather than trying to open the destination
- hostspec as a filename.
+ - Changed the way --progress overwrites its prior output in order to make
+ it nearly impossible for the progress to get overwritten by an error.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files
- that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new
- files).
+ - 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.
- - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
- preservation of attributes on symlinks.
+ - 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.
- - Added two config items to the rsyncd.conf parsing: "pre-xfer exec"
- and "post-xfer exec". These allow a command to be specified on a
- per-module basis that will be run before and/or after a daemon-mode
- transfer.
+ - Added the "%C" escape to the log-output handling, which will output the
+ MD5 checksum of any transferred file, or all files if --checksum was
+ specified (when protocol 30 or above is in effect).
+
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
+
+ - Added more conditional debug output.
+
+ - Really big numbers are now output using our own big-num routine rather
+ than casting them to a double and using a %.0f conversion.
+
+ - The pool_alloc library has received some minor improvements in alignment
+ handling.
