- Fixed the directory name in the error that is output when pop_dir()
fails.
+ - Really fixed the parsing of a "!" entry in .cvsignore files this time.
+
+ - If the generator gets a stat() error on a file, output it (this used to
+ require at least -vv for the error to be seen).
+
+ - If waitpid() fails or the child rsync didn't exit cleanly, we now handle
+ the exit status properly and generate a better 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 --min-size=SIZE option to exclude small files from the
+ transfer.
+
+ - Added the --compress-level option to allow you to set how aggressive
+ rsync's compression should be (the option implies --compress).
+
+ - Enhanced the parsing of the SIZE value for --min-size and --max-size.
+
- If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
preservation of attributes on symlinks.
"--archive --no-owner") can be used to turn off the preservation of
file ownership that is implied by -a.
+ - Added the --chmod=MODE option that allows the destination permissions
+ to be changed from the source permissions. E.g. --chmod=g+w,o-rwx
+
- Allow the --temp-dir option to be specified when starting a daemon,
which sets the default temporary directory for incoming files.
+ - If --delete is combined with --dirs without --recursive, rsync will
+ now delete in any directory whose content is being synchronized.
+
+ - The file-count stats that are output by --progress were improved to
+ better indicate what the numbers mean. For instance, the output:
+ "(xfer#5, to-check=8383/9999)" indicates that this was transferred
+ file #5, and we still need to check 8383 files out of 9999 total.
+
+ - Some minor documentation improvements.
+
+ - Updated some diffs in the patches dir.
+
INTERNAL:
- Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where
- If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit
with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer.
+
+ - If a va_copy macro is defined, lib/snprintf.c will use it when defining
+ the VA_COPY macro.
+
+ - Reduced the amount of stack memory needed for each level of directory
+ recursion by nearly MAXPATHLEN bytes.
+
+ DEVELOPER RELATED:
+
+ - Several diffs in the patches dir now use the proper --enable-FOO
+ configure option instead of --with-FOO to turn on the inclusion of
+ the newly patched feature.
