- - The --append option's restricting of transfers to those that add data no
- longer prevents the updating of non-content changes to otherwise up-to-
- date files (i.e. those with the same content but differing permissions,
- ownership, xattrs, etc.).
-
- - Don't allow --fake-super to be specified with -XX (double --xattrs)
- because they conflict. If a daemon has "fake super" enabled, it
- automatically downgrades a -XX request to -X.
-
- - A daemon doesn't try to auto-refuse the "iconv" option if iconv-support
- wasn't compiled in to the daemon (avoiding a warning in the logs).
-
- - Fixed the support/rrsync script to work with the latest options that
- rsync sends (including its flag-specifying use of -e to the server).
-
- ENHANCEMENTS:
-
- - When getting an error while asking an older rsync daemon for a file
- listing, rsync will try to notice if the error is a rejection of the
- --dirs (-d) option and let the user know how to work around the issue.
-
- - Added a few more --no-OPTION overrides.
-
- - Improved the documentation of the --append option.
-
- - Improved the documentation of the filter/exclude/include daemon
- parameters.
-
- INTERNAL:
-
- - Fixed a couple minor bugs in the included popt library (ones which I
- sent to the official popt project for inclusion in the 1.14 release).
-
- - Fixed a stat() call that should have been do_stat() so that the proper
- normal/64-bit stat() function gets called. (Was in an area that should
- not have caused problems, though.)
-
- - Changed the file-glob code to do a directory scan without using the
- "glob" and "glob.h". This lets us do the globbing with less memory
- churn, and also avoid adding daemon-excluded items to the returned
- args.
-
- DEVELOPER RELATED:
-
- - The configure script tries to get the user's compiler to not warn about
- unused function parameters if the build is not including one or more of
- the ACL/xattrs/iconv features.
-
- - The configure script now has better checks for figuring out if the
- included popt should be used or not.
-
- - The RPM spec file was updated to have (1) comments for how to use the
- rsync-patch tar file, and (2) an /etc/xinetd.d/rsync file.
-
- - Updated the build scripts to work with a revised FTP directory
- structure.
