ENHANCEMENTS: - - None. + - 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. + + - 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. + + - Output numbers in 3-digit groups by default (e.g. 1,234,567). (See the + --human-readable option for a way to turn it off.) + + - Added a "T" (terabyte) category to the --human-readable size suffixes. + + - Enhanced the --stats output: 1) to mention how many files were created + (protocol >= 28), 2) to mention how many files were deleted (new for + protocol 31), and 3) to follow the file-count, created-count, and + deleted-count with a break-out list of each count by type. + + - Added the --usermap/--groupmap/--chown options for manipulating file + ownership during the copy. + + - 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). + + EXTRAS: + + - Added an "instant-rsyncd" script to the support directory, which makes + it easy to configure a simple rsync daemon in the current directory. + + - Added the "mapfrom" and "mapto" scripts to the support directory, which + makes it easier to do user/group mapping in a local transfer based on + passwd/group files from another machine. DEVELOPER RELATED: - - The RPM spec file was improved to install more useful files. + - 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. - - A few developer-oriented scripts were moved from the support dir - to the packaging dir. + - Added init_stat_x() function to avoid duplication of acl/xattr init code.
