(Wayne Davison) - - - Length of csum2 is now per-file starting with protocol verison - 27. (J.W. Schultz) - - - Per-file dynamic block size is now sqrt(file length). - - The per-file checksum size is determined according - to an algorythm provided by Donovan Baarda which - reduces the probability of rsync algorithm - corrupting data and falling back using the whole md4 - checksums. (J.W. Schultz, Donovan Baarda) +NEWS for rsync 3.0.3 (UNRELEASED) +Protocol: 30 (unchanged) +Changes since 3.0.2: BUG FIXES: - - for protocol version >= 27, mdfour_tail() is called when the - block size (including checksum_seed) is a multiple of 64. - Previously it was not called, giving the wrong MD4 checksum. - (Craig Barratt) - - - for protocol version >= 27, a 64 bit bit counter is used in - mdfour.c as required by the RFC. Previously only a 32 bit bit - counter was used, causing incorrect MD4 file checksums for - file sizes >= 512MB - 4. (Craig Barratt) - - - - Fixed a crash bug when interacting with Craiolder rsync versioss and - multiple files of the same name are destined for the same dir. - (Wayne Davison) - - - Keep tmp names from overflowing MAXPATHLEN. - - INTERNAL: - - - Eliminated vestigial support for old versions that we stopped - supporting. (J.W. Schultz) - - - Simplified some of the option-parsing code. (Wayne Davison) - - -NEWS for rsync version 2.5.6, aka the dwd-between-jobs release -Protocol: 26 (unchanged) -Changes since version 2.5.5: - - ENHANCEMENTS: - - * The --delete-after option now implies --delete. (Wayne Davison) + - Fixed a wildcard matching problem in the daemon when a module has + "use chroot" enabled. - * The --suffix option can now be used with --backup-dir. (Michael - Zimmerman) + - Fixed a crash bug in the hard-link code. - * Combining "::" syntax with the -rsh/-e option now uses the - specified remote-shell as a transport to talk to a (newly-spawned) - server-daemon. This allows someone to use daemon features, such - as modules, over a secure protocol, such as ssh. (JD Paul) + - Fixed the combination of --xattrs and --backup. - * The rsync:// syntax for daemon connections is now accepted in the - destination field. + - The generator no longer allows a '.' dir to be excluded by a daemon- + exclude rule. - * If the file name given to --include-from or --exclude-from is "-", - rsync will read from standard input. (J.W. Schultz) + - Fixed the conversion of spaces into dashes in the %M log escape. - * New option --link-dest which is like --compare-dest except that - unchanged files are hard-linked in to the destination directory. - (J.W. Schultz) + - Fixed several places in the code that were not returning the right + errno when a function failed. - * Don't report an error if an excluded file disappears during an - rsync run. (Eugene Chupriyanov and Bo Kersey) + - Moved the setting of the socket options prior to the connect(). - * Added .svn to --cvs-exclude list to support subversion. (Jon - Middleton) + - If rsync exits in the middle of a --progress output, it now outputs a + newline to prevent the progress line from being overwritten. - * Properly support IPv6 addresses in the rsyncd.conf "hosts allow" - and "hosts deny" fields. (Hideaki Yoshifuji) + - Fixed a problem with how a destination path with a trailing slash was + compared against the daemon excludes. - * Changed exclude file handling to permit DOS or MAC style line - terminations. (J.W. Schultz) + - Use the overflow_exit() function for overflows, not out_of_memory(). - * Ignore errors from chmod when -p/-a/--preserve-perms is not set. - (Dave Dykstra) - - BUG FIXES: - - * Fix "forward name lookup failed" errors on AIX 4.3.3. (John - L. Allen, Martin Pool) - - * Generate each file's rolling-checksum data as we send it, not - in a separate (memory-eating) pass before hand. This prevents - timeout errors on really large files. (Stefan Nehlsen) - - * Fix compilation on Tru64. (Albert Chin, Zoong Pham) - - * Better handling of some client-server errors. (Martin Pool) - - * Fixed a crash that would occur when sending a list of files that - contains a duplicate name (if it sorts to the end of the file - list) and using --delete. (Wayne Davison) - - * Fixed the file-name duplicate-removal code when dealing with multiple - dups in a row. (Wayne Davison) - - * Fixed a bug that caused rsync to lose the exit status of its child - processes and sometimes return an exit code of 0 instead of showing - an error. (David R. Staples, Dave Dykstra) - - * Fixed bug in --copy-unsafe-links that caused it to be completely - broken. (Dave Dykstra) - - * Prevent infinite recursion in cleanup code under certain circumstances. - (Sviatoslav Sviridov and Marc Espie) - - * Fixed a bug that prevented rsync from creating intervening directories - when --relative-paths/-R is set. (Craig Barratt) - - * Prevent "Connection reset by peer" messages from Cygwin. (Randy O'Meara) - - INTERNAL: - - * Many code cleanups and improved internal documentation. (Martin - Pool, Nelson Beebe) + ENHANCEMENTS: - * Portability fixes. (Dave Dykstra and Wayne Davison) + - The rsyncd.conf manpage now consistently refers to the parameters in + the daemon config file as "parameters". - * More test cases. (Martin Pool) + - The description of the --inplace option was improved. - * Some test-case fixes. (Brian Poole, Wayne Davison) + DEVELOPER RELATED: - * Updated included popt to the latest vendor drop, version 1.6.4. - (Jos Backus) + - Fixed a testcase failure if the tests are run as root and made some + compatibility improvements. - * Updated config.guess and config.sub to latest versions; this - means rsync should build on more platforms. (Paul Green) + - Ensure that the early patches don't cause any generated-file hunks to + bleed-over into patches that follow.
