Prior versions used to output too many creation events for - matching items. + - 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: - - You may specify --max-delete=0 to a 3.0.0 client as long as the - receiving side is at least version 3.0.0. This means that you - can pull from an older rsync with this option, but pushing to an - older rsync will generate an error. *Be careful to never specify - a 0 value to older rsync client, or it will be silently ignored.* + - 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. - INTERNAL: + - Added the --usermap/--groupmap/--chown options for manipulating file + ownership during the copy. - - Added some isType() functions that make dealing with signed characters - easier without forcing variables via casts. + - 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). - - Upgraded the included popt version to 1.10.2 and improved its use of - string-handling functions. + 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: - - ... + - 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. + + - Added init_stat_x() function to avoid duplication of acl/xattr init code.
