ENHANCEMENTS: - - Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped - characters rather than '?'s. Any non-printable character is output - using octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and backslash is output as "\\". + - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files + that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new + files). - INTERNAL: + - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the + preservation of attributes on symlinks. - - Rsync now calls setlocale(LC_CTYPE, ""). + - Added two config items to the rsyncd.conf parsing: "pre-xfer exec" + and "post-xfer exec". These allow a command to be specified on a + per-module basis that will be run before and/or after a daemon-mode + transfer. + + INTERNAL: - BUILD CHANGES: + - Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where + MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin). - - You can use --disable-locale to turn off any use of setlocale(). + - If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit + with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer.
