ENHANCEMENTS: - - Made the "max verbosity" setting in the rsyncd.conf file settable on a - per-module basis (which now matches the documentation). + - 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. - - The support/rrsync script has been upgraded to verify the args of options - that take them (instead of rejecting any such options). The scrip was - also changed to try to be more secure and to fix a problem in the parsing - of a copy that has multiple sources. + - 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). - BUILD CHANGES: + DEVELOPER RELATED: - - Made configure define NOBODY_USER (currently hard-wired to "nobody") and - NOBODY_GROUP (set to either "nobody" or "nogroup" depending on what we - find in the /etc/group file). + - Added more conditional debug output. - - Added a test to the test suite, itemized.test, that tests the output of - -i (log-format w/%i) and some double-verbose messages. + - 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.
