These allow a command to be specified on a - per-module basis that will be run before and/or after a daemon-mode - transfer. + - The description of the --inplace option was improved. - INTERNAL: + DEVELOPER RELATED: - - Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where - MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin). + - Fixed a testcase failure if the tests are run as root and made some + compatibility improvements. - - If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit - with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer. + - Ensure that the early patches don't cause any generated-file hunks to + bleed-over into patches that follow.
