ENHANCEMENTS: - - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files - that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new - files). - - - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the - preservation of attributes on symlinks. - - - 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. - - - When using the --relative option, you can now insert a dot dir in - the source path to indicate where the replication of the source dirs - should start. For example, if you specify a source path of - rsync://host/module/foo/bar/./baz/dir with -R, rsync would only - replicate the "baz/dir" part of the source path (note: a trailing - dot dir is unaffected unless it also has a trailing slash). - - INTERNAL: + - ... - - Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where - MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin). + DEVELOPER RELATED: - - If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit - with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer. + - Updated config.guess and config.sub to their 2006-02-23 version.
