(Wayne Davison) - - * The --suffix option can now be used with --backup-dir. (Michael - Zimmerman) - - * Combining "::" syntax with the -rsh/-e option now uses the - specified remote-shell as a transport to talk to a (newly-spawned) - server-daemon. This allows someone to use daemon features, such - as modules, over a secure protocol, such as ssh. (JD Paul) - - * The rsync:// syntax for daemon connections is now accepted in the - destination field. - - * If the file name given to --include-from or --exclude-from is "-", - rsync will read from standard input. (J.W. Schultz) - - * New option --link-dest which is like --compare-dest except that - unchanged files are hard-linked in to the destination directory. - (J.W. Schultz) - - * Don't report an error if an excluded file disappears during an - rsync run. (Eugene Chupriyanov and Bo Kersey) - - * Added .svn to --cvs-exclude list to support subversion. (Jon - Middleton) - - * Properly support IPv6 addresses in the rsyncd.conf "hosts allow" - and "hosts deny" fields. (Hideaki Yoshifuji) - - * Changed exclude file handling to permit DOS or MAC style line - terminations. (J.W.

Allen, Martin Pool) - - * Generate each file's rolling-checksum data as we send it, not - in a separate (memory-eating) pass before hand. This prevents - timeout errors on really large files. (Stefan Nehlsen) - - * Fix compilation on Tru64. (Albert Chin, Zoong Pham) - - * Better handling of some client-server errors. (Martin Pool) - - * Fixed a crash that would occur when sending a list of files that - contains a duplicate name (if it sorts to the end of the file - list) and using --delete. (Wayne Davison) - - * Fixed the file-name duplicate-removal code when dealing with multiple - dups in a row. (Wayne Davison) - - * Fixed a bug that caused rsync to lose the exit status of its child - processes and sometimes return an exit code of 0 instead of showing - an error. (David R. Staples, Dave Dykstra) - - * Fixed bug in --copy-unsafe-links that caused it to be completely - broken. (Dave Dykstra) - - * Prevent infinite recursion in cleanup code under certain circumstances. - (Sviatoslav Sviridov and Marc Espie) - - * Fixed a bug that prevented rsync from creating intervening directories - when --relative-paths/-R is set.
