ENHANCEMENTS: - - Rsync now supports popt's option aliases, which means that you can - use /etc/popt and/or ~/.popt to create your own option aliases. - - - Added the --max-size option (promoted from the patches dir). - - - The daemon-mode options were separated from the normal rsync options - so that they can't be mixed together. This makes it impossible for a - user to start a daemon that had improper default option values that - could cause problems (a hang or an exit) when a client connects. - - - The --bwlimit option may now be used in combination with --daemon - to specify a default value for the daemon side and also a value - that cannot be exceeded by a user-specified --bwlimit option. - - - In _exit_cleanup(): when we are exiting with a partially-received - file, we now flush any data in the write-cache before closing the - partial file. + - Made the "max verbosity" setting in the rsyncd.conf file settable on a + per-module basis (which now matches the documentation). BUILD CHANGES: - - Handle an operating system that use mkdev() in place of makedev(). + - 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 a test to the test suite, itemized.test, that tests the output of + -i (log-format w/%i) and some double-verbose messages.
