Prior versions used to output too many creation events for - matching items. - - - The code that waits for a child pid now handles being interrupted by - a signal. This fixes a problem with the pre-xfer exec function not - being able to get the exit status from the script. - - - A negated filter rule now sends the negation option when sending the - filter rules. - - - Fixed a problem with the --out-format (aka --log-format) option: it - would output superfluous directory information for a non-daemon rsync. - - - Fixed a problem with -vv (double --verbose) and --stats when "pushing" - files (which includes local copies). Version 2.6.9 would complete the - copy, but exit with an error when the receiver output its memory stats. - - - If --password-file is used on a non-daemon transfer, rsync now complains - and exits. This should help users figure out that they can't use this - option to control a remote shell's password prompt. + - ... ENHANCEMENTS: - - Added the --delete-delay option, which is a more efficient way to - delete files at the end of the transfer without needing a separate - delete pass. - - - You may specify --max-delete=0 to a 3.0.0 client as long as the - receiving side is at least version 3.0.0. This means that you - can pull from an older rsync with this option, but pushing to an - older rsync will generate an error. *Be sure to never specify a 0 - value to an older rsync client, or it will be silently ignored.* - - - The --hard-link option now uses less memory on both the sending and - receiving side for all protocol versions. For protocol 30, the use - of a hashtable on the sending side allows us to more efficiently - convey to the receiver what files are linked together. This reduces - the amount of data sent over the socket by a considerable margin, and - moves the in-memory storage of the device+inode information from the - receiving side (for protocols < 30) to the sending side (note that - older rsync versions kept the device+inode information on both - sides). - - INTERNAL: - - - Added some isType() functions that make dealing with signed characters - easier without forcing variables via casts. - - - Upgraded the included popt version to 1.10.2 and improved its use of - string-handling functions. - - - Added missing prototypes for compatibility functions from the lib dir. - - - Configure determines if iconv() has a const arg, allowing us to avoid a - compiler warning. - - - Made the sending of some numbers more efficient for protocol 30. - - - Improved the use of "const" on pointers. + - ... DEVELOPER RELATED: - - ... + - Fixed a testcase failure if the tests are run as root.
