This fixes an "unexpected tag 3" fatal error, and should - also fix a potential problem where a deferred info/error message from - the receiver might bypass the log file and get sent only to the client - process. (These problems could only affect an rsync daemon that was - receiving files.) - - - Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I - or --size-only is specified. + - Changed the way --progress overwrites its prior output in order to make + it nearly impossible for the progress to get overwritten by an error. ENHANCEMENTS: - - ... + - Added the --remote-option=OPT (-M OPT) command-line option that is useful + for things like sending a remote --log-file=FILE or --fake-super option. + + - Added the --info=FLAGS and --debug=FLAGS options to allow finer-grained + control over what is output. Added an extra type of --progress output + using --info=progress2. + + - Added the "%C" escape to the log-output handling, which will output the + MD5 checksum of any transferred file, or all files if --checksum was + specified (when protocol 30 or above is in effect). DEVELOPER RELATED: - - The acls.diff and xattrs.diff patches have received a bunch of work to - make them much closer to being acceptable in the main distribution. + - Added more conditional debug output. - - Updated config.guess and config.sub to their 2006-02-23 version. + - Really big numbers are now output using our own big-num routine rather + than casting them to a double and using a %.0f conversion. - - Updated various files to include the latest FSF address and to have - consistent opening comments. + - The pool_alloc library has received some minor improvements in alignment + handling.
