Prior versions used to output too many creation events for - matching items. + - Fixed a crash bug in the hard-link code. - - A negated filter rule now sends the negation option when sending the - filter rules. + - Fixed the sending of xattr directory information when the code finds a + --link-dest or --copy-dest directory with unchanged xattrs -- the + destination directory now gets these unchanged xattrs properly applied. - ENHANCEMENTS: + - Fixed an xattr-sending glitch that could cause an "Internal abbrev" + error. + + - Fixed the combination of --xattrs and --backup. + + - The generator no longer allows a '.' dir to be excluded by a daemon- + exclude rule. + + - Fixed deletion handling when copying a single, empty directory (with no + files) to a differently named, non-existent directory. + + - Fixed the conversion of spaces into dashes in the %M log escape. + + - Fixed several places in the code that were not returning the right + errno when a function failed. + + - Fixed the backing up of a device or special file into a backup dir. + + - Moved the setting of the socket options prior to the connect(). - - 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 careful to never specify - a 0 value to older rsync client, or it will be silently ignored.* + - If rsync exits in the middle of a --progress output, it now outputs a + newline to help prevent the progress line from being overwritten. - INTERNAL: + - Fixed a problem with how a destination path with a trailing slash or + a trailing dot-dir was compared against the daemon excludes. - - Added some isType() functions that make dealing with signed characters - easier without forcing variables via casts. + - Fixed the sending of large (size > 16GB) files when talking to an older + rsync (protocols < 30): we now use a compatible block size limit. - - Upgraded the included popt version to 1.10.2 and improved its use of - string-handling functions. + - If a file's length is so huge that we overflow a checksum buffer count + (i.e. several hundred TB), warn the user and avoid sending an invalid + checksum struct over the wire. - - Added missing prototypes for compatibility functions from the lib dir. + - If a source arg is excluded, --relative no longer adds the excluded + arg's implied dirs to the transfer. This fix also made the exclude + check happen in the better place in the sending code. - - Figure out if the iconv() function has a const arg to avoid a compiler - warning. + - Use the overflow_exit() function for overflows, not out_of_memory(). - - Improved the use of "const" on pointers. + - Improved the code to better handle a system that has only 32-bit file + offsets. + + ENHANCEMENTS: + + - The rsyncd.conf manpage now consistently refers to the parameters in + the daemon config file as "parameters". + + - The description of the --inplace option was improved. DEVELOPER RELATED: - - ... + - Fixed a testcase failure if the tests are run as root and made some + compatibility improvements. + + - Improved the daemon tests, including checking module comments, the + listing of files, and the ensuring that daemon excludes can't affect + a dot-dir arg. + + - Improved some build rules for those that build in a separate directory + from the source, including better install rules for the man pages, and + the fixing of a proto.h-tstamp rule that could make the binaries get + rebuild without cause. + + - Improved the testsuite to work around a problem with some utilities + (e.g. cp -p & touch -r) rounding sub-second timestamps. + + - Ensure that the early patches don't cause any generated-file hunks to + bleed-over into patches that follow.
