This fix also made the exclude + check happen in the better place in the sending code. + + - Use the overflow_exit() function for overflows, not out_of_memory(). + + - 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. + + EXTRAS: + + - Added a new script in the support directory, deny-rsync, which allows + an admin to (temporarily) replace the rsync command with a script that + sends an error message to the remote client via the rsync protocol. + + 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. + + NEWS for rsync 3.0.2 (8 Apr 2008) Protocol: 30 (unchanged) Changes since 3.0.1: @@ -2745,6 +2836,7 @@ Changes since 2.4.6: Partial Protocol History RELEASE DATE VER.
