Based + on a patch by Rik Faith. + + * --no-detach option, required to run as a W32 service and also + useful when running on Unix under daemontools, AIX's SRC, or a + debugger. Thanks to Max Bowsher and Jos Backus. - NEW FEATURES + BUG FIXES: + + * Correct string<->address parsing for both IPv4 and 6. Thankyou + to YOSHIFUJI Hideaki, SUMIKAWA Munechika and Jun-ichiro "itojun" + Hagino. - * Support for LSB-compliant packaging + * rsync.1 typo fix by Matt Kraai. - * Shell wildcards are allowed in "auth users" lines. + * Fix for segfault in rsyncd.conf parser by Paul Mackerras. - ENHANCEMENTS - - * Include/exclude cluestick: with -vv, print out whether files are - included or excluded and why. - - * Many error messages have more friendly explanations and more - details. - - * Manual page improvements plus scanty protocol documentation. - - * When running as --daemon in the background and using a "log - file" rsyncd.conf directive, close the log file every time it is - open when going to sleep on the socket. This allows the log - file to get cleaned out by another process. - - * Change to using libpopt rather than getopt for processing - options. This makes the code cleaner and the behaviour more - consistent across platforms. popt is included and built if not - installed on the platform. - - * More details in --version, including note about whether 64-bit - files, symlinks and hardlinks are supported. - - * MD4 code may use less CPU cycles. - - * Use mkstemp on systems where it is secure. If we use mktemp, - explain that we do it in a secure way. - - * --whole-file is the default when source and target are on the - local machine. - - BUG FIXES: - - * Attempt to fix Large File Summit support on AIX. - - * Attempt to fix error handling lockup bug. - - * Give a non-0 exit code if *any* of the files we have been asked - to transfer fail to transfer - - * Fix --cvs-exclude sigsegv bug. - - * Applied "simple nohang patch" from Wayne Davison. - - * Update to work with autoconf2.50 and 2.13. + * Test suite typo fixes Tom Schmidt.
