From 0e5dd898669f2b2f272079320fdc71155008155a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wayne Davison Date: Thu, 24 May 2007 23:11:33 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Mention latest improvements. --- NEWS | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index 48484fbf..23d5fd63 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -87,8 +87,16 @@ Changes since 2.6.9: side when speaking an older protocol (note that older rsync versions kept the device+inode information on both sides). + - A lot more --no-OPTION override options are now supported. + INTERNAL: + - The file-list sorting algorithm now uses a sort that keeps any same- + named items in the same order as they were specified. This allows + rsync to always ensure that the first of the duplicates is the one + that will be included in the copy. The new sort was also faster than + the GNU C version of qsort() (and mergesort() too) in my testing. + - Rsync now supports the transfer of 64-bit timestamps (time_t values). - Fixed a build problem with older (2.x) versions of gcc. -- 2.34.1
