- When the remote rsync dies, make a better effort to recover any error

messages it may have sent instead of just dying with a write error

trying to send data over the socket.

|

- When using --delete and a --backup-dir that contains files that are
|

hard-linked to their destination equivalents, rsync now makes sure
|

that removed files really get removed (works around a really weird

rename() behavior).

- Avoid a bogus run-time complaint about a lack of 64-bit integers when

int64 is defined as an off_t and it actually has 64-bits.

ENHANCEMENTS:
|
||||
|
||||
- Added the --partial-dir=DIR option that lets you specify where to
|
||||
(temporarily) put a partially transferred file (instead of over-
|
||||
writing the destination file). E.g. --partial-dir=.rsync-partial
|
||||
|
||||
- Added --keep-dirlinks (-K), which allows you to symlink a directory
|
||||
onto another partition on the receiving side and have rsync treat it
|
||||
as matching a normal directory from the sender.

- Added the --inplace option that tells rsync to write each destination

file without using a temporary file. The matching of existing data

in the destination file can be severely limited by this, but there
|

are cases where this is more efficient, such as appending data.

- Optimized the handling of larger block sizes (rsync used to slow to

a crawl if the block size got too large). Also cap the block size.

- Optimized away a loop in hash_search().

- Make sure that a filename that contains a newline gets mentioned with

each newline transformed into a question mark (which makes parsing

the verbose output via script more dependable).
