Rsync was showing the full destination path, which was confusing because
nothing is created at that path and was especially bogus in combination
with the source name of a solo file.

This will give 3.0.7 the standard timeout handling with just a few
improvements: a fix for the detection of recent sender I/O, the use
of MSG_DATA for really old rsync versions, and better setting of
select_timeout for shorter timeout settings.
going on. The receiving side also switches timeout handling from the
receiver to the generator. Given this setup, all keep-alive messages
are now sent as empty MSG_DATA messages, with MSG_NOOP messages only
being understood and (when necessary) acted upon to forward a keep-alive
event to an older receiver. This is both safer and more compatible with
older versions.
Since the value is not needed, the (superfluous) sending of the value
is optimized so that a valid rdev value is sent as efficiently as
possible. The receiver no longer caches an rdev value for special
files, and the generator will always pass a 0 rdev value to do_mknod()
for special files. Fixes bug #6280.
This fixes an issue with -K noticed by eric casteleijn, avoids some
inconsistent itemizing when a file/dir is replaced by a dir/file,
and removes a now-obsolete chunk of code from make_file().
The generator can skip a directory's contents altogether due to
--ignore-non-existing, a daemon exclude, or a mkdir failure. On a
--dry-run, the generator can also note the missingness of a directory
while still scanning its contents. These two scenarios were conflated
using a single set of missing_below/missing_dir variables in combination
with transient increments in dry_run; this caused at least three bugs.
Now recv_generator has separate variables for the two scenarios, called
skip_dir and dry_missing_dir, respectively. For simplicity, we take the
F_DEPTH instead of having separate *_below variables. We mark both
kinds of missing dirs with FLAG_MISSING_DIR. (dry_run > 1) iff the
*root* of the destination does not exist; it is no longer incremented
for missing subdirs. I added tests for the three fixed bugs in
missing.test.
the FLAG_SKIP_HLINK flag, which gets set on any hard-linked file that
the user wants to skip (e.g. via --ignore-existing, --append, etc.).
The code in hlink.c now deals with the skipped files instead of
triggering an assert() error.
- If a symlink/device/special-file changes its value without any
attribute changes, the itemized event no longer gets dropped.
- We put a 'c' into the checksum/change field now to indicate when
a symlink/device/special-file changes its value without changing
its type. This lets us properly interpret the --copy-links output
to know which items are getting copied without changes and which
are getting created with new content.
- Fixed the 'T' itemized output for a symlink when rsync tries to
set the right time but fails due to lack of OS/disk support.
