- use `grep -E` and `grep -F` (`egrep` and `fgrep` are non-standard)
- use same hashbang style for all test scripts
- use explicit comparisons in test scripts
- remove redundant ; from test scripts
- make test script not executable, just like all the other scripts
- unify codestyle across all test scripts
- make openssl license exception clearer by having it at the top
- use modern links in COPYING. The text now matches:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt
- fix typo
We now put the configure.sh, config.h.in, and aclocal.m4 files in the
alternate build dir along with the other generated files. This requires
that we create symlinks for configure.ac & m4 in the build dir, which is
handled on the first run of configure or prepare-source. I also changed
the patch-branch handling away from the .gen-stash dir to an automatic
build/$PATCH subdir idiom that will keep each branch's configuration
separated. These automatic build dirs are only used when there is a
.git dir, a build/master dir, and no top-dir Makefile. You'll also
want to have package/make early on your path for optimal ease of use.
Files-from data is now sent as multiplexed I/O so that it can mingle
with any messages (such as debug output). Requires protocol 31.
Protocol 31 no longer disables output verbosity in a couple instances
that used to cause protocol issues.
Got rid of MSG_* messages that have implied raw data that follows after
them. We instead send a negative index value as a part of the raw data
stream, which is guaranteed to be output together with the following
data. This only affects the (in-progress) protocol 31 and the (self-
contained) communication stream from the receiver to the generator.
Added --debug=IO and improved --debug=FLIST. Some --debug=IO output
requires --msgs2stderr to be used to see it (i.e. sending a message
about sending a message would send another message, ad infinitum).
- 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.
of running its own test using ln.
- Made the merge test call checkit with absolute paths so that some
folk's cd command won't foul things up with extra output.
tell the client if the server can set the times on a symlink (both
the server->client byte and the client->server use of -e). Make use
of this info to allow the proper output of the 't' flag when rsync
can set the time on a symlink (and we're talking protocol >= 30).
Added output of "[no] symtimes" info in the --version message.
Fixed the itemize.test so that it works when rsync believes that it
can set the time of a symlink, but it can't really do it.
debugging on failures.
- Added the function filter_outfile() and used it in place of the
various output-filtering commands.
- Use the sed rules for filtering the combination of --itemized
output with double-verbose output so that we're sure there's no
superfluous lines being output (which the old grep filtering
would have ignored).
