- The receiver notifies the generator if it is exiting with an error,
and then, if it is a server, waits around for the generator to die.
This ensures that the client side has time to read the error.
- The generator or sender will notifiy the other side of the transfer of
an error-exit value if protocol 31 is in effect. This will get rid of
some "connection unexpectedly closed" errors that are really expected
events due to a fatal exit on the other side.
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).
(instead of the start) in order to be extra sure that an error won't
overwrite it. We also ensure that the progress option can't be enabled
on the server side.
- 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.
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.
