- Add link targets for all option choices, not just the first one.
- Tweak cross-link arg format.
- Add more links, including some in the latest NEWS.
- Split out a few numbered lists.
The new default is to protect args and options from unintended shell
interpretation using backslash escapes. See the new `--old-args` option
for a way to get the old-style splitting. This idiom was chosen over
making `--protect-args` enabled by default because it is more backward
compatible (e.g. it works with rrsync). Fixes#272.
- Convert rrsync to python.
- Enhance security of arg & option checking.
- Reject `-L` (`--copy-links`) by default.
- Add `-munge` and `-no-del` options.
- Tweak the logfile line format.
- Created an rrsync man page.
- Use `configure --with-rrsync` if you want `make install` to install
rrsync and its man page.
- Give lsh more rrsync testing support.
- rsync-no-vanished now avoids joining stdout & stderr, avoids affecting
a non-client run, and gets the rsync status code correctly.
- rsync-slash-strip now avoids affecting a non-client run.
- 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
This is based on the long-standing patch but with the protocol changed
to just use newlines as delimiters instead of null chars (since names
should not contain a newline AND it makes it easier to write a helper
script). Lots of other small improvements and a better default value
for "numeric ids" when using "use chroot" with "name converter".
I replaced git-set-file-times with an improved version that I wrote
recently (in python3). A new script uses it to figure out the
last-modified year for each *.[ch] file and updates its copyright.
It also puts the latest year into the latest-year.h file for the
output of --version.
