The compression level of the first file in the transfer no longer sets
the level for all files that follow it. Document that per-file level
switching has no current effect (except for a global "dont compress = *"
rule in the daemon).
- Use -pedantic-errors with gcc to make an array-init fatal.
- Fix all the extra warnings that gcc outputs due to this option.
- Also add -Wno-pedantic to gcc if we're using the internal popt
code (since it has lots of pedantic issues).
- All the memory-allocation macros now auto-check for failure and exit
with a failure message that incudes the caller's file and lineno
info. This includes strdup().
- Added the `--max-alloc=SIZE` option to be able to override the memory
allocator's sanity-check limit. It defaults to 1G (as before).
Fixes bugzilla bug 12769.
- Add the zlibx (external-code compatible) compression name.
- Re-enable zlib support with the external library so it can be
tried as a fallback if zlibx isn't available.
- Add --compress-choice=STR (aka -zz=STR) option.
- Make --cc=STR an alias for --checksum-choice=STR.
- Hook up the new compression negotiation logic.
Adding new-style compression that only compresses the literal data that
is sent over the wire and not also matching file data that was not sent.
This new-style compression is compatible with external zlib instances,
and will eventually become the default (once enough time has passed that
all servers support the --new-compress and --old-compress options).
NOTE: if you build rsync with an external zlib (i.e. if you specified
configure --with-included-zlib=no) you will ONLY get support for the
--new-compress option! A client will treat -z as uncompressed (with a
warning) and a server will exit with an error (unless -zz was used).
- Standardized the format of the opening comment, including adding a
brief description of what's in the file for those that lacked it.
- Added some missing copyright lines.
- Some minor whitespace tweaks (in a few of the files).
