NEWS for rsync 2.6.7 (UNRELEASED)
Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
Changes since 2.6.6:
BUG FIXES:
- If the user specifies a remote-host for both the source and destination,
we now output a syntax error rather than trying to open the destination
hostspec as a filename.
- When --inplace creates a new destination file, rsync now creates it with
permissions 0600 instead of 0000 -- this makes restarting possible when
the transfer gets interrupted in the middle of sending a new file.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files
that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new
files).
- If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
preservation of attributes on symlinks.
- Added two config items to the rsyncd.conf parsing: "pre-xfer exec"
and "post-xfer exec". These allow a command to be specified on a
per-module basis that will be run before and/or after a daemon-mode
transfer.
INTERNAL:
- Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where
MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin).
- If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit
with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer.
