|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
* Merged UNC rsync+ patch to support creation of standalone patch
|
|
sets. By Bert J. Dempsey and Debra Weiss, updated by Jos
|
|
Backus. <http://www.ils.unc.edu/i2dsi/unc_rsync+.html>

ENHANCEMENTS
|
|
|
|
* Include/exclude cluestick: with -vv, print out whether files are
|
|
included or excluded and why.
|
|
|
|
* Many error messages have more friendly explanations and more
|
|
details.
|
|
|
|
* Manual page improvements plus scanty protocol documentation.
|
|
|
|
* When running as --daemon in the background and using a "log
|
|
file" rsyncd.conf directive, close the log file every time it is
|
|
open when going to sleep on the socket. This allows the log
|
|
file to get cleaned out by another process.
|
|
|
|
* Change to using libpopt rather than getopt for processing
|
|
options. This makes the code cleaner and the behaviour more
|
|
consistent across platforms. popt is included and built if not
|
|
installed on the platform.
|
|
|
|
* More details in --version, including note about whether 64-bit
|
|
files, symlinks and hardlinks are supported.
|
|
|
|
* MD4 code may use less CPU cycles.
|
|
|
|
* Use mkstemp on systems where it is secure. If we use mktemp,
|
|
explain that we do it in a secure way.
|
|
|
|
* --whole-file is the default when source and target are on the
|
|
local machine.
|
|
|
|
BUG FIXES:
|
|
|
|
* Attempt to fix Large File Summit support on AIX.
|
|
|
|
* Attempt to fix error handling lockup bug.
|
|
|
|
* Give a non-0 exit code if *any* of the files we have been asked
|
|
to transfer fail to transfer
|
|
|
|
* Applied "simple nohang patch" from Wayne Davison.
|
|
|
|
* For log messages containing ridiculously long strings that might
|
|
overflow a buffer rsync no longer aborts, but rather prints an
|
|
ellipsis at the end of the string. (Patch from Ed Santiago.)
|
|
|
|
PLATFORMS:
|
|
|
|
* Improved support for UNICOS (tested on Cray T3E and Cray SV1)
|
|
|
|
* autoconf2.52 (or later) is now required to rebuild the autoconf
|
|
scripts. It is not required to simply build rsync.
|
|
|
|
TESTING:
|
|
|
|
* The existing test.sh script by Phil Hands has been merged into a
|
|
test framework that works from both "make check" and the Samba
|
|
build farm.
