NEWS for rsync 2.6.3 (UNRELEASED)
|
|
Protocol: 28 (unchanged)
|
|
Changes since 2.6.2:
|
|
|
|
BUG FIXES:
|
|
|
|
- Fixed a crash bug that might appear when --delete was used and
|
|
multiple source directories were specified.
|
|
|
|
- The --backup code no longer attempts to create some directories
|
|
over and over again (generating warnings along the way).
|
|
|
|
- Fixed a bug in the reading of the secrets file (by the daemon) and
|
|
the password file (by the client): the files no longer need to be
|
|
terminated by a newline for their content to be read in.
|
|
|
|
- If a file has a read error on the sending side, the receiver will
|
|
no longer keep the resulting file unless the --partial option was
|
|
specified. (Note: both sides must be running 2.6.3 for this to
|
|
work -- older receivers always keep the file, and older senders
|
|
don't tell the receiver that the file was not read correctly.)
|
|
|
|
- Fixed an age-old crash problem with --read-batch on a local copy
|
|
(rsync was improperly assuming --whole-file for the local copy).
|
|
|
|
- Files specified in the daemon's "exclude" or "exclude from" config
|
|
items are now excluded from being uploaded (assuming that the module
|
|
allows uploading at all) in addition to the old download exclusion.
|
|
|
|
- When using --backup without a --backup-dir, rsync no longer preserves
|
|
the modify time on directories. This avoids confusing NFS.
|
|
|
|
- Fixed a bug in the daemon authentication code when using one of the
|
|
batch-processing options.
|
|
|
|
ENHANCEMENTS:
|
|
|
|
- Added the "write only" option to the daemon's config file.
|
|
|
|
- Added long-option names for -4 and -6 (namely --ipv4 and --ipv6)
|
|
and documented all these options in the man page.
|
|
|
|
- Improved the handling of the --bwlimit option so that it's less
|
|
bursty, more accurate, and works properly over a larger range of
|
|
values.
|
|
|
|
- Added the --checksum-seed=N option for advanced users.
|
|
|
|
INTERNAL:
|
|
|
|
- Some cleanup in the exclude code has saved some per-exclude memory
|
|
and made the code easier to maintain.
|
|
|
|
- Use rsyserr() in the various places that were still calling
|
|
rprintf() with strerror() as an arg.
|
|
|
|
BUILD CHANGES:
|
|
|
|
- Added a "gen" target to rebuild most of the generated files,
|
|
including configure, config.h.in, the man pages, and proto.h.
|
|
|
|
- If "make proto" doesn't find some changes in the prototypes, the
|
|
proto.h file is left untouched (its timestamp used to be updated).
|
|
|
|
DEVELOPER RELATED:
|
|
|
|
- The scripts in the testsuite dir were cleaned up a bit.
