NEWS for rsync 2.6.5 (UNRELEASED)
|
|
Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
|
|
Changes since 2.6.4:
|
|
|
|
BUG FIXES:
|
|
|
|
- A crash bug was fixed when a daemon had its "path" set to "/", did
|
|
not have chroot enabled, and used some anchored excludes in the
|
|
rsyncd.conf file.
|
|
|
|
- Fixed a case where the generator might try to tweak the write
|
|
permissions of a read-only directory in list-only mode.
|
|
|
|
- If --compare-dest or --link-dest uses a locally-copied file as the
|
|
basis for an updated version, log this better when --verbose or -i
|
|
is in effect.
|
|
|
|
- Fixed the accidental disabling of --backup during the --delete-after
|
|
processing.
|
|
|
|
- Restored the ability to use the --address option in client mode (in
|
|
addition to its use in daemon mode).
|
|
|
|
- Make sure that some temporary progress information from the delete
|
|
processing does not get left on the screen when it is followed by a
|
|
newline.
|
|
|
|
- When --existing skips a directory with extra verbosity, don't refer
|
|
to it as a "file".
|
|
|
|
ENHANCEMENTS:
|
|
|
|
- Added the --only-write-batch=FILE option that may be used (instead
|
|
of --write-batch=FILE) to create a batch file without doing any
|
|
actual updating of the destination. This allows you to divert all
|
|
the file-updating data away from a slow data link (as long as you
|
|
are pushing the data to the remote server when creating the batch).
|
|
|
|
- Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped
|
|
characters rather than '?'s. Any non-printable character is output
|
|
using octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and backslash is output as "\\".
|
|
|
|
- Improved the auth-errors that are logged by the daemon to include
|
|
some information on why the authorization failed (wrong user,
|
|
password mismatch, etc.). (The client-visible message is unchanged.)
|
|
|
|
- Improved the client's handling of an "@ERROR" from a daemon so that
|
|
it does not complain about an unexpectedly closed socket (since we
|
|
really did expect the socket to close).
|
|
|
|
- If the daemon can't open the log-file specified in rsyncd.conf, fall
|
|
back to using syslog. This is better than a (typically) totally
|
|
silent failure (since a daemon is not usually run with --no-detach).
|
|
|
|
INTERNAL:
|
|
|
|
- Rsync now calls setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "").
|
|
|
|
BUILD CHANGES:
|
|
|
|
- Fixed a bug in the SUPPORT{,_HARD}_LINKS defines which prevented
|
|
rsync from being built without symlink or hard-link support.
|
|
|
|
- You can use --disable-locale to turn off any use of setlocale().
|
|
|
|
- Configure now disables the use of mkstemp() under HP-UX (since they
|
|
refuse to fix its broken handling of large files).
|
|
|
|
- Configure now explicitly checks for the lseek64() function so that
|
|
the code can use HAVE_LSEEK64 instead of inferring lseek64()'s
|
|
presence based on the presence of the off64_t type.
