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
config 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
in 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.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- 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 "\\".
INTERNAL:
- Rsync now calls setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "").
BUILD CHANGES:
- 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.
