Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
7
- Initialize xattr data in a couple spots in the hlink code, which avoids a
8
crash when the xattr pointer's memory happens to start out non-zero.
9
Also fixed the itemizing of an alt-dest file's xattrs when hard-linking.
11
- Don't send a bogus "-" option to an older server if there were no short
14
- Fixed skipping of unneeded updates in a batch file when incremental
15
recursion is active. Added a test for this. Made batch-mode handle
16
"redo" files properly (and without hanging).
18
- Fix the %P logfile escape when the daemon logs from inside a chroot.
20
- Fixed the use of -s (--protect-args) when used with a remote source or
21
destination that had an empty path (e.g. "host:"). Also fixed a problem
22
when -s was used when accessing a daemon via a remote-shell.
24
- Fixed the use of a dot-dir path (e.g. foo/./bar) inside a --files-from
25
file when the root of the transfer isn't the current directory.
27
- Fixed a bug with "-K --delete" removing symlinks to directories when
28
incremental recursion is active.
30
- Fixed a hard to trigger hang when using --remove-source-files.
32
- Got rid of an annoying delay when accessing a daemon via a remote-shell.
34
- Properly ignore (superfluous) source args on a --read-batch command.
36
- Improved the manpage's description of the '*' wildcard to remove the
37
confusing "non-empty" qualifier.
39
- Fixed reverse lookups in the compatibility-library version of
42
- Fixed a bug when using --sparse on a sparse file that has over 2GB of
43
consecutive sparse data.
45
- Avoid a hang when using at least 3 --verbose options on a transfer with a
46
client sender (which includes local copying).
48
- Fixed a problem with --delete-delay reporting an error when it was ready
49
to remove a directory that was now gone.
51
- Got rid of a bunch of "warn_unused_result" compiler warnings.
53
- If an ftruncate() on a received file fails, it now causes a partial-
56
- Allow a path with a leading "//" to be preserved (CYGWIN only).
60
- Made the support/atomic-rsync script able to perform a fully atomic
61
update of the copied hierarchy when the destination is setup using a
62
particular symlink idiom.
7
- Fixed a --read-batch hang when rsync is reading a batch file that was
8
created from an incremental-recursion transfer.
10
- Fixed the daemon's socket code to handle the simultaneous arrival of
13
- Fix --safe-links/--copy-unsafe-links to properly handle symlinks that
14
have consecutive slashes in the value.
16
- Fixed the parsing of an [IPv6_LITERAL_ADDR] when a USER@ is prefixed.
18
- The sender now skips a (bogus) symlink that has a 0-length value, which
19
avoids a transfer error in the receiver.
21
- Fixed a case where the sender could die with a tag-0 error if there was
22
an I/O during the sending of the file list.
24
- Fixed the rrsync script to avoid a server-side problem when -e is at the
25
start of the short options.
27
- Fixed a problem where a vanished directory could turn into an exit code
28
23 instead of the proper exit code 24.
30
- Fixed the --iconv conversion of symlinks when doing a local copy.
32
- Fixed a problem where --one-file-system was not stopping deletions on the
33
receiving side when a mount-point directory did not match a directory in
36
- Fixed the dropping of an ACL mask when no named ACL values were present.
38
- Fixed an ACL/xattr corruption issue where the --backup option could cause
39
rsync to associate the wrong ACL/xattr information with received files.
41
- Fixed the use of --xattrs with --only-write-batch.
43
- Fixed the use of --dry-run with --read-batch.
45
- Fixed configure's erroneous use of target.
47
- Fixed configure's --disable-debug option.
49
- Fixed a run-time issue for systems that can't find iconv_open() by adding
50
the --disable-iconv-open configure option.
52
- Complain and die if the user tries to combine --remove-source-files (or
53
the deprecated --remove-sent-files) with --read-batch.
55
- Fixed an failure transferring special files from Solaris to Linux.
