1 NEWS for rsync 3.0.7 (UNRELEASED)
2 Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
7 - Fixed a bogus free when using --xattrs with --backup.
9 - Avoid an error when --dry-run was trying to stat a prior hard-link file
10 that hasn't really been created.
12 - Improved --skip-compress's error handling of bad character-sets and got
13 rid of a lingering debug fprintf().
15 - Fixed the daemon's conveyance of io_error value from the sender.
17 - An rsync daemon use seteuid() (when available) if it used setuid().
19 - Get the permissions right on a --fake-super transferred directory that
20 needs more owner permissions to emulate root behavior.
22 - Improved the "--delete does not work without -r or -d" message.
24 - Tweaked the sending of NOOP messages (which try to prevent a timeout) to
25 work with older protocols (supporting rsync 2.6.3 and older).
27 - Some misc manpage improvements.
29 - Fixed the chmod-temp-dir testsuite on a system without /var/tmp.
31 - Make sure that a timeout specified in the daemon's config is used as a
32 maximum timeout value when the user also specifies a timeout.
34 - Improved the error-exit reporting when rsync gets an error trying to
35 cleanup after an error: the initial error is reported.
37 - Improved configure's detection of IPv6 for solaris and cygwin.
39 - The AIX sysacls routines will now return ENOSYS if ENOTSUP is missing.
41 - Made our (only used if missing) getaddrinfo() routine use inet_pton()
42 (which we also provide) instead of inet_aton().
44 - The exit-related debug messages now mention the program's role so it is
45 clear who output what message.
49 - Got rid of type-punned compiler warnings output by newer gcc versions.
51 - The Makefile now ensures that proto.h will be rebuilt if config.h changes.
53 - The testsuite no longer uses "id -u", so it works better on solaris.
