+NEWS for rsync 3.0.7 (UNRELEASED)
Protocol: 30 (unchanged)
-Changes since 3.0.3:
+Changes since 3.0.6:
BUG FIXES:
- - Fixed a bug in the hard-linking code where it would sometimes try to
- allocate 0 bytes of memory (which fails on some OSes, such as AIX).
+ - Fixed a bogus free when using --xattrs with --backup.
- - Fixed the hard-linking of files from a device that has a device number
- of 0 (which seems to be a common device number on NetBSD).
+ - Avoid an error when --dry-run was trying to stat a prior hard-link file
+ that hasn't really been created.
- - Fixed the handling of a --partial-dir that cannot be created. This
- particularly impacts the --delay-updates option (since the files cannot
- be delayed without a partial-dir), and was potentially destructive if
- the --remove-source-files was also specified.
+ - Improved --skip-compress's error handling of bad character sets and got
+ rid of a lingering debug fprintf().
- - Fixed a couple issues in the --fake-super handling of xattrs when the
- destination files have root-level attributes (e.g. selinux values) that
- a non-root copy can't affect.
+ - Fixed the daemon's conveyance of io_error value from the sender.
- - Improved the keep-alive check in the generator to fire consistently in
- incremental-recursion mode when --timeout is enabled.
+ - An rsync daemon use seteuid() (when available) if it used setuid().
- - The --iconv option now converts the content of a symlink too, instead
- of leaving it in the wrong character-set (requires 3.0.4 on both sides
- of the transfer).
+ - Get the permissions right on a --fake-super transferred directory that
+ needs more owner permissions to emulate root behavior.
- - When using --iconv, if a filename fails to convert on the receiving side,
- this no longer makes deletions in the root-dir of the transfer fail
- silently (the user should see the warning about deletions being disabled
- due to IO error when --ignore-errors was not specified).
+ - Improved the "--delete does not work without -r or -d" message.
- - When using --iconv, if a server-side receiver can't convert a filename,
- it now outputs the name back to the client without mangling the charset.
+ - Some misc manpage improvements.
- - Fixed a potential alignment issue in the IRIX ACL code when allocating
- the initial "struct acl" object. Also, cast mallocs to avoid warnings.
+ - Fixed the chmod-temp-dir testsuite on a system without /var/tmp.
- - Changed some errors that were going to stdout to go to stderr.
+ - Make sure that a timeout specified in the daemon's config is used as a
+ maximum timeout value when the user also specifies a timeout.
- - Made human_num() and human_dnum() able to output a negative number
- (rather than outputting a cryptic string of punctuation).
+ - Improved the error-exit reporting when rsync gets an error trying to
+ cleanup after an error: the initial error is reported.
- ENHANCEMENTS:
+ - Improved configure's detection of IPv6 for solaris and cygwin.
- - Rsync will avoid sending an -e option to the server if an older protocol
- is requested (and thus the option would not be useful). This lets the
- user specify the --protocol=29 option to access an overly-restrictive
- server that is rejecting the protocol-30 use of -e to the server.
+ - The AIX sysacls routines will now return ENOSYS if ENOTSUP is missing.
- - Improved the message output for an RERR_PARTIAL exit.
+ - Made our (only used if missing) getaddrinfo() routine use inet_pton()
+ (which we also provide) instead of inet_aton().
DEVELOPER RELATED:
- - The Makefile will not halt for just a timestamp change on the Makefile
- or the configure files, only for actual changes in content.
+ - Got rid of type-punned compiler warnings output by newer gcc versions.
- - Enhanced the release scripts to be able to handle a branch release.
+ - The Makefile now ensures that proto.h will be rebuilt if config.h changes.
