-NEWS for rsync 3.1.1 (UNRELEASED)
+NEWS for rsync 3.1.4 (UNRELEASED)
Protocol: 31 (unchanged)
-Changes since 3.1.0:
+Changes since 3.1.3:
BUG FIXES:
- - Fixed a failure to remove the partial-transfer temp file when interrupted
- (and rsync is not saving the partial files).
+ - Avoid a potential out-of-bounds read in daemon mode if argc can be made
+ to become 0.
- - Changed the chown/group/xattr-set order to avoid losing some security-
- related xattr info (that would get cleared by a chown).
+ - Fix xattr filter rules losing an 'x' attribute in a non-local transfer.
- - Fixed a bug in the early daemon protocol where a timeout failed to be
- honored (e.g. if the remote side fails to send us the initial protocol
- greeting).
-
- - Fixed unintended inclusion of commas in file numbers in the daemon log.
-
- - We once again send the 'f' sub-flag (of -e) to the server side so it
- knows that we can handle incremental-recursion directory errors properly
- in older protocols.
-
- - Fixed an issue with too-aggressive keep-alive messages causing a problem
- for older rsync versions early in the transfer.
-
- - Fixed an incorrect message about backup-directory-creation when using
- --dry-run and the backup dir is not an absolute path.
-
- - Fixed a bug where a failed deletion might not affect the exit code.
-
- - Fixed a bug that caused a failure when combining --delete-missing-args
- with --xattrs and/or --acls.
-
- - Fixed a problem with --info=progress2's output stats where rsync would
- only update the stats at the end of each file's transfer. It now uses
- the data that is flowing for the current file, making the stats more
- accurate and less jumpy.
-
- - Fixed an itemize bug that affected the combo of --link-dest, -X, and -n.
-
- - Fixed a problem with delete messages not appearing in the log file when
- the user didn't use --verbose.
-
- - Improve chunked xattr reading for OS X.
-
- - Removed an attempted hard-link xattr optimization that was causing a
- transfer failure. (If you need to interact with an rsync 3.1.0 using
- --hard-links & --xattrs, you can specify --protocol=30.)
-
- - We now generate a better error if the buffer overflows in do_mknod().
-
- - Fixed a problem reading more than 16 ACLs on some OSes.
-
- - Switched Cygwin back to using socketpair "pipes" to try to speed it up.
-
- - Added knowledge of a few new options to rrsync.
+ - Fix a compiler error/warning about shifting a negative value (in the zlib
+ code).
ENHANCEMENTS:
- - Added the support/rsync-no-vanished wrapper script.
-
- - Made configure more prominently mention when we failed to find yodl (in
- case the user wants to be able to generate manpages from *.yo files).
-
- DEVELOPER RELATED:
-
- - We now include an example systemd file (in packaging/systemd).
+ - Added support for RSYNC_SHELL & RSYNC_NO_XFER_EXEC environment variables
+ that affect the pre-xfer exec and post-xfer exec rsync daemon options.
