-Changes since 3.0.6:
+Changes since 3.0.7:
BUG FIXES:
- - Fixed a bogus free when using --xattrs with --backup.
+ - Fixed a buffer-overflow issue where a directory path that is exactly
+ MAXPATHLEN was not handled correctly.
- - Avoid an error when --dry-run was trying to stat a prior hard-link file
- that hasn't really been created.
+ - Fixed a potential crash when an rsync daemon has a filter/exclude list
+ and the transfer is using ACLs or extended attributes.
- - Fixed a problem with --compress (-z) where the receiving side could
- return the error "inflate (token) returned -5".
+ - Fixed a batch-file writing bug that would not write out the full set of
+ compatibility flags that the transfer was using. This fixes a potential
+ protocol problem for a batch file that contains a sender-side I/O error:
+ it would have been sent in a way that the batch-reader wasn't expecting.
- - Fixed a bug where --delete-during could delete in a directory before it
- noticed that the sending side sent an I/O error for that directory (both
- sides of the transfer must be at least 3.0.7).
+ - Some improvements to the hard-linking code to ensure that device-number
+ hashing is working right, and to supply more information if the hard-link
+ code fails.
- - Improved --skip-compress's error handling of bad character-sets and got
- rid of a lingering debug fprintf().
-
- - Fixed the daemon's conveyance of io_error value from the sender.
-
- - An rsync daemon use seteuid() (when available) if it used setuid().
-
- - Get the permissions right on a --fake-super transferred directory that
- needs more owner permissions to emulate root behavior.
-
- - An absolute-path filter rule (i.e. with a '/' modifier) no longer loses
- its modifier when sending the filter rules to the remote rsync.
-
- - Improved the "--delete does not work without -r or -d" message.
-
- - Improved rsync's handling of --timeout to avoid a weird timeout case
- where the sender could timeout even though it has recently written data
- to the socket (but hasn't read data recently, due to the writing).
-
- - Some misc manpage improvements.
-
- - Fixed the chmod-temp-dir testsuite on a system without /var/tmp.
-
- - 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.
-
- - Improved the error-exit reporting when rsync gets an error trying to
- cleanup after an error: the initial error is reported.
-
- - Improved configure's detection of IPv6 for solaris and cygwin.
-
- - The AIX sysacls routines will now return ENOSYS if ENOTSUP is missing.
-
- - Made our (only used if missing) getaddrinfo() routine use inet_pton()
- (which we also provide) instead of inet_aton().
-
- - The exit-related debug messages now mention the program's role so it is
- clear who output what message.
+ - A couple minor option tweaks to support/rrsync script, and also some
+ regex changes that make vim highlighting happier.
DEVELOPER RELATED:
- - Got rid of type-punned compiler warnings output by newer gcc versions.
-
- - The Makefile now ensures that proto.h will be rebuilt if config.h changes.
+ - Updated the helper scripts in the packaging subdirectory.
- - The testsuite no longer uses "id -u", so it works better on solaris.
+ - Renamed configure.in to configure.ac.
