Rsync Changelog

What's new in Rsync 3.0.6

Oct 14, 2009
  • Fixed a --read-batch hang when rsync is reading a batch file that was created from an incremental-recursion transfer.
  • Fixed the daemon's socket code to handle the simultaneous arrival of
  • multiple connections.
  • Fix --safe-links/--copy-unsafe-links to properly handle symlinks that have consecutive slashes in the value.
  • Fixed the parsing of an [IPv6_LITERAL_ADDR] when a USER@ is prefixed.
  • The sender now skips a (bogus) symlink that has a 0-length value, which
  • avoids a transfer error in the receiver.
  • Fixed a case where the sender could die with a tag-0 error if there was
  • an I/O during the sending of the file list.
  • Fixed the rrsync script to avoid a server-side problem when -e is at the
  • start of the short options.
  • Fixed a problem where a vanished directory could turn into an exit code
  • 23 instead of the proper exit code 24.
  • Fixed the --iconv conversion of symlinks when doing a local copy.
  • Fixed a problem where --one-file-system was not stopping deletions on the receiving side when a mount-point directory did not match a directory in
  • the transfer.
  • Fixed the dropping of an ACL mask when no named ACL values were present.
  • Fixed an ACL/xattr corruption issue where the --backup option could cause
  • rsync to associate the wrong ACL/xattr information with received files.
  • Fixed the use of --xattrs with --only-write-batch.
  • Fixed the use of --dry-run with --read-batch.
  • Fixed configure's erroneous use of target.
  • Fixed configure's --disable-debug option.
  • Fixed a run-time issue for systems that can't find iconv_open() by adding
  • the --disable-iconv-open configure option.
  • Complain and die if the user tries to combine --remove-source-files (or
  • the deprecated --remove-sent-files) with --read-batch.
  • Fixed an failure transferring special files from Solaris to Linux.
