rsync Description

rsync is a file transfer program to keep remote files in sync. rsync is a replacement for rcp (and scp) that has many more features. It uses the "rsync algorithm" which provides a very fast method for remote files into sync.rsync project does this by sending just the differences in the files across the link, without requiring that both sets of files are present at one of the ends of the link beforehand. What's New in This Release: · 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 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.
