Op de website van Samba.org is alweer de tiende prerelease van rsync 3.0.0 verschenen. Dit programma biedt een snelle manier om bestanden geheel of gedeeltelijk tussen verschillende locaties te synchroniseren. Het wordt dan ook veel gebruikt in allerlei synchronisatieprogramma's, maar ook bijvoorbeeld voor de backup van fileservers. Wie hier meer over wil weten kan de beschikbare documentatie doorlezen, waarin ook een aantal tutorials staan vermeld. De aankondiging ziet er als volgt uit:
Rsync 3.0.0pre10 released
I've just released rsync 3.0.0pre10. I incorporated the latest daemon security fixes, and decided to include a few more minor bug fixes as well. If all goes well, this should be released as 3.0.0 final sometime next week.
Please help to test it to ensure that we're ready to go! Send email to the rsync mailing list with your questions, comments, bug reports, etc.
The following changes were made since pre9 was released:To see a full summary of the changes since 2.6.9, visit this page.
- Added the daemon option "numeric ids" to make writable rsync daemons safer by default.
- Added a way to specify an inner-chroot path for an rsync daemon. This can make some operations safer (e.g. dynamic library loading).
- Added the "charset" daemon option that allows a client to use the --iconv option w/o the daemon needing any iconv libraries in a chroot area.
- We properly itemize the 't' (time) difference for symlinks if the receiver can set the modification time on a symlink.
- Fixed a bug with the itemized output for 'p' (perms).
- Got rid of some duplicated extra-verbose messages for certain directory operations.
- Padded the "*deleting" itemized output for better alignment.
- A daemon no longer logs files as received if the transfer was run with --only-write-batch.
- Improved Makefile changes for reconfigure and distclean.
