I've released rsync 2.6.4pre2. It was a little sooner than expected, but I wanted to get the new keep-alive packets out for testing. Plus, one backward-compatibility bug had the potential to be rather annoying. The changes since 2.6.3 are here: http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/preview/rsync-2.6.4pre2-NEWS The changes since 2.6.4pre1 are as follows: - Added a keep-alive packet that the generator can send to the sender when a --timeout is in effect and no output is ready to go over the socket (e.g. deletions are happening or we're still searching for a changed file). - Added support for a literal IPv6 address enclosed in '[' and ']' to the HOST:PATH and HOST::PATH arg formats (the rsync://HOST:PORT/PATH format was already covered). - Fixed a bug in the sending of an include to an older version of rsync. - Fixed a bug where a file getting resent in the same transfer with --backup and --inplace enabled would get backed up twice. - Some other minor changes and documentation improvements.

It was a little sooner than expected,A couple of things in rsync.1: - the old -c, --checksum line hasn't been removed. - there's a -C without enclosing \fB and \fP In rsyncd.conf.1: - you replaced behaviour with behavior. I prefer the former (having been to an English school :-) - %o for the operation, which is "send", "recv", or "del\&." The period after the del should probably be outside the quotes? Paul Slootman
