Hello, Please let me know if this is a bug or a feature. I used to be able to do the following with 2.5.5. On a remote host I have /mytree and I mirrored at my local host as a regular user doing rsync -avz --delete kent@host:/mytree /. with 2.5.6 I get mkstemp .file.aFhK3N failed: Permission denied probably because rsync2.5.6 is attempting to create a temporary file on the root directory, which I don't have write permission. On the local host I have permission to write on /mytree. adding something like -T /tmp solves the problem but why did it use to work in 2.5.5 but no longer does? Thanks! Pleace cc.
