I have released rsync 3.2.4. Another typical release with both bug fixes and some enhancements. It also contains a security fix for the bundled zlib 1.2.8, which may or may not be used in your particular build configuration.

For those packaging rsync 3.2.4 using a C compiler where "char" defaults to "unsigned char", such as ARM systems, rsync 3.2.4 will potentially generate the wrong rolling checksum values, thus failing to optimize the copy with the full amount of matching local data from a prior copy when high-bit characters are present. This can be fixed using a simple configure patch: https://download.samba.org/pub/rsync/rsync-schar-fix-3.2.4.diff After applying that, doing a full configure & make will fix things up (those updating an existing build dir can use "make reconfigure" & make). This fix is committed to git for the upcoming 3.2.5 release. ..wayne..>-------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I have released rsync version 3.2.5pre1 for release testing. This includes a checksum fix that affects some architectures (such as ARM), improves the security of the received file list, enhances the manpage, etc. I'd really appreciate it if people would give this release some extensive testing and see if the improved security results in any false alerts. I did a bunch of testing and found a few options that caused a problem (and were then fixed), but there may be more. You can use a side-effect of the --old-args option <https://download.samba.org/pub/rsync/rsync.1#opt--old-args> to work around an invalid complaint, but please also report it. Thanks!
