[rdiff-backup-users] Version 1.0.1 released


From: Ben Escoto
Subject: [rdiff-backup-users] Version 1.0.1 released
Date: Sat, 10 Sep 2005 23:53:01 -0500

New in v1.0.1 (2005/09/10)
--------------------------

Fix for "'filetype' of type exceptions.KeyError" error when restoring.
Test case provided by Davy Durham.  (The problem was the
mirror_metadata file could become un-synced when a file is deleted
when rdiff-backup is running and later the directory that file is in
gets deleted.)

Librsync signature blocksize now based on square root of file length.

rdiff-backup now writes its PID to current_mirror marker (suggested by
Kevin Spicer).

fsync_directories defaults to None, to avoid errors in testing
(suggestion by Charles Duffy).

bug#14209: Security bug with --restrict-read-only and
--restrict-update-only allowed file statting and directory listing
outside path.  Bug with --restrict option allowed writes outside path.
(Reported by Charles Duffy.)

bug #14304: Python 2.2 compatibility spoiled by device files.

lchown no longer required, which is good news for Mac OS X 10.3.
