Andrew has been busy. Time for a new release. -dean
New in v1.1.13 (2007/08/12) --------------------------- Properly pickle QuotedRPaths. Fixes regress operation on quoted filesystems. Closes Savannah bug #20570 reported by Morgan Read. (Andrew Ferguson) Warn if can't write extended attribute. (Andrew Ferguson) Gracefully handle situations where rdiff-backup tries to set the sticky bit on non-directory files on systems that don't support that action. Thanks to Jim Nasby for the bug report. (Andrew Ferguson) Prevent the extended filenames / UTF-8 test from raising an exception on broken CIFS configurations which transform some characters to '?'. Problem reported by Luca Cappe. (Andrew Ferguson) Cygwin on FAT32 hangs when trying to open a file named "aux". Change the escape DOS devices test to use "con" instead. (Andrew Ferguson) Fix symlink behavior when filesystem is mounted via CIFS. Closes Savannah bug #20342. (Andrew Ferguson) Fix "too many open files" bug when handling large directories. Patch from Anonymous in Savannah bug #20528. New options: --tempdir and --remote-tempdir. The first one sets the directory that rdiff-backup uses for temporary files on the local system. The second adds the --tempdir option with the given path when invoking rdiff-backup on remote systems. (Andrew Ferguson) Don't run the extended attributes test if rdiff-backup is run with the --no-eas option. Prevents hang in isolated cases. (Andrew Ferguson) Don't throw an error when clearing extended attributes if they are not supported on the file.
