Rdiff-backup v0.9.5 Release Notes

Release Date: 2002-08-09 // over 21 years ago
  • 🛠 Fixed --verbosity option (now both -v and --verbosity work). Thanks to Chris Dumont for report.

    ****** IMPORTANT ****** Fixed serious permissions bug found by Robert Weber. Previous versions in the 0.9.x branch would throw away high bit permissions (like the setuid and setuid bits). This would be especially bad when running with the --change-source-perms operation. ⬆️ Anyone running 0.9.0 - 0.9.4 should upgrade immediately.

    Complain about --change-source-perms when running as root, as this option should not be necessary then.

    🛠 Fixed bug with --windows-mode. Thanks to Chris Grindstaff for report.
