rsync: updated to 3.3.0

NEWS for rsync 3.3.0 (6 Apr 2024)

Changes in this version:

BUG FIXES:

Fixed a bug with --sparse --inplace where a trailing gap in the source file \ 
would not clear out the trailing data in the destination file.

Fixed an buffer overflow in the checksum2 code if SHA1 is being used for the \ 
checksum2 algorithm.

Fixed an issue when rsync is compiled using _FORTIFY_SOURCE so that the extra \ 
tests don't complain about a strlcpy() limit value (which was too large, even \ 
though it wasn't possible for the larger value to cause an overflow).

Add a backtick to the list of characters that the filename quoting needs to \ 
escape using backslashes.

Fixed a string-comparison issue in the internal handling of --progress (a locale \ 
such as tr_TR.utf-8 needed the internal triggering of --info options to use \ 
upper-case flag names to ensure that they match).

Make sure that a local transfer marks the sender side as trusted.

Change the argv handling to work with a newer popt library -- one that likes to \ 
free more data than it used to.

Rsync now calls OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() when compiled against an older \ 
openssl library.

Fixed a problem in the daemon auth for older protocols (29 and before) if the \ 
openssl library is being used to compute MD4 checksums.

Fixed rsync -VV on Cygwin -- it needed a flush of stdout.

Fixed an old stats bug that counted devices as symlinks.

ENHANCEMENTS:

Enhanced rrsync with the -no-overwrite option that allows you to ensure that \ 
existing files on your restricted but writable directory can't be modified.

Enhanced the manpages to mark links with .UR & .UE. If your nroff doesn't \ 
support these idioms, touch the file .md2man-force in the source directory so \ 
that md-convert gets called with the --force-link-text option, and that should \ 
ensure that your manpages are still readable even with the ignored markup.

Some manpage improvements on the handling of [global] modules.

Changed the mapfrom & mapto perl scripts (in the support dir) into a single \ 
python script named idmap. Converted a couple more perl scripts into python.

Changed the mnt-excl perl script (in the support dir) into a python script.
