I was just mentioning to J.W. that I thought we had so much good stuff already in CVS that we should try to button things up in the next month or so, really hammer on it a while, and then crank out a new release. There have been a lot of optimizations that make it use less CPU and less memory, which I like a lot. I do think the changes have been pretty significant, so we obviously need to do some testing to make sure that we haven't busted something important. However, it's looking really stable to me so far -- I run it for all my rsyncing.
Wayne,
ok, I'm on the "hammering CVS" bandwagon, so I just downloaded and compiled the latest nightly snapshot on a redhat 7.3 box and I have a small problem to report. I configured rsync using "./configure --with-included-popt" and got a bunch of warnings (see below).
Is this worth worrying about? I'm not sure how many people use the built-in popt these days...
