--dry-run now handshakes with a remote/daemon receiver and reports what
WOULD transfer/skip based on receiver state, mutating nothing on either
side.
- Serialize Config.dry_run into the wire config frame and append
STATUS_DRY_RUN_TRANSFER to the status enum (no renumbering); bump
PROTOCOL_VERSION/CMake VERSION/CHANGELOG/golden wire to 2.21.0.
- Receiver: receive_incremental_check_ex runs the normal read-only
decision and answers STATUS_OK (skip) or STATUS_DRY_RUN_TRANSFER
(would transfer) with no basis materialization/append/delta/full
transfer. All mutation sites are guarded by !dry_run: file store,
manifest deletes, --mkpath root creation, --delay-updates staging,
publication, directory-time application, and outcome acks.
- Client: send_dry_run_remote connects, sends the config, checks each
regular file and prints the would-transfer set + trailer; no file data
or delete manifest is sent. Plain local destinations keep the
client-side manifest.
Every client on loopback shares the 127.0.0.1 identity, so counting them
against 'max connections per host' or the default-on auth lockout lets one
local client deny service to all the others (and makes a shared-NAT/proxy
address a natural DoS vector for remote clients). Use
utils_fd_peer_is_local (fail-closed) in the daemon gate to exempt a
provably local peer from the per-source cap and the auth lockout while
keeping the per-module and global caps. Remote peers are unchanged.
Document the shared-NAT/proxy identity limitation and the loopback
exemption in README/RSYNC_COMPAT/CHANGELOG, update the integration test to
assert the exemption, and fix the README 'auth failure delay' cap (5000,
not 60000).
- Protocol version 2.19.0 (SCRAM-SHA-256 daemon auth replacing the replayable digest)
- Salted PBKDF2 verifier store + --hash-credentials; legacy store hard-rejected
- Persistent anti-enumeration dummy key (<store>.dummykey)
- Verified TLS / opted-in loopback transport required for auth modules
- Secret wiping; carried-over hardening from the security phases
- Add CHANGELOG.md and set the CMake project version
