Stats / delete / output (fix/parity-stats)
--delete-delay counts only actual removals; --stats gains the (reg/dir/link/special) breakdown and counts only transferred regulars; --progress prints the leading ./ line and correct to-chk; %C uses the selected transfer checksum; checksum_digest_file supports md4/sha1/none. --out-format reclassified ❌ (%b/delta-%c are protocol-specific).
Add tests/integration/test_differential_parity.py plus a shared
parity_harness.py and a data-driven parity_caveats.py allowlist. The gate
runs real rsync 3.4.1 and FastSync over the same corpora, compares the
destination trees (paths, hashes, symlink targets, modes, hard-link
grouping) and the normalized -i/--stats/--out-format output, and fails on
any difference not listed in the allowlist. Stale allowlist entries warn
(or fail under FASTSYNC_PARITY_STRICT=1) so the residual list shrinks.
Register parity/parity_ci markers and wire a fast PR job (parity_ci) plus a
push-only full job (parity, strict) into .gitea/workflows/ci.yaml.
Document the gate and the allowlist workflow in tests/integration/README.md.
- --delete-delay: count/track only entries actually removed; a directory
refilled before commit (ENOTEMPTY) no longer inflates Number of deleted
files or the --max-delete budget (unit + integration + rsync differential).
- --stats: per-type Number of files breakdown; only stored regular files
count as transferred; transferred/literal byte totals and Total file size
(symlink target lengths) now match rsync for whole-file transfers.
- --progress: print the leading ./ root line and include the root entry in
the to-chk denominator (single-file output byte-identical to rsync).
- --out-format %C: use the selected transfer checksum and render every
algorithm exactly like rsync; checksum_digest_file gains md4/sha1/none.
Reclassify --out-format to Divergent (protocol-specific %b/delta-%c).
- Docs: RSYNC_COMPAT tally 107/25/24, HANDOFF update. No wire change.
- Recursive scans emit a directory entry for every traversed directory that
produced no transferred child, so empty source dirs (and dirs emptied by
filtering) are recreated like rsync; -m prunes them, --files-from/--list-only
never emit implicit dirs.
- A directory entry now replaces a destination regular file (rsync removes the
non-directory) instead of aborting; confined to the secure parent fd.
- -R --no-implied-dirs --files-from: stop refusing a listed file whose parent
is not listed; create the implied parent with default attributes (no source
metadata is captured for it), matching rsync 3.4.1.
- Differential gate: drop min_size/empty_dirs_recursive/dirs_plain allowlist
entries (dirs_plain now hands FastSync the same trailing-slash source as
rsync); add differential test for the files-from implied parent.
- Docs: -d row -> Parity, tally 108/24/24.
No wire change (PROTOCOL_VERSION stays 2.26.0).
- --iconv now matches rsync's push direction: the destination charset is the
client spec's REMOTE half, so a default receiver writes wire names verbatim;
a server's own --iconv LOCAL overrides it (daemon charset analog). Updated
unit + integration tests and added a default-server differential gate case.
- Empty-directory emission is gated behind a new ScannerOptions.emit_empty_dirs
set only by the real sender, so low-level scanner helpers keep the historical
file-only list.
- --temp-dir reclassified to Divergent: relative dirs match rsync exactly
(resolved under the destination), but an absolute path is deliberately
rejected by the confined receiver; differential test added.
- Docs/tally: 109 Parity / 22 Caveat / 25 Divergent.
- --bwlimit: faithful port of rsync 3.4.1 parse_size_arg (default KiB/s,
binary K/M/G/T/P, decimal KB/MB, KiB/MiB, decimals, 0 = unlimited, 512-byte
floor, (size+512)/1024 quantization). Unit tests + docs.
- --info: wire del/remove/name/flist/nonreg/progress to real FastSync events in
rsync's line format (deleting PATH, sender removed NAME, name lines,
'sending incremental file list', skipping non-regular file "NAME"); name no
longer aliases copy; --info=progress drives the progress path and report_stats.
- --ignore-errors: match rsync's default -- a source I/O error skips deletion
unless --ignore-errors, while the readable tree still transfers and the run
exits 23. Covers all delete timings and both send paths.
Each row's exact residual reproduced against rsync 3.4.1:
- basis dirs (--compare/copy/link-dest): FastSync xxHash-verifies a basis hit
while rsync --size-only installs the wrong same-size basis content.
- --delay-updates: the fixed .fastsync-stage name wipes an unrelated
destination entry of that name even without --delete; rsync leaves it.
- --fuzzy: deterministic name/size heuristic (10x window), not rsync's matcher.
- --dry-run: would-delete report over-reports the updated file and an
excluded-but-protected extra, and ordering differs.
Docs: RSYNC_COMPAT tally 109/16/31; HANDOFF item 9. clang-format + cppcheck +
ASan + full suite clean.
- Wire: config frame gains report_deletes (protocol 2.26.0 -> 2.27.0); the
receiver lists actually-removed paths in the STATUS_STATS path list, so the
sender prints rsync's `deleting PATH` / `*deleting PATH` lines for a real
--delete run (and -i/out-format). Observers threaded through the manifest,
missing-args and per-directory delete engines; golden wire len/hash updated.
- bwlimit: throttle now paces like rsync 3.4.1 -- ~100ms burst capacity and the
sleep is no longer credited as refill, so 4 MiB at 1024/2048 KiB/s matches
rsync within ~4% (was ~2x too fast).
- Initialize PipelineContextSender.delete_suppressed=false: an uninitialized
true silently skipped the --delete keep-set manifest under -m/--threads,
so destination extras were never removed.
- Allocate/install the receiver deleted-path observer only when
report_deletes is set (--info=del / -i / --out-format under --delete), cap
the retained list at MAX_MANIFEST_ENTRIES, and free already-created lists
on the receiver-pipeline create failure path.
- Validate report_deletes/report_stats/report_dest_info on receive.
- Correct stale comments (config.h report_deletes, delete_plan.h deleted
count, multiprocessing.h stats locking, utils.h observer placement).
- Tests: sender delete_suppressed init, report_deletes gating (unit), and
-m/--delete default delete-after keep-set removal (integration).
- cli: remove UB in --bwlimit scaling (range-check the double product before
casting, drop atoi for the +/-1 form) and add huge/boundary unit tests
- test: widen the CI throttle wall-clock band to [1.5, 4.5]s with a 2s
cross-tolerance so a loaded runner cannot flake it
- log: drop the unused LOG_INFO_BACKUP bit; --info=backup is accepted-but-
silent like the other rsync-only categories
- client_send: remove the duplicate delete_display_path forward declaration
- utils: add non-allocating utils_strip_transfer_root and use it from
scanner_note_nonreg and delete_display_path (was duplicated logic)
- scanner: lstat() instead of stat() when re-reading an empty dir's metadata
- file: drop the no-op else-if and the redundant ELOOP arm in
file_ensure_directory_secure (symlinks are refused anyway)
- format/stats: document literal_data as whole-file accurate (delta upper
bound) instead of claiming literal bytes sent
- docs: refresh stale protocol 2.26.0 labels to 2.27.0
- --delete-delay: state that the reported count advances on actual removal
while --max-delete is charged at plan/snapshot time (defer_add/planned).
A new differential shows rsync instead charges on actual removals and
recursively removes a queued directory, so the row moves to Caveat
(matrix 111/13/33) and the residual is pinned by tests.
- Add a deterministic unit test (plan-time budget charge), a FastSync
integration test (byte-barrier refill + --max-delete), and an rsync
differential for a refilled deferred directory.
- Soften the --fuzzy summary: the tree is byte-exact by design, so it is
pinned by the threshold suite, not a byte-level differential.
- README: describe what -m parity actually selects; fix the allowlist
example to the real max_delete entry.
- xdist-safe delete-timing fixture names (timing and --threads mode).
- Renumber the duplicate HANDOFF item 9 to 10; add the missing final
newline to test_checksum.c.
- Expose ignore_errors_allows_delete and unit-test the deletion gate
without a privileged source directory; update the stale deleted-count
doc comment.
