So? May main point is: Which commits actually broke the functionality? Going from 3.4.3 to 3.4.2 to test should be easy for anyone affected and would have been more helpful than this rant.

I'm not defending bad slop commits, especially for such a long running project but the tribal Fediverse outrage whenever LLMs are involved is often just lazy and uninformed.

To quote this PR: https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/issues/928

Figuring out which commit broke what functionality is not something you can expect users to do.

    No, but that's probably a required skill to have before you initiate claims as to what the cause of the loss of functionality was.
