	1	NEWS for rsync 3.1.0 (UNRELEASED)
	2	Protocol: 31 (changed)
	3	Changes since 3.0.4:
	4
	5	OUTPUT CHANGES:
	6
	7	- Output numbers in 3-digit groups by default (e.g. 1,234,567). See the
	8	--human-readable option for a way to turn it off. See also the daemon's
	9	"log format" parameter and related command-line options (including
	10	--out-format) for a modifier that can be used to request digit-grouping
	11	or human-readable output in log escapes. (Note that log output is
	12	unchanged by default.)
	13
	14	- The output of the --progress option has changed: the string "xfer" was
	15	shortened to "xfr", and the string "to-check" was shortened to "to-chk",
	16	both designed to make room for the (by default) wider display of file
	17	size numbers without making the total line-length longer. Also, when
	18	incremental recursion is enabled, the string "ir-chk" will be used
	19	instead of "to-chk" up until the incremental-recursion scan is done,
	20	letting you know that the value to check and the total value will still
	21	be increasing as new files are found.
	22
	23	BUG FIXES:
	24
	25	- Changed the way --progress overwrites its prior output in order to make
	26	it nearly impossible for the progress to get overwritten by an error.
	27
	28	ENHANCEMENTS:
	29
	30	- Added the --remote-option=OPT (-M OPT) command-line option that is useful
	31	for things like sending a remote --log-file=FILE or --fake-super option.
	32
	33	- Added the --info=FLAGS and --debug=FLAGS options to allow finer-grained
	34	control over what is output. Added an extra type of --progress output
	35	using --info=progress2.
	36
	37	- Added the --delete-missing option to delete user-specified files on the
	38	receiver that are missing on the sender (normally the absence of user-
	39	specified files generates an error).
	40
	41	- Added a "T" (terabyte) category to the --human-readable size suffixes.
	42
	43	- Enhanced the --stats output: 1) to mention how many files were created
	44	(protocol >= 28), 2) to mention how many files were deleted (new for
	45	protocol 31), and 3) to follow the file-count, created-count, and
	46	deleted-count with a break-out list of each count by type.
	47
	48	- Added the --usermap/--groupmap/--chown options for manipulating file
	49	ownership during the copy.
	50
	51	- Added the "%C" escape to the log-output handling, which will output the
	52	MD5 checksum of any transferred file, or all files if --checksum was
	53	specified (when protocol 30 or above is in effect).
	54
	55	- Added the "reverse lookup" parameter to the rsync daemon config file to
	56	allow reverse-DNS lookups to be disabled.
	57
	58	- Added a way for supplementary groups to be specified in the rsyncd.conf
	59	file. Also made explicitly-set uid/gid values no longer ignored by a
	60	daemon that was not run by a super-user.
	61
	62	EXTRAS:
	63
	64	- Added an "instant-rsyncd" script to the support directory, which makes
	65	it easy to configure a simple rsync daemon in the current directory.
	66
	67	- Added the "mapfrom" and "mapto" scripts to the support directory, which
	68	makes it easier to do user/group mapping in a local transfer based on
	69	passwd/group files from another machine.
	70
	71	DEVELOPER RELATED:
	72
	73	- Added more conditional debug output.
	74
	75	- Really big numbers are now output using our own big-num routine rather
	76	than casting them to a double and using a %.0f conversion.
	77
	78	- The pool_alloc library has received some minor improvements in alignment
	79	handling.
	80
	81	- Added init_stat_x() function to avoid duplication of acl/xattr init code.
