combined with --link-dest).
- The outputting of hard-linked files when verbosity was > 1 was not right:
- without -i it would output the name of each hard-linked file as though
- it had been changed (it now outputs a "is hard linked" message for the
- file); with -i it would output all dots for the unchanged attributes of
- a hard-link (it now changes those dots to spaces, as is done for other
- totally unchanged items).

- When backing up a changed symlink or device, get rid of any old backup
item so that we don't get an "already exists" error.
(since the forked process already has a copy of the exclude list,
there's no need to send them a set of duplicates).
- - When --progress is specified, the output of items that the generator
- is creating (e.g. dirs, symlinks) is now integrated into the progress
- output without overlapping it. (Requires protocol 29.)
+ - The output of the items that are being updated by the generator (dirs,
+ symlinks, devices) is now intermingled in the proper order with the
+ output from the items that the receiver is updating (regular files)
+ when pulling. This misordering was particularly bad when --progress
+ was specified. (Requires protocol 29.)
- When --timeout is specified, lulls that occur in the transfer while
the generator is doing work that does not generate socket traffic
