+NEWS for rsync 2.6.3 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 28 (unchanged)
+Changes since 2.6.2:
+
+ BUG FIXES:
+
+ - Fixed a crash bug that might appear when --delete was used and
+ multiple source directories were specified.
+
+ - The --backup code no longer attempts to create some directories
+ over and over again (generating warnings along the way).
+
+ - Fixed a bug in the reading of the secrets file (by the daemon) and
+ the password file (by the client): the files no longer need to be
+ terminated by a newline for their content to be read in.
+
+ - If a file has a read error on the sending side, the receiver will
+ no longer keep the resulting file unless the --partial option was
+ specified. (Note: both sides must be running 2.6.3 for this to
+ work -- older receivers always keep the file, and older senders
+ don't tell the receiver that the file was not read correctly.)
+
+ - If a file gets resent in a single transfer and the --backup option
+ is enabled, rsync no longer performs a duplicate backup (losing the
+ original file in the process).
+
+ - Fixed an age-old crash problem with --read-batch on a local copy
+ (rsync was improperly assuming --whole-file for the local copy).
+
+ - Files specified in the daemon's "exclude" or "exclude from" config
+ items are now excluded from being uploaded (assuming that the module
+ allows uploading at all) in addition to the old download exclusion.
+
+ - Got rid of a potential hang in the receiver when near the end of a
+ phase.
+
+ - When using --backup without a --backup-dir, rsync no longer preserves
+ the modify time on directories. This avoids confusing NFS.
+
+ - When --copy-links (-L) is specified, we now output a separate error
+ for a symlink that has no referent instead of claiming that a file
+ "vanished".
+
+ - Error messages from the daemon server's option-parsing (such as
+ refused options) now get sent back to the client (the server used
+ to just exit because the socket wasn't in the right state to send
+ the message).
+
+ - Most errors that occur during a daemon transfer are now returned to
+ the user in addition to being logged (some messages are intended to
+ be daemon-only).
+
+ - Fixed a bug in the daemon authentication code when using one of the
+ batch-processing options.
