-NEWS for rsync version 2.5.6, aka the dwd-between-jobs release
-Protocol: 26 (unchanged)
-Changes since version 2.5.5:
+ - Fixed the matching of the dont-compress items (e.g. *.gz) against files
+ that have a path component containing a slash.
+
+ - If code reading a filter/exclude file an EINTR error, rsync now clears
+ the error flag on the file handle so it can keep on reading.
+
+ - If --relative is active, the sending side cleans up trailing "/" or "/."
+ suffixes to avoid triggering a bug in older rsync versions. Also, we now
+ reject a ".." dir if it would be sent as a relative dir.
+
+ - If a non-directory is in the way of a directory and rsync is run with
+ --dry-run and --delete, rsync no longer complains about not being able
+ to opendir() the not-yet present directory.
+
+ - Got rid of the need for --force to be used in some circumstances with
+ --delete-after (making it consistent with --delete-before/-during).
