also specified as a destination, rsync no longer generates a warning
about being unable to create the missing directory.
+ - Fixed some problems with --relative --no-implied-dirs when the
+ destination directory did not yet exist: we can now create a symlink or

+ - Fixed a bug where the --copy-links option would not affect implied

- Got rid of the need for --force to be used in some circumstances with
--delete-after (making it consistent with --delete-before/-during).
and no destination: this now implies the --list-only option, just like
the comparable situation with a remote source arg.
+ - Added the --copy-dirlinks option, a more limited version of --copy-links.
+
+ - The sender's hash table for checksum information was improved to make it
+ more efficient when updating really large files (starting from around
+ 2.5GB, but most visibly for much larger files). This prevents the hash
+ table from getting overloaded, which saves CPU time (and real time) at
+ the expense of a little extra memory (and it actually saves memory for
+ normal sized files).

- Various documentation improvements, including: a better synopsis, some
improved examples, a better discussion of the presence and absence of
--perms (including how it interacts with the new --executability and
--chmod options), an extended discussion of --temp-dir, an improved
discussion of --partial-dir, a better description of rsync's pattern
- matching characters, and the documenting of what the various items in
- the --stats output mean.
+ matching characters, an improved --no-implied-dirs section, and the
+ documenting of what the --stats option outputs.
- Various new and updated diffs in the patches dir, including: acls.diff,
xattrs.diff, atimes.diff, detect-renamed.diff, and slp.diff.
