- - Added the --only-write-batch=FILE option that may be used (instead
- of --write-batch=FILE) to create a batch file without doing any
- actual updating of the destination. This allows you to divert all
- the file-updating data away from a slow data link (as long as you
- are pushing the data to the remote server when creating the batch).
-
- - Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped
- characters rather than '?'s. Any non-printable character is output
- using octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and backslash is output as "\\".
+ - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files
+ that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new
+ files).
