+ * Fixed the "refuse options" setting in the rsyncd.conf file.
+
+ * Improved the -x (--one-file-system) flag's handling of any
+ mount-point directories we encounter. It is both more optimal
+ (in that it no longer does a useless scan of the contents of
+ the mount-point dirs) and also fixes a bug where a remaped
+ mount of the original filesystem could get discovered on a
+ disk we should be ignoring.
+
+ * Rsync no longer discards a double-slash at the start of a filename
+ when trying to open the file. It also no longer constructs names
+ that start with a double slash (unless the user supplied them).
+
+ * Fixed compilation problem on Tru64 Unix (having to do with
+ sockaddr.sa_len and sockaddr.sin_len).
+
+ * Fixed a compatibility problem interacting with older rsync
+ versions that might send us an empty suffix without telling us
+ about the backup-dir.
+
+ * The "hosts allow" option for a daemon-over-remote-shell
+ process now has improved support for IPv6 addresses and a fix
+ for systems that have a length field in their socket structs.
+
+ * Fixed the ability to request an empty backup suffix when
+ sending files to an rsync daemon.
+
+ INTERNAL:
+
+ * Most of the I/O is now buffered, which results in a pretty
+ large speedup when running under MS Windows. (Craig Barratt)
+
+ * Optimizations to the name-handling/comparing code have made
+ some significant reductions in user-CPU time for large file
+ sets.
+
+ * Some variable-type cleanup that makes the code more consistent.
+
+ * Reduced memory requirements of hard link preservation.
+ (J.W. Schultz)
+
+ * Implemented a new algorithm for hard-link handling that speeds
+ up the code significantly. (J.W. Schultz and Wayne Davison)
+
+ * The --hard-link option now uses the first existing file in the
+ group of linked files as the basis for the transfer. This
+ prevents the sub-optimal transfer of a file's data when a new
+ hardlink is added on the sending side and it sorts alphabetically
+ earlier in the list than the files that are already present on the
+ receiving side.
+
+ * Dropped support for protocol versions less than 20
+ (2.3.0 released 15 Mar 1999) and activated warnings for
+ protocols less than 25 (2.5.0 released 23 Aug 2001)
+ (Wayne Davison and J.W. Schultz, severally)
