- - The --hard-link option now uses less memory on both the sending and
- receiving side for all protocol versions. For protocol 30, the use
- of a hashtable on the sending side allows us to more efficiently
- convey to the receiver what files are linked together. This reduces
- the amount of data sent over the socket by a considerable margin
- (rather than adding more data), and limits the in-memory storage of
- the device+inode information to just the sending side for the new
- protocol 30, or to the receiving side when speaking an older protocol
- (note that older rsync versions kept the device+inode information on
- both sides).
+ - If a source arg is excluded, --relative no longer adds the excluded
+ arg's implied dirs to the transfer. This fix also made the exclude
+ check happen in the better place in the sending code.
