I decided that combining --link-dest with -I doesn't make much sense

       will now allow a hard-link to be created to a matching link-dest file
       even when the file's modify-time doesn't match the server's file.

+    - When --inplace creates a file, it is now created with owner read/write
+      permissions (0600) instead of no permissions at all.  This avoids a

+      will not update a file that has no write permissions).

+    - Added the --remove-source-files option as a replacement for the (now
+      deprecated) --remove-sent-files option.  This new option removes all
+      non-dirs from the source directories, even if the file was already

+      was using --remove-sent-files and restarting it could leave behind
+      a file that the earlier rsync synchronized, but didn't get to remove.
