- ENHANCEMENTS:
-
- - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files
- that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new
- files).
-
- - Added the --min-size=SIZE option to exclude small files from the
- transfer.
-
- - Added the --compress-level option to allow you to set how aggressive
- rsync's compression should be (this option implies --compress).
-
- - Enhanced the parsing of the SIZE value for --min-size and --max-size
- to allow easy entry of multiples of 1000 (instead of just multiples
- of 1024) and off-by-one values too (e.g. --max-size=8mb-1).
-
- - The options --human-readable (-h) and --si change the output of the
- --stats and the end-of-run summary to be easier to read.
-
- - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
- preservation of attributes on symlinks.
-
- - The --link-dest option now affects symlinks and devices (when
- possible).
+ - Added the 'c'-flag to the itemizing of non-regular files so that the
+ itemized output doesn't get hidden if there were no attribute changes,
+ and also so that the itemizing of a --copy-links run will distinguish
+ between copying an identical non-regular file and the creation of a
+ revised version with a new value (e.g. symlink referent, device
+ numbers).
