-NEWS for rsync 2.6.1 (UNRELEASED)
-Protocol: 27 (unchanged)
-Changes since 2.6.0:
-
- ENHANCEMENTS:
-
- * Lower memory use and more optimal transfer of data over
- the socket (see the INTERNAL section for details).
-
- * The RSYNC_PROXY environment variable can now contain a
- "USER:PASS@" prefix before the "HOST:PORT" information.
- (Bardur Arantsson)
-
- * The --progress output now mentions how far along in the
- transfer we are, including both a count of files transferred
- and a percentage of the total file-count that we're processed.
-
- * The configure script now accepts --with-rsyncd-conf=PATH
- to override the default value of the /etc/rsyncd.conf file.
-
- BUG FIXES:
-
- * When -x (--one-file-system) is combined with -L (--copy-links)
- or --copy-unsafe-links, no symlinked files are skipped, even
- if the referant file is on a different filesystem.
-
- * The --link-dest code now works properly for a non-root user
- when the UIDs of the source and destination differ and -o was
- specified, and when the group of the source can't be used on
- the destination and -g was specified. (Wayne Davison)
-
- * Fixed a bug in the handling of -H (hard-links) that might
- cause the expanded PATH/NAME value of the current item to
- get overwritten (due to an expanded-name caching bug).
- (Wayne Davison)

+Protocol: 28 (unchanged)
+Changes since 2.6.2:
+
+ OUTPUT CHANGES:
+
+ - For anyone who is parsing rsync's verbose output using a script,
+ please note that the 2-line footer now uses the term "sent" instead
+ of "wrote" and "received" instead of "read". If you are not parsing
+ the numeric values out of this footer, your script would probably be
+ better off using the empty line prior to the footer as the indicator
+ that the verbose output is over.
