+ - 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).
+
+ - Added the --8-bit-output (-8) option, which tells rsync to avoid escaping
+ high-bit characters that it thinks are unreadable in the current locale.
+
+ - The new option --human-readable (-h) changes the output of --progress,
+ --stats, and the end-of-run summary to be easier to read. If repeated,
+ the units become powers of 1024 instead of powers of 1000. (The old
+ meaning of -h, as a shorthand for --help, still works as long as you
+ just use it on its own, as in "rsync -h".)
+
+ - 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).
+
+ - Improved the output of hard-linked and copied files when using
+ --link-dest, --copy-dest, or --compare-dest.
+
+ - Added two config items to the rsyncd.conf parsing: "pre-xfer exec" and
+ "post-xfer exec". These allow a command to be specified on a per-module
+ basis that will be run before and/or after a daemon-mode transfer. (See
+ the manpage for a list of the environment variables that are set with
+ information about the transfer.)
+
+ - When using the --relative option, you can now insert a dot dir in
+ the source path to indicate where the replication of the source dirs
+ should start. For example, if you specify a source path of
+ rsync://host/module/foo/bar/./baz/dir with -R, rsync will now only
+ replicate the "baz/dir" part of the source path (note: a trailing
+ dot dir is unaffected unless it also has a trailing slash).
