and exits. This should help users figure out that they can't use this
option to control a remote shell's password prompt.
+ - Make sure that directory permissions of a newly-created destination
+ directory are handled right when --perms is left off.
+
ENHANCEMENTS:
+ - A new incremental-recursion algorithm is now used when rsync is talking
+ to another 3.0.0 version. This starts the transfer going more quickly
+ (before all the files have been found), and requires much less memory.
+ See the --recursive option in the manpage for some restrictions.
+
+ - The default --delete algorithm is now --delete-during when talking to a
+ 3.x rsync. This is a faster scan than using --delete-before (which is
+ the default when talking to older rsync versions), and is compatible
+ with the new incremental recursion mode.
+
- Added the --delete-delay option, which is a more efficient way to
delete files at the end of the transfer without needing a separate
delete pass.
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, and
- moves the in-memory storage of the device+inode information from the
- receiving side (for protocols < 30) to the sending side (note that
- older rsync versions kept the device+inode information on both
- sides).
+ 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).
INTERNAL:
- Made the sending of some numbers more efficient for protocol 30.
+ - Make sure that a daemon process doesn't mind if the client was weird and
+ omitted the --server option.
+
- Improved the use of "const" on pointers.
