- - Avoid setting the modify time on a directory that already has the right
- modify time set. This avoids tweaking the dir's ctime.
-
- - Improved the daemon-exclude handling to do a better job of applying the
- exclude rules to path entries. It also sends the user an error just as
- if the files were actually missing (instead of silently ignoring the
- user's args), and avoids sending the user the filter-action messages
- for these non-user-initiated rules.
-
- - Fixed some glitches with the dry-run code's missing-directory
- handling, including a problem when combined with --fuzzy.
-
- - Fixed some glitches with the skipped-directory handling.
-
- - Fixed the 'T'-flag itemizing of symlinks when --time isn't preserved.
-
- - Fixed a glitch in the itemizing of permissions with the -E option.
-
- - The --append option's restricting of transfers to those that add data no
- longer prevents the updating of non-content changes to otherwise up-to-
- date files (i.e. those with the same content but differing permissions,
- ownership, xattrs, etc.).
