+ - Added the --super option to make the receiver always attempt super-user
+ activities. This is useful for systems that allow things such as devices
+ to be created or ownership to be set without being UID 0, and is also
+ useful for someone who wants to ensure that errors will be output if the
+ receiving rsync isn't being run as root.
+
+ - Added the --sockopts option for those few who want to customize the TCP
+ options used to contact a daemon rsync.
+
+ - Added a way for the --temp-dir option to be combined with a partial-dir
+ setting that lets rsync avoid non-atomic updates (for those times when
+ --temp-dir is not being used because space is tight).
+
+ - A new support script, files-to-excludes, will transform a list of files
+ into a set of include/exclude directives that will copy those files.
+
+ - A new option, --executability (-E) can be used to preserve just the
+ execute bit on files, for those times when using the --perms option is
+ not desired.
+
+ - The daemon now logs each module-list request it receives.
+
+ - New log-format options: %M (modtime), %U (uid), %G (gid), and %B
+ (permission bits, e.g. "rwxr-xrwt").
+
+ - The --dry-run option no longer forces the enabling of --verbose.
+
+ - Various documentation improvements, including: a better synopsis, some
+ improved examples, a better discussion of the presence and absence of
+ --perms (including how it interacts with the new --executability and
+ --chmod options), an extended discussion of --temp-dir, an improved
+ discussion of --partial-dir, a better description of rsync's pattern
+ matching characters, and the documenting of what the various items in
+ the --stats output mean.
+
+ - Various new and updated diffs in the patches dir, including: acls.diff,
+ xattrs.diff, atimes.diff, detect-renamed.diff, and slp.diff.
+
+ INTERNAL:
+
+ - We now use sigaction() and sigprocmask() if possible, and fall back on
+ signal() if not. Using sigprocmask() ensures that rsync enables all the
+ signals that it needs, just in case it was started in a masked state.
+
+ - Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where
+ MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin).
+
+ - If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit
+ with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer.
+
+ - If a va_copy macro is defined, lib/snprintf.c will use it when defining
+ the VA_COPY macro.
+
+ - Reduced the amount of stack memory needed for each level of directory
+ recursion by nearly MAXPATHLEN bytes.
+
+ - The wildmatch function was extended to allow an array of strings to be
+ supplied as the string to match. This allows the exclude code to do less
+ string copying.
+
+ - Got rid of the safe_fname() function (and all the myriad calls) and
+ replaced it with a new function in the log.c code that filters all the
+ output going to the terminal.
+
+ - Unified the f_name() and the f_name_to() functions.
