+ - Rsync now supports popt's option aliases, which means that you can
+ use /etc/popt and/or ~/.popt to create your own option aliases.
+
+ - Added the --delete-during (--del) option which will delete files
+ from on the receiving side incrementally as each directory in the
+ transfer is being processed. This makes it more efficient than the
+ default, before-the-transfer behavior, which is now available as
+ --delete-before (this is the default --delete-WHEN option that will
+ be chosen if --delete or --delete-excluded is specified without a
+ --delete-WHEN choice). All the --del* options infer --delete, so an
+ rsync daemon that refuses "delete" will still refuse to allow any
+ file-deleting options.
+
+ - All the --delete-WHEN options are now more memory efficient:
+ Previously an entire duplicate set of file-list objects was created
+ on the receiving side for the entire destination hierarchy. The new
+ algorithm only creates one directory of objects at a time.
+
+ - Added the --copy-dest option, which works like --link-dest except
+ that it includes copies of identical files.
+
+ - Added support for specifying multiple --compare-dest, --copy-dest, or
+ --link-dest options, but only of a single type. (Promoted from the
+ patches dir and enhanced.)
+
+ - Added the --max-size option. (Promoted from the patches dir.)
+
+ - The daemon-mode options were separated from the normal rsync options
+ so that they can't be mixed together. This makes it impossible to
+ start a daemon that had improper default option values that could
+ cause problems (e.g. a hang or an abort) when a client connects.
+
+ - The --bwlimit option may now be used in combination with --daemon
+ to specify both a default value for the daemon side and a value
+ that cannot be exceeded by a user-specified --bwlimit option.
+
+ - Added the "port" parameter to the rsyncd.conf file. (Promoted from
+ the patches dir.) Also added "address". A command-line option
+ will take precedence over a config-file option, as expected.
+
+ - In _exit_cleanup(): when we are exiting with a partially-received
+ file, we now flush any data in the write-cache before closing the
+ partial file.
+
+ - The --inplace support was enhanced to work with --compare-dest,
+ --link-dest, and (the new) --copy-dest options. (Requires protocol
+ 29.)
+
+ - Added the --dirs (-d) option for an easier way to copy directories
+ without recursion.
+
+ - Added the --list-only option which is mainly a way for the client to
+ put the server into listing mode without needing to resort to any
+ internal option kluges (e.g. the age-old use of "-r --exclude="/*/*"
+ for a non-recursive listing). This option is used automatically
+ (behind the scenes) when a modern rsync speaks to a modern daemon,
+ but may also be specified manually if you want to force the use of
+ the --list-only option over a remote-shell connection.
