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 (the option implies --compress).
+
+ - Enhanced the parsing of the SIZE value for --min-size and --max-size.
+
- If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
preservation of attributes on symlinks.
"--archive --no-owner") can be used to turn off the preservation of
file ownership that is implied by -a.
+ - Added the --chmod=MODE option that allows the destination permissions
+ to be changed from the source permissions. E.g. --chmod=g+w,o-rwx
+
- Allow the --temp-dir option to be specified when starting a daemon,
which sets the default temporary directory for incoming files.
- If --delete is combined with --dirs without --recursive, rsync will
now delete in any directory whose content is being synchronized.
+ - The file-count stats that are output by --progress were improved to
+ better indicate what the numbers mean. For instance, the output:
+ "(xfer#5, to-check=8383/9999)" indicates that this was transferred
+ file #5, and we still need to check 8383 files out of 9999 total.
+
- Some minor documentation improvements.
- Updated some diffs in the patches dir.
- 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.

- Several diffs in the patches dir now use the proper --enable-FOO
