- - You may specify --max-delete=0 to a 3.0.0 client as long as the
- receiving side is at least version 3.0.0. This means that you
- can pull from an older rsync with this option, but pushing to an
- older rsync will generate an error. *Be sure to never specify a 0
- value to an older rsync client, or it will be silently ignored.*
+ - Added the --acls (-A) option to preserve Access Control Lists. This is
+ an improved version of the prior patch that was available. (If you need
+ to have backward compatibility with old, patched versions, the new
+ acls.diff patch that will add that.)
+
+ - Added the --xattrs (-X) option to preserver extended attributes. This is
+ an improved version of the prior patch that was available. (If you need
+ to have backward compatibility with old, patched versions, the new
+ xattrs.diff patch that will add that.)
+
+ - Added the --fake-super option that allows a non-super user to preserve
+ all attributes of a file by using a special extended-attribute idiom.
+ There is also an analogous "fake super" option for an rsync daemon.
+
+ - Added the --iconv option, which allows rsync to convert filenames from
+ one character set to another during the transfer. (Currently must be
+ manually enabled via configure's --enable-iconv option.)
