+ - Changed the --append option to not checksum the existing data in the
+ destination file, which speeds up file appending.
+
+ - Added the --append-verify option, which works like the older --append
+ option (verifying the existing data in the destination file). For
+ compatibility with older rsync versions, any use of --append that is
+ talking protocol 29 or older will revert to the --append-verify method.
+
+ - Documented and extended the support for the RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG variable
+ that can be used to enhance the client side of a daemon connection.
+
+ - Improved the dashes and double-quotes in the nroff manpage output.
+
+ - We now support a lot more --no-OPTION override options.
+
+ INTERNAL:
+
+ - The file-list sorting algorithm now uses a sort that keeps any same-
+ named items in the same order as they were specified. This allows
+ rsync to always ensure that the first of the duplicates is the one
+ that will be included in the copy. The new sort was also faster
+ than the glibc version of qsort() and mergesort() in my testing.
+
+ - Rsync now supports the transfer of 64-bit timestamps (time_t values).
+
+ - Fixed a build problem with older (2.x) versions of gcc.
+
+ - Added some isType() functions that make dealing with signed characters
+ easier without forcing variables via casts.
+
+ - Changed strcat/strcpy/sprintf function calls to use safer versions.
+
+ - Upgraded the included popt version to 1.10.2 and improved its use of
+ string-handling functions.
+
+ - Added missing prototypes for compatibility functions from the lib dir.
+
+ - Configure determines if iconv() has a const arg, allowing us to avoid a
+ compiler warning.
+
+ - Made the sending of some numbers more efficient for protocol 30.
+
+ - Make sure that a daemon process doesn't mind if the client was weird and
+ omitted the --server option.
+
+ - Improved the use of "const" on pointers.
+
+ - Improved J.W.'s pool_alloc routines to add a way of freeing older
+ sections of a pool's memory.
+
+ - The getaddrinfo.c compatibility code in the "lib" dir was replaced with
+ some new code (derived from samba, derived from PostgreSQL) that has a
+ better license than the old code.
