- * Fixed a bug in the handling of -H (hard-links) that might
- cause the expanded PATH/NAME value of the current item to
- get overwritten (due to an expanded-name caching bug).
-
- * We now reset the "new data has been sent" flag at the start
- of each file we send. This makes sure that an interrupted
- transfer with the --partial option set doesn't keep a shorter
- temp file than the current basis file when no new data has been
- transfered over the wire for that file.
+ - If a file gets resent in a single transfer and the --backup option
+ is enabled, rsync no longer performs a duplicate backup (it used to
+ overwrite the original file in the backup area).
+
+ - Files specified in the daemon's "exclude" or "exclude from" config
+ items are now excluded from being uploaded (assuming that the module
+ allows uploading at all) in addition to the old download exclusion.
+
+ - Got rid of a potential hang in the receiver when near the end of a
+ phase.
+
+ - When using --backup without a --backup-dir, rsync no longer preserves
+ the modify time on directories. This avoids confusing NFS.
+
+ - When --copy-links (-L) is specified, we now output a separate error
+ for a symlink that has no referent instead of claiming that a file
+ "vanished".
+
+ - The --copy-links (-L) option no longer has the side-effect of telling
+ the receiving side to follow symlinks. See the --keep-dirlinks
+ option (mentioned below) for a way to specify that behavior.
+
+ - Error messages from the daemon server's option-parsing (such as
+ refused options) now get sent back to the client (the server used
+ to just exit because the socket wasn't in the right state to send
+ the message).
+
+ - Most errors that occur during a daemon transfer are now returned to
+ the user in addition to being logged (some messages are intended to
+ be daemon-only).
+
+ - Fixed a bug in the daemon authentication code when using one of the
+ batch-processing options.
