       about being unable to create the missing directory.
 
+    - Fixed some problems with --relative --no-implied-dirs when the
+      destination directory did not yet exist:  we can now create a symlink or
+      device when it is the first thing in the missing dir, and --fuzzy no
+      longer complains about being unable to open the missing dir.
+
+    - Fixed a bug where the --copy-links option would not affect implied
+      directories (see --relative) without --copy-unsafe-links.
+
     - Got rid of the need for --force to be used in some circumstances with
       --delete-after (making it consistent with --delete-before/-during).
