+Protocol: 30 (changed)
+Changes since 2.6.9:
 
   BUG FIXES:
 
-    - Fixed a bug in the exclude code where an anchored exclude without any
-      wildcards fails to match an absolute source arg, but only when --relative
-      is in effect.
+    - Fixed the output of -ii when combined with one of the --*-dest options:
+      it now itemizes all the items, not just the changed ones.
 
-    - Improved the I/O code for the generator to fix a potential hang when the
-      receiver gets an EOF on the socket but the generator's select() call
-      never indicates that the socket is writable for it to be notified about
-      the EOF.  (This can happen when using stunnel).
+    - Made the output of all file types consistent when using a --*-dest
+      option.  Prior versions used to output too many creation events for
+      matching items.
+
+    - The code that waits for a child pid now handles being interrupted by
+      a signal.  This fixes a problem with the pre-xfer exec function not
+      being able to get the exit status from the script.
+
+    - A negated filter rule now sends the negation option when sending the
+      filter rules.
 
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    - In daemon mode, if rsync fails to bind to the requested port, the
-      error(s) returned by socket() and/or bind() are now logged.
+    - Added the --delete-delay option, which is a more efficient way to
+      delete files at the end of the transfer without needing a separate
+      delete pass.
 
-    - The support/rsyncstats script has an improved line-parsing regex that is
-      easier to read and also allows it to parse syslog-generated lines.
+    - 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.*
 
-    - A new script, support/file-attr-restore, can be used to restore the
-      attributes of a fileset (the permissions, ownership, and group info)
-      taken from the cached output of a "find ARG... -ls" command.
+  INTERNAL:
 
-  DEVELOPER RELATED:
+    - Added some isType() functions that make dealing with signed characters
+      easier without forcing variables via casts.
+
+    - 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.
 
-    - The acls.diff patch has been improved quite a bit, with more to come.
+    - 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.
+
+    - Improved the use of "const" on pointers.
+
+  DEVELOPER RELATED:
 
-    - A new patch was added: log-file.diff.  This contains an early version of
-      a future option, --log-file=FILE, that will allow any rsync to log its
-      actions to a file (something that only a daemon supports at present).
