     - Made hard-links work with symlinks and devices again.
 
-    - If a device changed permissions, rsync no longer recreates the device
-      instead of just updating the permissions.
+    - If a device-file/special-file changes permissions, rsync now updates the
+      permissions without recreating the file.
 
     - If the user specifies a remote-host for both the source and destination,
       we now output a syntax error rather than trying to open the destination

       permissions 0600 instead of 0000 -- this makes restarting possible when
       the transfer gets interrupted in the middle of sending a new file.
 
+    - Reject the combination of --inplace and --sparse since the sparse-output
+      algorithm doesn't work when overwriting existing data.
+
+    - Fixed the directory name in the error that is output when pop_dir()
+      fails.
+
+    - Really fixed the parsing of a "!" entry in .cvsignore files this time.
+
+    - Several diffs in the patches dir now use the proper --enable-FOO
+      configure option instead of --with-FOO to turn on the inclusion of

   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
     - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files

       replicate the "baz/dir" part of the source path (note: a trailing

+    - Added some new --no-FOO options that make it easier to override
+      unwanted implied or default options.  For example, "-a --no-o" (aka
