     - If waitpid() fails or the child rsync didn't exit cleanly, we now handle
       the exit status properly and generate a better error.
 
+    - Fixed some glitches in the double-verbose output when using --copy-dest,
+      --link-dest, or --compare-dest.
+
+    - Fixed the matching of the dont-compress items (e.g. *.gz) against files
+      that have a path component containing a slash.

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

     - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
       preservation of attributes on symlinks.
 
+    - The --link-dest option now affects symlinks and devices (when
+      possible).
+
+    - Improved the output of hard-linked and copied files when using
+      --link-dest, --copy-dest, or --compare-dest.
+
     - Added two config items to the rsyncd.conf parsing:  "pre-xfer exec"
       and "post-xfer exec".  These allow a command to be specified on a
       per-module basis that will be run before and/or after a daemon-mode

     - If --delete is combined with --dirs without --recursive, rsync will
       now delete in any directory whose content is being synchronized.
 
+    - If --backup is combined with --delete without --backup-dir (and
+      without --delete-excluded), we add a "protect" filter-rule to ensure
+      that files with the backup suffix are not deleted.
+
     - The file-count stats that are output by --progress were improved to
       better indicate what the numbers mean.  For instance, the output:
-      "(xfer#5, to-check=8383/9999)" indicates that this was transferred
-      file #5, and we still need to check 8383 files out of 9999 total.
+      "(xfer#5, to-check=8383/9999)" indicates that this was the fifth file
+      to be transferred, and we still need to check 8383 more files out of
+      a total of 9999.
 
     - Some minor documentation improvements.
