   BUG FIXES:
 
-    - Made hard-links work with symlinks and devices again.
-
-    - 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
-      hostspec as a filename.
-
-    - When --inplace creates a new destination file, rsync now creates it with
-      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.
+    - Fixed a bug in the exclude code where an anchored exclude without any
+      wildcards failed to match an absolute source arg, but only when
+      --relative is in effect.
 
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files
-      that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new
-      files).
-
-    - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
-      preservation of attributes on symlinks.
-
-    - 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
-      transfer. 
-
-    - When using the --relative option, you can now insert a dot dir in
-      the source path to indicate where the replication of the source dirs
-      should start.  For example, if you specify a source path of
-      rsync://host/module/foo/bar/./baz/dir with -R, rsync would only
-      replicate the "baz/dir" part of the source path (note: a trailing
-      dot dir is unaffected unless it also has a trailing slash).
-
-    - Added some new --no-FOO options that make it easier to override
-      unwanted implied or default options.  For example, "-a --no-o" (aka
-      "--archive --no-owner") can be used to turn off the preservation of
-      file ownership that is implied by -a.
-
-    - Allow the --temp-dir option to be specified when starting a daemon,
-      which sets the default temporary directory for incoming files.
-
-    - Some minor documentation improvements.
-
-  INTERNAL:
-
-    - Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where
-      MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin).
-
-    - If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit
-      with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer.
+    - The support/rsyncstats script has an improved line-parsing regex that is
+      easier to read and also allows it to parse syslog-generated lines.
