   BUG FIXES:
 
+    - 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 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.
+
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
     - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files

       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).
+
+  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.
