   BUG FIXES:
 
-    - A crash bug was fixed when a daemon had its "path" set to "/", did
-      not have chroot enabled, and used some anchored excludes in the
-      rsyncd.conf file.
+    - Fixed a wildcard matching problem in the daemon when a module has
+      "use chroot" enabled.
 
-    - Fixed a case where the generator might try to tweak the write
-      permissions of a read-only directory in list-only mode.
+    - Fixed a crash bug in the hard-link code.
 
-    - If --compare-dest or --link-dest uses a locally-copied file as the
-      basis for an updated version, log this better when --verbose or -i
-      is in effect.
+    - Fixed the combination of --xattrs and --backup.
 
-    - Fixed the accidental disabling of --backup during the --delete-after
-      processing.
+    - The generator no longer allows a '.' dir to be excluded by a daemon-
+      exclude rule.
 
-    - Restored the ability to use the --address option in client mode (in
-      addition to its use in daemon mode).
+    - Fixed the conversion of spaces into dashes in the %M log escape.
 
-    - Make sure that some temporary progress information from the delete
-      processing does not get left on the screen when it is followed by a
-      newline.
+    - Fixed several places in the code that were not returning the right
+      errno when a function failed.
 
-    - When --existing skips a directory with extra verbosity, don't refer
-      to it as a "file".
+    - Fixed the backing up of a device or special file into a backup dir.
 
-  ENHANCEMENTS:
-
-    - Added the --only-write-batch=FILE option that may be used (instead
-      of --write-batch=FILE) to create a batch file without doing any
-      actual updating of the destination.
+    - Moved the setting of the socket options prior to the connect().
 
-    - Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped
-      characters rather than '?'s.  Any non-printable character is output
-      using octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and backslash is output as "\\".
+    - If rsync exits in the middle of a --progress output, it now outputs a
+      newline to prevent the progress line from being overwritten.
 
-    - Improved the auth-errors that are logged by the daemon to include
-      some information on why the authorization failed (wrong user,
-      password mismatch, etc.).  (The client-visible message is unchanged.)
+    - Fixed a problem with how a destination path with a trailing slash was
+      compared against the daemon excludes.
 
-    - Improved the client's handling of an "@ERROR" from a daemon so that
-      it does not complain about an unexpectedly closed socket (since we
-      really did expect the socket to close).
+    - If a file's length is so huge that we overflow a checksum buffer count
+      (i.e. several hundred TB), warn the user and avoid sending an invalid
+      checksum struct over the wire.
 
-    - If the daemon can't open the log-file specified in rsyncd.conf, fall
-      back to using syslog.  This is better than a (typically) totally
-      silent failure (since a daemon is not usually run with --no-detach).
+    - If an source arg is excluded, --relative no longer adds the excluded
+      arg's implied dirs to the transfer.
 
-  INTERNAL:
+    - Use the overflow_exit() function for overflows, not out_of_memory().
 
-    - Rsync now calls setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "").
+  ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-  BUILD CHANGES:
+    - The rsyncd.conf manpage now consistently refers to the parameters in
+      the daemon config file as "parameters".
 
-    - Fixed a bug in the SUPPORT{,_HARD}_LINKS defines which prevented
-      rsync from being built without symlink or hard-link support.
+    - The description of the --inplace option was improved.
 
-    - You can use --disable-locale to turn off any use of setlocale().
+  DEVELOPER RELATED:
 
-    - Configure now disables the use of mkstemp() under HP-UX (since they
-      refuse to fix its broken handling of large files).
+    - Fixed a testcase failure if the tests are run as root and made some
+      compatibility improvements.
 
-    - Configure now explicitly checks for the lseek64() function so that
-      the code can use HAVE_LSEEK64 instead of inferring lseek64()'s
-      presence based on the presence of the off64_t type.
+    - Ensure that the early patches don't cause any generated-file hunks to
+      bleed-over into patches that follow.
