-rsync 2.4.7 (sometime in 2001, maybe :)
+rsync changes since last release
 
-  ANNOUNCEMENTS
+  ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    * Martin Pool <mbp@samba.org> is now a co-maintainer.
+    * With --progress, when a transfer is complete show the time taken;
+      otherwise show expected time to complete. (Cameron Simpson)
 
-  NEW FEATURES
+    * Make "make install-strip" works properly, and "make install"
+      accepts a DESTDIR variable for help in building binary packages.
+      (Peter Breitenlohner, Greg Louis)
 
-    * Support for LSB-compliant packaging <http://www.linuxbase.org/>
-
-    * Shell wildcards are allowed in "auth users" lines.
-
-  ENHANCEMENTS
-
-    * Include/exclude cluestick: with -vv, print out whether files are
-      included or excluded and why.
-
-    * Many error messages have more friendly explanations and more
-      details.
-
-    * Manual page improvements plus scanty protocol documentation.
-
-    * When running as --daemon in the background and using a "log
-      file" rsyncd.conf directive, close the log file every time it is
-      open when going to sleep on the socket.  This allows the log
-      file to get cleaned out by another process.
-
-    * Change to using libpopt rather than getopt for processing
-      options.  This makes the code cleaner and the behaviour more
-      consistent across platforms.  popt is included and built if not
-      installed on the platform.
-
-    * More details in --version, including note about whether 64-bit
-      files, symlinks and hardlinks are supported.
-
-    * MD4 code may use less CPU cycles.
-
-    * Use mkstemp on systems where it is secure.  If we use mktemp,
-      explain that we do it in a secure way.
-
-    * --whole-file is the default when source and target are on the
-        local machine.
 
   BUG FIXES:
 
-    * Attempt to fix Large File Summit support on AIX.
-
-    * Attempt to fix error handling lockup bug.
-
-    * Give a non-0 exit code if *any* of the files we have been asked
-      to transfer fail to transfer 
+    * Fix situation where failure to fork (e.g. because out of process
+      slots) would cause rsync to kill all processes owned by the
+      current user.  Yes, really!  (Paul Haas, Martin Pool)
 
-    * Fix --cvs-exclude sigsegv bug.
+    * Fix test suite on Solaris.  (Jos Backus)
 
-    * Applied "simple nohang patch" from Wayne Davison.
+    * Fix minor memory leak in socket code.  (Dave Dykstra, Martin
+      Pool.)
 
-    * Update to work with autoconf2.50 and 2.13.
+    * Fix --whole-file problem that caused it to be the default even
+      for remote connections.  (Martin Pool, Frank Schulz)
