escaped characters rather than '?'s. Any non-printable character is
output using 3 digits of octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and a backslash
is now output as "\\". Rsync also uses your locale setting, which
- should make it treat fewer high-bit characters as non-printable (when
- appropriate).
+ can make it treat fewer high-bit characters as non-printable.
- If rsync received an empty file list when pulling files, it would
output an "nothing to do" message and exit with a 0 (success) exit
status, even if the remote rsync returned an error (it did not do
this under the same conditions when pushing files). This was changed
- to make the pulling behavior the same as the pushing behavior -- we
+ to make the pulling behavior the same as the pushing behavior: we
now do the normal end-of-run outputting (depending on options) and
exit with the appropriate exit status.
- Fixed a compatibility problem when using --cvs-ignore (-C) and
sending files to an older rsync without using --delete.
+ - Fixed the ommission of some directories in the delete processing when
+ --relative (-R) was combined with a source path that had a trailing
+ slash.

ENHANCEMENTS:
- Added the --only-write-batch=FILE option that may be used (instead
back to using syslog. This is better than a (typically) totally
silent failure (since a daemon is not usually run with --no-detach).
+ - The man pages now consistently refer to an rsync daemon as a "daemon"
+ to distinguish it from a server in a non-daemon transfer.

INTERNAL:
- Rsync now calls setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "").
