NOTABLE CHANGE IN BEHAVIOR:
- The handling of implied directories when using --relative has changed
to send them as directories (e.g. no implied dir is ever sent as a
symlink). This avoids unexpected behavior and should not adversely
affect most people. If you're one of those rare people who relied
upon having an implied dir be duplicated as a symlink, either specify
--keep-dirlinks or --no-implied-dirs.
- The handling of implied directories when using --relative has changed to
send them as directories (e.g. no implied dir is ever sent as a symlink).
This avoids unexpected behavior and should not adversely affect most
people. If you're one of those rare people who relied upon having an
implied dir be duplicated as a symlink, you should specify the transfer
of the symlink and the transfer of the referent directory as separate
args. (See also --keep-dirlinks and --no-implied-dirs.)
- Requesting a remote file list without specifying -r (--recursive) now
sends the -d (--dirs) option to the remote rsync rather than sending -r
along with an extra exclude of /*/*. If the remote rsync does not
understand the -d option (i.e. it is 2.6.3 or older), you will need to
specify -r --exclude='/*/*' manually.
