Patch from Jos Backus -- Fix breakage from dev_t to DEV64_T in batch
...
mode.
Also, drop -f and -F for batch mode: these should be reserved for
options that are more commonly used.
It also appends a newline to the argvs file and skips adding the
source directory to the command line.

Prevent the -g option from preserving groups that a non-root receiver
...
does not belong to, in these two ways:
1. If a group mapping doesn't exist for a group name, do not preserve
it for a non-root receiver. This is especially evident with the
sender is a daemon using chroot because then no mappings are
available.
2. Before setting the group on a file make sure that it is in the list
of groups returned by getgroups(). The same thing is done by chgrp
on systems that support bsd-style chown/chgrp, and this enforces
that it happens the same way on all systems. Overhead is very
little, especially since most systems don't allow more then 16
groups per user.

Changed exclude/include matching so that normally wildcards will stop at
...
slashes. The old behavior of crossing slashes can be achieved by using a
double-asterisk ('**') anywhere in a pattern. Note that this can change
some existing exclude patterns in a subtle way. Also note that if the
remote side is an older release the processing on the two sides might not
be exactly the same when there's no double-asterisk, which can affect which
files are excluded from deletion, but they're close enough that people will
probably not notice. I considered changing the protocol version and
checking the remote_version number to ensure the same processing on both
sides, but the exclude patterns are pre-processed before the remote version
number is known and it's just not worth going through extraordinary efforts.

Added --copy-unsafe-links option which is like --copy-links except it is

only for symlinks that point outside the source tree. Suggested by Charles
Hines <chuck_hines@VNET.IBM.COM > in PR#1376. Also apply the option to any
symbolic links in the source portion of a path when --relative is used,
as suggested by Francis Montagnac <Francis.Montagnac@sophia.inria.fr > on
the rsync mailing list in a message titled "New option: --copy-parent-links".
