rsync changes since last release
ENHANCEMENTS:
* The --delete-after option now implies --delete. (Wayne Davison)
* The --suffix option can now be used with --backup-dir. (Michael
Zimmerman)
* Combining "::" syntax with the -rsh/-e option now uses the
specified remote-shell as a transport to talk to a (newly-spawned)
server-daemon. This allows someone to use daemon features, such
as modules, over a secure protocol, such as ssh. (JD Paul)
* The rsync:// syntax for daemon connections is now accepted in the
destination field.
* If the file name given to --include-from or --exclude-from is "-",
rsync will read from standard input. (J.W. Schultz)
BUG FIXES:
* Fix "forward name lookup failed" errors on AIX 4.3.3. (John
L. Allen, Martin Pool)
* Generate each file's rolling-checksum data as we send it, not
in a separate (memory-eating) pass before hand. This prevents
timeout errors on really large files. (Stefan Nehlsen)
* Fix compilation on Tru64. (Albert Chin, Zoong Pham)
* Better handling of some client-server errors. (Martin Pool)
* Fixed a crash that would occur when sending a list of files that
contains a duplicate name (if it sorts to the end of the file
list) and using --delete. (Wayne Davison)
INTERNAL:
* Many code cleanups and improved internal documentation. (Martin
Pool, Nelson Beebe)
* More test cases. (Martin Pool)
* Updated included popt to the latest vendor drop, version 1.6.4.
