places (which allows for easier creation of adjunct RPMs).

mentions the right path when dir == NULL.

- Renamed push_dir() to change_dir() and revised it a little so that it
  can chdir() to a relative path without an intervening chdir() back to
  the staring path.
- Renamed push_pathname() to change_pathname() and revised it to take
  different args and to only call path_is_daemon_excluded() on a new
  path (not a revisit of a file's already-checked path).
- Fixed change_pathname() to set the right pathname value when a chdir()
  call fails.
- Set orig_dir once outside of the change_pathname() function.
- Got rid of pop_dir().

the server side.

This fixed a glitch in the daemon-exclusion code that allowed
an exclude rule such as ".*" or "*/" to affect a '.' dir.

to work in incremental-recursion mode.

when owner/group info isn't being preserved.  This helps to ensure
that the lower 8 bits of the xflags aren't 0, and is what older
rsync versions did.

in the sender (was working in incremental mode).

is old enough that it is no longer in the flist data.

in the generator (for protocol 30, at least).

- If the sender cannot convert a name, the discarding of the entry now
  occurs soon enough to avoid affecting the sender's list (which was
  causing the file-list on the receiving side to be out of sync).
- If the receiver cannot convert a name, its transformation of the name
  into an empty name (which indicates that the entry should be skipped)
  is no longer thwarted by the clean_fname() call (which was changing
  the name into a ".").

- Check early if the version tag already exists, so it aborts right
  away if the release script can't do its work.
- Update the files in the "patches" dir while merging the master branch
  into the patch branches (done before creating the release patches for
  the rsync-patches tar file).
- Allow the user to ask to visit each patch when updating them.
- Pause after initial patch updating so that any extra patch changes
  can be done before the creating of the tar files.
- Ask for the GPG signing passphrase once for all signing commands.

- Added a --shell option which starts a sub-shell on each patch branch.
- Don't allow the user to exit a sub-shell if the branch is not clean.
- If the sub-shell exited with a non-zero exit status, prompt to see if
  the user wanted to abort rather than assuming that.
- Wait to start the new patch-file output until after the shell runs.
- Always return to the starting branch on exit.

- Moved setting of list_only and xfer_dirs from main.c to options.c.
- Fixed the ability of the user to force --no-dirs.
- Added the --old-dirs/--old-d option to make it easier to interact
  in list-only mode with an older rsync.
- Suggest the use of --old-d instead of "-r --exclude='/*/*'".
