> I have released rsync version 2.6.5pre2 -- the second (and hopefully
> final) pre-release for 2.6.5. The 2.6.5 release is primarily a bug-fix
> release to squash some annoying bugs that made it into 2.6.4, though a
> few minor enhancements did make it in as well.

> The changes since 2.5.6pre1 are:
> 
>     - Improved the keep-alive code (when a timeout is in effect) to
>       handle a long silence between the sender and the receiver that can
>       occur when the sender is receiving the checksum data for a large
>       file.
> 
>     - If a source filename ends with the name "..", treat it like "../"
>       had been specified (so that we don't copy files to the parent dir
>       of the destination).
> 
>     - If --delete is combined with a file-listing rsync command (i.e. no
>       transfer is happening), avoid outputting a warning that we
>       couldn't delete anything.
> 
>     - If --stats is specified with --delete-after, ensure that all the
>       "deleting" messages are output before the statistics.
> 
>     - Improved one "if" in the deletion code that was only checking
>       errno for ENOTEMPTY when it should have also been checking for
>       EEXIST.
