I've just released rsync 3.0.0pre2, the second pre-release version for
the upcoming 3.0.0 release.

Please test this out and email the rsync mailing list with any
questions, comments, bug reports, etc.  Thanks!

You can download the tar file and its signature from here:

This version has the following fixes since pre1 was released:

 - Fixed the listing of directories with --list-only, --relative, and
   --no-recursive.  This fix involved getting rid of an old "FIXME" in
   the code where a non-recursive listing would list directories on
   the server using -r and an extra exclude to drop the content of
   sub-directories (which could fail to work if the user had their
   own excludes).  The code now sends the --dirs option for a
   non-recursive listing.

 - Fixed a delete glitch with --relative, --no-recursive, --dirs, and
   subdirectories.

 - Improve the internal flagging of implied directories and those that
   were sent with and without content.

 - Fixed a problem with the remote charset arg when using the new
   --iconv=LOCAL_CHARSET,REMOTE_CHARSET option.

 - Fixed a build glitch for some strange iconv setups.

 - Fixed a problem in the AIX ACL code.

 - Fixed a build glitch for some pre-processors that didn't like an
   #if conditional inside a macro.

 - Improved patches/dynamic-hash.diff (which is one solution that
   should help to speed up the transfer of really large files) so that
   it doesn't also slow down the transfer of normal-sized files.
