- When `--chown`, `--usermap`, or `--groupmap` is used, rsync now implies
the appropriate `--owner` and/or `--group` option.
+ - Added the `--info=NONREG` setting to control if rsync should warn about
+ non-regular files in the transfer. This is enabled by default (keeping the
+ behavior the same as before), so specifying `--info=nonreg0` can be used to
+ turn the warnings off.
+
- More ASM optimizations from Shark64.
- Make rrsync handle the latest options.
