ENHANCEMENTS:
- - Added the --log-file=FILE option that can be used to tell any rsync to
- output what it is doing to a log file. This works with a client rsync, a
- non-daemon server rsync (see the man page for instructions), and also
- allows the overriding of the rsyncd.conf setting when starting a daemon.
+ - Added the --log-file=FILE and --log-file-format=FORMAT options. These
+ can be used to tell any rsync to output what it is doing to a log file.
+ They work with a client rsync, a non-daemon server rsync (see the man
+ page for instructions), and also allows the overriding of rsyncd.conf
+ settings when starting a daemon.
+
+ - The --log-format option was renamed to be --out-format to avoid confusing
+ it with affecting the log-file output. (The old option remains as an
+ alias for the new to preserve backward compatibility.)
