This starts the transfer going more quickly (before all the files have been found), and requires much less memory. AND: - Rsync now allows multiple remote-source args to be specified (...) This means that dirvish doesnt need anymore the exclude trick to backup multiple remote directories to one vault!?, for me this is the biggest dirvish limitation. The new rsync version is "3.0.0", I will not put in production any x.0.0 version ...
