IMHO, "No increment is older than ...." is normal behavior and should not cause a warning, especially since nonzero status codes are considered abnormal termination by most shells (even the Python docs <https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.exit> mention this), and can cause backup scripts to terminate.

Change log and man page indeed:

CHG: return codes have changed and are now more detailed, see man-page for 
details

CHG: start to introduce more specific return codes (1 for error, 2 for warning, 
4 for single file error, etc), which can be combined (e.g. 3 for error and 
warning), this will take time to introduce everywhere

Did you check the documentation? Tl;Dr: it is documented!
I am sorry. I only "man rdiff-backup", but I didn't see anything about the 
changed behavior.
what document should I read?
thanks a lot for help.
