New in v1.1.13 (2007/08/12)
---------------------------

Properly pickle QuotedRPaths. Fixes regress operation on quoted filesystems.
Closes Savannah bug #20570 reported by Morgan Read. (Andrew Ferguson)

Warn if can't write extended attribute. (Andrew Ferguson)

Gracefully handle situations where rdiff-backup tries to set the sticky
bit on non-directory files on systems that don't support that action.
Thanks to Jim Nasby for the bug report. (Andrew Ferguson)

Prevent the extended filenames / UTF-8 test from raising an exception
on broken CIFS configurations which transform some characters to '?'.
Problem reported by Luca Cappe. (Andrew Ferguson)

Cygwin on FAT32 hangs when trying to open a file named "aux". Change
the escape DOS devices test to use "con" instead. (Andrew Ferguson)

Fix symlink behavior when filesystem is mounted via CIFS. Closes
Savannah bug #20342. (Andrew Ferguson)

Fix "too many open files" bug when handling large directories. Patch
from Anonymous in Savannah bug #20528.

New options: --tempdir and --remote-tempdir. The first one sets the
directory that rdiff-backup uses for temporary files on the local system.
The second adds the --tempdir option with the given path when invoking
rdiff-backup on remote systems. (Andrew Ferguson)

Don't run the extended attributes test if rdiff-backup is run with
the --no-eas option. Prevents hang in isolated cases. (Andrew Ferguson)

Don't throw an error when clearing extended attributes if they are not
supported on the file. (Andrew Ferguson)
