*   versions 0.27 - 0.30 passed STDIN to the rsync command to support some  *
*   recent feature additions to rsync 2.5.6.  This caused some strange      *
*   behaviour including hangs.  That feature has been backed-out in 0.31    *
*                                                                           *

Although I am the original author and maintainer, many of the bug fixes and
improvements have come as either suggestions or patches from the perl
community.  The full list of credits can be found in the Changelog file.
There have been many helpful people making this a much better module than
I could ever write on my own.

Hopefully 0.30 will solve the occasional and mysterious hangs that have been
so difficult to reproduce.  Paul Egan helped me cleanup and fix the select
loop.  See the Changelog for details of all changes.

QUICK START GUIDE:

   Install rsync if you haven't already.

   Build/test/install File::Rsync

      perl Makefile.PL
      make
      make test
      make install
   
   Once installed you can use 'perldoc File::Rsync' to get the rest of the
   documentation.  Or if you'd prefer to examine the docs before installation
   try 'perldoc -F Rsync.pm'.

This module is an attempt to efficiently handle the possibly numerous arguments
to the rsync command, and it's error conditions and messages.
