Overview

This is a minor release that exposes a few useful utility functions to librsync.h previously only used by rdiff. It also introduces proper exporting of only public symbols in the librsync.h header. The most important fix is for a memory leak when freeing signatures. Upgrading from v2.0.2 is highly recommended for people using librsync and experiencing memory leak problems, but otherwise not urgent.

Included Changes

• Bump minor version from 2.0.3 to 2.1.0 to reflect additions to librsync.h.

• Fix exporting of private symbols from librsync library. Add export of useful large file functions rs_file_open(), rs_file_close(), and rs_file_size() to librsync.h. Add export of rs_signature_log_stats() to log signature hashtable hit/miss stats. Improve rdiff error output. (dbaarda, https://github.com/librsync/librsync/issues/130)
