ChangeLog

2015-03-18
	* Add support for rsync's bandwidth limit feature.

2015-02-27
	* Replace the hostname validation method (ping) with regular expressions to improve reliability in case of firewalls that block ICMP traffic.

2012-07-24
	* Disable pathname expansion when operating on lines in exclude.conf.

2012-07-23
	* Have rsync exclude directories in exclude.conf instead of them being hard-coded.

2012-07-18
	* Corrected the default path to abs.conf in the README.
	* Simplified and consolidated two sections of code.

2012-07-17
	* Mark backups as incomplete if failed, and don't use these when generating hardlinks for future backups.
	* Empty lines in the config are now permitted. Updated the config comments to reflect that.
	* If it doesn't halt execution, it's a warning. Make sure warnings do no more harm than skipping the current backup.
	* Allow comments and whitespace anywhere in the config. Additionally, merge a two-step process for config validation checking and backup execution which also reduces code duplication.
	* safetyChecks() renamed doSafetyChecks(). Includes comment and whitespace fixes.

2012-07-05
	* Corrected problem interpreting inputs. Replaced tabs with spaces. Indicate where output will be saved to during execution.
	* Added more directory exceptions from the rsync backup list.
	* Implemented -v and -h options.

2011-06-08
	* Initial commit.
