### ENHANCEMENTS:
- Added negotiated daemon-auth support that allows a stronger checksum digest
- to be used. Added SHA512, SHA256, and SHA1 digests to MD5 & MD4. These new
- digests are at the highest priority in the new daemon-auth negotiation list.

-- Added support for SHA1, SHA256, and SHA512 digests in file checksums. While
- this tends to be overkill, it is available if someone really needs it. These
- overly-long checksums are at the lowest priority in the normal checksum

-- Improved the xattr hash table to use a 64-bit key (which should ensure fewer

- The [`use chroot`](rsyncd.conf.5#use_chroot) daemon parameter now defaults to

- The checksum code now uses openssl's EVP methods, which gets rid of various
deprecation warnings and makes it easy to support more digest methods. On
newer systems, the MD4 digest is marked as legacy in the openssl code, which

- openssl to enable legacy algorithms (see below).
