rsync-2.4.6-3

- Subject: rsync-2.4.6-3
I just packaged a new version:
1) support for --no-detach for using as a server with cygrunsrv
2) (very) small documentation on using as a service
The good news is that the --no-detach patch was made for a different
version, so I began examining rsync sources... I hope sooner or later to
correct the "read bug" completely (either that or 2.4.7 gets released
before, should have that problem automatically solved I think).
Files are at the usual location:

New comments in the rsync-2.4.6.README:
---------------------------------------------------------
Mini-HOWTO to use as a service:
1) be sure to have a valid /etc/rsyncd.conf ("man rsyncd.conf" for help)
2) to install service: ("cygrunsrv --help" for help)
cygrunsrv -I "rsyncd" -p /home/administrator/rsync-2.4.6/rsync -a
'--daemon --no-detach'
3) to remove service:
cygrunsrv -R "rsyncd"
Port Notes:
I applied Wayne's anti-hang patch to avoid some read error (daemon mode
still
produces "read error: Connection reset by peer" at the very end of
transfer though).
You can find the patch here:

I also applied no-detach patch to permit use as a service with cygrunsrv
(as in the exaple above).
