+version 1.13.20 - Paul Eggert, 2001-08-26
+
+* More security problems have been fixed.
+
+* New option --recursion (the default) that is the inverse of --no-recursion.
+
+* New options --anchored, --ignore-case, --wildcards,
+  --wildcards-match-slash, and their negations (e.g., --no-anchored).
+  Along with --recursion and --no-recursion, these control how exclude
+  patterns are interpreted.  The default interpretation of exclude
+  patterns is now --no-anchored --no-ignore-case --recursion
+  --wildcards --wildcards-match-slash.
