/README.TXT: to synchronize vegbiendev, jupiter, and your local machine: avoid extraneous diffs when rsyncing: clarified the machines that the command should be run on
fix: /README.TXT: to backup files not in Time Machine: need to use 2 TB external hard drive instead of Time Machine drive because Time Machine drive does not have ~/Documents/BIEN/ in a location where it can be hardlinked against
/README.TXT: Datasource setup: For MS Access databases: added that one should use the settings in the associated .ini file where available
/README.TXT: Datasource setup: For MS Access databases: program link: added page subsections

/README.TXT: added trailing / on dirs to make clear that they're dirs
fix: /README.TXT: to back up vegbiendev: also back up /home/aaronmk/bien/ (instead of just symlinking to the local copy), since this can be done space-efficiently with hardlinks. this ensures that the vegbiendev backup will not be modified when the local copy of bien/ is.
/README.TXT: to backup files not in Time Machine: don't need to review diff because command is unidirectional
fix: /README.TXT: to back up the local machine's hard drive: "repeat until only minimal changes" should refer to the first sync command
/README.TXT: to back up vegbiendev: use inplace=1 to speed stopping and resuming transfer
fix: /README.TXT: to back up the local machine's hard drive: removed --extended-attributes (after initial sync) because rsync apparently has to visit every file for this

/README.TXT: to back up the local machine's hard drive: updated initial runtime to include additional transferred files (17 h)
fix: /README.TXT: to back up the local machine's hard drive: need to use --delete-before because the backup partition is near capacity
/README.TXT: to back up the local machine's hard drive: don't back up temp files such as /private/var/vm/*

bugfix: /README.TXT: to back up the local machine's hard drive: can't use ~ with --exclude
/README.TXT: to back up the local machine's hard drive: back up the non-Dropbox, non-Postgres files separately to minimize the Dropbox and Postgres downtime

/README.TXT: to synchronize a Mac's settings with my testing machine's: removed download section because we don't use this
bugfix: /README.TXT: Full database import: added warnings that you should not run backups/pg_snapshot while the import is running, nor until the previous import has been replaced
/README.TXT: Notes on system stability: added warning that when shutting down the VM, one should always first stop Postgres, to prevent the OS from SIGKILLing it
bugfix: Full database import: need nested shell to prevent errexit from closing the window
bugfix: /README.TXT: logs glob: don't unintentionally match . or ..
/README.TXT: Full database import: `make test by_col=1`: updated runtime (1 h)

/README.TXT: Mac settings backup: backup to jupiter: removed no longer applicable exclude of /VirtualBox VMs/Ubuntu/Ubuntu.vdi
fix: /README.TXT: Full database import: disk space: removed instructions to rerun the import if the disk space gets used up, because this is actually a bug and is not generally "fixed just by rerunning the import"
/Makefile, /README.TXT: PostgreSQL: Mac OS X: switched to using homebrew, which supports PostGIS
bugfix: /README.TXT: Installation: Check out svn: need to use trunk instead of root
*: use vegbiendev:/home/bien instead of /home/bien/svn
/README.TXT: Mac settings backup: to Dropbox: stop Dropbox beforehand to prevent Dropbox from trying to capture filesystem events while syncing
/README.TXT: Mac settings backup: exclude ~/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/9oo8rcyn.default/global-messages-db.sqlite because this file does not sync (issue #907)

/README.TXT: Full database import: for test import, turn off DB backup: added () after after_import to show that it's a function
/README.TXT: Full database import: refer to the shell instead of screen because it's also possible to use a nested shell for this
bugfix: /README.TXT: Full database import: to import just a subset of the datasources: need to set @inputs separately from declaring it, because declare does not support () on Mac

/README.TXT: changed "then rerun with l=1 ..." to "then review diff, and rerun with `l=1` prepended" to ensure that user reviews diff before syncing
/README.TXT: to synchronize a Mac's settings with my testing machine's: removed separate step to upload just the VirtualBox VMs, because that is now part of the main upload
fix: /README.TXT: to synchronize a Mac's settings with my testing machine's: need to sync VirtualBox VMs with inplace=1 because they are very large files
/README.TXT: to back up the version history: back up first on the local machine, because often only the svnsync command gets run, and that way it will get backed up immediately to Dropbox (and hourly to Time Machine), while vegbiendev only gets backed up daily to tape
bugfix: /README.TXT: to back up the version history: use absolute path for vegbiendev commands because the Ubuntu 14.04 version of rsync doesn't expand ~ properly
