@@ -25,6 +25,7 @@ Changes / Improvements / Optimisations:
 - DietPi-Update | Added optional ability to automatically update DietPi, when updates are available. Please note, this is disabled by default.
 - DietPi-Sync | Removed the compression option, which has no effect on local sync, since files are not stored compressed, but only transferred compressed through remote sync protocols, which are currently not offered by DietPi-Sync.
 - General | Moved the remaining conf/* files located on DietPi-RAMdisk to /var/lib/dietpi or into DietPi-PREP, and removed /DietPi/dietpi/conf completely. These files were only used once or never, thus have no business inside the RAMdisk.
