Hello,

as the title suggests, this should be the final 2.2 minor release.

This would be a call to all packagers (and users) to upgrade to this 
release, before we go direction 3.0 release (which will take quite some 
time).

KR, Eric

     Main changes

Documentation refresh for Windows, few fixes especially when using API 
201, clarify the error message when using the client/server mode, and, 
last but not least, the introduction of a fully automated weekly release 
<https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/releases/tag/weekly> for 
easier testing by users.

Detailed release notes are at the top of the changelog 
</rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.2.6/CHANGELOG.adoc>. As always, 
consider especially the changes marked with |CHG| as they might impact 
your workflow.


     Install

The installation, described in details in the read me 
</rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.2.6/README.adoc>, has the quick version:

   * Linux, trust on your distro to provide the latest version of
     rdiff-backup "soon-ish" (or copr/PPA)
   * Windows, download the asset |rdiff-backup-2.2.6.win32/64exe.zip|
     from the tagged release
     <https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/releases/tag/v2.2.6>
     and unpack it somewhere in your |PATH| (or trust Chocolatey
     <https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/rdiff-backup>).
   * Any supported Platform, and a few unsupported like BSD and MacOSX,
     use |pip install rdiff-backup| (or download and install the proper
     asset from the tagged release
     <https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/releases/tag/v2.2.6>).
   * in all cases, you might want to have a look at the migration guide
     </rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.2.6/docs/migration.adoc>.
