[release] Redis 3.0.1 and 2.8.20 are out.

[Salvatore Sanfilippo]

Hello, small update for Redis 3.0.1 fixing Sentinel memory leaks (that
are triggered only under certain non very common conditions). For
2.8.20 there are definitely more news since the latest release was
shipped three months ago.

I would upgrade a 2.8.19 install to 2.8.20 (but then, why don't
upgrade to 3.0.1 which is better and 99.999% backward compatible?).

3.0.0 users should not upgrade if not for their Sentinel installations
since otherwise is pretty much the same thing. There is the Lua output
buffer bug but it is hard to trigger, if your Redis never crashes, you
are not going to need it likely.

For details & credits: the change log here says it all, for both the releases.
Many thanks to everybody contributed bug reports and fixes.

thank you for your great effort to make redis better.

also,i have a question, i am redis 2.8.19 user, i want to know will the new version sentinel (maybe v3 and so far) continue ship with 2.8.xx series, or only with redis 3.x series. i want to judge if i should upgrade to 3.x.
