+
+ * gnulib.modules: New file. List of required gnulib
+ modules.
+ * bootstrap: Merge list of required modules from
+ paxutils with that from tar proper.
+ * src/tar.c: Various fixes in help and diagnostic messages.
+
+2005-02-05 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>
+
+ * src/common.h (EXTRACT_OVER_PIPE): New macro
+ * src/compare.c: Code clean up.
+ * src/extract.c (extract_archive): Do not check for
+ EXTRACT_OVER_PIPE, decode_options() does this.
+ * src/misc.c (exec_error,fork_error,dup2_error)
+ (pipe_error): Removed unneeded functions.
+ * src/system.c (sys_exec_command): Use xclose, xpipe,
+ xfork, xdup2 and exec_fatal.
+ * src/tar.c (options): Improved sorting. Document --backup=off.
+ (decode_options): Clear backup_option if necessary.

+
+ Initial implementation of --to-command option proposed
+ by Hansjoerg Lipp.
+
+ * bootstrap: Get setenv module from gnulib
+ * src/buffer.c: Do not use 8-bit chars in comments
+ * src/common.h (to_command_option)
+ (ignore_command_error_option): New globals
+ (sys_exec_command,sys_wait_command): New commands
+ * src/extract.c (extract_file): Handle to_command_option
+ Fix error recovery: decrease `size' by `written', not
+ by `count', otherwise tar misses the next header
+ Do not diagnose write errror if to_command_option
+ is set, since the command may have exited prematurely.
+ It would be better to check for sigpipe, though.
+ (prepare_to_extract): Handle to_command_option
+ * src/misc.c (exec_error, fork_error, dup_error)
+ (pipe_error): New functions
+ * src/system.c (sys_exec_command)
+ (sys_wait_command): New functions
+ * src/tar.c: Handle new options --to-command,
+ --ignore-command-error
+ * THANKS: Added Hansjoerg Lipp
+
+2005-02-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * src/list.c (from_header): New arg OCTAL_ONLY, normally false.
+ All uses changed. Fix typo that sometimes suppressed all "Archive
+ contains obsolescent base-64 headers" warnings, not just the first
+ one.
+ (tar_checksum): Accept only octal checksums, since they aren't
+ supposed to overflow into weird formats.
+
+ Adjust to gnulib changes.
+ * lib/.cvsignore: Add chdir-long.c, chdir-long.h, memrchr.c,
+ memrchr.h, openat.c, openat.h. Remove pathmax.h (added by
+ mistake, perhaps?), sysexit.h (my typo), xstrdup.c (gnulib removed
+ this file). Sort entries.

+ * src/create.c (start_private_header,write_header_name)
