+version 1.13.15 - Paul Eggert, 1999-12-03.
+
+* If a file's ctime changes when being archived, report an error.
+ Previously tar looked at mtime, which missed some errors.
+
+version 1.13.14 - Paul Eggert, 1999-11-07.
+
+* New translations ja, pt_BR.
+* New options --help and --version for rmt.
+* Ignore Solaris door files when creating an archive.
+
+version 1.13.13 - Paul Eggert, 1999-10-11.
+
+* Invalid headers in tar files now elicit errors, not just warnings.
+* `tar --version' output conforms to the latest GNU coding standards.
+* If you specify an invalid date, `tar' now substitutes (time_t) -1.
+* `configure --with-dmalloc' is no longer available.
+
+version 1.13.12 - Paul Eggert, 1999-09-24.
+
+* `tar' now supports hard links to symbolic links.
+
+* New options --no-same-owner, --no-same-permissions.
+
+* --total now also outputs a human-readable size, and a throughput value.
+
+* `tar' now uses two's-complement base-256 when outputting header
+ values that are out of the range of the standard unsigned base-8
+ format. This affects archive members with negative or huge time
+ stamps or uids, and archive members 8 GB or larger. The new tar
+ archives cannot be read by traditional tar, or by older versions of
+ GNU tar. Use the --old-archive option to revert to the old
+ behavior, which uses unportable representations for negative values,
+ and which rejects large files.
+
+* On 32-bit hosts, `tar' now assumes that an incoming time stamp T in
+ the range 2**31 <= T < 2**32 represents the negative time (T -
+ 2**32). This behavior is nonstandard and is not portable to 64-bit
+ time_t hosts, so `tar' issues a warning.
+
+* `tar' no longer gives up extracting immediately upon discovering
+ that an archive contains garbage at the end. It attempts to extract
+ as many files as possible from the good data before the garbage.
+
+* A read error now causes a nonzero exit status, not just a warning.
+
+* Some diagnostics have been reworded for consistency.
