+

+
+version 1.13.21 - Paul Eggert, 2001-08-28
+
+* Porting and copyright notice fixes.
+
+version 1.13.20 - Paul Eggert, 2001-08-27
+
+* Some bugs were fixed:
+ - security problems
+ - hard links to symbolic links
+
+* New option --recursion (the default) that is the inverse of --no-recursion.
+
+* New options --anchored, --ignore-case, --wildcards,
+ --wildcards-match-slash, and their negations (e.g., --no-anchored).
+ Along with --recursion and --no-recursion, these options control how
+ exclude patterns are interpreted.
+
+* The default interpretation of exclude patterns is now --no-anchored
+ --no-ignore-case --recursion --wildcards --wildcards-match-slash.
+ This is a quiet change to the semantics of --exclude. The previous
+ semantics were a failed attempt at backward compatibility but it
+ became clear that the semantics were puzzling and did not satisfy
+ everybody. Rather than continue to try to revive that dead horse we
+ thought it better to substitute cleaner semantics, with options so
+ that you can change the behavior more to your liking.
+
+* New message translations for Indonesian and Turkish.
+ The translation for Korean has been withdrawn due to encoding errors.
+ It will be reissued once those are fixed.
+
+version 1.13.19 - Paul Eggert, 2001-01-13
+
+* The -I option has been withdrawn, as it was buggy and confusing.
+ Eventually it is planned to be reintroduced, with the same meaning as -T.
+
+* With an option like -N DATE, if DATE starts with "/" or ".", it is taken
+ to be a file name; the last-modified time of that file is used as the date.
+
+version 1.13.18 - Paul Eggert, 2000-10-29
+
+* Some security problems have been fixed. `tar -x' now modifies only
+ files under the working directory, unless you also specify an unsafe
+ option like --absolute-names or --overwrite.
+
+* The short name of the --bzip option has been changed to -j,
+ and -I is now an alias for -T, for compatibility with Solaris tar.
+
+* The manual is now distributed under the GNU Free Documentation License.
+
+* The new environment variable TAR_OPTIONS holds default command-line options.
+
+* The --no-recursion option now affects extraction too.
+
+* The wording in some diagnostics has been changed slightly.
+
+* Snapshot files now record whether each file was accessed via NFS.
+ The new file format is upward- and downward-compatible with the old.
+
+* New language supported: da.
+
+* Compilation by traditional (K&R) C compilers is no longer supported.
+ If you still use such a compiler, please use GCC instead.
+
+* This version of tar works best with GNU gzip test version 1.3 or later.
+ Please see <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/gzip/>.
+
+* `tar --delete -f -' now works again.
