+
+ * Prerelease 1.11q.
+
+ * configure.in: Use gethostent instead of gethostbyname while

+
+ * acinclude.m4: New fp_WITH_INCLUDED_MALLOC macro.

+
+ * configure.in: Do not check for gettimeofday anymore.
+
+ * configure.in: Do not anymore blindly add -lnsl if gethostname
+ is found, nor -lsocket if setsockopt is found. Instead, for
+ resolving setsockopt, try none, -lsocket, and -lsocket -lnsl,
+ in that order. For resoving gethostbyname, try none, than -lnsl.
+ Reported by Ariel Faigon, Heiko Schlichting, Jean-Philippe

+1995-12-19 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+

+1995-11-06 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * acconfig.h: Document HAVE_STPCPY for the time being. I do not

+ from AC_CHECK_FUNCS(stpcpy) in aclocal.m4, through autoheader.

+ Stefan Boleyn, Jason R. Mastaler, Joshua R. Poulson, Jurgen Botz,
+ Serge Granik, Simon Wright, Ulrich Drepper and Vince Del Vecchio.

+
+ * Makefile.in: Substitute CC, INSTALL, INSTALL_PROGRAM,
+ INSTALL_DATA, RSH, CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS, prefix, exec_prefix,
+ binprefix, bindir and libexecdir.
+ (MDEFINES): New, using the previous substitutions.
+ (all, install, uninstall): Use it.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+1994-08-13 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>.
+
+1994-08-11 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: For <utime.h>, also ensure struct utimbuf is
+ defined by the header file before defining HAVE_UTIME_H. Some
+ systems will not define the structure without _POSIX_SOURCE.
+ * acconfig.h: Document HAVE_UTIME_H.
+ Reported by James W. McKelvey and Robert E. Brown.
+
+ * configure.in: Instead of replacing strstr, check for it, so
+ HAVE_STRSTR gets defined, then replace it explicitely if required.
+
+1994-08-09 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Updated for Autoconf 2.0.
+
+1994-08-08 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Replace memset, mkdir (and rmdir), rename, strstr,
+ ftruncate, when not found.
+ Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi (for memset and strstr).
+ Reported by Bruno Haible (for mkdir and rename).
+
+1994-08-05 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Remove padding test.
+ * acconfig.h: Remove PADDING_IN_TAR_HEADER.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+ * configure.in: While defining DEFAULT_ARCHIVE, check for a block
+ device, instead of mere existence. But is `test -b' portable?
+ Test for /dev/fd0, instead of for /dev/fd. Put rct tests last.
+ Reported by Andreas Schwab.
+
+ * configure.in: Define uid_t and gid_t if necessary.
+ Reported by Jonathan I. Kamens.
+
+ * Makefile.in (distclean-local): Delete config.cache.

+ * configure.in: Check for ST_BLKSIZE and ST_BLOCKS.
+
+1994-08-02 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

+ Reported by Danny R. Johnston.
+
+1994-07-29 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * aclocal.m4: Adapt AC_PROTOTYPES to caching.
+
+ * Using configure as generated by a more recent Autoconf solves a
+ problem of rename being rejected on HP-UX in ANSI mode, because of
+ a conflicting prototype from <stdio.h>. In this context, Autoconf
+ now uses ctype.c instead for defining __stub macros.
+ Reported by Alan Modra, Burkhard Plache, Edward Welbourne,
+ Henrik Bakman, Jeffrey Goldberg, Jim Farrell, Kimmy Posey,
+ Michael Maass, Mike Nolan, Richard Lloyd, Robert McGraw,
+ Robert W. Kim, Stefan Skoglund, Tarang Kumar Patel, Tilman
+ Schmidt, Tim Ramsey, Van Snyder and W. Phillip Moore.
+
+1994-07-26 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Check for <fcntl.h>. Do not define BSD42, do
+ not look anymore if /vmunix, /sdmach or /../../mach exist.
+ * acconfig.h: Remove BSD42.
+
+1994-07-24 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Add gmalloc.o to LIBOBJS, instead of AC_SUBST'ing
+ MALLOC. Check for valloc only if gmalloc.o is not being selected.
+ valloc was possibly defined both in "port.h" and GNU malloc.
+ * acconfig.h: Add a description for HAVE_VALLOC.
+ J.T. Conklin, Nelson H.F. Beebe and Tilman Schmidt.
+
+1994-07-22 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Use provided fnmatch only as a replacement.

+1994-07-20 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in (BACKLOG): New goal, for summarizing the
+ maintainance backlog. Distribute file BACKLOG.
+
+1994-07-08 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * regex.c, regex.h: Use newer versions. This solves a few

+ Reported by Chris Hopps and John David Anglin.
+
+1994-07-06 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Check for <utime.h>.
+
+1994-07-05 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Substitute DEFAULT_ARCHIVE and DEFAULT_BLOCKING
+ from the environment. Check for /dev/tape first while trying to
+ decide the default archive, because it is often symlinked right.
+ * acconfig.h: Explain DEFAULT_ARCHIVE and DEFAULT_BLOCKING.
+
+ * configure.in: Use AC_SET_MAKE.
+ * Makefile.in: Use @SET_MAKE@.
+ Reported by Jim Meyering.
+
+ * configure.in: Integrate the check, previously in testpad.c,
+ about a needed padding field in the tar header struct.
+ * acconfig.h: Explain PADDING_IN_TAR_HEADER.
+
+1994-07-02 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Check for -linet, this library is required on
+ a few systems for gettimeofday() or getservbyname(). Also, on ISC
+ 4.0, this avoids a broken version of rename().
+ Reported by Dean Gaudet, Goeran Uddeborg, Mike Rogers and
+ Peder Chr. Norgaard.
+
+ * configure.in: Ensure -lsocket is tested after -lnsl. This is
+ required in particular for SINIX-Z, an SVR4.0 system.
+ Reported by Manfred Weichel and Mark Frost.
+
+ * configure.in: All tests reordered for clarity.
+
+1994-07-01 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: Use AC_TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME, test for <sys/time.h>.
+ This should solve the problem of multiple inclusions of <time.h>.
+ Also, also check for <sys/timeb.h>, for getdate.y tests this.
+ Reported by Jim Meyering, John Rouillard, Karl Berry and Rick
+ Emerson.
+
+1994-06-30 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * configure.in: AC_CONST was already added since 1.11.2, but no
+ ChangeLog entry for it, so here is one, with list of reporters.
+ * AIX 3.2 RS/6000 IBM's compiler was unable to compile regex.c,
+ this might be solved already through improved Autoconf tests.
+
+ Reported by Alexey Vovenko, Ben A. Mesander, Bryant
+ Fujimoto, Christian. T. Dum, Christopher Vickery, Dan Bloch,

+ R. Scott Butler, Rob Parry, Ron Guilmette, Scott Grosch,
+ Sherwood and Stephen Saroff.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Completely replaced, lurking at the previous one.
+ At the same time, solve a few minor problems reported by users.
+ The most frequently reported ones pertained to a trailing \ in a
+ comment, and rmt installing in /etc.
+ Reported by Dean Gaudet, Gerben Wierda, James W. McKelvey,
+ John L. Chmielewski, Karl Berry, Mike Rogers, Ralf Suckow and
+ Richard Lloyd.
+
+ * configure.in: Also process lib/Makefile.in and src/Makefile.in.
+ Substitute CFLAGS, LDFLAGS and YFLAGS from the environment.
+ Use AC_CHECKING instead of using echo explicitely.
+ Use AC_HEADER_CHECK(unistd.h) instead of obsolete AC_UNISTD_H.
+
+ * configure.in: Generate a configuration header file. This not
+ only puts less clutter in make output, but also goes around some
+ compilers' limits about the number of allowed -D options.
+ Reported by Nelson H.F. Beebe.
+
+ * acconfig.h: New file.
+
+ * Split distribution into a few subdirectories, for easing
+ maintainance. So far: src, lib, scripts, msdos which are to be
+ distributed; then rmail, texinfo, ARCH and misc to be kept here.
+ * scripts/ChangeLog: Initialized by moving entries related to
+ scripts out of this ChangeLog.
+
+ * Taking over maintenance duties.

+1993-11-24 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * dump-remind: Send mail notification to the original recipients
+ that the dump has been continued when that is the case.
+
+1993-03-31 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (LOGFILE): Put logfile in `log' subdirectory.
+
+1993-03-28 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * dump-remind (volno): Don't increment by one.
+
+1993-03-25 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (TAR_PART1): Use `--block-size', not just
+ `--block', which is now ambiguous.
+
+1993-03-24 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * backup-specs (TAR): New variable.
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (TAR_PART1): Get path of GNU tar from `TAR'
+ variable, don't hardcode it.
+
+1993-03-20 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * backup-specs (SLEEP_MESSAGE): put backslashes in front of nested
+ double quotes.
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (BACKUP_DIRS): Don't put in quotes.
+ (LOGFILE): Use sed to construct name, not awk.
+
+ * dump-remind (recipients): Replaced inefficient pipeline with a
+ single, simple sed script.
+ (volno): Deal with the possibility that VOLNO_FILE may not be
+ created yet.
+
+1993-03-19 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * backup-specs (VOLNO_FILE): Removed abusive comment by Noah.
+
+1993-03-18 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.in (AUX): Include `dump-remind' in distribution.
+
+ * backup-specs (SLEEP_MESSAGE): New variable.
+ level-0, level-1: Use it instead of external `dont_touch' file.
+
+ * level-0, level-1: Put most of the script in () and pipe
+ everything from the subshell through tee -a $LOGFILE. Since you
+ really want most of the output to go to the logfile anyway, and
+ since all those pipelines were preventing one from getting the
+ exit status of most commands, this seems like the right idea.
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (LOGFILE): Use YYYY-MM-DD (all numeric) format
+ for log file name, since that makes the file names sortable in a
+ coherent way. Suffix should always be `level-n' where n is the
+ dump level. level-0 script was just using `-full' instead.
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (DUMP_LEVEL): New variable. Set to `0' or `1'
+ in each script as appropriate.
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (HOST): Renamed to `localhost' for clarity.
+ (host): renamed to `remotehost' for clarity.
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (startdate): New variable. Use it in Subject
+ line of mailed report.
+
+ * level-0, level-1: Fixed all instances where sed is called with a
+ script on the command line to use `-e' option.
+
+ * level-0, level-1: Don't try to call logfile.sed to filter
+ LOGFILE. It's not distributed with tar and was never really used
+ anyway.
+
+ * level-0, level-1: Put quotes around most variable names (barring
+ those that are known to intentionally contain text that should be
+ expanded into multiple words, like `TAR_PART1').
+
+ * level-0, level-1: Got rid of annoying trailing backslashes in awk
+ scripts. They were gratuitous. Made them a little more readable
+ by adding some whitespace.
+
+1992-10-21 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0, level-1: put curly braces around variables for clarity.
+
+ * backup-specs (DUMP_REMIND_SCRIPT): define it (but commented out
+ so that distributed dump scripts won't use it by default).
+ level-0, level-1 (TAR_PART1): use --info-script if
+ DUMP_REMIND_SCRIPT is defined.
+ dump-remind: new file (intended as an example).
+
+1992-10-15 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0, level-1: remove $LOGFILE.tmp files before exiting.
+
+1992-09-24 Michael I Bushnell <mib@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (TAR_PART1): remove --atime-preserve
+ because of a total screw.
+
+1992-09-10 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (TAR_PART1): put --atime-preserve inside quotes.
+
+1992-09-09 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0, level-1 (TAR_PART1): Use --atime-preserve.
+
+1992-07-10 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0, level-1: Avoid silly Sun awk lossage.
+
+1992-04-30 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-1: Added `$' before VOLNO_FILE in definition of TAR_PART1.
+ Added line to remove $VOLNO_FILE from any previous dump before
+ starting.
+
+ * level-0, level-1: Change long options to use `--' instead of `+'
+ (support for `+' will go away soon)
+
+1991-10-17 Michael I Bushnell <mib@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0: Repair damage from previous mod: stdin to rsh must
+ be the terminal or tar's questions lose.
+
+1991-08-31 Noah Friedman <friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * level-0: Fixed several syntax errors associated with
+ stdout/stderr redirection.
+ Made sure remote host executes commands from sh where redirection
+ is necessary, since root's shell might be csh in some places and
+ the redirect syntax differs.
+
+1991-07-01 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Fix a misplaced quote in level-0 and change some >& into
+ 2>&1.

+ set_main_command_option by set_subcommand_option.
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Remove badperror label, call WARN

+
+ * buffer.c, tar.c, update.c, common.h: Replace COMMAND_ prefixed
+ macros by _COMMAND suffixed, COMMAND_NONE by UNKNOWN_COMMAND,
+ and delete TOO_MANY_COMMAND. Turn these into an enum and declare
+ main_command_option of this enum type, to replace command_mode,
+ which was an int, everywhere.
+ * tar.c (decode_options): Initialise main_command_option.
+ (set_main_command_option): New function to replace
+ SET_COMMAND_MODE. Diagnostic ambiguous command as soon as seen.
+ However, be forgiving if command has merely been repeated.
+
+ * buffer.c, tar.c, common.h: Have info_script_option be at the
+ same time a flag and the option value, no need for a separate
+ info_script variable. Rename rsh_command to rsh_command_option,

+ volume_label_option.
+
+ * incremen.c, tar.c, common.h: Rename gnu_dumpfile to

+ * create.c (create_archive): No need to check both
+ incremental_option and listed_incremental_option, as the later
+ implies the former already.
+
+ * create.c, tar.c, common.h: Rename preset_owner to owner_option,
+ preset_group to group_option and preset_mode to mode_option.
+
+ * create.c, incremen.c, list.c, tar.c, commun.h: Have
+ after_date_option be a Boolean instead of a three-valued flag.
+ Rename threshold_time to newer_mdate_option, which may be looked
+ at without checking after_date_option first, as threshold_time
+ before. Make newer_cdate_option an alias for newer_mdate_option.
+
+1997-04-08 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

+ pointers out of the tarlong structures.
+ Reported by Andrew A. Ivanov and Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+ * buffer.c (child_open_for_compress): Copy all records coming out
+ of the compressor, not only the last one.
+ Reported by Alois Steindl, Mark Bynum, Martin Mares, Nelson
+ H. F. Beebe, Scott J. Kramer and Torkel Hasle.
+
+1997-03-29 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Ignore unreadable directories when
+ --ignore-failed-read.
+ Reported by Ralph Schleicher.
+
+ * create.c (deal_with_sparse): Chain the last partial zero block
+ with the preceding data, do not try sparing it. This correction
+ is approximative, as the whole thing should be rethought.
+ Reported by Andreas Degert.
+
+1997-03-24 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * All: Rename head to current_header, hstat to current_stat, and
+ header_format to current_format.
+ * update.c (update_archive): Rename nstat to stat_data.
+ * create.c: Do not extern hstat, as common.h does it.
+ (deal_with_sparse): Get rid of amidst_data, since numbytes is
+ already usable as a flag for the same thing.
+
+1997-03-21 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * names.c (name_gather): Do not declare static variables which

+1997-03-20 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * compare.c: Always call report_difference when there is a
+ problem, so the exit status will be set in all cases. Build the

+ without reporting a message. Move out the word `differs'
+ in all callers, do not insert into an English message.

+ Assume processors returns nonzero for success and zero for
+ failure, instead of 0 for success and -1 for error.
+ (process_rawdata, process_dumpdir): Adjusted.

+ * compare.c: Remove different as a global variable, it is useless.
+ (diff_sparse_files): Make different a local variable, reinitialise

+ files were always and falsely reported as erroneous.
+ Reported by James E. Carpenter and Tim Towers.

+ completely without checking the contained files.
+ Reported by David Johnson, John David Anglin and Wolfram Wagner.

+
+ * buffer.c (new_volume): Return nonzero/zero for success/failure,

+
+ * buffer.c: Have real_s_name able to hold PATH_MAX characters,

+ * (flush_read): Avoid altering save_name pointer value, use

+ setlocale to void independently of ENABLE_NLS.
+ Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
+
+1995-06-10 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.c (long_options): Use no_argument and require_argument,
+ instead of constants. Have long option names translated to short
+ options whenever possible, rather than setting flags directly:
+ easing option management is worth a few extra nanoseconds.
+
+ * tar.c (long_options): Add --gunzip as meaning -z.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+1995-06-07 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Use subdir and distdir.
+
+ * system.h [NLS]: Simplify by merely including <libintl.h>.
+ Also, define setlocale to empty only if the setlocale function is
+ not known, instead of when <locale.h> is missing.
+ * Makefile.in (INCLUDES): Use ../intl in compilations,
+ taking care of the fact libintl.h might have been symlinked there.
+
+1995-06-05 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.c, tar.h: Rename TAR_EXTERN to GLOBAL.
+
+ * tar.h: Delete COMMAND_VERSION.
+ * tar.c: Replace OPTION_HELP and OPTION_VERSION commands by
+ show_help and show_version variables, so `--version --create' will
+ not diagnose `Too many commands'. Adjust things so this works.
+ Reported by Marty Leisner.
+
+1995-06-04 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in (check): New goal.
+ * checktar.sh: New script.
+ * genfile.c: New file.
+ * Makefile.in (all): Prepare genfile.
+ * Makefile.in: Distribute checktar.sh and genfile.c.
+
+1995-06-03 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.h: Adjust so extracted doc/header.texi is neater.
+
+1995-05-30 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.c (name_match): Use %s for printing directory, not %d.
+ Reported by Marty Leisner.
+
+ * tar.c (name_gather, addname): chdir_name receives string
+ pointers which might later be overwritten, but nevertheless saved
+ into structures, so, use xstrdup for the time being.
+ Reported by Michael Holmes.
+
+ * tar.c (name_next, name_from_list): Abort when chdir fails.
+ Reported by Ian Jackson and Marty Leisner.
+
+1995-05-28 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * rmt.h: Declare second argument of __rmt_lseek to be off_t
+ instead of long, so it is the same as in rmt.c.
+ Reported by Chris Arthur.
+
+ * buffer.c (close_archive): Compensate for the addition of 2
+ to ar_block at open_archive time, for when -M used, just before
+ calling free.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible, Clinton Carr, Hernan Prieto Schmidt,
+ Kevin Dalley, Loren J. Rittle and Marty Leisner.
+
+ * rmt.c: Replace SSIZE by STRING_SIZE, avoiding a conflict
+ with some header files.
+ Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi and William Bader.
+
+ * tar.c: Use DEVICE_PREFIX instead of DEVICE_PREXIX, and
+ WITH_REGEX instead of WITH_REGEC.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+1995-05-16 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Prerelease 1.11.7.
+
+ * Makefile.in (tar): Have $(OBJECTS) depend on system.h.
+
+ * system.h: Many adjustements for GNU gettext.
+
+1995-05-09 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Clean glocale out.
+
+1995-05-08 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Use libintl.a while linking.
+ * system.h: Include <libintl.h> unconditionally, instead only
+ if WITH_CATALOG. Let <libintl.h> define _() appropriately.
+ * tar.c (main): Call textdomain.
+
+1995-05-02 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * system.h, gnu.c, list.c, port.c: Avoid
+ superfluous parentheses in macro definitions.
+ * port.c: Capitalize macro arguments.
+ * buffer.c, create.c, diffarch.c, tar.c: Use comma
+ operator when assignment in test.
+
+1995-04-27 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * port.c (link): Use WARN to report the message.
+ Reported by Sherwood Botsford.
+
+1995-03-19 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Remove GLOCALE, add LINGUAS, use fp_WITH_CATALOGS.
+ * system.h: Use WITH_CATALOGS to define _() differently.
+
+1995-03-14 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * rtapelib.c (__rmt_open): Close the unused side of each
+ pipe, instead of the useful one, prior to processing.
+ Reported by Charles Lopes and Minh Tran-Le.
+
+1995-02-22 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Replace `date' by `echo timestamp'.
+
+1995-02-19 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Support ID files. Do not distribute TAGS.
+
+1995-02-13 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Use top_srcdir.
+
+1995-02-11 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * gnu.c (is_dot_or_dotdot): Through NFS, readdir might deliver
+ empty filenames under old Solaris 2.4, causing endless loops in
+ tar. As a workaround, avoid `' as done already for `.' and `..'.
+ Reported by Jan Carlson.
+
+1995-02-05 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in (maintainer-clean): New name for realclean.
+
+1995-01-04 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * extract.c (make_dirs) [MSDOS]: Correct for Turbo C, which may
+ return EACCES instead of EEXIST on mkdir.
+ Reported by Jeffrey Goldberg.
+
+ * tar.c (usage) [MSDOS]: Do not tell about -N and related.
+ (decode_options) [MSDOS]: Be blind to -N and related.
+ Reported by Jeffrey Goldberg.
+
+ * rmt.h (_remdev): A filename is not remote if the colon is
+ preceeded by a slash, to take care of `/:/' which is a shorthand
+ for `/.../<CELL-NAME>/fs' on OSF's Distributing Computing
+ Environment (DCE) and Distributed File System (DFS).
+ Reported by Travis L. Priest.
+
+1995-01-03 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.c (decode_options): Renamed from options. Convert
+ oldish-style non-dashed options to modern writing before
+ performing option decoding. Diagnose when modern options are met
+ before old style options are fully converted. This allows
+ mixing of option styles on a single call. Avoid getoldopt and
+ use getopt_long instead.
+ * getoldopt.c: Deleted.
+ * tar.h: Prototype deleted.
+ * Makefile.in: Adjusted.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible, Les Mikesell, Patrick Timmons and Saul
+ Lubkin.
+
+1995-01-02 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * system.h: New file, split out of tar.h.
+ * buffer.c, create.c, diffarch.c, extract.c,
+ getoldopt.c, gnu.c, list.c, mangle.c, names.c,
+ port.c, tar.c, update.c: Include "system.h", and move

+ * Makefile.in: Distribute system.h.
+
+ * rmt.c: Include "system.h", and simplify accordingly.
+ * rtapelib.c: Include "system.h", and simplify accordingly.
+ * rmt.h: Simplify according to the inclusion of "system.h".
+
+ * system.h: Include conditionnaly <sys/gentape.h>,
+ <sys/tape.h>, <sys/mtio.h>, <sys/ioctl.h> and <sys/io/trioctl.h>.
+ * buffer.c, diffarch.c, rmt.c, rtapelib.c,
+ update.c: Simplify accordingly.
+
+ * system.h: If it exists, include <sys/ioccom.h> prior to
+ <sys/mtio.h>, to account for problems when GNU libc 1.0x is
+ installed over SunOS 4.1.3: GNU libc does not provide sys/mtio.h,
+ so it is taken from Sun header files which use things like _IOW,
+ which GNU libc despises, sys/ioccom.h then provides definitions.
+ Reported by Joseph E. Sacco.
+
+1994-12-27 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * rmt.h: Ensure strrchr is defined to rindex in some cases.

+ * port.c: Adjust, declare and use ISPRINT.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible, Konno Hiroharu and Max Hailperin.
+
+1994-12-11 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * buffer.c, tar.c [WITH_REGEX]: Check it.
+
+1994-12-03 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Prerelease 1.11.6.
+
+ * rmt.c: Adjust for localization, by including <locale.h> and
+ <libintl.h>, by defining _(), by defining and calling setlocale,
+ and by defining and initializing program_name.
+ * Makefile.in: Use locale.o and libtar.a with rmt.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Ensure INSTALL_DATA is defined.
+
+ * Makefile.in, tar.h, tar.c:
+ Localize, adapting from how it is done in sharutils.
+
+ * Makefile.in, tar.c: Rename PRODUCT to PACKAGE.
+
+1994-11-29 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * buffer.c (backspace_output): Change cur from long to off_t.
+ * diffarch.c (diff_archive): Idem for offset.
+ * extract.c (extract_archive): Idem for offset.
+ * rmt.c: Idem for lseek ().

+ result to (off_t) rather than (long).
+ * rtapelib.c (__rmt_lseek): Idem of offset argument.
+ * tar.h: Change offset of sp_array from int to off_t.
+ * update.c (move_arch): Change cur from long to off_t.
+ Reported by David J. MacKenzie.

+ diffarch.c, extract.c, gnu.c, list.c,
+ rtapelib.c, update.c: Rename _ to __P.
+ * tar.h, rmt.h: Declare _ as a macro returning its
+ argument, or else, include <libintl.h> and declare _ as gettext.
+ * tar.c: Possibly include <locale.h> and call setlocale.
+ * rmt.c, buffer.c, create.c, diffarch.c,
+ extract.c, getoldopt.c, gnu.c, list.c,
+ mangle.c, port.c, rtapelib.c, tar.c,
+ update.c: Use _ macro over all localizable strings.
+
+ * rtapelib.c: Declare prototype for xstrdup. Do not declare
+ strstr, which is not needed.
+
+1994-11-01 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Clean up, following those of GNU m4. I will

+ * (un_quote_string): Increment to_there pointer in all cases.
+ Reported by Konno Hiroharu, Mats Lofkvist, Max Hailperin and
+ Ryutaro Susukita.
+
+1994-10-09 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * rmt.c, rtapelib.c, tar.h: Get rid of CONFIG_BROKETS.
+
+1994-10-04 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * diffarch.c (fill_in_sparse_array): Add a cast for Pyramid's
+ dumb compiler. Later remove the cast and compare to 0 instead.
+ * extract.c (extract_archive): Idem.
+ Reported by Karl Vogel and Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+1994-09-27 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * diffarch.c: Normalize capitalization in diagnostics.
+
+1994-09-26 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.c (name_next, name_match): Abort tar if directory cannot
+ be changed, instead of going on. This is not an innocuous error.
+ Reported by Marty Leisner.
+
+1994-09-15 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * rtapelib.c: Include "rmt.h" only once <sys/types.h> has been
+ included, because off_t might not be defined otherwise.
+ Reported by James W. McKelvey, John L. Chmielewski, Karl
+ Vogel, Kaveh R. Ghazi an and Jim Meyering and Tilman Schmidt.
+
+1994-09-14 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Cleanup...
+ (DISTFILES): Distribute TAGS.
+ (ansi2knr): Use $(LIBS).
+ (TAGS): Make TAGS in $(srcdir) only.
+ (distclean): Do not remove TAGS.
+ (realclean): Remove TAGS.
+ (Makefile): Have ./config.status create this Makefile only.
+
+1994-09-13 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * buffer.c: Remove the presetting of stdlis, because stdout is
+ not a constant in GNU libc.
+ Reported by Joseph E. Sacco and Thomas Bushnell n/BSG.
+
+ * buffer.c (new_volume): Pass an otherwise unused argument to
+ wait, do not use NULL.
+ Reported by Thomas Bushnell n/BSG.
+
+1994-09-05 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Makefile.in (TAGS): Remove -t on etags call. It has been
+ the default behavior for a few releases of Emacs and it seems that
+ option -t is now disappearing (from Emacs 19.25, at least).
+ Reported by Goeran Uddeborg.
+
+1994-09-02 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * gnu.c (get_dir_contents): Do not set dp->allnew if dp is not
+ set itself.
+ Reported by Piercarlo Grandi.
+
+ * extract.c (extract_archive): Issue diagnostic or verbose
+ messages to msg_file, instead of stdout.
+ Reported by Piercarlo Grandi.
+
+1994-08-23 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.h: Do not declare alloca if already defined, so HP's
+ +Olibcalls compiler option works.
+ Reported by John David Anglin.
+
+ * rtapelib.c (__rmt_open): Use REMOTE_SHELL only if defined.
+ Otherwise, if the command argument has been specified and
+ REMOTE_SHELL is not defined, immediately return an error.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible, Kaveh R. Ghazi, Marty Leisner,
+ Torkel Hasle and William Bader.
+
+ Because --rsh-command may always be given, even if no remote shell
+ was found at configure time, remote capabilities are always
+ compiled. This also solve other problems related to RTAPELIB.
+ * Makefile.in: Always compile $Urtapelib.o.
+ * buffer.c (child_open): Always test _remdev, do not depend
+ anymore on HAVE_RTAPELIB.
+ * rmt.h [!HAVE_RTAPELIB]: Remove some code.
+ Reported by Andreas Schwab and Vic Abell.
+
+ * rtapelib.c: Remove unused COMPAT (mis)feature. Remove most
+ length limitations for remote host name, remote user name and
+ remote device name. Duplicate path, and free it in all cases.
+ * (_rmt_rexec): The `user' parameter may never by the empty
+ string. Remove code for that case.
+
+1994-08-22 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ Little cleanup in installation:
+ * Makefile.in: Remove rule for ../lib/libtar.a.
+
+1994-08-21 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Prerelease 1.11.5.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Correct for when a different build directory.
+
+ * tar.h: Replace W* definitions. Adapted from make 3.71.
+ * buffer.c (close_archive): Replace WIFCOREDUMPED by
+ WCOREDUMP. Previous WIFSIGNALED definition was excluding SIGSTOP,
+ new definition do not exclude it anymore. We'll see.
+ Reported by Demizu Noritoshi, Greg Black, Kaveh R. Ghazi,
+ Robert E. Brown and Russ Evans.
+
+1994-08-20 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ This might (?) solve the dirent problems on NeXT's and Apollo's:
+ * tar.h: Change includes and defines from older AC_DIR_HEADER
+ style to newer and clearer AC_HEADER_DIRENT style.
+ * create.c, gnu.c: Replace NLENGTH by NAMLEN.
+ Reported by Drew Trieger, Hugh Secker-Walker, James W. McKelvey,
+ Robert E. Brown and Thomas Krebs.
+
+1994-08-17 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ Remove some shadowings.
+ * update.c (update_archive): Rename head_standard to unused.
+ * buffer.c (open_archive): Rename head to label.
+ (fl_read): Rename head to cursor.
+
+ * gnu.c (dirent_cmp): Use (char *const *), not (const char **)

+
+ * mangle.c (extract_mangle): Remove unused argument.
+ * tar.h: Adjust prototype.
+ * extract.c (extract_archive): Caller changed.
+
+ * rtapelib.c (__rmt_open): Remove useless mode parameter.
+ * rmt.h, tar.h: Adjust prototype.
+ * rmt.h: Adjust macros calling __rmt_open.
+ * create.c (deal_with_sparse): Remove unused argument.
+ * create.c (dump_file): Caller changed.
+ Reported by Greg Black.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Avoid $U in defining RTAPELIB. Remove both
+ rtapelib.o and _urtapelib.o explicit rules, not needed anymore.
+ * rmt.h, buffer.c [HAVE_RTAPELIB]: Instead of !NO_REMOTE.
+ Reported by Andreas Schwab.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Correct a typo in $Ubuffer.o dependencies.
+ Reported by Andreas Schwab.
+
+ * rtapelib.c (__rmt_ioctl): Compile the MTIOCGET case only if
+ this symbol is defined. This also solves a missing mt_type field
+ on NS32016 running SysVr2.2.
+ Reported by Greg Black.
+
+ * rtapelib.c (__rmt_ioctl) : Conditionnalize only the MTIOCTOP
+ case, not the whole routine, with the MTIOCTOP symbol. In case of
+ unrecognized operation, return EOPNOTSUPP instead of EINVAL.
+ * rmt.h: Always provide a prototype for __rmt_ioctl. Delete
+ the RMTIOCTL machinery.
+
+1994-08-16 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * rmt.c, buffer.c: Use a more uniform way of including
+ <sys/mtio.h> or its alternates.
+ Reported by Daniel R. Guilderson and Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Split rule for $Urtapelib.o into one rule for
+ rtapelib.o and one rule for _rtapelib.o, taking care of the fact
+ that rtapelib.c is in $(srcdir) while _rtapelib.c is in current
+ directory.
+ Reported by Andreas Schwab, Kaveh R. Ghazi, Minh Tran-Le and
+ Per Foreby.
+
+ * rmt.c (string_error): Correct DEBUG2 into DEBUG1, and strint
+ into string.
+ Reported by Anders Andersson, Bruno Haible, Thomas Krebs and
+ Thomas König.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Add $U's to rtapelib and rmt specific rules.
+ Reported by Thomas König.
+
+1994-08-15 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * Prerelease 1.11.4.
+
+ * rmt.c (numeric_error): Renamed from error.
+ (string_error): New, to replace ERROR ((...)), unavailable in rmt.c.
+
+ * rmt.c (checkbuf): Do not accept, nor return record. Use the
+ global instead. This will get rid of useless shadowings.
+
+ * rmt.h: Give prototypes for __rmt_* routines.
+ * rtapelib.c: Include "rmt.h".
+ * update.c (move_arch): Cast last rmtioctl argument to char *.
+ * buffer.c (backspace_output): Idem.
+ * diffarch.c (verify_volume): Idem.
+
+ * Makefile.in (rmt): Declare dependencies over rmt.h.
+

+ Reported by Ben A. Mesander.
+
+1994-08-13 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.h: Include <sys/wait.h> if it exists, whether POSIX or not.
+ Check if WIFSTOPPED is defined, to decide if defining others WIF*.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+1994-08-11 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * extract.c (extract_archive) [O_CTG]: Declare longname variable.
+ Initialize it as NULL. This dirty kludge will allow the module to
+ compile on Masscomp's, for the time being.
+ Reported by Ben A. Mesander.
+
+ * tar.h, rtapelib.c: Declare strstr if we replaced it.
+ Reported by Ben A. Mesander, Christian T. Dum and Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+1994-08-10 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Do not test only for hpux, but also
+ for __hpux. I added __hpux__ too, as done in tar.h.
+ Reported by Richard Lloyd.
+
+ * tar.h: Do not include <sys/mknod.h> anymore for HP-UX from
+ HP-UX 8 and after, for which definitions are in <sys/sysmacros.h>,
+ and reorganize the tests in this area.
+ Reported by Christian T. Dum, Dimitris Fousekis, Kimmy Posey,
+ Michael Maass, Richard Lloyd and Thomas König.
+
+1994-08-09 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ These changes for const-cleaning gnu.c and tar.c:
+ * tar.c (read_name_from_file): Work directly on global
+ variables instead of accepting parameters. Return success or
+ failure as an int instead of the relocated name_buffer.
+ (name_next): Caller changed, internal clean-up of the function.
+ Remove trailing slashes on the command call too, not only when
+ reading from a file through -T option.
+ * gnu.c: Add const to name and dir_text in struct dirname.
+ Reported by Ben A. Mesander, Bruno Haible, Christian T. Dum,
+ Dean Gaudet, James W. McKelvey, Richard Lloyd and Robert E. Brown.
+
+1994-08-08 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.c (name_next, name_gather, addname): Use strcmp for
+ checking for "-C", instead of decomposed tests, just for clarity.
+
+ * Makefile.in (RSH): Define from configuration.
+ (rtapelib.o): Define REMOTE_SHELL from $(RSH) while compiling.
+ * rtapelib.c (__rmt_open): If command not given, use
+ REMOTE_SHELL, instead of cascading tries of filenames.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+ * tar.c: Include <fnmatch.h> if FNM_LEADING_DIR is not
+ defined, instead of checking for FNM_PATHNAME, because some
+ <unistd.h> define the later without defining the former.
+ Reported by Thomas König.
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Cast alloca results, for those
+ compilers not processing void * properly.
+ Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Get prefix and exec_prefix from configure.
+ Reported by Andreas Schwab, Christian T. Dum and Dean Gaudet.
+
+ * src/port.c: Delete mkdir (and rmdir), rename, strstr and
+ ftruncate replacements.
+ Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi (for memset and strstr).
+ Reported by Bruno Haible (for mkdir and rename).
+
+1994-08-05 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.h: Replace msg_file by stdlis.
+ * buffer.c, gnu.c, list.c, diffarch.c: Idem.
+
+ * tar.c (main): Print version on stdout, not stderr.
+
+ * tar.h: Unconditionnaly insert the pad. Why play the game of
+ forcing the compiler to do it for us? (Hum! I'm not so sure.)
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+ * list.c (read_header): Initialize signed_sum to 0. Use this
+ opportunity for slightly reorganizing the code around.
+ Reported by Anders Andersson, Andrey A. Chernov, Bruno Haible
+ and Chris Ransom.
+
+ * tar.c: Declare name_buffer_length as size_t instead of int.
+ Reported by Andreas Schwab, J.T. Conklin, Kaveh R. Ghazi and
+ Robert E. Brown.
+
+ * rmt.h: Have the NO_REMOTE case be a particular case of the
+ other, for rmtopen and rmtcreat were not transmitting the proper
+ number of parameters to open and creat (since 26 July 1994).
+ Reported by Andreas Schwab.
+
+ * extract.c (extract_archive): Delay changing owner to after
+ doing utime, for keeping long enough the permission of utime'ing.
+ (extract_archive, restore_saved_dir_info): Idem for directories.
+ Reported by Jonathan I. Kamens.
+
+ * tar.h: Change malloc_dbg to dmalloc, mutatis mutandis.
+
+ * tar.h: Undefine many macros if stat macros found to be
+ broken. Define mkfifo only if configure did not find it.
+ Include <sys/param.h> if not _POSIX_SOURCE, then <unistd.h> if
+ we have it, than "pathmax.h". Move _POSIX_VERSION dependent
+ code further down. Do not declare getcwd if we do not have it.
+ * tar.c: Do not include <unistd.h>, now in "tar.h".
+ Reported by Bernard Chen, Jean-Michel Soenen, John L.
+ Chmielewski and Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+ * tar.h: Define DEV_BSIZE, ST_BLKSIZE and ST_NBLOCKS,
+ borrowing this code from both fileutils-3.9's "lib/system.h" and
+ textutils-1.9's "system.h".
+ * create.c (dump_file): Straighten the test for sparseness,
+ which was requiring one block too much, most probably for trying
+ to get around DEV_BSIZE/st_blksize confusion. Use ST_NBLOCKS,
+ instead of computing a variable block_size and doing specific
+ tests for HP-UX or Linux. Also rewrite the test so it works
+ when ST_NBLOCKS is unsigned.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible, Dean Gaudet, Dick Streefland, Harald
+ König, Jim Meyering, Kai Petzke, Kaveh R. Ghazi and Torkel Hasle.

+ (extract_archive), list.c (list_archive, read_header),
+ buffer.c (open_archive), diffarch.c (diff_archive): Use
+ assign_string for setting these variables to a string value or
+ NULL.
+ * buffer.c (open_archive): Sets current_file_name,
+ current_link_name and save_name to NULL.
+ (close_archive): Free each of them if not NULL.
+ (fl_write): Take a copy of save_name into cursor, and advance the

+
+ * list.c (print_header): Correct a little bug by which
+ non-symbolic links were not printed properly quoted.
+
+ * diffarch.c (diff_archive): Allocate tmpbuf to the proper
+ size. NAMSIZ + 2 is not necessarily enough.
+
+1994-08-01 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.h: Refresh str*/mem* configured declarations. Among
+ other things, this will solve previously missing #undef's.
+ * rmt.h: Revise strchr configured declaration.
+ * *.c: Replace bzero by memset, bcopy by memcpy, bcmp by
+ memcmp, index by strchr and rindex by strrchr.
+ * port.c: Delete functions bzero and bcmp, said to not exist
+ on Minix. AC_MINIX in configure.in should guarantee POSIX things.
+ Reported by Drew Trieger, Hugh Secker-Walker and Vic Abell.
+
+ * tar.h, tar.c, buffer.c, update.c: Change CMD_* to COMMAND_*.
+
+ * buffer.c (open_archive): Use strcmp to compare archive name
+ to `-', instead of doing it explicitely. Just for clarity.
+
+ * tar.h, tar.c, buffer.c: Replace ar_files by
+ archive_name_array, n_ar_files by archive_names and ar_files_len
+ by allocated_archive_names. Replace the index cur_ar_file by
+ archive_name_cursor, which is a cursor in archive_name_array.
+
+ * tar.c (main): Move the initialization of
+ archive_name_array at beginning, taken from options routine.
+ Free it at end of main.
+ (options): Use xrealloc instead of ck_realloc for archive_name,
+ for the already saved names to be preserved.
+ Reported by Per Bojsen.
+
+ * tar.h, tar.c: Replace name_file by namefile_name.
+ * tar.c: Replace n_ind by name_array, n_indused by names,
+ n_indalloc by allocated_names, and n_indscan by name_index.
+ Replace namef by name_file, n_argv by names_argv and n_argc by

+ (main): Make an initial allocation for name_array at beginning,
+ moved out from name_add, free it at end of main.
+
+ * buffer.c (close_archive): Free ar_block at end.
+
+1994-07-30 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.h [WITH_MALLOC_DBG]: Include "malloc_dbg.h".
+
+ * create.c (create_archive): Do not attempt creating a
+ directory summary file if -G, since -G sets gnu_dumpfile to 0.
+ Reported by Alexander Dupuy.
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Avoid a NULL dereference with -G when
+ trying to dump an empty directory.
+ * gnu.c (add_dir_name): Same thing.
+ Reported by Rainer Orth.
+
+ Correction for the improper `data differs' diagnostic given when
+ the continuation of a multi-volume was compared.
+ * diffarch.c (diff_archive): If multi-volume, update save_name
+ and save_totsize before calling wantbytes.
+ * buffer.c (wantbytes): If multi-volume, update save_sizeleft.

+ exit with exit_status.
+ * buffer.c, diffarch.c, gnu.c, list.c, port.c,
+ rmt.c, tar.c, update.c: Replace EXIT_FAILURE by
+ TAREXIT_FAILURE, and EXIT_SUCCESS by TAREXIT_SUCCESS.
+ * tar.h (ERROR), create.c (dump_file): Set exit_status to
+ TAREXIT_FAILURE instead of increasing errors.
+ * diffarch.c (sigh, diff_sparse_files): On differences, set
+ exit_status to TAREXIT_DIFFERS if nothing more serious already.
+ Reported by Tilman Schmidt.
+
+ * rmt.c: Define EXIT_FAILURE and EXIT_SUCCESS if not already.
+ * rtapelib.c: Define EXIT_ON_EXEC_ERROR to 128 and use it.
+
+1994-07-27 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * diffarch.c (sigh): Increment errors, so a difference will
+ yield a non-zero exit status at end.
+ Reported by Nick Holloway.
+
+ * tar.h: Rename TARERROR to WARN, then add ERROR which is similar,
+ but increments the errors counter.
+ * *.c: Replace all TARERROR by WARN or ERROR, deciding for each
+ case. Many errors were not reflected in exit status.
+
+ Reported by Carl Streeter, Esa Karell, George Chyu, Ian Jackson,
+ Judy Ricker, Massimo Dal Zotto, Roland McGrath, Tilman Schmidt
+ and Torkel Hasle.
+
+ * buffer.c (child_open): Exit with EXIT_FAILURE if any error.
+
+ * rtapelib.c: Use error for reporting errors.
+ (do_command): New name for command.
+ (get_status): New name for status.
+
+ * buffer.c: Remove definition of MAGIC_STAT.
+ (close_archive): Do not check MAGIC_STAT for an exit value, since
+ this value is never returned.
+
+ * *.c: Use TARERROR or exit with EXIT_FAILURE, instead of various
+ esoteric statuses. Normalize using TARERROR with an exit status,
+ instead of calling TARERROR with 0 first, then _exit. On exit
+ calls, use EXIT_SUCCESS instead of 0.
+ * tar.c: Do not use the exit status anymore for outputting an
+ error counter value. Wrap around was creating spurious success.
+ * tar.h: Remove EX_* definitions for tar exit statuses.
+ Reported by Bob Mende and Torbjorn Granlund.
+
+1994-07-26 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.h: Add f_rsh_command variable.
+ * tar.c: Add and process --rsh-command option.
+ * buffer.c (open_archive, child_open, new_volume): Pass

+ * rmt.h (rmtopen, rmtcreat): Pass a supplementary argument.
+ * rtapelib.c (__rmt_open): Accept and process a command
+ argument, to replace rsh.
+ Reported by Jonathan I. Kamens.
+
+ * tar.h: Instead of including <sys/file.h> with BSD42 or
+ <fcntl.h> for V7, merely include <fcntl.h> if it exists,
+ otherwise <sys/file.h>.
+ * buffer.c, diffarch.c, extract.c, list.c,
+ port.c, update.c: Do not include <fcntl.h> or
+ <sys/file.h>, because they are indirectly included through
+ "tar.h".
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Remove the BSD42 conditional. If not
+ f_sparse_files, initialize upperbound as when not BSD42.
+ Reported by Alan Bawden, Claude Scarpelli, Laurent
+ Sainte-Marthe, Noah Friedman, Reuben Sumner, Tom Quinn and
+ William Bader.
+
+1994-07-24 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

+ Reported by Mark Frost.
+
+ * tar.c (main): Zero out label_pattern before compiling in
+ regular expressions, instead of using uninitialized memory.
+ Reported by Holger Teutsch.
+

+ to define this symbol.
+ Reported by Alan Modra, Christian T. Dum, Eddy ?, John
+ Oleynick and Richard Lloyd.
+
+ * buffer.c, diffarch.c, rtapelib.c, update.c:
+ Include <sys/io/trioctl.h> before <sys/mtio.h>, if it exists.
+ Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+ * tar.c (options): Use defined OPTION_* constants instead of
+ anonymous numbers for long options not having a short option form.
+
+ * rmt.h [!MTIOCTOP]: Do not define RMTIOCTL, so __rmt_ioctl
+ will not be called if it has not been compiled in rtapelib.c.
+
+ * tar.h: Add CMD_TOO_MANY.
+ * tar.c (main): Use CMD_TOO_MANY, and get rid of badopt label.
+ Reported by David J. MacKenzie.

+
+ * tar.h: Merge "port.h" towards the beginning of tar.h.
+ Include <stdio.h> and <errno.h>, and define errno if needed.
+ * *.c: Do not include "port.h" anymore after "tar.h", do not
+ include <stdio.h>, <errno.h> nor <sys/types.h>. Also move
+ "tar.h" as the first file included in every module. This
+ would solve, among other things, the problem of RE_DUP_MAX
+ being redefined by <limits.h>, when included after "regex.h".
+ * port.h: Deleted.
+ * Makefile.in: Adjusted.
+ Reported by Alan Modra, Christian T. Dum, Dimitris Fousekis,
+ John David Anglin, Matthew Braun, Michael Maass, Richard Lloyd
+ and Stefan Skoglund.
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Do not cast alloca result to (char *).
+ The problem reported was that alloca result was seen as int, but
+ with the changes just made, alloca should be properly declared.
+ Reported by Bryant Fujimoto and Michael Kubik.
+
+1994-07-06 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * create.c, extract.c [HAVE_UTIME_H]: Instead of _POSIX_VERSION,

+1994-07-05 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * tar.c: Replace DEF_AR_FILE with DEFAULT_ARCHIVE, replace
+ DEFBLOCKING with DEFAULT_BLOCKING.
+
+ * rtapelib.c: Replace "??'" by "?? '" at two places in a
+ comment, so avoiding Pyramid's DC/OSx compiler to complain about

+ Reported by Mark Frost.
+
+ * tar.h: Declare valloc.
+ * buffer.c, diffarch.c: Remove declaration for valloc.
+
+ * testpad.c: Deleted.
+ * tar.h: Do not include "testpad.h" anymore.
+ * Makefile.in: Delete testpad matters.
+
+ * buffer.c (new_volume): Inside case 'n', strcpy into r then
+ assign r to p, instead of strcpy'ing directly into p, for making
+ the module const clean.
+
+1994-07-03 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ Rename a few variables to avoid shadowing variables or functions:
+ * list.c (print_header): Change name to quoted_name.
+ * buffer.c (child_open): Change pipe to local_pipe.
+ * extract.c (extract_archive): Change namelen to namelen_bis.
+ * rtapelib.c (__rmt_open): Change system to remote.
+
+ * tar.c (options): Add two missing arguments to getoldopt
+ call, NULL is not necessarily implied on all systems.

+ * list.c (print_header): Add a few missing long specification
+ in formats.
+ * diffarch.c (compare_chunk, diff_sparse_files): Idem.
+ * port.c (msg, msg_perror): Idem.
+
+ * tar.h: Include prototypes for all functions which call from
+ one module to another. Declare voidstar (use it everywhere
+ instead of PTR). Move in the include <sys/stat.h> from
+ <port.h>, and the include of option.h from tar.c and
+ getoldopt.c, waiting for a better solution for all these things.
+ * port.c: Removed PTR declaration and including <sys/stat.h>.
+ * getoldopt.c, tar.c: Remove including "option.h".
+
+1994-07-02 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * *: Protoized all function headers. Added static to
+ functions which can take it. Add many const specifiers. Remove
+ unused variables.
+
+ * port.c (xmalloc): Delete function, do not mask the true one.
+ * port.c (ck_malloc): Use xmalloc, waiting for annihilation.
+ * port.c (ck_realloc): Use xrealloc, waiting for annihilation.
+ * *: Begin switching from ck_malloc (or even pure malloc) to
+ xmalloc. Same for ck_realloc (pure realloc) to xrealloc.
+ Doing this correctly is a delicate matter, which I'll continue
+ without reporting it anymore, while doing other modifications.
+
+ * *: Replace msg and msg_perror calls by TARERROR macro calls.
+ Capitalize first word of all error messages, remove ending
+ punctuation or newline. Systematically avoid contractions for
+ `Cannot' and `Could not'. Always write `WARNING:' all in capitals.
+ * tar.h: Declare TARERROR as calling error(). Rename
+ variable tar to program_name.
+ * tar.c (main, options), buffer.c (child_open), port.c
+ (msg, msg_perror), gnu.c (gnu_restore): Rename variable tar to
+ program_name.
+ * gnu.c (gnu_restore): Remove a spurious repetition of

+
+ * buffer.c, create.c extract.c, gnu.c, list.c,
+ names.c, rmt.c, tar.c, update.c: Remove all (void)
+ prefixes to function calls. There are limits to lint clutter.
+
+1994-06-30 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>
+
+ * port.h: Remove definition of const. Let configure do it.
+
+ * tar.h, rmt.c, rtapelib.c, version.c, testpad.c: Add a block
+ for including <config.h> or "config.h". If "tar.h" was included
+ everywhere, the block will only be needed there.
+
+ * *.[ch]: Reindented to GNU standards (they were not far).
+ Got rid of all `* ' left prefixes in comments and refilled them.
+ There is still a lot of cosmetic changes needed everywhere.
+ I will not report them any more, doing them along the way of
+ other things in the future.
+
+ * Makefile.in: New file.
+
+ * Split distribution into a few subdirectories, for easing
+ maintainance.
+
+ * Taking over maintenance duties.

+ to give the correct name of the option.
+
+1993-03-16 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * extract.c (extract_archive): case LF_DIR: Do chown when

+
+ * tar.c (describe, long_options, options): Added gzip options
+ and use-compress-program option.
+ * tar.h: Added new compression options.

+
+ * create.c (deal_with_sparse): If exactly 26 elements in
+ sparsearray, only 25 were written.
+ Reported by Jim Murray.
+
+ * create.c (deal_with_sparse): If the file ends with a zero
+ block, the last byte was not written. This is fixed in create

+
+1992-09-17 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * configure.in: Check for getpwuid and getgrgid.
+ Reported by J.T. Conklin.

+ Reported by J.T. Conklin and Michael Ellis.
+
+ * Makefile.in (SRC3, AUX): Move alloca.c to SRC3.
+ (OBJ3): Add @ALLOCA@.
+
+ * Makefile.in (getdate.c): Look in srcdir for getdate.y.
+
+ * buffer.c (close_archive): We can't check WTERMSIG
+ meaningfully unless we already know tha WIFSIGNALED is true.
+ (There is no guarantee it WTERMSIG will return zero when
+ WIFSIGNALED is false.)
+ * port.c (rmdir, mkdir): Check WIFSIGNALED rather than
+ WTERMSIG.
+
+ * Makefile.in (getdate.c): Use $(YACC) instead of `yacc'.
+\f
+1992-09-15 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>

+ some makes don't have one built in.
+
+1992-09-14 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (options, main): Advise use of --help rather than
+ +help.
+ Reported by J.T. Conklin.
+
+ * create.c (write_long): Using hstat here is a Bad Idea, and
+ totally unnecessary at that.
+
+ * list.c (read_header): Compute both signed and normal
+ checksums.
+ Reported by Robert E. Brown.
+
+ * diffarch.c, buffer.c: Declare valloc as void* rather than
+ char*.
+ Reported by Robert E. Brown.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Don't install info files.
+

+ * tar.c (addname): Missing braces after if.
+ * gnu.c (read_dir_file): Missing braces after if.
+
+ * names.c: Add include of <stdio.h>,
+

+ Define libdir instead of hardcoding /etc for installing rmt.
+
+1992-09-10 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * list.c (read_header): On second thought, that doesn't work
+ either, so just store the names in malloced areas. Sigh.
+
+ * NEWS: New file.
+ * README: Removed things that belong in NEWS; point to it.
+
+ * list.c (read_header): current_file_name and
+ current_link_name need to be set to the arrays in head rather
+ than header; header is the actual read buffer and will change.
+
+ * extract.c (extract_archive):
+ * buffer.c (new_volume): `#' directives need to start in
+ column 1.
+ Reported by J.T. Conklin.
+\f

+1992-09-08 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * extract.c: Removed long name support from here.
+ * list.c (read_header): Understand and skip longname/longlink
+ headers here. Names for current file are stored in new global
+ variables. All source files except create.c changed to refer
+ to current_file_name and current_link_name instead of fields
+ directly from the current header.
+
+1992-09-03 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c (write_long): New function.

+
+ * extract.c: saved_dir_info, saved_dir_info_head: new type and
+ var.
+ (extract_archive): When extracting directories, now save info
+ in saved_dir_info_head.
+ (restore_saved_dir_info): New function.
+ * list.c (read_and): Call restore_saved_dir_info at the end of
+ the run.
+ Reported by Chris Arthur.
+
+1992-08-31 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c (create_archive): If there are no names specified,
+ write nothing on the archive instead of dumping ".".
+
+ * buffer.c (open_archive): Useful error message.
+
+ * tar.c, tar.h: Recognize f_atime_preserve.
+ * create.c (dump_file): Implement f_atime_preserve.

+ names; obey new force-local flag.
+ * tar.c, tar.h: Implement new force-local flag.
+ Reported by Roland Schemers III.
+
+ * tar.c (describe): same-owner and same-order were confused.
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Check for toplevel had sense reversed.
+
+ * buffer.c (new_archive): Don't free old_name...when these
+ come from the command line, they aren't malloced, and it isn't
+ important to save this trivial amount of memory.
+
+ * tar.h: replace ar_file with ar_files, n_ar_files,
+ cur_ar_files.
+ * buffer.c (open_archive): multi-volume compressed archives
+ never worked; give an appropriate error. Change open of
+ ar_file to open of ar_files[0].
+ (writeerror, readerror, flush_archive): use
+ ar_files[cur_ar_file] instead of ar_file.
+ (new_archive): Necessary changes to support ar_files.
+ * tar.c (options): handle multiple tape drive arguments.
+
+1992-08-28 Michael I Bushnell <mib@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * list.c (decode_header), create.c (start_header), tar.h (TMAGIC):
+ Undo djm's changes below; tar does not support the final
+ Posix.1 format; it's bad to make it look like it does.
+
+1992-07-19 David J. MacKenzie <djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * port.h: Try to prevent redefining major.
+ * port.c [minix]: Implies HAVE_BZERO. Fix a typo.
+
+ * list.c (decode_header): Recognize the final POSIX.1 magic as
+ well as the early draft magic for ustar.

+
+ * pathmax.h: New file.
+ * port.h: Include it.
+ * create.c (create_archive): Allocate PATH_MAX instead of

+ what NAME_MAX is (portably).
+
+1992-07-10 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * gnu.c (collect_and_sort_names): write_dir_file has no argument.
+
+1992-07-06 David J. MacKenzie <djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * port.c (rename): If unlinking the source at the end fails,
+ unlink the destination instead to avoid leaving a mess.
+
+1992-07-03 David J. MacKenzie <djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c, diffarch.c, update.c, rtapelib.c [HAVE_SYS_MTIO_H]:

+ get_dir_contents; see djm's change of Fri Jul 26 01:12:58 1991.
+
+1992-05-04 David J. MacKenzie <djm@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.h: Make comments for option names say -- instead of +.
+
+1992-04-29 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c, tar.t: Added +volno-file option.
+ buffer.c (init_volume_number, closeout_volume_number): New functions.
+ tar.c (main): Call new functions in the right place.
+
+ * buffer.c (fl_write, fl_read): Mod to allow losing tape
+ drives which use short counts to indicate end of tape
+ correctly handle the multi-tape stuff. The read half won't
+ co-exist with f_reblock; there's no way to fix that, of
+ course.
+
+ * tar.c, tar.h: Added new option +show-omitted-dirs.
+ list.c (read_and): Implemented show-omitted-dirs.
+ Reported by Karl Berry.
+
+ * tar.c, tar.h: Added new option +checkpoint.
+ buffer.c (fl_read, fl_write): Implemented +checkpoint lazily.
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Added toplevel argument; some devices
+ can be negative, so the old method was bogus. All callers
+ changed.
+ Reported by Max Hailperin.
+
+ * tar.c, tar.h: Added new option +ignore-failed-read.
+ create.c (dump_file): Implemented +ignore-failed-read.
+ Reported by Bob Mende Pie.

+ * tar.c, tar.h: Added new option +remove-files to delete files
+ after they are added to the archive.
+ create.c (dump_file): Implemented +remove-files for
+ everything but directories. I don't think they need it.
+
+1992-04-28 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c: (dump_file): save_name needs to be set equal to p,
+ not something inside the header, because the header changes at
+ the first buffer flush.
+
+1992-04-24 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c: Djm incorrectly moved the include of port.h to
+ precede the include of sys/file.h; restored.
+
+ * tar.c (main): Cases CMD_EXTRACT and CMD_LIST: declare error
+ string with const.
+
+ * gnu.c (collect_and_sort_names): Leave if around
+ write_dir_file in place.

+
+1991-12-20 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * testpad.c (main): flush stderr so perror and fprintf
+ cooperate right.
+
+1991-12-18 David J. MacKenzie <djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * port.h [MAJOR_IN_MKDEV, MAJOR_IN_SYSMACROS]: To find where to
+ get major, minor and makedev.
+ * create.c, list.c, update.c: Don't check USG to include

+1991-12-12 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * mangle.c (extract_mangle): Correctly null terminate name of
+ link target.
+
+1991-11-21 Michael I Bushnell <mib@nutrimat>
+
+ * create.c (dump_file, at start of ISREG output loop): use
+ filename from header instead of real name to make sure that we
+ get the mangled version and not one that is too long and
+ overflows buffers.
+
+1991-11-16 David J. MacKenzie <djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.h: Use new criteria for STDC version of msg.
+
+1991-11-02 David J. MacKenzie <djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c, gnu.c, tar.c [USG]: Use DIRENT instead of NDIR to select
+ between dirent.h and ndir.h.
+
+ * port.c [FOO_MISSING]: Instead of WANT_FOO, to make sharing code
+ and configure script with other utilities easier.

+ error reporting routines.
+
+1991-08-29 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (long_options). Fixed info-script long option.
+ Reported by Eric Norum.
+
+1991-08-26 David J. MacKenzie <djm@pogo.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * configure, Makefile.in: Only put $< in Makefiles if VPATH

+
+1991-08-19 David J. MacKenzie <djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c: Indent '#pragma alloca' so non-ANSI compilers
+ don't choke on it.
+
+1991-08-14 David J. MacKenzie <djm@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * list.c (UGSWIDTH): Increase from 11 (sort of like Unix tar) to
+ 18, so that with normal user and group names of <= 8 chars,
+ the columns never shift in a tar -t listing.
+
+1991-08-02 David J. MacKenzie <djm@apple-gunkies>
+
+ * Makefile.in (dist): Include texinfo.tex and tar.info*.
+ (install): Install tar.info*.
+ * configure: Set INSTALLDATA.
+
+ * configure: Create config.status. Remove it and Makefile if
+ interrupted while creating them.

+
+1991-07-26 David J. MacKenzie <djm@bleen>

+ MSDOS function.
+ * gnu.c (get_dir_contents): Return NULL, not "\0\0\0\0", on error.
+ * diffarch.c (diff_archive): Open files in binary mode.
+ Don't use or free a non-malloc'd return value from get_dir_contents.

+
+ * tar.h, tar.c: Add +null option to make -T read

+ (name_next): Call it instead of fgets.
+ From David J. MacKenzie.
+
+1991-07-24 David J. MacKenzie <djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c [_AIX]: Declare alloca.

+
+1991-07-23 David J. MacKenzie <djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * configure: Only define BSD42 if sys/file.h exists.

+
+ * port.c (ck_malloc, ck_realloc): Return PTR, not char *.
+ * gnu.c, create.c, tar.c: Fix decls.
+
+ * port.c: Don't use the preprocessor to guess missing

+ [WANT_GETWD] (getwd): Function removed; not needed because
+ getcwd is used if needed.
+ * gnu.c, tar.c [POSIX]: Use getcwd.
+
+ * rtapelib.c: Use SIGTYPE instead of testing SIGNAL_VOID.
+ Default to void (more common these days) instead of int.
+
+ * tar.c, gnu.c, mangle.c: Remove VOIDSTAR defn. Use PTR instead.

+
+ * gnu.c, tar.c [__MSDOS__ || USG]: Remove incorrect getcwd decl.
+ [!POSIX]: Put correct one in port.h.
+
+ * tar.c (describe): Print on stdout instead of stderr; it's
+ not so much a usage message (since you have to ask for it
+ explicitly) as on-line help, and you really need to be able to
+ page it because it's more than a screen long.
+
+ * Make #ifdefs for sys/file.h or fcntl.h, directory header,
+ sys/mtio.h consistent between files. Use NO_MTIO instead of
+ tricks with USG and HAVE_MTIO and NO_RMTIOCTL.
+ * Move decls of ANSI C and POSIX functions to port.h and
+ use standard headers to declare them if available
+ [STDC_HEADERS or POSIX].
+ * Add many missing function declarations and return types.
+ * Some places used __MSDOS__, some MSDOS; standardize on __MSDOS__.
+ * Change S_IF macros to S_IS for POSIX.
+ * port.h: Define appropriate S_IS macros if missing.
+ * port.h [POSIX]: Rename macros for testing exit status to conform to
+ POSIX; use the system's versions if available.
+ * Use POSIX PATH_MAX and NAME_MAX instead of MAXPATHLEN and MAXNAMLEN.
+ * port.h: Define PATH_MAX and NAME_MAX.
+ * create.c, gnu.c, tar.c: Use ck_malloc and free instead of
+ auto arrays of size PATH_MAX or NAME_MAX, since with pathconf
+ they might not be constants.
+ * Move all definitions of O_* to port.h to reduce redundancy.
+ * Make all source files that now need to include port.h do so.
+ * port.c: Remove #undefs of WANT_* so you can use -DWANT_*
+ when compiling, instead of having to edit port.c.
+ [WANT_DUMB_GET_DATE] (get_date): Function removed.
+ Even systems without bison can get bison output and compile it.
+ [WANT_STRING] (index, rindex, bcopy, bzero, bcmp): Functions
+ removed; the translation is now done by macros in port.h.
+ * wildmat.c (wildmat): Use POSIX.2 '!' instead of '^' to negate
+ character classes.

+ Reported by Minh Tran-Le.
+
+ * configure: Also look in sys/signal.h for signal decl.
+
+1991-07-10 David J. MacKenzie <djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Rename rtape_server.c to rmt.c and rtape_lib.c to rtapelib.c.
+
+ * configure, Makefile.in: $(INSTALLPROG) -> $(INSTALL).
+
+1991-07-09 David J. MacKenzie <djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Most files: Refer to GPL version 2.
+ * COPYING: Use version 2.
+
+ * port.c [__TURBOC__] (utime): New function.
+
+ * xmalloc: New function (just calls ck_malloc), for alloca.c
+ and bison.simple (in getdate.y output).
+
+ * Makefile.in (AUX): Include alloca.c and tcexparg.c, a
+ command line globber for Turbo C.
+
+1991-07-08 David J. MacKenzie <djm@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * testpad.c: Open and write to testpad.h instead of stdout,
+ because some MS-DOS makes (Borland's at least) can't do
+ redirection in commands.
+ * Makefile.in: Don't redirect testpad output.
+
+1991-07-08 Michael I Bushnell <mib@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c (fl_read): Missing \n in printf.
+
+1991-07-08 David J. MacKenzie <djm@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c, extract.c, gnu.c, diffarch.c, tar.c: Comment out
+ unused variables.
+
+ * tar.c (options): Cast get_date arg to VOIDSTAR instead of
+ `struct timeb *', since on some non-BSD systems the latter is
+ undefined.
+
+1991-07-06 David J. MacKenzie <djm@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Replace Makefile with configure, Makefile.in, and makefile.pc.
+ Update README with current compilation instructions.
+
+ * port.c [WANT_RENAME] (rename): New function.
+
+1991-07-03 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>

+ * tar.h [STDC_MSG]: Use ANSI prototypes for msg and msg_perror,
+ even if BSD42 is also.
+
+ * Makefile: Replace DESTDIR with bindir.

+
+1991-06-12 Michael I Bushnell <mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu>

+
+ * Makefile: rules to create testpad.h, etc.
+
+1991-05-22 Michael I Bushnell <mib@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (options): -L takes an argument.
+

+

+ Reported by David Taylor.
+
+ * Makefile: Comment describing presence of USE_REXEC.
+
+ * extract.c (extract_archive, case LF_SPARSE): zero check for
+ last element on numbytes needs to look at value after
+ converted from octal.
+
+ * port.c [HAVE_STRSTR]: Check it, instead of always demanding strstr.
+ Makefile: Comment describing presence of HAVE_STRSTR option.
+
+1991-05-19 David J. MacKenzie <djm@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * port.c (get_date): Renamed from getdate, to avoid SVR4 conflict.
+ * tar.c: Call get_date instead of getdate.

+ * README: updated for 1.10 beta release.
+
+1991-04-02 Michael I Bushnell <mib@godwin>
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): HPUX's st_blocks is in 1024 byte units
+ instead of 512 like the rest of the world, so I special cased
+ it.
+ * tar.c: Undo Noah's changes.
+
+1991-04-01 Noah Friedman <friedman@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ (This ought to be temporary until things are fixed properly. )
+
+ * tar.c: (struct option long_options): flag for "sparse" zero if
+ compiling under hpux.
+ tar.c: (functon options): case 'S' is a no-op if compiling under

+
+ * tar.h: new variable tape_length.

+
+1991-03-15 David J. MacKenzie <djm@geech.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * rtape_lib.c [USG && !HAVE_MTIO]: Define NO_RMTIOCTL automatically.
+ (_rmt_rexec): Temporarily re-open stdin and stdout to

+ Reported by Pascal Meheut.
+
+1991-03-08 Michael I Bushnell <mib@wookumz.ai.mit.edu>

+
+1991-01-09 Michael I Bushnell <mib@pogo.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c (where_is_data): Rewritten to be better, and then
+ #ifdef-ed out.
+ (deal_with_sparse): Severly pruned. Now we write or don't
+ write only complete blocks, not worrying about partial blocks.
+ This simplifies calculations, removes bugs, and elides the
+ second scan through the block. The first was zero_record, the
+ second was where_is_data.
+
+1991-01-07 Michael I Bushnell <mib@wookumz.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c (deal_with_sparse): Second computation (for short
+ reads) of numbytes increment had subtraction backwards.
+ Need to handle calling where_is_data better when we did a
+ short read (it might go past the end of the read), also, set
+ sparsearray[...].offset in this case too.
+
+1991-01-04 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c: Return a special error code if the archive

+ the one specified on the command line.
+
+1991-01-02 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * gnu.c: Prepend the current directory to the gnu_dumpfile, so that
+ -C's won't affect where the output goes. (sigh.)
+
+1990-12-18 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * gnu.c: Don't complain if the gnudumpfile we're reading info
+ from doesn't exist.
+
+ * create.c: Write out gnudumpfile after finishing writing the archive.

+ * Add +confirmation alias for +interactive.
+
+1990-12-04 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (check_exclude): Don't let MUMBLE match MUMBLE.c or
+ fooMUMBLE but only foo/MUMBLE.
+
+ * mangle.c: New file.
+ * create.c, extract.c: According changes.
+
+ * extract.c: Don't complain when extracting an already existing link.
+ Don't complain when extracting a directory iff it already exists.
+ Don't ad u+wx to directories when running as root.
+ Reported by Chip Salzenberg.
+
+ * gnu.c: Make +listed-incremental work.
+ Reported by Chip Salzenberg.
+
+ * port.c: Add the F_FREESP emulation of the ftruncate syscall.

+
+ * tar.c: Rename +volume to +label.
+
+1990-11-16 David J. MacKenzie <djm@apple-gunkies>
+
+ * tar.c (describe): Include the default values for -b and -f
+ (as set in the Makefile) in the message.
+
+1990-11-15 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * extract.c (extract_archive): Do the utime() call before the
+ chmod() call, 'cuz some versons of utime() trash the file's mode
+ bits.
+
+ * list.c (read_and): Call do_something on volume headers and
+ multivol files even if they don't match the names we're looking
+ for, etc.
+
+1990-11-06 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * port.c (un-quote-string): Don't try to write a null if there's
+ already one there.
+
+1990-11-01 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c (new_volume): fflush(msg_file) before reading for
+ confirmation on new volume. On EOF or error, print error msg and
+ abort.
+
+1990-10-29 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * getdate.y: Use new version of getdate().
+
+ * tar.c (name_add): Use sizeof(char *) instead of sizeof(int)
+
+ * README: Give the correct return address.
+
+1990-10-25 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ rtape_lib.c [NO_RMTIOCTL]: Instead of RMTIOCTL, so it is on by default.
+
+ rmt.h [NO_REMOTE]: Add _isrmt() #define.
+
+ gnu.c: Add forward reference for add_dir_name().
+\f
+1990-10-16 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ Version 1.09 --- New -G file implementation of gnu-dump stuff.
+
+ * tar.c (name_add): Get the calls to ck_realloc and ck_malloc right.
+
+1990-10-11 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * gnu.c: Fix A couple of typos.
+
+1990-09-19 David J. MacKenzie <djm@apple-gunkies>
+
+ * getdate.y [USG && !DAYLIGHT_MISSING] (ftime): Use `daylight'.
+
+1990-09-17 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * gnu.c (gnu_restore): Don't use a passed char* for the
+ file name, use skipcrud+head->header.name, just like everything
+ else does. This means that gnu_restore will still work with
+ small buffers, etc.
+
+1990-09-13 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (add_exclude): Don't bus-error if the exclude file doesn't
+ end with a newline.
+
+1990-09-09 David J. MacKenzie <djm@albert.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile (dist): Remove .fname when done.
+
+1990-09-06 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mti.edu>

+ done with it.
+
+1990-09-04 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile: Include gnu.c in dist
+
+ * gnu.c: Move add_dir above read_dir_file so that cc doesn't
+ complain about add_dir returning void.
+
+1990-09-02 David J. MacKenzie <djm@apple-gunkies>
+
+ * getdate.y: Declare some more functions and add storage
+ classes where omitted to shut compiler up.
+ [USG] (ftime): Don't use extern var `daylight'; appears that
+ some systems don't have it.
+
+1990-08-29 David J. MacKenzie <djm@apple-gunkies>
+
+ * getdate.y (lookup): In the code that allows `Aug.' to be
+ recognized as `Aug', don't chop off the final `.' from words
+ like `a.m.', so they can be recognized.
+
+1990-08-16 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c (open_archive): If -O, write verbosity to stderr
+ instead of stdout.
+
+1990-08-10 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * getdate.y: Handle an explicit DST in the input string.
+ Reported by Per Foreby.
+
+1990-07-16 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c: rename -g -G +incremental, +listed-imcremental, etc.
+
+1990-07-13 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c: Make +newer and +newer-mtime work according to their names.
+
+ * gnu.c: If +newer or +newer-mtime, use the time specified on the
+ command line.
+
+ * buffer.c, create.c: Add test to see if dimwit is trying to
+ archive the archive.
+
+ * tar.c (long_options[]): Re-ordered, so that groups of similar
+ options are next to each other... I think.
+
+ (describe): Modified to more closely reflect reality.
+
+1990-07-06 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c: Add compile-time option for SYS V (?) style
+ tape-drive names /dev/rmt/{n}[lmh]
+
+ * tar.c: Fix getopt-style stuff so that -C always works correctly.
+
+ * gnu.c, tar.c: Make filename to -G optional.
+
+ * {all over}: Replace some fprintf(stderr...) calls with calls
+ to msg().
+
+ * port.c: Make -Dmumble_MSG option on command line override
+ internal assumptions.
+
+ * Makefile: Mention -Dmumble_MSG options
+
+1990-07-06 David J. MacKenzie <djm@apple-gunkies>
+
+ * tar.c (options): Don't change `c' if it is 0, as getopt now
+ handles that internally.
+
+1990-07-02 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * gnu.c (new file): Moved all the f_gnudump stuff here where we
+ can keep track of it easier. Also made -G take a file name where
+ it stores the inode information about directories so that we can
+ detect moved directores.
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Changed slightly to work with the new
+ f_gnudump.
+
+ * tar.c: Moved the f_gnudump stuff to gnu.c
+
+ * tar.c, extract.c: Added the +do-chown option, which forces tar
+ to always try to chown the created files to their original owners.
+
+ * version.c: New version 1.09
+
+1990-06-24 David J. MacKenzie <djm@albert.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c: Change ifdefs for directory library header
+ selection to be like the ones in tar.c.
+ * Makefile [Xenix]: Link with -ldir to get the dirent.h
+ directory library.
+
+1990-06-07 David J. MacKenzie <djm@albert.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile, buffer.c, diffarch.c [HAVE_MTIO]: Instead of MTIO, as
+ SCO Xenix defines 'MTIO' for an incompatible tape driver system in
+ a file included by termio.h.
+ * tar.h: Don't define size_t for Xenix.
+
+1990-06-05 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Only print the
+ "... is on a different filesystem..." if f_verbose is on.
+ also add a case for S_IFSOCK and treat it like a FIFO.
+ (Not sure if that's the right thing to do or not, but it's better
+ than all those Unknown File Type msgs.)
+
+1990-05-31 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * port.c [sparc]: Use instead of SPARC since the lowercase version
+ is defined, and the uppercase one isn't.
+
+1990-05-22 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * port.c (ck_malloc): if size==0 pretend size=1
+ (ck_realloc): if(!ptr) call ck_malloc instead.
+
+1990-05-15 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * diffarch.c (diff_archive): If not f_absolute_paths, and attempt
+ to open a file listed in the archive fails, try /filename also.
+ This will allow diff to open the wrong file if both /filename and
+ filename exist, but there's nothing we can do about that.
+
+1990-05-11 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile: Describe new -DMTIO option.
+
+ * buffer.c, diffarch.c: Change ifdefs slightly, so that -DMTIO
+ will include sys/mtio.h even if USG is defined. This is for HPUX
+ and similar BSD/USG crossovers.
+
+1990-05-08 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * update.c (update_archive): Call reset_eof() when appropriate.
+
+ * buffer.c (reset_eof): New function, that turns of EOF flag, and
+ re-sets the ar_record and ar_last pointers. This will allow
+ 'tar rf non-existant-file' to not core-dump.
+
+1990-05-04 David J. MacKenzie <djm@albert.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c: Recognize the +sparse option. It was documented, but
+ only the short form (-S) was actually recognized.
+
+1990-04-17 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * create.c: Don't access location 0 if ->dir_contents is null.
+
+1990-04-11 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c (flush_archive, close_archive, new_volume): Always
+ check the return value of rmtclose(), and only give a warning msg
+ if it is <0. Some device drivers (including Sun floppy disk, and
+ HP streaming tape) return -1 after an IO error (or something like
+ that.)
+
+1990-03-23 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@mole.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (long_options): Make it so +append +extract +list +update
+ +catenate and +delete don't take arguments.
+
+1990-03-12 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c (open_archive, fl_write): Set the mtime of the volume
+ header to the current time.
+
+1990-03-07 Jay Fenlason <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c Fix +compress-block A two character patch from
+ Juha Sarlin.
+ Replace #ifdef __GNU__ with #ifdef __STDC__.
+ (new_volume): If open of new archive fails, ask again, as it
+ probably is user error.
+
+ * tar.c: Replace #ifdef __GNU__ with #ifdef __STDC__
+
+ * port.c: Clean up #ifdef and #defines a bit.
+ (quote_copy_string): Sometimes the malloc'd buffer would be up to
+ two characters too short.
+
+ * extract.c (extract_archive): Don't declare ind static.
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Don't declare index_offset static.
+
+ * diffarch.c: Remove diff_name variable, and always use
+ head->header.name, which will always work, unlike diff_name, which
+ becomes trash when the next block is read in.
+
+1990-03-01 Jay Fenlason <hack@wookumz.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile: Mention the -NO_REMOTE option.
+ * port.c [i386]: Fix typo, and define WANT_FTRUNCATE.
+
+1990-02-26 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@pogo.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * getdate.y: Declare yylex and yyerror as static.
+ #define yyparse to getdate_yyparse.
+
+1990-02-25 David J. MacKenzie <djm@albert.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c: Remove +old option, since it is a valid abbreviation of
+ +old-archive, which does the same thing.
+ (describe): A few small cleanups in message.
+
+1990-02-05 Jay Fenlason <hack@wookumz>
+
+ * port.c [sparc]: Define LOSING_MSG, since doprnt_msg doesn't work.
+ [WANT_GETWD]: Fix typo.
+\f
+1990-01-26 Jay Fenlason <hack@wookumz>
+
+ Version 1.08 --- Sparse file support added. Also various other
+ features.
+
+ * diffarch.c (compare_chunk): Include correct arguments in
+ a call to fprintf() for an error msg.
+ (compare_chunks, compare_dir): First argument is a long, not an int.
+
+ * tar.c (options): Use tar variable (argv[0]) as the name to print
+ in an error msg, instead of a constant "tar".
+ (confirm): Use external variable char TTY_NAME[] for name of file
+ to open for confirmation input.
+
+ * buffer.c (new_volume): Ditto.
+
+ * port.c: Add declaration for TTY_NAME[].
+
+ * rmt.h: Add long declarations for lseek() and __rmt_lseek();
+
+1990-01-23 Jay Fenlason <hack@wookumz>
+
+ * tar.c, create.c: Create the +newer-mtime option, which is like
+ +newer, but only looks for files whose mtime is newer than the
+ given date.
+
+ * rtape_lib.c [USG]: Make *both* instances of signal-handler stuff
+ use void (*foo)().
+
+1990-01-11 Jay Fenlason <hack@wookumz>
+
+ * getdate.y : Parse European dates of the form YYMMDD.
+ In ftime(): Init timezone by calling localtime(), and remember that
+ timezone is in seconds, but we want timeb->timezone to be in minutes.
+ Reported by Jörgen Haegg.
+
+ * rtape_lib.c (__rmt_open): Also look for /usr/bsd/rsh.
+ Declare signal handler as returning void instead of int if USG is
+ defined.
+
+ * port.c: Declare WANT_GETWD for SGI 4-D IRIS.
+
+ * Makefile: Include defines for SGI 4D version.
+ Reported by Mike Muuss.
+
+ * buffer.c (fl_read): Work properly on broken Ultrix systems where
+ read() returns -1 with errno==ENOSPC on end of tape. Correctly go
+ on to the next volume if f_multivol.
+
+ * list.c (list_archive, print_header): Flush msg_file after
+ printing messages.
+
+ * port.c: Delete unused references to alloca().
+ Don't crash if malloc() returns zero in quote_copy_string.
+ Flush stderr in msg() and msg_perror().
+
+ * tar.c: Flush msg_file after printing confirmation msg.
+
+1990-01-10 David J. MacKenzie <djm@hobbes.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (main): Change -help option and references to it to +help,
+ and remove suggestion to run info (which is unreleased, so not
+ likely to be of any help).
+
+1990-01-09 Jay Fenlason <hack @wookumz>
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Close file descriptor if start_header()
+ fails.
+ (dump_file): Change test for `./'-ness to not think that `.' {any
+ character} is a `./'.
+ Reported by Piercarlo Grandi.
+
+ * diffarch.c (diff_init): Print correct number of bytes in error
+ message.
+
+1990-01-09 David J. MacKenzie <djm@hobbes.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile: Add comment at top noting that two source files also
+ contain #defines that might need to be changed by hand.
+
+ * create.c, diffarch.c, extract.c: Change L_SET to 0 in lseek
+ calls, because only BSD defines it.
+ * create.c (dump_file) [BSD42]: Make sparse file checking code
+ conditional because it uses st_blocks, which the other systems lack.
+
+1990-01-02 Jay Fenlason <hack@gnu>
+
+ * port.c (quote_copy_string): Fix so it doesn't scramble memory if
+ the last character is non-printable.
+ Reported by Kian-Tat Lim.
+
+1989-12-19 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@pogo>
+
+ * port.c [BSD42]: Define DOPRNT_MSG.
+ tar.h [BSD42]: Do not prototype msg{,_perror}.
+
+1989-12-08 Jay Fenlason <hack@gnu>
+
+ * create.c (dump_file): Remove typo in msg.
+
+1989-12-01 David J. MacKenzie <djm@trix>
+
+ * Makefile: Remove comments referring to certain systems lacking
+ getopt, since it is now provided always and needed by all systems.
+
+ * port.c: Remove copy of getopt.c, as it is now linked in
+ separately to always get the current version.
+
+ * tar.c: Rename +cat-tars option to +catenate or +concatenate,
+ and +local-filesystem to +one-file-system (preferred by rms
+ and used in GNU cp for the same purpose).
+ (describe): Reflect changes.
+
+1989-11-28 David J. MacKenzie <djm@hobbes.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * port.c: Move declaration of alloca into #else /* sparc */
+ so it will compile on sparcs.
+
+1989-11-27 David J. MacKenzie <djm@hobbes.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (options): Remove -version option (replaced by +version).
+ (describe): Mention long options.
+
+1989-11-25 David J. MacKenzie <djm@hobbes.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * getoldopt.c (getoldopt): Make `opt_index' argument a pointer to
+ an int, not char.
+
+ * tar.c: Modify long options per rms's suggestions:
+ Make preserve-permissions an alias for same-permissions.
+ Make preserve-order an alias for same-order.
+ Define preserve to mean both of those combined.
+ Make old an alias for old-archive.
+ Make portability an alias for old-archive, also.
+ Rename sym-links to dereference.
+ Rename gnudump to incremental.
+ Rename filename to file.
+ Make compare an alias for diff. Leave diff but prefer compare.
+ Rename blocking-factor to block-size.
+ Rename chdir to directory.
+ Make uncompress an alias for compress.
+ Rename confirm to interactive.
+ Make get an alias for extract.
+ Rename volume-header to volume.
+
+ Also make +version an alias for -version.
+
+ (options): Shorten code that interprets long options by using
+ the equivalent short options' code. This also makes it tons
+ easier to change the long options.
+
+ (describe): Make usage message more internally consistent
+ stylistically.
+
+1989-11-20 hack@ai.mit.edu
+
+ * list.c (read_and): Call check_exclude() to see if the files
+ should be skipped on extract or list.
+
+1989-11-09 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@hobbes.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c (fl_read): Fix typos in error message
+ "tar EOF not on block boundary".
+
+1989-10-23 <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (long_options[]): Add an option for blocked compression.
+
+1989-10-19 <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * buffer.c (writeerror): Print a more useful error msg.
+
+1989-09-27 <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (main): Mention "tar -help" if the luser types a non-workable
+ set of options.
+
+1989-09-11 <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (options): Have -F correctly set info_script.
+
+1989-08-29 <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile Include ChangeLog in tar.tar and tar.tar.Z
+
+1989-08-28 <hack@ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tar.c (options) Made -F imply -M.
+ Also remind tar that the -f option takes an argument!
+
+ * Modified -F option to make it do what (I think) it
+ should. e.g, if you say -F, tar won't send a msg to
+ msg_file and wait for a <return> It'll just run the program
+ it was given, and when the prog returns, the new tape had
+ *better* be ready...
+
+ * buffer.c (open_archive): Give error message and abort if
+ the luser didn't give an archive name.
+
+1989-08-25 Joy Kendall <jak@hobbes>
+
+ * Added code to make a new option to run a specified script at
+ the end of each tape in a multi-volume backup. Changed: tar.c:
+ made new switch, -F, and new long-named option, "info-script".
+ Code is where you would expect.
+ * tar.h: added flag f_run_script_at_end, and an extern char *
+ called info_script, which optarg gets set to.
+ * buffer.c (new_volume): if f_run_script_at_end is set, we give
+ info_script to system(), otherwise we do what we've always done.
+
+1989-08-24 Joy Kendall <jak@spiff>
+(These changes made over the course of 6/89 - 8/89)
+
+ * diffarch.c: diff_archive: Added switches for LF_SPARSE in the
+ case statements that needed it. Also, skip any extended headers
+ if we need to when we skip over a file. (need to change the bit
+ about, if the size doesn't agree AND the file is NOT sparse,
+ then there's a discrepancy, because I added another field to
+ the header which should be able to deal with the sizes): If
+ the file is sparse, call the added routine "diff_sparse_files"
+ to compare. Also added routine "fill_in_sparse_array".
+
+ * extract.c: extract_archive: added the switch LF_SPARSE to the
+ case statement as needed, and code to treat the sparse file.
+ At label "again_file", modified opening the file to see if we
+ should have O_APPEND be one of the modes. Added code at label
+ "extract_file" to call the new routine "extract_sparse_file"
+ when we have an LF_SPARSE flag.
+
+ Note: really should erase the commented-out code in there,
+ because it's confusing.
+
+ * update.c: made sure that if a file needed to be "skipped"
+ over, it would check to see if the linkflag was sparse, and if
+ so, would then make sure to skip over any "extended headers"
+ that might come after the header itself. Do so by calling
+ "skip_extended_headers".
+
+ * create.c: create_archive: added code to detect a sparse file
+ when in the long case statement. Added ways to detect extended
+ headers, and label "extend" (ack! should get rid of that, is
+ atrocious). Call the new routine "finish_sparse_file" if the
+ linkflag is LF_SPARSE to write the info to the tape. Also added
+ routines "init_sparsearray", "deal_with_sparse", "clear_buffer",
+ "where_is_data", "zero_record", and "find_new_file_size".
+
+ * tar.h: Added the #define's SPARSE_EXT_HDR and SPARSE_IN_HDR.
+ Added the struct sparse and the struct sp_array. Added the
+ linkflag LF_SPARSE. Changed the tar header in several ways:
+ - added an array of struct sparse's SPARSE_IN_HDR long
+ - added a char flag isextended
+ - added a char string realsize to store the true size of a sparse file
+ Added another choice to the union record called a struct
+ extended_header, which is an array of 21 struct sparse's and a
+ char isextended flag. Added flag f_sparse_file to list of flags.
+
+ * tar.c: added long-named options to make tar compatible with
+ getopt_long, changed Makefile.
+
+1989-03-03 David MacKenzie (edf at rocky2.rockefeller.edu)
+(I'm not completely sure all these have been integrated -- FP.)
+
+ * buffer.c [USG]: ifdef'd out #include <sys/file.h>.
+ (close_archive): SysV doesn't have ftruncate, so substituted
+ fmtwrite (just copied the code for MS-DOS).
+ * create.c: Unos lacks <sys/sysmacros.h> so provided a substitute.
+ (start_header): Only strip leading paths if f_relative_paths is true.
+ * extract.c:
+ (extract_archive): Only strip leading paths if
+ f_relative_paths is true. Because the Unos filesystem has
+ only one timestamp, moved the utime call to after the chown
+ and chmod calls.
+ * getdate.y: Don't define ftime if Unos.
+ * list.c: Defined size_t for Unos. [USG]: Don't include <sys/file.h>.
+ Define <sys/sysmacros> stuff manually for Unos.
+ (decode_header): Add braces around switch cases; some compilers
+ require them.
+ (print_header): Changed UGSWIDTH from 11 to 25 because the smaller
+ value made tape listings of files owned by more than one user
+ gradually get wider, making them hard to read.
+ * port.c: Don't include <sys/file.h> if SysV. Define
+ size_t for Unos.
+ (mkdir): Add code to support Unos makedir sys call.
+ (getopt): Use malloc instead of alloca, because tar doesn't
+ use alloca anywhere else and many systems lack it. A few other
+ changes from the current version of getopt.c incorporated.
+ * rtape_lib.c: Undefine RMTIOCTL. Doesn't seem to be needed,
+ and can't compile on Unos/SysV with it defined. Might need to be
+ ifdef'd.
+ * tar.c: Alias addname to add_name and rmdir to deldir on Unos
+ due to C library weirdness.
+ (options): Recognize new -P option to set f_relative paths.
+ (describe): Clean up error message and add -P description.
+ * tar.h: Add variable, f_relative_paths, to cause tar to strip
+ leading `/' characters in pathnames during create and extract.
+ * tar.texinfo: Fixed a couple of typos, detected by texi2roff.
+ * update.c: Simulate <sys/sysmacros.h> for Unos.
+\f
+Previous releases by Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
+
+ * Version 1.07 --- New version to go on beta tape with GCC 1.35.
+ Better USG support. Also support for __builtin_alloca if we're
+ compiling with GCC.
+
+ * diffarch.c: Include the correct header files so MTIOCTOP
+ is defined.
+ * tar.c: Don't print the verbose list of options unless
+ given -help. The list of options is *way* too long.
+
+ * Version 1.06 --- [__STDC__]: Use STDC_MSG.
+ ENXIO meand end-of-volume in archive (for the UNIX PC)
+ Added break after volume-header case (line 440) extract.c
+ Added patch to rtape_lib.c (reported by Arnold Robbins).
+ Added f_absolute_paths option.
+ Deleted refereces to UN*X manual sections (dump(8), etc)
+ Fixed to not core-dump on illegal options
+ Modified msg_perror to call perror("") instead of perror(0)
+ patch so -X - works
+ Fixed tar.c so 'tar cf - -C dir' doesn't core-dump
+ tar.c (name_match): Fixed to chdir() to the appropriate
+ directory if the matching name's change_dir is set. This
+ makes tar xv -C foo {files} work.
+
+ * Version 1.05 --- A fix to make confirm() work when the archive is
+ on stdin; include 'extern FILE *msg_file;' in pr_mkdir().
+ * tar.h [__STDC__]: Fix to work.
+
+ Added to port.c: mkdir() ftruncate(): Removed: lstat()
+ Fixed -G to work with -X
+ Another fix to tar.texinfo
+ Changed tar.c to say argv[0]":you must specify exactly ...
+ buffer.c: modified child_open() to keep tar from hanging when
+ it is done reading/writing a compressed archive
+ added fflush(msg_file) before printing error messages
+ create.c: fixed to make link_names non-absolute
+
+ * Version 1.04 --- Added functions msg() and msg_perror(): Modified
+ all the files to call them. Also checked that all (I hope) calls
+ to msg_perror() have a valid errno value.
+ (modified anno() to leave errno alone), etc.
+ Re-fixed the -X option. This time for sure...
+ re-modified the msg stuff. flushed anno() completely
+ Modified the directory stuff so it should work on sysV boxes
+ added ftime() to getdate.y
+ Fixed un_quote_string() so it won't wedge on \" Also fixed
+ \ddd (like \123, etc)
+ More fixes to tar.texinfo
+
+ * Version 1.03 --- Fixed buffer.c so 'tar tzf NON_EXISTENT_FILE'
+ returns an error message instead of hanging forever.
+ More fixes to tar.texinfo.
+
+ * Version 1.02 --- Fixed tar.c so 'tar -h' and 'tar -v' don't cause
+ core dump. Also fixed the 'usage' message to be more up-to-date.
+ * diffarch.c [!MTIOCTOP]: Fixed so verify should compile.
+
+ * Version 1.01 --- Fixed typoes in tar.texinfo.
+ Fixed a bug in the #define for rmtcreat().
+ Fixed the -X option to not call realloc() of 0.
+
+ * Version 1.00 --- version.c added. -version option added.
+ Installed new version of the remote-tape library.
+ Added -help option.
