to parse them as numbers. In particular, this makes the

Finally, I've included an update to the test harness
to exercise the new numeric cases for -R.

In particular, this fixes freesbie2, which uses
-R 0:0 to copy a bunch of files so that the result

and gid specified by -R when in passthrough mode.
Thanks to Dominique Goncalves for reporting this
regression.

* Lots of new tests.
* New -n / --numeric-uid-gid option
* More sanity-checking of arguments
* Various Windows portability improvements
* Sync up version number to 2.7.0
A new implementation of cpio that uses libarchive as it's back-end
archiving/dearchiving infrastructure. Includes test harness;
"make check" in the bsdcpio directory to build and run the test
harness.
