Sun Dec 14 07:47:44 1997 Peter Hawkins (peter@clari.net.au)
* version.c: Released version 1.11.3.
* implemented the -n / --norecurse option
Thu Mar 25 13:32:40 1993 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* version.c: Released version 1.11.2.
* Makefile.in (dist): Do the link differently; some of the
files have changed filesystems which makes it more complex.
* Makefile.in (dist, shar): Use gzip instead of compress.
* create.c (dump_file): Test for curdev==-1, not curdev<0.
Some losing NFS systems give negative device numbers
sometimes.
Thu Mar 25 11:55:15 1993 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* level-0, level-1 (TAR_PART1): Use `--block-size', not just
`--block', which is now ambiguous.
Wed Mar 24 22:12:51 1993 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.
Sat Mar 20 00:20:05 1993 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.
Fri Mar 19 15:05:15 1993 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* backup-specs (VOLNO_FILE): Removed abusive comment by Noah.
* buffer.c (new_volume): Write the global volume number to the
volno file before running the info script, so that the script
can look at it.
Thu Mar 18 20:11:54 1993 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.
Wed Mar 17 10:30:58 1993 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (describe, long_options): Changed --compress-block to
--block-compress.
(options): Fixed f_compress_block sanity check error message
to give the correct name of the option.
Tue Mar 16 14:52:40 1993 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* extract.c (extract_archive): case LF_DIR: Do chown when
necessary. Don't bother jumping to set_filestat for
f_modified; repeat the chmod code here. Replace `break',
deleted on 2 September 1992.
* tar.c (describe, long_options, options): Added gzip options
and use-compress-program option.
* tar.h: Added new compression options.
* buffer.c (child_open, open_archive): Use new compression options.
* create.c (start_header): Only mask off high bits when
creating old-style archives.
* list.c (decode_header): Mask off potentially misleading
high bits from the mode when reading headers.
Mon Mar 15 11:34:34 1993 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* extract.c (extract_archive): Put arguments in the right
order for error message.
* create.c (deal_with_sparse): if the last byte was null, we
didn't write it out.
* gnu.c, create.c, extract.c, diffarch.c, list.c throughout:
Replace malloc calls with ck_malloc and realloc with ck_realloc.
* tar.c (describe): Improve doc for -L.
* tar.c (name_next): Don't apply exclusion to explicitly named
files.
* tar.c (long_options, describe): Added new-volume-script as
an alias for info-script.
* extract.c (extract_archive): LF_DUMPDIR case; misplaced paren.
* extract.c (extract_archive): extract_file case, first if,
include space for null in namelen computation.
* extract.c (extract_sparse_file): Use value returned by write
to properly create error message.
* create.c (create_archive): Don't assume we have anything to
dump.
* buffer.c (open_archive): Set current_file_name for the
volume header so that verbose listings work properly.
* Makefile.in (realclean): Added getdate.c.
Thu Jan 14 23:38:44 1993 David J. MacKenzie (djm@kropotkin.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c: Include fnmatch.h after port.h to make sure we get our FNM_*
(e.g. on HPUX 8).
Tue Nov 24 08:30:54 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (addname), gnu.c (read_dir_file): Use HAVE_GETCWD, not USG.
* port.h, rmt.h: Use HAVE_STRING_H, not USG.
* port.h: Add dir header decls.
* create.c, gnu.c: Use SYSNDIR, SYSDIR, and NDIR
instead of BSD42 and USG. Rename DP_NAMELEN to NLENGTH.
Use `struct dirent' instead of `struct direct'.
* create.c, gnu.c, tar.c: Remove dir header decls.
Wed Nov 18 15:31:30 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c: Change FNM_TARPATH to FNM_LEADING_DIR to match change
in fnmatch.[ch].
Wed Oct 21 00:52:24 1992 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).
Thu Oct 15 03:33:28 1992 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* level-0, level-1: remove $LOGFILE.tmp files before exiting.

* Makefile.in (SRC3): Add getdate.c, for systems without bison/yacc
(like MS-DOS).
* diffarch.c (diff_sparse_files): Add missing arg to fprintf calls.
* extract.c (extract_archive, restore_saved_dir_info),
buffer.c (child_open), list.c (decode_header, print_header):
Delete unused vars.
* port.c [__MSDOS__]: Have strstr, rename, and mkdir. Don't
define ck_pipe.
* buffer.c, tar.c (init_volume_number, closeout_volume_number),
create.c (write_long): Declare as void, not int, since they
don't return a value.
Thu Sep 24 00:06:02 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* level-0, level-1 (TAR_PART1): remove --atime-preserve
because of a total screw.
Tue Sep 22 14:15:48 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

this was a switch.
Tue Sep 22 08:33:16 1992 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* create.c, port.h: indented #pragma directives with 1 space.
Fri Sep 18 14:15:17 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* All source files: re indented using GNU indent.
* rtapelib.c (__rmt_read): Only read the amount left in the
buffer; otherwise a broken rmt server (which puts too much
data out) could overwrite past our buffer.
Thu Sep 17 14:08:58 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* create.c: Throughout, use struct utimbuf rather than array
of longs.
* configure.in: Check for getpwuid and getgrgid.
* 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'.
Tue Sep 15 14:49:48 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* version.c: Released version 1.11.1.
* Makefile (AUX): Added NEWS.
* Makefile.in (rmt): Added $(LIBS).
* configure.in: Added tests for libraries needed on Solaris.
* mangle.c (extract_mangle): Null terminate link name for
losing archives missing it.
* Makefile.in: added target and rule for getdate.c: getdate.y;
some makes don't have one built in.
Mon Sep 14 16:23:15 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (options, main): Advise use of --help rather than
+help.
* 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.
* configure.in: Define BSD in the presence of /sdmach or
/../../mach.
* diffarch.c, buffer.c: Declare valloc as void* rather than
char*.
* Makefile.in: Don't install info files.

* gnu.c (read_dir_file): Missing braces after if.
* names.c: Add include of <stdio.h>,
* create.c (start_header): Set current_file_name so that
print_header (used for verbose create) works properly.
(dump_file): Set current_link_name when setting up symlink
and hardlink records.
Fri Sep 11 01:05:52 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* fnmatch.[ch]: New files.

Thu Sep 10 23:19:30 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* buffer.c, tar.c: Remove redundant decls of getenv, rindex.
* Makefile.in: Add uninstall target.
Define libdir instead of hardcoding /etc for installing rmt.
Thu Sep 10 13:06:03 1992 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.
Thu Sep 10 06:09:18 1992 Noah Friedman (friedman@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

Tue Sep 8 16:13:41 1992 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.
Thu Sep 3 12:41:08 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* create.c (write_long): New function.
(dump_file): When writing link records or symlink records, use
new write_long function instead of mangling when the link
target is too long.

names.
* extract.c (saverec): Recognize LF_LONGNAME and LF_LONGLINK.
(saverec): Throughout, use longname and longlink if they are set.
Wed Sep 2 14:41:13 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

printing 0 when the gid or uid is null.
* list.c (decode_header): patch from Chris Arthur to use the
gid field when the gid is empty, and similarly for uid.
* 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.
This patch is from Chris Arthur (csa@pennies.sw.stratus.com).
Mon Aug 31 15:39:55 1992 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.
* rmt.h (_remdev): Don't require /dev/ to be in remote archive
names; obey new force-local flag.

* 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.
Fri Aug 28 17:42:13 1992 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.
Sun Jul 19 02:13:46 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* port.h: Try to prevent redefining major.
* port.c: HAVE_BZERO -> minix. Fix a typo.
* list.c (decode_header): Recognize the final POSIX.1 magic as
well as the early draft magic for ustar.
* create.c (start_header): Create a final POSIX.1 magic string
instead of an early draft string for ustar.
* tar.h (TMAGIC): Remove the trailing blanks.
* rmt.c, rtapelib.c: Use POSIX and STDC headers if available.
* rmt.h: Declare the external functions defined in rtapelib.c.
Tue Jul 14 00:44:37 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@apple-gunkies.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* pathmax.h: New file.
* port.h: Include it.
* create.c (create_archive): Allocate PATH_MAX instead of
NAME_MAX for temporary buffer so we don't have to figure out
what NAME_MAX is (portably).
Fri Jul 10 08:30:42 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* gnu.c (collect_and_sort_names): write_dir_file has no argument.
* level-0, level-1: Avoid silly Sun awk lossage.
Mon Jul 6 20:11:32 1992 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.
Fri Jul 3 15:16:42 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* buffer.c, diffarch.c, update.c, rtapelib.c: Change NO_MTIO to
HAVE_SYS_MTIO_H.

Thu May 7 23:44:35 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@apple-gunkies.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* gnu.c (add_dir_name): Check for return of NULL from get_dir_contents;
see djm's change of Fri Jul 26 01:12:58 1991.
Mon May 4 22:50:57 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.h: Make comments for option names say -- instead of +.
Thu Apr 30 03:09:16 1992 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)
Wed Apr 29 14:23:10 1992 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c, tar.t: Added +volno-file option.
buffer.c: New functions init_volume_number,
closeout_volume_number.
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, from
Karl Berry.
list.c (read_and): Implemented show-omitted-dirs.
* 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.

create.c (dump_file): Implemented +ignore-failed-read.
* create.c (finish_sparse_file): Commented out debugging printf.
* 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.
Tue Apr 28 13:21:42 1992 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.
Fri Apr 24 10:41:13 1992 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.
Wed Apr 22 02:16:14 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* rtapelib.c: SIGTYPE -> RETSIGTYPE.
Mon Mar 9 22:42:05 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

Tue Dec 24 00:03:03 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c, gnu.c, extract.c, create.c, port.h, rmt.h: Change
POSIX ifdefs to HAVE_UNISTD_H and _POSIX_VERSION.
Fri Dec 20 13:50:38 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* testpad.c (main): flush stderr so perror and fprintf
cooperate right.
Wed Dec 18 16:52:42 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* port.h: Check MAJOR_IN_MKDEV and MAJOR_IN_SYSMACROS to find
where to get major, minor and makedev.
* create.c, list.c, update.c: Don't check USG to include
sys/sysmacros.h.
Thu Dec 12 21:57:10 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* mangle.c (extract_mangle): Correctly null terminate name of
link target.
Thu Nov 21 07:44:18 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at 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.
Sat Nov 16 01:37:45 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.h: Use new criteria for STDC version of msg.
Sat Nov 2 21:31:57 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* create.c, gnu.c, tar.c: Use DIRENT instead of NDIR to select
between dirent.h and ndir.h for USG.
* port.c: Rename WANT_FOO to FOO_MISSING to make sharing code
and configure script with other utilities easier. Use
VPRINTF_MISSING and DOPRNT_MISSING instead of FOO_MSG to
select error reporting routines.
Thu Oct 17 20:19:02 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* level-0: Repair damage from previous mod: stdin to rsh must
be the terminal or tar's questions lose.
Sat Aug 31 15:05:27 1991 Noah Friedman (friedman at 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.
Thu Aug 29 00:54:01 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (long_options). Fixed info-script long option.
Mon Aug 26 16:53:50 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at pogo.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* configure, Makefile.in: Only put $< in Makefiles if VPATH
is being used, because older makes don't understand it.
Mon Aug 19 01:47:57 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* create.c: Indent '#pragma alloca' so non-ANSI compilers
don't choke on it.
Wed Aug 14 14:10:43 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.
Fri Aug 2 00:41:08 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.

Makefile.in in that directory. Set VPATH if srcdir is not `.'.
* Makefile.in: Add `prefix'.
(tar.info): New target.
Tue Jul 30 17:08:04 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at apple-gunkies)
* configure: NEED_TZSET has become FTIME_MISSING.
Mon Jul 29 19:23:10 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wombat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* port.c [F_CHSIZE]: Additional version.
Sat Jul 27 22:27:47 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wombat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* rmt.h: Clean up ifdefs.
* makefile.pc: Fix typo.
port.h: Change MSDOS to __MSDOS__.
[__MSDOS__]: Define off_t. Include io.h and not sys/param.h.
[__TURBOC__]: Use void * and don't define const.
Fri Jul 26 01:12:58 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at bleen)
* buffer.c: Rename `eof' to `hit_eof' to avoid conflict with an
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.
* msd_dir.c [__TURBOC__]: Include stdlib.h.
* rmt.h: lseek returns off_t, not long.
* tar.c (describe): -X is +exclude-from, not +exclude.
(names_notfound): Free memory only if amiga, not !unix.
* tar.h, tar.c: Add +null option to make -T read
null-terminated filenames (such as those produced by GNU find
-print0), and disable -C option.
This guarantees that odd filenames will get archived.
* tar.c (read_name_from_file): New function.
(name_next): Call it instead of fgets.
Wed Jul 24 11:17:48 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* create.c [_AIX]: Declare alloca.
* buffer.c (open_archive): Check for successful open before,
not after, fstatting the fd.
Tue Jul 23 20:51:31 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* configure: Only define BSD42 if sys/file.h exists.
If alloca is missing and /usr/ucblib exists (SVR4), use it
instead of -lPW.
* port.h [!__STDC__]: #define const.
* gnu.c (dirent_cmp): Fix args to agree with ANSI C prototype.
* create.c: Declare ck_realloc.
* gnu.c, diffarch.c: Move check for symlinks to after port.h include.
Sat Jul 20 00:03:54 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at apple-gunkies)
* msd_dir.[ch]: Use POSIX-style `struct dirent' instead of
`struct direct'.
* create.c, gnu.c, tar.c: Adjust callers.
Thu Jul 18 00:05:01 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at bleen)
* 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
functions on Unix; let configure do it.
[WANT_GETWD] (getwd): Function removed; not needed because
getcwd is used if needed.
* gnu.c, tar.c: Use getcwd if POSIX.
* 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.
* port.h: Define PTR.
* gnu.c, tar.c [__MSDOS__ || USG]: Remove incorrect getcwd
decl; put correct one in port.h [!POSIX].
* 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: Rename macros for testing exit status to conform to
POSIX; use the system's versions if available [POSIX].
* 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.
Mon Jul 15 13:47:45 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* testpad.c (main): Return type void.
* port.c [WANT_STRING]: Don't include memory.h if NO_MEMORY_H.
* create.c (dump_file) [AIX]: Fix typo, `allocate' for `alloca'.
* gnu.c (collect_and_sort_names): Move misplaced brace out of #ifdef.
From: Minh Tran-Le <TRANLE@intellicorp.com>.
* configure: Also look in sys/signal.h for signal decl.

* Rename rtape_server.c to rmt.c and rtape_lib.c to rtapelib.c.
* configure, Makefile.in: $(INSTALLPROG) -> $(INSTALL).
Tue Jul 9 01:38:37 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.
Mon Jul 8 14:30:52 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.
Mon Jul 8 12:56:35 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* buffer.c (fl_read): Missing \n in printf.
Mon Jul 8 03:40:28 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.

* Replace Makefile with configure, Makefile.in, and makefile.pc.
Update README with current compilation instructions.
* port.c [WANT_RENAME] (rename): New function.
Wed Jul 3 18:10:52 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* testpad.c (main): Avoid warning from some compilers on array
address.
* rtape_server.c (sys_errlist): Should be declared extern.
Mon Jul 1 14:14:06 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* Release of version 1.10; appropriate changes to README.
* create.c: Removed printf's about sparse files.
* Fix a misplaced quote in level-0 and change some >& into
2>&1.
Fri Jun 21 23:04:31 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* list.c (skip_extended_headers): Userec was being called in
the wrong place.
Thu Jun 20 19:10:35 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.h: Use ANSI prototypes for msg and msg_perror if
STDC_MSG is defined, even if BSD42 is also.
* Makefile: Replace DESTDIR with bindir.
(install): Don't install tar.texinfo. There's no standard
place for texinfo files, and /usr/local/man is inappropriate.
Add TAGS, distclean, and realclean targets and SHELL= line.

SIGNAL_VOID, not USG.
Wed Jun 5 14:57:11 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

any files specified.
tar.h (struct name): New field for ugly hack.
Mon Jun 3 14:46:46 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* testpad.c: New file to determine if we need special padding
in struct header in tar.h.
* tar.h (struct header): include padding if necessary, include
testpad.h.
* Makefile: rules to create testpad.h, etc.
Wed May 22 16:02:35 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

* Makefile: minor fix for SGI 4D defines from torda@scum.ethz.ch
* rtape_server.c (main.c): Suggested mod for 386/AIX from
Minh Tran-Le. I'm suspicious about this one.
* create.c (dump_file): Mods from Minh Tran-Le for hidden
files on AIX.
gnu.c (collect_and_sort_name, get_dir_contents): AIX hidden file mod.
* tar.c: (name_next): Mod from David Taylor to allow -C inside
a file list given to -T.
* 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: Don't always demand strstr, check for HAVE_STRSTR
instead.
Makefile: Comment describing presence of HAVE_STRSTR option.
Sun May 19 18:39:48 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* port.c (get_date): Renamed from getdate, to avoid SVR4 conflict.

* 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.
Mon Apr 1 17:49:28 1991 Noah Friedman (friedman at wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
(This ought to be temporary until things are fixed properly. )

compiling under hpux.
tar.c: (functon options): case 'S' is a no-op if compiling under
hpux.

automatically.
(_rmt_rexec): Temporarily re-open stdin and stdout to
/dev/tty, to guarantee that rexec() can prompt and read the
login name and password from the user.
From pascal@cnam.cnam.fr (Pascal Meheut).
* Makefile: Mention -DUSE_REXEC.
Fri Mar 8 20:15:11 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at wookumz.ai.mit.edu)

Wed Jan 9 19:43:59 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at 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.
Mon Jan 7 17:13:29 1991 Michael I Bushnell (mib at 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.
Fri Jan 4 12:24:38 EST 1991 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)

on the command line.
Wed Jan 2 12:05:21 EST 1991 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.)
Tue Dec 18 18:05:59 EST 1990 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.
* tar.c Add +exclude FNAME, and make +exclude-from do what +exclude
used to.
Make +version an operation, not an option.
add +confirmation alias for +interactive.
Tue Dec 4 13:28:08 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)

but only foo/MUMBLE
* Add the name mangler (mangle.c, plus changes to create.c and
extract.c)
* extract.c Three small patches from Chip Salzenberg
(tct!chip@uunet.uu.net)
Don't complain when extracting a link, IFF it already exists.
Don't complain when extracting a directory IFF it already
exists.
Don't ad u+wx to directories when running as root.
* gnu.c Some changes from Chip Salzenberg to make
+listed-incremental work.
* port.c Add the F_FREESP emulation of the ftruncate syscall.
Wed Nov 21 15:57:07 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)

(as set in the Makefile) in the message.
Thu Nov 15 13:36:45 EST 1990 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. . .
Tue Nov 6 13:51:46 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)

if there's already one there.
Thu Nov 1 14:58:57 EST 1990 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.
Mon Oct 29 12:06:35 EST 1990 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.
Thu Oct 25 16:03:58 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)

DAYLIGHT_MISSING is defined.
Mon Sep 17 18:04:21 EDT 1990 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.
Thu Sep 13 15:01:17 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (add_exclude) Don't bus-error if the exclude file doesn't
end with a newline.
Sun Sep 9 22:35:27 1990 David J. MacKenzie (djm at albert.ai.mit.edu)

* 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.
Wed Aug 29 00:05:06 1990 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.
Thu Aug 16 11:34:07 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* buffer.c (open_archive) If -O, write verbosity to stderr
instead of stdout.
Fri Aug 10 12:29:28 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* getdate.y Handle an explicit DST in the input string.
A dozen line patch from Per Foreby (perf@efd.lth.se).
Mon Jul 16 13:05:11 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c rename -g -G +incremental, +listed-imcremental, etc.
Fri Jul 13 14:10:33 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)

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.
Fri Jul 6 13:13:59 EDT 1990 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
Fri Jul 6 02:35:31 1990 David J. MacKenzie (djm at apple-gunkies)
* tar.c (options): Don't change `c' if it is 0, as getopt now
handles that internally.
Mon Jul 2 15:21:13 EDT 1990 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
Sun Jun 24 14:26:28 1990 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.
Thu Jun 7 03:31:51 1990 David J. MacKenzie (djm at albert.ai.mit.edu)
* Makefile, buffer.c, diffarch.c: Change MTIO symbol to HAVE_MTIO
because 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.
Tue Jun 5 11:38:00 EDT 1990 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.)
Thu May 31 19:25:36 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* port.c Use #ifdef sparc instead of #ifdef SPARC since
the lowercase version is defined, and the uppercase one isn't.
Tue May 22 11:49:18 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* port.c (ck_malloc) if size==0 pretend size=1
(ck_realloc) if(!ptr) call ck_malloc instead.
Tue May 15 12:05:45 EDT 1990 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.
Fri May 11 16:17:43 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* Makefile, Descripbe 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 HUPX and similar BSD/USG crossovers.
Tue May 8 13:14:54 EDT 1990 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.
Fri May 4 14:05:31 1990 David J. MacKenzie (djm at albert.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c: Recognize the +sparse option. It was documented, but
only the short form (-S) was actually recognized.
Tue Apr 17 21:34:14 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* create.c Don't access location 0 if ->dir_contents is null.
Wed Apr 11 17:30:03 EDT 1990 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.)
Fri Mar 23 00:06:30 1990 Jim Kingdon (kingdon at mole.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (long_options): Make it so +append +extract +list +update
+catenate and +delete don't take arguments.
Mon Mar 12 13:33:53 EST 1990
* buffer.c (open_archive, fl_write) Set the mtime of the volume
header to the current time.
Wed Mar 7 14:10:10 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* buffer.c Fix +compress-block A two character patch from
Juha Sarlin (juha@tds.kth.se)
Replace #ifdef __GNU__ with #ifdef __STDC__
(new_volume) If open of new archive fails, ask again
(Is probably 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.
Thu Mar 1 13:43:30 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@wookumz.ai.mit.edu)
* Makefile Mention the -NO_REMOTE option.
* port.c Fix typo, and define WANT_FTRUNCATE on i386 machines.
Mon Feb 26 17:44:53 1990 Jim Kingdon (kingdon at pogo.ai.mit.edu)
* getdate.y: Declare yylex and yyerror as static.
#define yyparse to getdate_yyparse.
Sun Feb 25 20:47:23 1990 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.
Mon Feb 5 14:29:21 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@wookumz)
* port.c define LOSING_MSG on sparc, since doprnt_msg doesn't work.
Fix typo in #ifdef WANT_GETWD
Fri Jan 26 16:11:20 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@wookumz)
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();
Tue Jan 23 14:06:21 EST 1990 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 Make *both* instances of signal-handler stuff use
void (*foo)() on USG systems.
Thu Jan 11 14:03:45 EST 1990 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.
This small patch from Joergen Haegg (jh@aahas.se)
* 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. There are a simple
patch from Mike Muuss (mike@brl.mil).
* 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.
Wed Jan 10 01:58:46 1990 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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).
Tue Jan 9 16:16:00 EST 1990 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 ./ These are both trivial changes from
Piercarlo "Peter" Grandi pcg%cs.aber.ac.uk@nsfnet-relay.ac.uk
* diffarch.c (diff_init) Print correct number of bytes in error
message.
Tue Jan 9 03:19:49 1990 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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): Make sparse file checking code conditional
on BSD42 because it uses st_blocks, which the other systems lack.
Tue Jan 2 13:35:56 EST 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@gnu)
* port.c (quote_copy_string) Fix so it doesn't scramble memory if
the last character is non-printable. A trivial fix from Kian-Tat Lim
(ktl@wag240.caltech.edu).
Tue Dec 19 11:19:37 1989 Jim Kingdon (kingdon at pogo)
* port.c [BSD42]: Define DOPRNT_MSG.
tar.h [BSD42]: Do not prototype msg{,_perror}.
Fri Dec 8 11:02:47 EST 1989 Jay Fenlason (hack@gnu)
* create.c (dump_file) Remove typo in msg.
Fri Dec 1 19:26:47 1989 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.
Tue Nov 28 04:28:26 1989 David J. MacKenzie (djm at hobbes.ai.mit.edu)
* port.c: Move declaration of alloca into #else /* sparc */
so it will compile on sparcs.
Mon Nov 27 15:17:08 1989 David J. MacKenzie (djm at hobbes.ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (options): Remove -version option (replaced by +version).
(describe): Mention long options.
Sat Nov 25 04:25:23 1989 David J. MacKenzie (djm at 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.
Mon Nov 20 14:55:39 EST 1989 hack@ai.mit.edu
* list.c (read_and) Call check_exclude() to see if the files
should be skipped on extract or list.
Thu Nov 9 18:59:32 1989 Jim Kingdon (kingdon at hobbes.ai.mit.edu)
* buffer.c (fl_read): Fix typos in error message
"tar EOF not on block boundary".
Mon Oct 23 13:09:40 EDT 1989 (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (long_options[]) Add an option for blocked compression.
Thu Oct 19 13:38:16 EDT 1989 (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* buffer.c (writeerror) Print a more useful error msg.
Wed Sep 27 18:33:41 EDT 1989 (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (main) Mention "tar -help" if the luser types a non-workable
set of options.
Mon Sep 11 15:03:29 EDT 1989 (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* tar.c (options) Have -F correctly set info_script.
Tue Aug 29 12:58:06 EDT 1989 (hack@ai.mit.edu)
* Makefile Include ChangeLog in tar.tar and tar.tar.Z
Mon Aug 28 17:42:24 EDT 1989 (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.
Fri Aug 25 20:05:27 EDT 1989 Joy Kendall (jak at 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: line 1158 in new_volume(): if f_run_script_at_end
is set, we give info_script to system(), otherwise we do
what we've always done. **FIXME** I'm not sure if that's all
that has to be done here.
Thu Aug 24 10:09:38 EDT 1989 Joy Kendall (jak at 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.
... ... .. ..:..:.. ... .... Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
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.
1.06 Use STDC_MSG if __STDC__ defined
ENXIO meand end-of-volume in archive (for the UNIX PC)
Added break after volume-header case (line 440) extract.c
Added patch from arnold@unix.cc.emory.edu to rtape_lib.c
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.
1.05 A fix to make confirm() work when the archive is on stdin
include 'extern FILE *msg_file;' in pr_mkdir(), and fix
tar.h to work with __STDC__
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
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
1.03 Fixed buffer.c so 'tar tzf NON_EXISTENT_FILE' returns an error
message instead of hanging forever
More fixes to tar.texinfo
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.
Fixed diffarch.c so verify should compile without MTIOCTOP
defined
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
Local Variables:
mode: indented-text
left-margin: 8
