* Don't change the umask; the library now ignores the umask if
you set EXTRACT_PERM
* Set the EXTRACT_ACL and EXTRACT_FFLAGS bits (used to be
controlled by EXTRACT_PERM).
* Add --null option (sort #defines here)
* Add process_lines function to util.c that reads newline-terminated
or null-terminated lines (with self-sizing buffers, etc) and iteratively
invokes a provided function. Use this to dramatically simplify:
-T handling for -c, --exclude-from-file, and --include-from-file.
* Add -T handling to -x (via include_from_file)
Hopefully, this will fix the openoffice port and a couple of
others that rely on -T and --null.
Instead, display a warning, clean up, and let main() return the error.
In particular, this means that chdir() problems won't leave broken
archives, though they will prompt an error exit value.
This requires some non-trivial surgery to the options parsing.
While here, let people who only have getopt() access long options
through the -W longopt=value convention.
* Usage goes to stderr, not stdout
* Use correct argument markup
* bsdtar --help no longer exits with an error return code
* ensure that the word "bsdtar" appears in the first
line output from "bsdtar --help" (even if the program is
invoked as "tar")
In particular, scripts can now test for the presence of bsdtar.
For example, in /bin/sh:
if (tar --help 2>&1 | grep bsdtar >/dev/null 2>&1) then \
echo bsdtar; else echo not bsdtar; fi
an existing symlink (as might happen if you extract an archive twice).
Also, if we remove the offending link, then we've removed the problem
and can safely go forward with the extraction.

duplicate entries for the same symlinks)

--exclude='pattern'.
I should have added this a long time ago, since it's so useful for testing.
In particular, it allows me to select a few entries from a troublesome
archive so that I can easily focus my debugging efforts:
bsdtar -czf new.tgz --include='*foo*' @old.tgz
* --help produces long help message on systems with getopt_long
* -h with no other options also produces long help message
(If a mode is specified, -h has its usual meaning.)
* Move format/compression reporting to end of output, since
we don't always know the input format until then.
* Set bsdtar exit value to 1 if any file could not be restored.
* Generate gtar-style warning when stripping leading '/' characters.
* Warn when removing symlinks.
Note that bsdtar's -o (which follows SUSv2) is not the same as GNU tar's -o.
In GNU tar, -o and --no-same-owner are not synonyms.

systems. The fts.h here is an exact copy of include/fts.h (except for
an initial explanatory comment and the revision tags, of course). The
fts.c here is slightly modified from lib/libc/gen/fts.c so it can
compile correctly on non-FreeBSD systems.
directory, then a file with that symlink as a prefix can drop a file
outside of the current directory, which can be a security hole.
Plug this hole by refusing to extract files if a prefix of the
pathname is a symlink. The -P option disables this check.
