-- Fixed double byte swap operation on writes of partition label data on
+- Fixed double byte swap operation on writes of partition name data on
big-endian systems; this is in addition to the double byte swap fix on
reading partition label data fixed in 1.0.7. (Thanks to Erik Larsson for
both fixes.)
+- Added feature to gdisk and sgdisk to enable swapping the byte order of
+ partition names, so as to correct disks already affected by the preceding
+ bug. This option is 'b' on the experts' menu in gdisk and
+ -b/--byte-swap-name in sgdisk. This seems advanced/obscure enough that I
+ don't want to clutter cgdisk's menu with this option, so I haven't added
+ it there.
+
+- Trivial code cleanup.
