+
+	Version 1.29
+
+	Minor fix
+	* src/names.c (new_name): rename to make_file_name. All uses
+	changed.
+
+2016-04-14  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	Fix argument handling when running external commands.
+	* src/system.c (xexec): Use sh -c to run the command.  This fixed
+	bug introduced by 7b5e80396 (tar 1.27)
+	* doc/tar.texi: Fix checkpoint examples: (1) $TAR_FILENAME
+	is not available when creating archive and (2) --checkpoint
+	can't be used as abbreviation of --checkpoint-action
+
+2016-04-06  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	Remove iotty test
+	The auxiliary utility ttyemu proved to be unreliable.
+	Given existing
+	differences between pty implementations and termios ioctls
+	on various
+	platforms, writing it in a portable way requires effort
+	disproportional
+	to its actual purpose.
+	* configure.ac: Remove check for grantpt
+	* gnulib.modules: Remove posix_openpt, ptsname, and unlockpt
+	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Remove iotty.at
+	(check_PROGRAMS): Remove ttyemu.
+	* tests/testsuite.at: Remove iotty.at
+	* tests/iotty.at: Remove.
+	* tests/ttyemu.c: Remove.
+
+2016-04-05  Pavel Raiskup  <praiskup@redhat.com>
+
+	xattrs: fix build on Darwin
+	Be careful to define HAVE_XATTRS when not all needed xattr-related
+	functions are properly defined either in libc or libattr.
+	Reported independently by Denis Excoffier and Dominyk Tille.
+	* acinclude.m4 (TAR_HEADERS_ATTR_XATTR_H): Check for each xattr
+	function separately.  Don't AC_CHECK_LIB (LIBS is filled by
+	AC_SEARCH_LIBS when necessary).
+	* src/Makefile.am: The LDADD -lattr was redundant.
+
+2016-03-24  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	Remove --preserve option
+	* src/tar.c: Remove --preserve option
+	* NEWS: Update.
+	* doc/tar.texi: Update.
+
+	Fix testcase
+	* tests/time02.at: Sort tar -d output
+
+	Update THANKS file
+
+2016-03-24  Jeremy Bobbio  <lunar@debian.org>
+
+	New option --clamp-mtime
+	The new `--clamp-mtime` option will change the behavior of
+	`--mtime` to only
+	use the time specified if the file mtime is newer than the
+	given time.
+	The `--clamp-mtime` option can only be used together with
+	`--mtime`.
+	Typical use case is to make builds reproducible: to loose less
+	information, it's better to keep the original date of an archive,
+	except for
+	files modified during the build process. In that case, using
+	a reference
+	(and thus reproducible) timestamps for the latter is good
+	enough. See
+	<https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds> for more information.
+	Patch submitted by Jeremy Bobbio and
+	Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>
+	* doc/tar.1: Document --clamp-mtime
+	* doc/tar.texi: Likewise.
+	* src/common.h (set_mtime_option_mode): New enum
+	(set_mtime_option): Change type to enum set_mtime_option_mode.
+	(NEWER_OPTION_INITIALIZED): Rename to NEWER_OPTION_INITIALIZED.
+	* src/create.c (start_header): Set mtime depending on
+	set_mtime_option.
+	* src/tar.c (options,parse_opt): New option --clamp-mtime
+	(decode_options): Initialize mtime_option
+	* tests/time02.at: New testcase.
+	* tests/Makefile.am: Add new testcase
+	* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.
+
+2016-03-21  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	Acknowledgments
+	* THANKS: Add Dagobert Michelsen
+
+	Fix the testsuite
+	* tests/sparse06.at: Don't use timeout: depending on the
+	filesystem
+	mounted, current LA and lots of other factors, creation of
+	archive can
+	take much more time than the expected 2 seconds.
+
+	Fix ckmtime
+	* gnulib.modules: Use timespec-sub
+	* tests/ckmtime.c: Use second resolution.
+
+2016-03-20  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

+	* src/unlink.c (flush_deferred_unlinks): OpenSolaris sets EEXIST
+	instead of ENOTEMPTY if trying to remove a non-empty directory.

+	* src/names.c (names_argp,names_argp_children): Explicitly
+	initialize
+	all members.
+
+2015-12-11  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>
+
+	Minor fix
+
+	Fix handling of filename-selection options.
+	Filename-selection options are --wildcards, --recursive, etc. (see
+	names.c for a complete list).  These options are
+	position-sensitive,
+	i.e. each such option affects all filenames and filename-selection
+	options that appear after it until eventually cancelled by a
+	corresponding counterpart option.
+	These options can appear in "file-from" file lists, which
+	means that
+	they cannot be handled right away, but instead should be put on
+	the "name_elt" list and processed sequentionally, as file name
+	arguments
+	are.
+	* src/common.h (warn_regex_usage): Remove.
+	(name_add_name): Change signature.

+	(NELT_FMASK): Remove.
+	(NELT_OPTION): New constant.
+	(name_elt) <type>: Change type.
+	<v.opt>: New member.
+	(name_elt_alloc_matflags): Remove.
+	(name_add_name): Take one argument.
+	(name_add_option): New static function.
+	(name_add_file): Take one argument.
+	(read_next_name): Use filename_terminator and
+	verbatim_files_from_option to initialize file.term and
+	file.verbatim.
+	* src/tar.c: Move handling of filename-selection options to
+	names.c
+	* tests/T-dir00.at: Fix typo.
+	* tests/T-recurse.at: Remove expected failure.
+

+2015-12-06  Pavel Raiskup  <praiskup@redhat.com>
+
+	numeric-owner: print big UID/GID correctly
+	* src/list.c (simple_print_header): Do not parse ustar header
+	for UID/GID again (tar_stat_info has already been correctly
+	filled with respect to possible uid/gid extended headers).
+	* tests/numeric.at: New testcase for --numeric-owner option.
+	* tests/Makefile.am: Add new testcase.
+	* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.
+
+2015-12-06  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	Use SEEK_HOLE for hole detection
+	Based on patch by Pavel Raiskup.
+	Use SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA feature of lseek on systems that support
+	it.  This can make archiving of sparse files much faster.

+
+2015-11-21  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>
+
+	Fix bug in the inplementation of --one-top-level.
+	When extracting an archive that contains './' with the
+	--one-top-level option,
+	the mode and ownership of '.' would be incorrectly applied to
+	the current
+	working directory, instead of the requested top-level directory.
+	* src/list.c (enforce_one_top_level): Map '.' to the top-level
+	directory.
+	* tests/Makefile.am: Add onetop05.at

+
+	Work around unlinkat bug on FreeBSD and GNU/Hurd
+	* src/unlink.c (dunlink_insert): New function.
+	(flush_deferred_unlinks): Skip cwds and nonempty directories
+	at the first pass.  If force is requested, run a second pass
+	removing them.
+	(queue_deferred_unlink): Make sure current working directory
+	entries are sorted in descending order by the value of dir_idx.
+	This makes sure they will be removed in right order, which works
+	around unlinkat bug on FreeBSD and GNU/Hurd.
+	* tests/remfiles08b.at: Remove expected failure.
+	* tests/remfiles09b.at: Likewise.
+
+2015-11-10  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>
+
+	Fix coredump on FreeBSD when TAR_OPTIONS is set
+	* src/tar.c (parse_default_options): Use program_name instead of
+	program_invocation_short_name.	On some systems the latter is
+	NULL when

+	* src/names.c: Likewise.
+
+2015-11-02  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

+	names/ids.
+	* src/tar.c: New options --owner-map and --group-map.
+	* tests/map.at: New file.
+	* tests/Makefile.am: Add map.at

+2015-09-24  Kir Kolyshkin  <kir@openvz.org>  (tiny change)
+
+	doc: fix font and spelling typos
+	* doc/tar.1: Fix font and spelling typos in man page.
+
+2015-09-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Fix problems caught by static checking
+	Most of these can be caught by configuring with
+	--enable-gcc-warnings.
+	Problem reported by Pavel Raiskup in:
+	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2015-09/msg00001.html

+	* src/exclist.c (info_cleanup_exclist):
+	* src/tar.c (argp_program_version, argp_program_bug_address):
+	Remove; unused.
+	(parse_default_options): Define via prototype instead of old
+	style.
+	(parse_default_options, decode_options):
+	Fill out incomplete initializers.
+
+2015-08-31  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>
+
+	Improve option sanity checking
+	Any two conflicting options are reported only if they both
+	occur in
+	the command line.  Otherwise, options defined in the command line
+	silently override those set in the TAR_OPTIONS environment
+	variable.
+	* src/common.h (option_source): New enum.
+	(option_locus): New struct.
+	* src/names.c (name_elt): New member: line.

+
+2015-08-24  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

+2015-08-03  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	Options to control option handling in file lists.
+	The --verbatim-files-from option disables option handling in
+	file lists.  The --no-verbatim-files-from reverts its effect.
+	The --null option implies --verbatim-files-from.  This restores
+	the documented behavior, broken by 26538c9b.
+	* src/common.h (verbatim_files_from_option): New global.
+	* src/names.c (name_elt): New member: file.verbatim
+	(name_add_file): Take 'verbatim' state as its third parameter.

+2015-07-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	tar: fix symlink race and symlink transform bug
+	Problem reported by Tobias Stoeckmann in:
+	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2015-07/msg00004.html
+	* gnulib.modules: Add areadlinkat-with-size.
+	* src/create.c: Include areadlink.h.
+	(dump_file0): Use areadlinkat_with_size, rather than trying to do
+	it by hand, incorrectly.  This also avoids assumption that
+	the symlink contents fit on the stack.	Also, use the transformed
+	link name, not the original link name, when deciding whether the
+	name is long enough to require writing a long link.
+
+	tar: port -d to longer symlinks
+	* src/compare.c (diff_symlink):
+	Don't use alloca on symlink length; it might be too big for
+	the stack.
+	Don't assume that readlinkat's return value fits in 'int'.
+	Prefer memcmp to strncmp where either will do.
+
+	tar: port to recent gnulib
+	* gnulib.modules: Remove 'acl' and add 'file-has-acl'.
+
+	tar: pacify GCC 5.1 -Wformat-signedness
+	* lib/wordsplit.c (struct wordsplit_node.flags):

+	Reduce memory consumption when handling the -T option.
+	The commit cdb27293 made the -T option more flexible, but

+	missing in the last entry.  This was reported by Pavel Raiskup

+	tar: improve quality of diagnostics with incrementals
+	Inspired by a prototype by Nathan Stratton Treadway in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2013-01/msg00000.html>.
+	* src/incremen.c (read_num): Rewrite by merging read_negative_num
+	and read_unsigned_num.	Use strtosysint rather than rolling this
+	stuff ourselves.  Change return type to bool.  All uses changed.
+	(read_negative_num, read_unsigned_num): Remove.
+	(read_num, read_timespec, read_incr_db_2): Improve quality of
+	diagnostics, e.g., by supplying byte offset of error.
+
+2013-01-26  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	tar: fix bug with sparse files with effective size of 8 GiB
+	or more
+	Reported by Pavel Raiskup in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2013-01/msg00001.html>.
+	* NEWS: Document the fix.
+	* src/sparse.c (pax_start_header): New function.
+	(pax_dump_header_0, pax_dump_header_1): Use it.
+
+2012-12-31  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	maint: update copyrights for 2013 and as per current GNU standards
+
+	maint: remove unnecessary file
+	* src/configure.in: Remove.  This file has been obsolete for
+	a while.
+
+2012-12-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	maint: don't enable warnings by default unless GCC 4.6 or later
+	* configure.ac (gl_GCC_VERSION_IFELSE): New macro, from coreutils.
+	(gl_gcc_warnings): By default, disable warnings for GCC versions
+	before 4.6.  This works around a failure when building from git on
+	Ubuntu 10, reported privately by Nathan Stratton Treadway.
+
+2012-12-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Handle incremental format 2 with negative numbers, too.
+	* src/incremen.c (read_unsigned_num): Last arg is intmax_t *, not
+	uintmax_t, for consistency with other readers.	All callers
+	changed.
+	Avoid signed integer overflow.
+	(read_num):
+
+	Fix some problems with negative and out-of-range integers.
+	Original problem reported for HP-UX LVM v2.2 by Michael White in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2012-10/msg00000.html>.
+	This patch fixes some other gotchas that I noticed.
+	* gnulib.modules: Add extern-inline.
+	* src/common.h: Use _GL_INLINE_HEADER_BEGIN,
+	_GL_INLINE_HEADER_END.
+	(COMMON_INLINE, max, min): New macros.
+	(represent_uintmax, valid_timespec): New inline functions.
+	(SYSINT_BUFSIZE): New constant.
+	(sysinttostr, strtosysint, decode_timespec): New decls.
+	* src/create.c (start_private_header): Silently bring the time_t
+	value into range; it is now the caller's responsibility to deal
+	with any overflow error.  Use uid 0 and gid 0 rather than the
+	user's uid/gid, since the faked header isn't "owned" by the user
+	and the uid/gid could in theory be out of range.  Leave major and
+	minor zeroed.
+	(FILL): Remove.
+	(write_gnu_long_link): Let start_private_header zero things out.
+	* src/create.c (write_gnu_long_link, write_extended):
+	* src/xheader.c (xheader_write_global):
+	Use start_time, not current time; no point hammering on the clock.
+	* src/compare.c (diff_multivol): Check that offset, size are
+	in range.
+	* src/incremen.c (read_incr_db_01, write_directory_file_entry):
+	Allow negative time_t, dev_t, and ino_t.
+	* src/list.c (max): Remove (moved to common.h).
+	(read_header): Check that size is in range.
+	(from_header): Return intmax_t, not uintmax_t, to allow negative.
+	All callers changed.  At compile time, check assumptions about
+	intmax_t and uintmax_t.  Use bool for booleans.  Avoid overflow
+	hassles on picky hosts.
+	(mode_from_header): Last arg is now bool *, not unsigned *.
+	All callers changed.
+	(simple_print_header): Do not assume UID, GID fit in 'long'.
+	* src/list.c (from_header):
+	* src/xheader.c (out_of_range_header):
+	Arg is now a plain minimum value, not minus minval converted to
+	uintmax_t.  All callers changed.
+	* src/misc.c (COMMON_INLINE): New macro.
+	(sysinttostr, strtosysint, decode_timespec): New functions.
+	* src/sparse.c (oldgnu_add_sparse, oldgnu_fixup_header)
+	(star_fixup_header):
+	Check for offset overflow.
+	(decode_num): Clear errno before calling strtoumax.
+	* src/tar.c (expand_pax_option): Don't discard nanoseconds.
+	* src/xheader.c (assign_time_option): Allow negative time_t.
+	(decode_record): Simplify, since out-of-range string is guaranteed
+	to produce a value exceeding len_max.
+	(xheader_read): Last arg is off_t, not size_t.
+	Caller should diagnose negative arg, as needed.
+	Check that it's in range.
+	(enum decode_time_status): Remove.
+	(_decode_time): Remove, folding into decode_time.
+	(decode_time): Return bool, not enum decode_time_status.
+	Rely on decode_timespec to do most of the work.
+	(code_signed_num): New function.
+	(code_num): Use it.
+	(decode_signed_num): New function.
+	(decode_num): Use it.
+	(gid_coder, gid_decoder, uid_coder, uid_decoder,
+	sparse_map_decoder)
+	(sparse_map_decoder): Code and decode negative values.
+	(sparse_map_decoder): Improve check for out-of-range values.
+	* tests/time01.at: New file.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add it.
+	* tests/testsuite.at: Include it.
+
+2012-12-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Port use of mkdirat etc. to Solaris 10.
+	* gnulib.modules (fchmodat, fchownat, fstatat, mkdirat, unlinkat):
+	Add.  These were split out in gnulib, so we now need to request
+	them separately.  mkdirat, for example, is not in Solaris 10.
+
+	Port ACL configuration to Solaris 10.
+	* configure.ac (with_posix_acls): Fix misspellings.
+	Stop checking at the first failure, to speed up 'configure'.
+
+2012-12-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	tar: remove unused externs, or make them static
+	* src/buffer.c (record_buffer_aligned, flush_write_ptr,
+	flush_read_ptr)
+	(duration):
+	* src/list.c (recent_global_header):
+	* src/unlink.c (deferred_unlink_delay):

+	* src/common.h (rmt_command_option): Remove; unused.
+	* src/tar.c (check_links_option, allocated_archive_names):
+	Move decls here from common.h; these are now static.
+
+	* .gitignore: Regenerate.
+
+	build: new configure option --enable-gcc-warnings
+	This has a similar meaning as in other GNU applications
+	such as coreutils and Emacs.
+	* NEWS: Document it.
+	* .gitignore: Remove redundant build-aux.
+	Remove gnu, since gnu/Makefile.am is now in git.
+	Add gnu/.gitignore, gnu/charset.alias, gnu/*.h, gnu/*/ to cover
+	autogenerated files.
+	* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_mk): Remove.
+	* configure.ac: Add support for --enable-gcc-warnings,
+	taken from coreutils and simplified.
+	* gnu/Makefile.am: New file.  Formerly this was autogenerated,
+	but the autogenerated file has been renamed to gnulib.mk,
+	its usual name when bootstrapping from gnulib.
+	This way, AM_CFLAGS can incorporate warning options.
+	* gnulib.modules: Add manywarnings.
+	* lib/Makefile.am, src/Makefile.am (AM_CFLAGS): New macro,
+	incorporating warning options.
+	* lib/attr-xattr.in.h (ENOATTR): New macro, if not already
+	defined.
+	* src/buffer.c (magic): Don't rely on incomplete initializers.

+	literals in a char * context.
+	* src/xattrs.c, src/xattrs.h (xattrs_clear_setup):
+	Declare parameters as (void), not ().
+	* src/xheader.c (xheader_format_name): Initialize pptr to null,
+	to pacify GCC.	Remove unnecessary test of nptr versus null.
+
+	tar: don't truncate diagnostic
+	* src/list.c (from_header): Fix buffer size calculation when
+	generating a diagnostic.

+	tar: don't assume O_NONBLOCK is benign on regular files
+	On Data Migration Facility (DMF), High Performance Storage System
+	(HPSS),
+	and presumably other file systems based on hierarchical storage,
+	opening
+	a regular file with O_NONBLOCK can cause later reads to fail with
+	errno == EAGAIN.  We need the O_NONBLOCK to avoid some security
+	races.
+	Work around the problem by using fcntl to clear the O_NONBLOCK
+	flag if I/O fails with that errno value.
+	Problem reported by Vitezslav Cizek in

+	Fix --keep-old-files option.
+	The regression was introduced by 8f390db9.  This patch implements

+
+	Run alternative decompression programs if the principal one is

+	Some compression programs are able to handle various compression

+	decompression
+	if the principal decompressor cannot be started.

+	(archive_compression_type): New static variable.
+	(zip_magic): Remove program and option fields.
+	(zip_program): New structure and static.

+	* tests/remfiles01.at: Discard diagnostics that some shells
+	generate about broken pipes.
+	* tests/sigpipe.at: Likewise.

+
+2010-11-01  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	Fix extraction of device nodes.
+	* src/extract.c (extract_node): Do not mask out node type.
+	The bug was introduced in commit ea964cce.
+
+2010-10-28  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	tar: don't cross struct member boundaries with OLDGNU_MAGIC
+	* src/create.c (write_gnu_long_link, start_header): Access
+	header->buffer + offsetof (struct posix_header, magic), instead of
+	header->header.magic, when reading or writing the OLDGNU_MAGIC
+	pattern.  The code violates the C standard without this change,
+	and GCC warns about this if fortify checking is enabled.  It's not
+	a bug on traditional (i.e., non-debugging) platforms, but it does
+	violate the C standard so it should be fixed.  Problem originally
+	reported by John Emil Karlson in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2010-04/msg00023.html>.
+	* src/list.c (decode_header): Likewise.
+
+	tests: port to sh variants that squirrel away file descriptors
+	OpenBSD /bin/sh, and some other sh variants, squirrel away file
+	descriptors before closing them.  For example, for "cat 3<&-" they
+	first dup file descriptor 3 to a fd that is 10 or greater, then
+	close 3 (because if "cat" had been a builtin command like ":" then
+	they would have wanted to avoid the fork and restore the fd after
+	":" finished); and they treat ordinary (forking) commands the same
+	as builtin commands.  This approach fails after "ulimit -n 10".
+	Work around this deficiency by closing the file descriptors before
+	invoking ulimit.  Problem reported by Christian Weisgerber in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2010-10/msg00041.html>;
+	solution suggested by Jilles Tjoelker in
+	<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.dash/415>.
+	* tests/extrac11.at (scarce file descriptors): Close file
+	descriptors before invoking ulimit -n.

+
+	Transform file names when updating and appending to archives.
+	This complements 28e91b48.

+	* src/list.c (transform_stat_info): Remove static qualifier.
+	* src/update.c (update_archive): Call transform_stat_info.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add append03.at
+	* tests/testsuite.at: Include append03.at
+
+2010-10-27  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	tests: port to Solaris diff
+	* tests/extrac13.at: Don't assume that "diff -c" outputs nothing
+	when there are no differences.	This is not true on Solaris,
+	where it outputs "No differences encountered".
+
+	tar: fix -x --overwrite bug (no --dereference, ! O_NOFOLLOW)
+	This bug was discovered on Solaris 8.  On older hosts lacking
+	O_NOFOLLOW, tar -x --overwrite (without --dereference) follows
+	symbolic links, causing the "extract over symlinks" test to fail.
+	* src/extract.c (open_output_file): If O_NOFOLLOW is needed but
+	does not work, check for a symlink separately.
+
+	tar: don't use "((" in shell scripts
+	* tests/extrac11.at: Replace "((" with "( (" in shell scripts, as

+	Make sure name matching occurs before name transformation.
+	The commit 9c194c99 altered that order.
+	* src/list.c (transform_stat_info): New function.  Split off from
+	decode_header.
+	(read_and): Call transform_stat_info right before do_something,
+	and after deciding if we should proceed with this member name,
+	so that name matching occurs before name transformation.
+	* tests/extrac17.at: New file.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add extrac17.at

+
+	tar: use more-accurate diagnostic when intermediate mkdir fails
+	Without this change, if tar tried to extract a file A/B/C, noticed
+	that A/B didn't exist, attempted to mkdir A/B, and the mkdir
+	failed, it did not diagnose the mkdir failure, but simply reported
+	the failure to open A/B/C.  This sometimes led to confusion
+	because it wasn't clear what tar was trying to do, in particular
+	that tar tried to mkdir A/B.  With this patch, tar issues two
+	diagnostics in this case: one for A/B and the other for A/B/C.
+	Problem reported by Hauke Laging in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2010-10/msg00020.html>.
+	* gnulib.modules: Remove faccessat.
+	* src/extract.c (make_directories): New arg INTERDIR_MADE.
+	Diagnose mkdir failure.  Return 0 on success, nonzero on failure,
+	as opposed to nonzero iff some directory was created.  All callers
+	changed.  Simplify the code when mkdir fails, by checking whether

+	Several of the tests assumed that a newly created file cannot

+
+	tar: prefer openat-style functions
+	This change replaces traditional functions like 'open' with the

+	* src/misc.c (maybe_backup_file, deref_stat): Likewise.
+	* src/extract.c (make_directories): Use mkdirat rather than mkdir.
+	Use faccessat rather than access.  This fixes a minor permissions
+	bug when tar is running setuid (who would want to do that?!).
+	(open_output_file): Use openat rather than open.
+	In the process, this removes support for Masscomp's O_CTG files,
+	which aren't compatible with openat's signature.  Masscomp!  Wow!
+	That's a blast from the past.  As far as I know, that operating
+	system hasn't been supported for more than 20 years.

+	(delay_set_stat): Always delay setting status for . and /.
+	* src/misc.c (must_be_dot_or_slash): Now extern.

+
+	tar: don't check for getdtablesize; use AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE
+	* configure.ac: Don't check for getdtablesize; no longer needed.
+	Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE rather than AC_CHECK_FUNCS, for

+
+	tar: extract symlink attributes, close some symlink-related races
+	* NEWS: Describe symlink-extraction improvements.
+	* src/extract.c (enum permstatus): Remove.
+	(fchmod, fchown): Define dummy replacement macros if the system
+	does not supply them.
+	(implemented): New function.
+	(struct delayed_set_stat): Remove members invert_permissions,
+	permstatus.  They were too confusing, and tried to do too much
+	in too-little space.  Instead, add members current_mode,
+	current_mode_mask, interdir, atflag.  All users changed.
+	(struct delayed_link): Add members mode, atime, mtime, to support
+	platforms such as BSD where symlinks have these attributes.
+	All users changed.
+	(fd_chmod): Renamed from fdchmod.  New argument atflag.  Check for
+	operation not supported at run-time, not at configure-time.  Put
+	fd argument first.  All callers changed.
+	(fd_chown): Likewise, renaming from fdchown.
+	(fd_stat): Likewise, renaming from fdstat.
+	(set_mode): Remove args stat_info, cur_info, invert_permissions,
+	permstatus.  Add args mode, mode_mask, current_mode,
+	current_mode_mask,
+	atflag.  All callers changed.  Close some races.  Use an easier-to
+	understand method for computing permissions.  Work around POSIX
+	incompatibility in Linux fchmodat.  Support extraction of symlink
+	modes, if the OS allows it.
+	(set_stat): Remove args cur_info, invert_permissions, permstatus.
+	Add args current_mode, current_mode_mask, interdir, atflag.
+	All callers changed.  Close some races.  Support extraction of
+	attributes on symlinks, if the OS allows it.
+	(delay_set_stat): Remove args invert_permissions, permstatus.
+	Add args current_mode, current_mode_mask, mode, atflag.
+	The ST arg can be null now, indicating that it's an intermediate
+	directory.  All callers changed.
+	(repair_delayed_set_stat, apply_nonancestor_delayed_set_stat):
+	Close some races.
+	(extract_dir): Also be paranoid if only --same-permissions, due
+	to semantics of setgid and setuid directories on some hosts.
+	This closes a race on those hosts.  Simplify calculation of
+	delay_set_stat arguments; the old code was truly strange and
+	probably wrong in some border cases.
+	(extract_dir, extract_file, extract_node, extract_fifo): Don't
+	rely on
+	unspecified behavior in mode arg of open, mknod, etc.  Instead,
+	mask out those bits when creating the file, and add them later via
+	fchmod or chmodat.
+	(open_output_file): file_name is now const.  Add arg current_mode,
+	current_mode_mask.  All callers changed.  When overwriting
+	old files,
+	refuse to overwrite something that is not a regular file, since
+	we're extracting a regular file.
+	(extract_file): Remove the FIXME comment.  Whatever the protection
+	issues were, they should be fixed now.	As a result of all
+	the other
+	API changes, we now use fchmod etc. rather than chmod etc.,
+	closing
+	some races.
+	(create_placeholder_file, apply_delayed_links): Record desired
+	mode and times for symlinks, for OSes that support that.
+
+2010-09-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	tar: tar -x without --incremental no longer sets atime again
+	* src/extract.c (set_stat): Use UTIME_OMIT rather than UTIME_NOW.
+	The UTIME_NOW was there only to emulate the previous behavior of
+	using the current time, and the previous behavior was there only
+	because before we started assuming POSIX.1-2008 there was no
+	portable way to get the effect of UTIME_NOW.
+
+	tar: another --atime-preserve race fix
+	* src/common.h (set_file_atime): Add parentfd arg.
+	* src/compare.c (diff_file): Use it.
+	* src/create.c (dump_file0): Likewise.	This closes yet another
+	race condition with symbolic links.
+	* src/misc.c (set_file_atime): Add parentfd arg.
+
+	tar: --atime-preserve fixes for races etc.
+	This patch fixes a race condition in the --atime-preserve=replace
+	option, which might cause tar to improperly follow a symbolic
+	link.
+	It also drops the use of the _FIOSATIME ioctl of Solaris 2.x
+	and later, which loses resolution on time stamps.  Modern Solaris
+	systems support full-resolution time stamps in the kernel, and
+	it's not worth the hassle of testing this call, useful only in
+	no-longer-supported Solaris variants.
+	Also, it undoes a change I recently introduced to the --compare
+	option, which caused it to not follow symbolic links unless the
+	--dereference option was also used.  Quite possibly this change is
+	a good idea, but the old behavior was documented and the change
+	should not have been installed casually.
+	* configure.ac: Don't check for stropts.h and sys/filio.h.
+	* gnulib.modules: Add futimens, utimensat.  Remove futimens.
+	* src/common.h (fd_utimensat): New decl.
+	* src/compare.c (diff_file, diff_multivol):
+	Don't use open_read_flags: those are for --create only.
+	* src/create.c (dump_file0): Adjust to set_file_atime changes.
+	Pass fstatat_flags to set_file_atime, so that symbolic links are
+	not followed inadvertently.
+	* src/extract.c: Don't include utimens.h.
+	(set_stat): Use fd_utimensat ant UTIME_NOW rather than fdutimens.
+	* src/misc.c: Don't include utimens.h, stropts.h, sys/filio.h.
+	(fd_utimensat): New function.
+	(set_file_atime): Use it.  New arg atflag, controlling symlink
+	handling.  All callers changed.
+
+2010-09-14  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* configure.ac: tar: close some race conditions when extracting
+	* configure.ac: Check for fchmod and fchown.  Don't check
+	for utimes.
+	* src/extract.c (fdchmod, fdchown, fdstat): New functions.
+	(set_mode, set_stat): New arg FD.  All callers changed.
+	This avoids some race conditions between closing a regular file
+	and setting its metadata, and it's a bit faster.

+
+	tar: don't worry about fdopendir closing its argument
+	* NEWS: Don't mention dirfd; no longer needed.
+	* gnulib.modules: Remove dirfd.
+	* src/create.c (get_directory_entries): Remove the code dealing
+	with dirfd failures, as the new fdopendir replacement doesn't
+	close its argument so we don't need to call dirfd.  See
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-09/msg00208.html>

+
+	* NEWS: Fix wording typo in previous change.
+	Reported by Jim Meyering.
+
+	tar: live within system-supplied limits on file descriptors
+	* NEWS: Note the change.  Mention dirfd and fdopendir.
+	* gnulib.modules: Add dirfd and fdopendir.  The code was already
+	using fdopendir; dirfd is a new need.
+	* src/common.h (open_searchdir_flags, get_directory_entries):
+	(subfile_open, restore_parent_fd, tar_stat_close): New decls.
+	(check_exclusion_tags): Adjust signature to match code change.
+	* src/create.c (IMPOSTOR_ERRNO): New constant.
+	(check_exclusion_tags): First arg is now a struct tar_stat_info
+	const *, not an fd.  All callers changed.
+	(dump_regular_file, dump_file0): A zero fd represents an unused
+	slot, so play it safe if the fd member is zero here.  A negative
+	fd represents the negation of an errno value, so play it safe and
+	do not assign -1 to fd merely because an open fails.
+	(open_failure_recover, get_directory_entries, restore_parent_fd):
+	(subfile_open): New functions.	These help to recover from file
+	descriptor exhaustion.
+	(dump_dir, dump_file0): Use them.
+	(dump_file0): Use tar_stat_close instead of rolling our own close.
+	* src/incremen.c (scan_directory): Use get_directory_entries,
+	subfile_open, etc., to recover from file descriptor exhaustion.
+	* src/names.c (add_hierarchy_to_namelist): Likewise.
+	(collect_and_sort_names): A negative fd represents the negation
+	of an errno value, so play it safe and do not assign -1 to fd.
+	* src/tar.c (decode_options): Set open_searchdir_flags.
+	Add O_CLOEXEC to all the open flags.
+	(tar_stat_close): New function, which knows how to deal with
+	new convention for directory streams and file descriptors.
+	Diagnose 'close' failures.
+	(tar_stat_destroy): Use it.
+	* src/tar.h (struct tar_stat_info): New member dirstream.
+	fd now has the negative of an errno value, not merely -1, if
+	the file could not be opened, so that failures to reopen
+	directories
+	are better-diagnosed later.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add extrac11.at.

+	(cachedir_file_p, dump_file, check_exclusion_tags,

+	Adjust to new signatures, described below.
+	(name_fill_directory): Remove.
+	* src/compare.c (diff_file, diff_multivol): Use open_read_flags.
+	* src/create.c (struct exclusion_tag): Exclusion predicates
+	now take
+	a file descriptor, not a file name.
+	(add_exclusion_tag): Likewise.	All uses changed.
+	(cachedir_file_p): Likewise.
+	(check_exclusion_tags): The directory is now a file descriptor,
+	not a file name.  All uses changed.  Use openat for better
+	traversal.
+	(file_dumpable_p): Arg is now a struct stat, not a struct
+	tar_stat_info.	All uses changed.  Check the arg's file types too.
+	(dump_dir0, dump_dir, dump_file0, dump_file): Omit top_level and
+	parent_device args, since st->parent tells us that now.  All uses
+	changed.
+	(dump_dir): Likewise.  Also, omit fd arg for similar reasons.
+	Apply fdsavedir to a dup of the file descriptor, since we need a
+	file descriptor for openat etc. as well, and fdsavedir (perhaps
+	unwisely) consumes its file descriptor when successful.
+	Do not consume st->fd when successful; this simplifies the caller.
+	(create_archive): Allocate a file descriptor when retraversing
+	a directory, during incremental dumps.
+	(dump_file0): Use fstatat, openat, and readlinkat for better
+	traversal.
+	When opening a file, use the result of fstat on the file
+	descriptor
+	rather than the fstatat on the directory entry, to avoid some race
+	conditions.  No need to reopen the directory since we now
+	no longer
+	close it.  Change "did we open the file?" test from 0 <= fd to
+	0 < fd since fd == 0 now represents uninitialized.
+	(dump_file): Now accepts struct tar_stat_info describing parent,
+	not parent_device.  Also, accept basename and fullname of entry.
+	All uses changed.
+	* src/incremen.c (update_parent_directory): Accept struct
+	tar_stat_info for parent, not name.  All callers changed.
+	Use fstatat for safer directory traversal.
+	(procdir): Accept struct tar_stat_info, not struct stat and
+	dev_t, for info about directory.  All callers changed.
+	(scan_directory): Accept struct tar_stat_info, not name,
+	device, and cmdline, for info about directory.	All callers
+	changed.  Do not consume the file descriptor, since caller
+	might need it.	Use fstatat and openat for safer directory
+	traversal; also, use fstat after opening to double-check.
+	(name_fill_directory): Remove.
+	* src/names.c (add_hierarchy_to_namelist): Accept struct
+	tar_stat_info instead of device and cmdline.  All callers changed.
+	When descending into a subdirectory, use openat and fstat for
+	safer directory traversal.
+	(collect_and_sort_names): Use open and fstat for safer directory
+	traversal.  Set up struct tar_stat_info for callee's new API.
+	* src/tar.c (decode_options): Initialize open_read_flags
+	and fstatat_flags.
+	(tar_stat_destroy): Close st->fd if it is positive (not zero!).
+	* src/tar.h (struct tar_stat_info): New members parent, fd.
+	* src/update.c (update_archive): Adjust to dump_file's API change.
+	* tests/filerem02.at: Ignore stderr since its contents now depend
+	on the file system implementation.
+
+2010-09-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	tar: remove lint discovered by Sun C compiler
+	* src/common.h (WARN_ALL): Don't mask with 0xffffffff; on a 32-bit
+	host, 0xffffffff is of type 'unsigned int', which makes WARN_ALL
+	an unsigned int value that is too large to fit into an int, and
+	the C standard says that this has undefined behavior.  The mask is

+
+	tar: optimize -c --sparse when file is entirely sparse
+	* src/sparse.c (sparse_scan_file): If the file is entirely sparse,
+	that is, if ST_NBLOCKS is zero, don't bother scanning for nonzero
+	blocks.  Idea by Kit Westneat, communicated by Bernd Schubert in
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2010-08/msg00038.html>.
+	Also, omit unnecessary lseek at start of file.

+	Likewise.
+
+	tar: use ctime, not mtime, when checking placeholders
+	* src/extract.c (struct delayed_link): Rename member mtime
+	to ctime.
+	All uses changed to use ctime rather than mtime.

+
+	tar: add comment to link04.at test
+	* tests/link04.at: Add explanatory comment at head.
+
+	tar: fix 1.23 Solaris regression related to PRIV_SYS_LINKDIR
+	The idea was suggested by Petr Sumbera in the thread starting
+	here:
+	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2010-08/msg00000.html
+	* src/extract.c (set_mode): Save the errno of the chmod that

+	Invoke priv_set_restore_linkdir before execv or execlp, so that
+	the subprocess has the same privileges that tar originally did.
+
+	tar: handle files that occur multiple times but have link count 1
+	This patch was inspired by the following patch that addressed a
+	similar problem in GNU coreutils du:
+	http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git;h=efe53cc72b599979ea292754ecfe8abf7c839d22

+	times.
+	* src/names.c (allocated_entries): Renamed from allocated_names,
+	since the identifier's name was misleading.  All uses changed.

+
+	tar: change interdir_made from int to bool
+	* src/extract.c (maybe_recoverable, create_placeholder_file):

+	* src/misc.c (struct wd): Rename 'saved' to 'err', with new

+	* tests/extrac09.at: New file, to test for bug that was fixed.
+	* tests/testsuite.at: Include it.
+	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add it.
+
+	tar: go back to absolutifying filenames in normalize_filename
+	for now
+	* src/misc.c (normalize_filename): For now, go back to making
+	filenames absolute, even though this causes 'tar' to fail when
+	getcwd fails.  However, do not attempt to resolve ".." as this
+	does not work with symlinks.  Also, do the right thing with

+	Don't reject valid names such as ".".
+	(normalize_filename): Don't make it absolute; that way, we don't

+2010-03-17  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	Fix --remove-files.
+	Tar --remove-files relied on canonicalize_file_name,
+	which replaces symlinks in file name components with

+2006-09-27  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	* bootstrap: Use ${package} instead of hardcoding package name
+	* doc/tar.texi: Minor fix
+	* src/tar.c (doc0, doc1, initialize_argp_doc): Removed.  Rely on
+	the new argp method instead.

+2006-09-12  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	* README: Fix a typo
+
+2006-09-08  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Adjust to latest gnulib.

+	fcntl.h, fcntl_.h, inttypes_.h, lstat.c, lstat.h.
+	* tests/testsuite.at (AT_TAR_MKHIER): Use install-sh -d
+	rather than the no-longer-included mkinstalldirs.
+
+2006-09-08  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	* src/incremen.c (try_purge_directory): Initialize struct st.  Fix

+	version.
+
+	* bootstrap (intl_files_to_remove): Do not remove m4/inttypes-h.m4
+	and m4/inttypes-pri.m4
+
+2006-08-11  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* bootstrap: Set XGETTEXT_OPTIONS to flag our printf-format functions,
+	so that translators are warned about strings that are formats but
+	don't look like formats.  This might help prevent core dumps.
+	* configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Upgrade to need-formatstring-macros.
+	Suggested by Eric Blake to avoid problems like
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-07/msg00087.html>.
+	(AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Upgrade from 0.12.1 to 0.15.  The gettext
+	manual says we should use the version number normally expected of
+	maintainers, neither more nor less.
+
+	* bootstrap (get_translations):
+	Don't exclude ky.po; it is working again.
+
+2006-08-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* bootstrap (get_translations):
+	Don't exclude ja.po; it is working again.
+	Don't remove all old .po files if we're merely updating one.
+	* po/.cvsignore: Add Makevars.
+
+2006-08-07  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/tar.c: Work around limitation imposed by gettext 0.15
+	by concatenating strings with "\v" after translation.
+	(doc): Remove, splitting into:
+	(doc0, doc1): New constants.
+	(argp): Don't use doc; just initialize to NULL.
+	(initialize_argp_doc): New function.
+	(decode_options): Use it.
+
+	* bootstrap: Redo po file retrieval to match Bison's method,
+	since the translation project changed its index format.
+	Don't use --assume-autoconf; it's now replaced
+	by looking in configure.ac.
+	(m4/codeset.m4, m4/intdiv.m4, m4/inttypes-pri.m4, m4/isc-posix.m4):
+	(m4/lcmessage.m4, m4/onceonly_2_57.m4, m4/gettext.m4, m4/glibc21.m4):
+	(m4/inttypes_h.m4, m4/lib-ld.m4, m4/lib-prefix.m4, m4/po.m4):
+	(m4/stdint_h.m4, m4/uintmax_t.m4, m4/ulonglong.m4):
+	Don't rename to ..._gl.m4, as this is no longer needed.
+	(m4/geteext.m4): Patch to remove the need for intl/*.
+	Use autopoint manually, then remove the intl files,
+	then undo changes to gnulib files that autoreconf made,
+	and then run aclocal/autoconf/autoheader/automake.
+	This makes our bootstrap procedure closer to Bison's.
+	(po/Makevars): Generate automatically.
+	* configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Update from 2.59 to 2.60.
+	(gl_AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T, jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T): Remove.
+	* gnulib.modules: Add inttypes, stdint.
+	* lib/.cvsignore: Add close-stream.c, close-stream.h,
+	stdint.h, stdint_.h.
+	* po/Makefile: Remove; now automatically generated.
+
+	* src/incremen.c (read_incr_db_01): Check input strings more
+	carefully.  Do not pass arbitrary char values to isspace, as
+	this has undefined behavior.  Likewise for assigning arbitrary
+	uintmax_t values to other types.
+	(read_negative_num, read_unsigned_num, read_timespec):
+	New functions, to check input values a bit more carefully.
+	(read_num): Use read_unsigned_num.  New arg MAX_VAL;
+	all callers changed.
+	(read_incr_db_2): Use these new functions.
+	Use a consistent diagnostic for unexpected EOF.
+	(read_directory_file): Do not assign arbitrary uintmax_t value
+	to int.
+	(read_timespec, write_directory_file_entry, write_directory_file):
+	Handle negative time_t values correctly.  We don't bother to do
+	this with pre-2 formats, since presumably the time stamps were
+	output incorrectly.
+
+	* src/tar.c (doc): Don't use \v in an argument to gettext;
+	gettext 0.15 rejects this.
+
+2006-07-24  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>
+
+	* src/tar.c (decode_options): Do not require -L with -M -Hpax.
+	It could be needed in future, but currently it is not.
+	* src/create.c (to_chars_subst): Update comment regarding OLDGNU
+	vs. GNU format differences.
+	(mode_to_chars): Treat OLDGNU_FORMAT same as GNU_FORMAT. Fixes bug
+	reported by TAMUKI Shoichi <tamuki@linet.gr.jp>, which caused
+	equivalent `tar cf ...' and `tar rf ...' commands to produce
+	different archives.
+
+	* tests/append02.at: New test case
+	* tests/Makefile.am, tests/testsuite.at: Add append02.at
+
+2006-07-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* bootstrap: Adjust to today's change to gnulib-tool by invoking
+	it with --assume-autoconf='latest-stable'.
+
+2006-07-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	Adjust to recent gnulib changes.
+	* lib/.cvsignore: Remove atexit.c, exit.c, getndelim2.c, getndelim2.h,

+	attributes; this saves path-resolution time and allows us to avoid
+	changing mtime/ctime on Solaris when restoring atime as root.
+	Use O_DIRECTORY when opening directories, to avoid some race conditions.
+	Do not reset atime if mtime has changed.  Report an error if
+	we cannot reset atime.

+	(BILLION, LOG10_BILLION): New constants.
+	(to_decimal): Remove; superseded by inttostr.  All callers changed
+	to use umaxtostr.
+	(xheader_format_name): Don't assume pids and uintmax_t values
+	fit in 63 bytes (!) when printed.
+	(decode_record): Don't bother to check for ERANGE; an out of range
+	value must be treater than len_max anyway.
+	If the length is out of range, output it in the diagnostic.

+	(decode_time, gid_decoder, size_decoder, uid_decoder):
+	(sparse_size_decoder, sparse_offset_decoder, sparse_numblocks_decoder):
+	Ensure that the result of calling xstrtoumax is no larger than

+	a diagnostic.
+	(sparse_numblocks_decoder): Avoid buffer overrun/heap corruption:
+	use x2nrealloc, rather than `n *= 2' and xrealloc(p, n,....
+	(decode_time): Rewrite to accept time strings like
+	1119018481.000000000.  Before, such strings were always ignored.

+2005-04-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/buffer.c (reading_from_pipe): Remove.  All uses removed.

+2005-04-14  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>
+
+	* src/list.c: Handle Solaris 'X' type flag
+	* src/tar.h (SOLARIS_XHDTYPE): New define
+
+2005-04-06  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@mirddin.farlep.net>
+
+	* src/tar.c: Minor fixes to text messages. Proposed by Benno
+	Schulenberg.
+	* src/extract.c: Likewise
+	(extract_file): Assign orig_file_name
+	to save_name uniformly over the program. This fixes matching
+	directory names at the start of an archive volume.
+	* src/buffer.c (flush_write): Warn when the name of the archive
+	straddling volume boundary is longer than 100 characters. Earlier
+	behavior was to issue a fatal error.
+	(struct zip_magic): Reverted part of changes from 2005-04-04.
+	They make the maintenance too costly. Removing `unsigned'
+	qualifier from `magic' member should be enough.
+	* src/compare.c (diff_init): Read directory file if in listed
+	incremental. This prevents spurious 'Contents differ' diagnostics.
+	(diff_archive): Minor fixes to text messages
+	(diff_file,diff_dumpdir,diff_multivol): Assign orig_file_name
+	to save_name uniformly over the program. This fixes matching
+	directory names at the start of an archive volume.
+	* src/create.c: Assign orig_file_name
+	to save_name uniformly over the program. This fixes matching
+	directory names at the start of an archive volume.

+	* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.
+
+2005-04-04  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Rename from config to build-aux,
+	for reasons discussed in the thread beginning at
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2005-03/msg00119.html>.
+	* .cvsignore: Remove config; add build-aux.
+
+	* src/buffer.c (struct zip_magic): Use char arrays, not pointers.
+	The unsigned char * pointer ran afoul of pedantic C compilers, and
+	we didn't need pointers anyway.  Put the size field before the
+	data to avoid unnecessary padding.  All uses changed.
+	(magic) Make it const, since it doesn't change.  All uses changed.
+
+2005-04-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/xheader.c (decode_record): Don't dump core when given
+	a corrupted extended header.  Problem reported by Jim Meyering.
+	Also, check for other ways that the header might be invalid,
+	e.g., missing newline at end.  Do not allow keys with nulls.
+	Allow blanks before and after length, as POSIX requires.
+	Do not allow leading "-" in length.  Check for length overflow.
+	(xheader_decode, xheader_decode_global): Let decode_record
+	check for exhaustion of record.
+	(xheader_read): Null-terminate the extended record;
+	decode_record relies on this.
+
+2005-03-21  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* bootstrap (TP_URL): Change from
+	<http://www2.iro.umontreal.ca/~gnutra/po/maint/tar/> to
+	<http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/tar/> to avoid
+	some redirection glitches.
+	Use "trap - 0" rather than "trap 0" to fix a POSIX-conformance bug.
+	* doc/.cvsignore: Change "tar.info" to "tar.info*".  Sort.
+	* lib/.cvsignore: Add intprops.h (new gnulib file).
+
+2005-03-04  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>
+
+	* src/list.c (print_header): Print UID/GID in case of
+	empty user/group name. This could occur when dumping
+	files belonging to non-existing users and when listing
+	broken archives.
+	Reported by Igor Lautar.
+
+	* src/create.c: Correctly parse empty uname/gname
+	* src/sparse.c (sparse_scan_file): Bugfix. offset had
+	incorrect type.
+
+	* scripts/backup.in: Use `head -n 1'. Provide missing
+	argument to ${MT_STATUS}. Proposed by Jan Merka.
+	* scripts/backup.sh.in: Likewise. Fixed typo in
+	MT_OFFLINE assignment.
+	* scripts/restore.in (restore_fs): Use root_fs

+
+2005-02-11  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>
+
+	* THANKS: Added Tim Adye. Fixed UTF.
+	* src/list.c (read_header): Removed assignment to
+	oldgnu_header.isextended. It was breaking append mode.
+
+	* tests/append01.at: New test.
+	* tests/Makefile.am: Added append01.at
+	* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise
+
+2005-02-06  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>
+
+	* gnulib.modules: New file. List of required gnulib
+	modules.

+	* src/common.h (EXTRACT_OVER_PIPE): New macro
+	* src/compare.c: Code clean up.

+	* src/misc.c (exec_error,fork_error,dup2_error)
+	(pipe_error): Removed unneeded functions.
+	* src/system.c (sys_exec_command): Use xclose, xpipe,

+
+2005-02-05  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>

+	* bootstrap: Get setenv module from gnulib
+	* src/buffer.c: Do not use 8-bit chars in comments
+	* src/common.h (to_command_option)
+	(ignore_command_error_option): New globals
+	(sys_exec_command,sys_wait_command): New commands
+	* src/extract.c (extract_file): Handle to_command_option
+	Fix error recovery: decrease `size' by `written', not
+	by `count', otherwise tar misses the next header
+	Do not diagnose write error if to_command_option
+	is set, since the command may have exited prematurely.
+	It would be better to check for sigpipe, though.
+	(prepare_to_extract): Handle to_command_option
+	* src/misc.c (exec_error, fork_error, dup_error)
+	(pipe_error): New functions
+	* src/system.c (sys_exec_command)
+	(sys_wait_command): New functions
+	* src/tar.c: Handle new options --to-command,

+
+2005-02-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+	* src/list.c (from_header): New arg OCTAL_ONLY, normally false.
+	All uses changed.  Fix typo that sometimes suppressed all "Archive
+	contains obsolescent base-64 headers" warnings, not just the first
+	one.
+	(tar_checksum): Accept only octal checksums, since they aren't
+	supposed to overflow into weird formats.
+
+	Adjust to gnulib changes.
+	* lib/.cvsignore: Add chdir-long.c, chdir-long.h, memrchr.c,
+	memrchr.h, openat.c, openat.h.  Remove pathmax.h (added by
+	mistake, perhaps?), sysexit.h (my typo), xstrdup.c (gnulib removed
+	this file).  Sort entries.
+
+2005-02-04  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>

+	* tests/sparse01.at: Extract and compare sparse file
+
+2005-02-02  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>

+	missing gettext markers
+	(decode_record): Rewritten using caller-provided handler and

+
+2004-02-21  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>
+
+	* src/create.c (dump_file0): The conditional at line
+	1296 prevented incremental backups on individual files
+	from working, as reported by Andreas Schuldei
+	<andreas@schuldei.org>.
+
+	This is due to the condition
+
+	  (0 < top_level || !incremental_option)
+
+	Removing it makes incremental backups work for individual
+	files as well as for directories. On the other hand, it does
+	not affect other functionality, as shown by the reasoning below:
+
+	To begin with, the two parts of this condition are mutually
+	superfluous, because
+
+	  1) when top_level < 0, incremental_option == 1
+	  so the condition yields false
+	  2) when top_level >= 0, incremental_option == 0
+	  so the condition yields true.
+
+	In other words, it is completely equivalent to
+
+	      (!incremental_option)
+
+	Now, let's consider the effect of its removal. There are two cases:
+
+	1) when incremental_option==1
+	This means incremental backup in progress. In this case dump_file
+	is invoked only for directories or for files marked with 'Y' by
+	get_directory_contents. The latter are those that did not meet the
+	condition in incremen.c:242, which is exactly the same condition
+	as this at create.c:1296. So, for these files the check
+	(!incremental_option) is useless, since the rest of the
+	conditional will yield false anyway. On the other hand, if
+	dump_file is invoked on a directory, the conditional will yield
+	false due to !S_ISDIR assertion, so these will be processed as usual.
+
+	Thus, for this case the extra condition (!incremental_option) is
+	irrelevant, and its removal won't alter the behavior of tar,
+	*except* that it will enable incremental backups on individual
+	files, which is the wanted effect.
+
+	2) when incremental_option==0
+	In this case the condition yields true and its removal does not
+	affect the functionality.

+	set to POSIX (or reading subcommand is requested).
+

+	<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=230872>.
+
+	* doc/tar.texi (posix compliance): Remove.  The whole section
+	was a misunderstanding of what POSIXLY_CORRECT is supposed to
+	mean.  The GNU Coding Standards says that POSIXLY_CORRECT
+	is for disabling extensions that are incompatible with POSIX:
+	it is not for disabling compatible extensions.  All references
+	to this section removed.
+	(posix): This format is created only if the posix format is
+	specified; it is no longer created if gnu format is specified
+	and POSIXLY_CORRECT is set.
+	* src/tar.c (decode_options): Ignore POSIXLY_CORRECT.
+	POSIX does not specify the behavior of tar, so we should
+	not worry about POSIXLY_CORRECT here.

+	Synchronize with Gettext 0.13.1, Automake 1.8, Autoconf 2.59,
+	and translation website.
+
+	* bootstrap: Don't bother skipping codeset.m4, glibc21.m4,
+	intdiv0.m4, inttypes_h.m4, inttypes.m4, inttypes-pri.m4,
+	isc-posix.m4, and lcmessage.m4 from gnulib.  This list of files is
+	a bit obsolete anyway, now that gettext 0.13.1 is out.  Also, the
+	files are replaced by autoreconf.  Also, there seems to be a bug
+	in gettext/autoconf/automake if we try to omit these files after
+	autoreconf has replaced them, even though the gettext manual says
+	they're optional.  So give up and just include them for now, even
+	though they make 'configure' longer and slower.
+
+	Change translation URL from
+	<http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/maint/tar/> to
+	<http://www2.iro.umontreal.ca/~gnutra/po/maint/tar/> to

+
+	* lib/xstrtol.c (strtoimax): Guard declaration with

+	(set_stat): Likewise.
+	(apply_nonancestor_delayed_set_stat): New arg 'after_symlinks'.
+	If false, stop when encountering a struct whose 'after_symlinks'

+	read_fatal_details): Don't assume size_t is unsigned long.
+
+	* src/buffer.c (flush_read): If read_full_records_option, try to
+	fill the input buffer, as --delete -f - needs this.
+
+2000-10-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* m4/strerror_r.m4 (AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R): Port to autoconf 2.13.

+	(init_volume_number): Check for global_volno overflow.
+	(new_volume): Check for global_volno overflow.
+
+	* src/tar.c (decode_options):
+	Check that volume label is not too long to overflow
+	name in tar header block.
+
+	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rebox.el.
+
+	* configure.in (HAVE_DECL_STRERROR_R): Remove our handwritten code.
+	(AC_FUNC_STRERROR_R): Use this instead.
+
+2000-10-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+

+	Don't use NULL, for portability.
+
+	* m4/fnmatch.m4: Add "working" to message.

+	(gid_to_gname): Don't invoke setgrent.
+	(namelist): Now static, not global.
+	(nametail): New var.  All uses of namelast changed to use
+	nametail, with one extra level of indirection.
+	(name_gather): Use memcpy instead of strncpy + assignment of NUL.
+	(name_match): Set nametail too, when setting namelist to null.
+	(add_hierarchy_to_namelist): Change type of dir arg from char * to
+	struct name *, so that we don't have to look up the name again
+	here.  Get change_dir from dir rather than as a separate arg.  Add
+	dirsize arg, and pass it along to get_directory_contents.  Remove
+	unnecessary check of directory type.
+	(new_name): Do not append a slash if PATH already ends in one.
+	(avoided_names, struct avoided_name): Remove.
+	(avoided_name_table): New var, replacing avoided_names.
+	(hash_avoided_name, compare_avoided_names): New function.
+	(add_avoided_name, is_avoided_name): Use hash table rather than
+	linked list.
+
+	* src/buffer.c (_GNU_SOURCE): Remove; autoconf now does this.
+	(child_open_for_compress, child_open_for_uncompress,
+	close_archive): Propagate any failure of the compression process
+	back to "tar".
+	(open_archive, flush_write, flush_read, close_archive): Do not
+	allocate an array of size PATH_MAX, as PATH_MAX might be (size_t)
+	-1.  Instead, allocate an array with the size that's needed.
+	(open_archive): Don't bother checking S_ISCHR of /dev/null.
+	(backspace_output): Don't try to backspace past start of archive.
+	(close_archive): Remove special case for DELETE_SUBCOMMAND.
+
+	* acconfig.h (_GNU_SOURCE, DEFAULT_ARCHIVE, DEFAULT_BLOCKING,

+	that we needn't put an entry into acconfig.h.
+	(ALL_LINGUAS): Add da.
+	(AC_C_BACKSLASH_A): Remove; jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG now does this.
+	(AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add stdbool.h (for hash.h users), wctype.h
+	(for strtol.c).

+	(jm_PREREQ_ADDEXT, jm_PREREQ_ERROR, jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG): Add.
+	(AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Remove execlp; no longer needed.
+	(AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Add clock_gettime; AC_SEARCH_LIBS wasn't enough.

+	declare base_name instead.
+
+	* lib/basename.h, lib/execlp.c, lib/getpagesize.h, lib/mkdir.c:
+	Remove these files.
+	* lib/getstr.c, lib/getstr.h, lib/hash.h, lib/hash.h, lib/prepargs.c,
+	lib/prepargs.h, lib/savedir.c, lib/savedir.h: New files.
+	* lib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST, noinst_HEADERS, libtar_a_SOURCES):
+	Adjust to the above changes.
+
+	* lib/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Remove ../src/ansi2knr.
+
+	* src/open3.c: Remove.
+
+	* src/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Remove ansi2knr.
+	(tar_SOURCES): Remove open3.c.
+	(INCLUDES): Remove -I.., as automake does that.
+	(OMIT_DEPENDENCIES): ../lib/fnmatch.h -> fnmatch.h.  Add localedir.h.
+
+	The following changes are to put LOCALEDIR into localedir.h instead
+	of passing it on the command line.
+	(DEFS): Remove.
+	(DISTCLEANFILES): New macro.
+	(localedir.h): New rule.
+	(rmt.o tar.o): Now depend on localedir.h.

+
+	* tests/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Remove ansi2knr.
+	(TESTS): Add extrac04.sh, and restore delete02.sh.
+	(DEFS): Remove; LOCALEDIR is now done via localedir.h.
+	(INCLUDES): Remove -I.. as automake does this now.
+
+	* src/rtapelib.c (rexec): Don't declare unless using it.
+	(do_command): Simplify signal-handling code slightly.
+
+	* src/delete.c (blocks_needed): Remove.  All uses changed to use
+	blocking_factor - new_blocks.
+	(acting_as_filter): New var.
+	(write_record, delete_archive_members): Use acting_as_filter
+	rather than archive == STDIN_FILENO to detect whether we're acting
+	as a filter, as open can return STDIN_FILENO in some cases.
+	(delete_archive_members): Ignore zero blocks if
+	ignore_zeros_option is nonzero.  Fix bug that messed up last
+	output block: write_eot can't be used here, as it gets confused
+	when the input is at end of file.
+
+	* src/compare.c (diff_archive): Do not impose an arbitrary limit on
+	symbolic link contents length.  Pass directory size to
+	get_directory_contents.
+
+	* m4/decl.m4, m4/error.m4, m4/mbstate_t.m4, m4/prereq.m4,
+	m4/strerror_r.m4: New files.

+
+	* src/mangle.c (extract_mangle):
+	Fix diagnostic with wrong number of %s'es.
+
+	* lib/fnmatch.c (fnmatch):
+	Fix some FNM_FILE_NAME and FNM_LEADING_DIR bugs,
+	e.g. fnmatch("d*/*1", "d/s/1", FNM_FILE_NAME) incorrectly yielded zero.
+
+	* lib/full-write.c (full_write): Some buggy drivers return 0 when you
+	fall off a device's end.  Detect this.
+
+	* src/system.h (IN_CTYPE_DOMAIN): Renamed from CTYPE_DOMAIN.  All
+	uses changed.
+	(open): Remove macro; we no longer support EMUL_OPEN3.  Do not
+	include <pathmax.h> and directory include files like <dirent.h>;
+	no longer used.  Include <savedir.h> instead.
+	(closedir, signed_char): remove macro; no longer used.
+	(bool, false, true): Include <stdbool.h> if you have the include
+	file, otherwise define.
+
+	* src/misc.c:
+	(is_dot_or_dotdot, closedir_error, closedir_warn, opendir_error,
+	opendir_warn, readdir_error): Remove; no longer needed.
+	(safer_rmdir): Strip leading ./ (or .// or ./// or ././ or etc.)
+	before deciding whether we're trying to remove ".".
+	(remove_any_file): Try unlink first if we are not root.  Use
+	savedir when recursively removing directories, to avoid exhausting
+	file descriptors.
+	(savedir_error, savedir_warn, symlink_error): New functions.
+
+	* src/list.c: (read_and): Do not invoke
+	apply_nonancestor_delayed_set_stat; DO_SOMETHING is now
+	responsible for that.  Do not invoke apply_delayed_set_stat; our
+	caller is now responsible for that.
+	(read_header): Use signed char instead of signed_char.  Prevent
+	later references to current_header from mistakenly treating it as
+	an old GNU header.
+	(from_header): Quote invalid base-64 strings in diagnostics.
+	(time_from_header): Do not warn about future timestamps in
+	archive; check_time now does that.
+	(print_header): Quote unknown file types.
+	(skip_member): New function, replacing skip_extended_headers and
+	now skipping the whole member instead of just the extended
+	headers.  All callers changed.  This makes the code handle
+	extended headers uniformly, and fixes some bugs.
+
+	* src/update.c (update_archive): Use skip_member.
+
+	* src/extract.c (we_are_root): Now global.
+	(struct delayed_symlink): New type.
+	(delayed_symlink_head): New var.
+	(extr_init, fatal_exit): Invoke extract_finish on fatal errors,
+	not apply_delayed_set_stat.
+	(set_mode, set_stat): Pointer args are now const pointers.
+	(check_time): New function.
+	(set_stat): Warn if setting a file's timestamp to be the future.
+	(make_directories): Do not save and restore errno.
+	(maybe_recoverable): Set errno to ENOENT if we cannot make missing
+	intermediate directories.
+	(extract_archive): Invoke apply_nonancestor_delayed_set_stat here,
+	not in caller.  Extract potentially dangerous symbolic links more
+	carefully, deferring their creation until the end, and using a
+	regular file placeholder in the meantime.  Do not remove trailing
+	/ and /. from file names.  Do not bother checking for ".." when
+	checking whether a directory loops back on itself, as loopbacks
+	can occur with symlinks too.  Also, in that case, do not bother
+	saving and restoring errno; just set it to EEXIST.
+	(apply_nonancestor_delayed_set_stat): A prefix is a potential
+	ancestor if it ends in slash too (as well as ending in a char just
+	before slash).
+	(apply_delayed_set_stat): Remove.
+	(apply_delayed_symlinks, extract_finish): New functions.
+
+	* doc/fdl.texi: New file.
+	* doc/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add fdl.texi.
+	($(srcdir)/tar.info): Add fdl.texi.  Invoke makeinfo with --no-split.
+	* doc/tar.texi: Add Free Documentation License.  New section
+	"Overwrite Old Files", and revamp that section to make it easier to
+	follow.  "tar" -> "GNU tar" where appropriate.  Migrate getdate
+	documentation into getdate.texi.  Fix several minor typos.  Describe
+	TAR_OPTIONS.  Describe incompatibility between incremental backups and
+	--atime-preserve.  Describe incompatibility between --verify and other
+	options.  Mention that tar normally removes symbolic links rather than
+	following them, when extracting a file of the same name.
+
+	* THANKS: Add gpoul.  Change skip's address.
+
+	* po/POTFILES.in: Add lib/human.c.
+
+	* src/common.h (namelist, namelast): Remove decls.
+	(we_are_root, extract_finish, skip_member, savedir_error,
+	savedir_warn, symlink_error, gnu_list_name): New decls.
+	(apply_delayed_set_stat, apply_nonancestor_delayed_set_stat,
+	skip_extended_headers, is_dot_or_dotdot, closedir_error,
+	closedir_warn, opendir_error, opendir_warn, readdir_error,
+	readdir_warn): Remove decls.
+	(get_directory_contents): New off_t arg.
+	(addname): Now returns struct name *.
+
+	* src/tar.h, tests/genfile.c: Fix comments.
+
+	* src/create.c: Include hash.h.
+	(gnu_list_name): Remove decl.
+	(struct link): Remove "next" member.
+	(linklist): Remove.
+	(start_header): Say "leading `FOO'" rather than "`FOO' prefix" for
+	consistency with other diagnostics.
+	(deal_with_sparse): Check for I/O error when closing the file.
+	(create_archive): Do not allocate an array of size PATH_MAX, as
+	PATH_MAX might be (size_t) -1.  Instead, allocate an array with
+	the size that's needed.
+	(hash_link, compare_links): New functions.
+	(dump_file): Do not exhaust open file descriptors when descending
+	deeply into a directory, by using savedir rather than
+	opendir/readdir.  Do not zero-fill the name buffer unnecessarily.
+	Hash the set of links already created, instead of using a linked
+	list.  Fix some bugs in outputting sparse files which caused the
+	sparse tables to be incorrect.  When a file unexpectedly shrinks,
+	output zeros rather than garbage.  Do not allocate an array of
+	size PATH_MAX, as PATH_MAX might be (size_t) -1.  Instead,
+	allocate an array with the size that's needed.
+
+	* src/incremen.c: Include hash.h.
+	(struct directory): Remove "next", "dir_text".  Change "name" to
+	be char[1] with struct hack, not const char *.  Add "found".
+	(directory_list): Remove.  Replaced by directory_table.
+	(directory_table): New var.
+	(nfs_string): Renamed from nfs.
+	(hash_directory, compare_directories): New functions.
+	(note_directory): Now returns struct directory *.  First arg is
+	now const pointer.  struct stat arg is now dev_t, ino_t, nfs.
+	Remove text arg.  New "found" arg, basically corresponding to the
+	old text arg not being null.  All callers changed.
+	(note_directory, find_directory): Use hash table rather than
+	linked list.
+	(get_directory_contents): New arg "device".  Use savedir to do the
+	hard work.  Save the nfs-ness of stat_data, since it might change
+	under us.  Use note_directory instead of find_directory to save
+	some work.  When adding an "A" record, do it with
+	add_to_accumulator instead of cheating with strcat.
+	(read_directory_file): Use "+" flag before device to indicate
+	whether it was NFS.  Fix typo in checking for strtoul error.
+	(write_directory_file_entry): New function.
+	(write_directory_file): Use it, and use the hash routines to
+	traverse the directory table.
+	(gnu_restore): Use savedir rather than opendir/readdir.
+
+	* src/tar.c: Include localedir.h, prepargs.h.
+	(long_options): Now static.
+	(long_options, usage, decode_options): -j is now short for
+	--bzip2, and -I is now an alias for -T.
+	(decode_options, main): argv is not const pointer now.
+	(decode_options): Invoke prepend_default_options to support
+	TAR_OPTIONS.  In diagnostic, mention the string that was the
+	invalid blocking factor, tape length, group, owner, or record
+	size.  --delete is no longer incompatible with -f -, undoing
+	2000-01-07 change.
+	(main): Invoke extract_finish at end of extraction.
+
+	* src/rmt.c: Include localedir.h.
+	(main): Update copyright date to 2000.
+
+	* doc/getdate.texi: New file, taken from fileutils 4.0.27, with the
+	following changes: Use @sc where appropriate.  Document the ranges of
+	supported times more precisely.  Add Eggert to getdate authors.
+	Document old Latin 12m/12pm tradition.  Remove list of alphabetic time
+	zone names, as it wasn't correct and people shouldn't be relying on it
+	anyway.  Relative items also account for non-DST adjustments.  Fix
+	some misspellings.
+
+	* lib/prepargs.c, lib/prepargs.h, tests/extrac04.sh: New file.
+
+	* tests/ignfail.sh: opendir -> savedir in diagnostics.
+
+	* tests/preset.in: Set LANGUAGE to the empty string, for some
+	brain damaged host.
+
+2000-10-20  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* m4/fnmatch.m4: Mention the GNU C library.
+
+2000-10-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* m4/fnmatch.m4: Add a couple more test cases to catch bugs in

+
+2000-10-17  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/human.c (<limits.h>): Do not include; human.h does it if needed.

+
+	* lib/human.h (<limits.h>): Include if HAVE_LIMITS_H.
+	(CHAR_BIT): Define if not defined.
+

+
+2000-07-31  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (quotearg_n_options):
+	Don't make the initial slot vector a constant,
+	since it might get modified.
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c: Add support for more than one preallocated slot.
+
+2000-07-30  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (quotearg_n_options):
+	Preallocate a slot 0 buffer, so that the caller
+	can always quote one small component of a "memory exhausted" message
+	in slot 0.
+
+2000-07-23  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c:
+	Include <wchar.h> even if ! (HAVE_MBRTOWC && 1 < MB_LEN_MAX), so that
+	mbstate_t is always defined.
+
+	Do not inspect MB_LEN_MAX, since it's incorrectly defined to be 1 in
+	some GCC installations, and this configuration error is likely to be
+	common.
+
+2000-07-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c:
+	When the system forces us to redefine mbstate_t, shadow its mbsinit
+	function.  From Bruno Haible.
+
+2000-07-14  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/xmalloc.c: Simplify exhausted message.

+	* lib/quotearg.h: Update copyright date; from Jim Meyering.
+
+2000-07-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

+	* lib/quotearg.h (enum quoting style):
+	New constant clocale_quoting_style.
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c:
+	(quoting_style_args, quoting_style_vals, quotearg_buffer_restyled):
+	Add support for clocale_quoting_style, undoing previous change to
+	locale_quoting_style.
+
+2000-07-10  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c:
+	<wchar.h>: Include only if HAVE_MBRTOWC && 1 < MB_LEN_MAX,
+	since otherwise we don't need it.
+	(MB_CUR_MAX): Redefine to 1 if ! (HAVE_MBRTOWC && 1 < MB_LEN_MAX),
+	since we don't do multibytes in that case.
+	(quotearg_buffer_restyled): If a unibyte locale, don't bother to
+	invoke multibyte primitives.
+
+	* m4/mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T):
+	Renamed from AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.  All uses changed.
+	Change from a two-part test, which defines both HAVE_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT
+	and mbstate_t, to a single-part test that simply defines mbstate_t.
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (mbrtowc): Do not use HAVE_WCHAR_H in the definition.
+	Use defined mbstate_t, not HAVE_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT,
+	to decide whether to define the BeOS workaround macro;
+	this adjusts to the change to AC_MBSTATE_T.
+
+	* m4/strerror_r.m4: New file.
+
+2000-07-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

+	for right quote.
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (struct quoting_options):
+	Simplify quote_these_too dimension.
+	From Bruno Haible  <haible@clisp.cons.org>.
+
+	* m4/mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT):
+	Test for mbstate_t only if the test
+	for an object-type mbstate_t fails.
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (mbrtowc): Declare returned type, since BeOS doesn't.
+
+2000-07-03  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* m4/mbstate_t.m4 (AC_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT): Port to autoconf 2.13.
+	Add AC_CHECK_HEADERS(stdlib.h), since we use HAVE_STDLIB_H.
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (mbrtowc):
+	Assign to *pwc, and return 1 only if result is nonzero.
+	(iswprint): Define to ISPRINT if we are substituting our own mbrtowc.
+
+2000-07-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (mbstate_t):
+	Do not define; it should be defined with AC_CHECK_TYPE.
+
+2000-06-26  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* m4/mbstate_t.m4: Include stdio.h before wchar.h, to work around
+	a bug in glibc 2.1.3.
+
+	* lib/xmalloc.c: Fix inaccurate comment for xrealloc.
+
+2000-06-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (ISASCII): Add #undef and move definition to follow
+	inclusion of wctype.h to work around solaris2.6 namespace pollution.
+	(ISPRINT): Likewise.
+	Reported by Tom Tromey.
+
+2000-06-15  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/human.c (adjust_value): New function.
+	(human_readable_inexact): Apply rounding style even when printing
+	approximate values.
+
+	* lib/human.c: Avoid shadowing warnings.
+	From Jim Meyering.
+
+2000-06-14  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/human.c (human_readable_inexact): Allow an input block size
+	that is not a multiple of the output block size, and vice versa.
+
+	* lib/getdate.y (get_date): Apply relative times after time zone
+	indicator, not before.
+
+2000-05-31  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* m4/largefile.m4: Rewrite so that we don't need to run getconf,
+	and thus don't need AC_CANONICAL_HOST.
+
+	(AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_FLAGS, AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_SPACE_APPEND): Remove.
+	(AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro.
+	(AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): Change arguments from
+	CODE-TO-SET-DEFAULT to VALUE, INCLUDES, FUNCTION-BODY.  All uses
+	changed.  Instead of inspecting the output of getconf, try to
+	compile the test program without and with the macro definition.
+	(AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST or check for
+	getconf.  Instead, check for the needed flags by compiling test
+	programs.
+
+	* configure.in (AC_CANONICAL_HOST): Remove; the largefile stuff no

+	* m4/largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Define _XOPEN_SOURCE to be
+	500, instead of _GNU_SOURCE to be 1, to work around glibc 2.1.3

+	_GNU_SOURCE.
+
+2000-05-02  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* m4/largefile.m4 (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE):
+	Define _GNU_SOURCE if this is needed to make

+	inspecting host and OS, to decide whether to define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE.
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (mbrtowc, mbstat_t):
+	Add definitions if !HAVE_MBSTATE_T_OBJECT.
+	(<wctype.h>): Include if HAVE_WCTYPE_H.

+
+	* lib/getdate.y: Handle two-digit years with leading zeros correctly.
+	(textint): New typedef.
+	(parser_control): Changed from struct parser_control to typedef
+	(for consistency).  Member year changed from int to textint.  All
+	uses changed.

+	members.
+	(tID): Removed; not used.
+	(tDAY, tDAY_UNIT, tDAYZONE, tHOUR_UNIT, tID, tLOCAL_ZONE,
+	tMERIDIAN, tMINUTE_UNIT, tMONTH, tMONTH_UNIT tSEC_UNIT, tSNUMBER,
+	tUNUMBER, tYEAR_UNIT, tZONE, o_merid): Now of type <intval>.
+	(tSNUMBER, tUNUMBER): Now of type <textintval>.
+	(date, number, to_year): Use width of number in digits, not its
+	value, to determine whether it's a 2-digit year, or a 2-digit
+	time.
+	(yylex): Store number of digits of numeric tokens.  Return '?' for
+	unknown identifiers, rather than (unused) tID.
+
+2000-01-16  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* lib/quotearg.c (quotearg_buffer_restyled):

+	longer meant for humans, and is locale-independent.

+	unlink if the rmdir fails because the file isn't a directory.

+	(closedir): New macro, if CLOSEDIR_VOID.
+
+	* src/rmt.c, src/rtapelib.c (decode_oflag):
+	O_APPEND might not be defined.
+
+	* src/list.c: (read_and, list_archive):
+	Quote arbitrary strings in diagnostics.

+	Add support for --overwrite.
+	(extract_sparse_file, extract_archive):
+	Quote arbitrary strings in diagnostics.
+	(extract_archive): By default, warn about ".." in member names, and skip them.
+	Don't open files with O_NONBLOCK or O_APPEND.
+	Open with O_TRUNC only if --overwrite; otherwise, use O_EXCL to avoid
+	overwriting them.  Pass only rwxrwxrwx permissions to `open' and `mkdir',
+	minus the current umask.  Keep track of intermediate directories made,
+	to avoid looping when making x/../x when x doesn't exist; the
+	earlier code solved this in a different way that didn't fit well
+	into the new scheme.  Don't extract permissions onto existing

+	permissions to new directories permanently; just do it temporarily.
+	Remove no-longer-needed hack with MSDOS and directory time stamps.
+	(apply_delayed_set_stat): New argument specifies which directories to
+	fix statuses of.  Do not wait until the end of extraction to fix

+	Don't assume that gettext preserves errno.
+
+	* src/create.c (<quotearg.h>): New include.
+	(start_header): Use `member names' to refer to archive member names, not
+	`archive names'.  Warn about `..' in member names.
+	(finish_sparse_file, dump_file):
+	Quote arbitrary strings in diagnostics.
+	(finish_sparse_file, dump_file):
+	Don't assume that gettext preserves errno.
+	(dump_file): Don't use `access' to determine whether a directory is readable;
+	this isn't reliable if tar is setuid.  Use `opendir' instead.
+	Check for readdir and closedir failures.
+	Don't dump sockets as if they were fifos; just warn and skip.
+
+	* src/delete.c (move_archive):
+	Don't report fatal error merely because sizes don't fit
+	into struct mtop values; fall back on lseek instead.
+	Say `Cannot' uniformly, instead of `Could not' sometimes and `Cannot' others.
+	Say `reposition' instead of `re-position'.

+
+	* src/common.h (FATAL_ERROR): Use new fatal_exit function to exit.
+	(FATAL_ERROR, USAGE): Don't return 0.
+	(enum old files): New enum.
+	(old_files_option): New variable, replacing keep_old_files_option and
+	unlink_first_option.
+	(apply_delayed_set_stat): Now takes char const * param.
+	(fatal_exit, contains_dot_dot, chdir_fatal, close_error,

+	Don't assume that gettext preserves errno.
+
+	(xdup2): Don't report errno if dup returns an unexpected nonnegative value.
+	(open_archive): Reject multivolume verify attempts a bit earlier.
+	Rename local variable `access', in case it's defined by system header.
+
+	(open_archive, backspace_output): Use `Cannot' uniformly, instead of
+	`Could not' sometimes and `Cannot' others.
+
+	(open_archive, flush_read, flush_archive, close_archive, new_volume):
+	Quote arbitrary strings in diagnostics.
+
+	(read_error): Set archive to STDOUT_FILENO temporarily when writing
+	archive buffer.
+
+	(init_volume_number): Check for input and output errors in volno_file.
+
+	(new_volume): Use new fatal_exit function to exit, and new xfork
+	function to fork.
+
+	* m4/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add c-bs-a.m4.
+
+	* Makefile.am (ACINCLUDE_INPUTS): Add $(M4DIR)/c-bs-a.m4.

+
+	* src/compare.c (diff_archive):
+	Do not set errno to EPIPE; we no longer use perror.
+
+	* src/create.c (dump_file):
+	If a parent directory said that a file should be there but it is
+	absent, diagnose it as being removed in the meantime.
+	Do not pass meaningless errno to ERROR when reporting that the
+	file changed as we read it.
+	Report that a file changed if its ctime changes; this is more
+	sensitive than mtime+size, and more accurate.
+
+	* src/incremen.c (enum children): New type.
+	(struct directory): Change old char allnew member to new enum children
+	children member.
+	All uses changed.
+	(get_directory_contents): When doing an incremental dump that does
+	not cross filesystem boundaries, dump the mount points, even though
+	they are in a different filesystem.  This is for convenience when
+	restoring, and for consistency with non-incremental dumps.
+	This requires a 3-way flag for keeping track of which children we want,
+	so we use enum children rather than boolean.
+
+	* src/open3.c (modes): Remove.
+	(open3): Remove unportable assumptions about flag encodings.
+	Use `stat' instead of `access' for testing file existence,
+	to avoid problems with setuid programs.
+
+	* src/names.c (name_next): If file names are given both in the
+	command line (e.g. via -C) and in a file (via -T), do not
+	ignore the command-line names.

+
+	* doc/tar.texi: Clarify getdate authorship.

+
+	* lib/Makefile.am (DISTCLEANFILES): New macro.
+
+	* configure.in (tar_fnmatch_hin):
+	Remove; it runs afoul of a bug in autoconf 2.13.
+	Instead, always link fnmatch.h to some file, even if it's a throwaway.
+
+1999-11-19  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+	* m4/largefile.m4: Update serial.
+
+1999-11-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

+	(write_error): Arg is now ssize_t.
+	(child_pid): Now pid_t.
+	(available_space_after): Now size_t.
+
+	(child_open_for_compress, child_open_for_uncompress, flush_write,
+	open_archive, flush_write, write_error, flush_read, close_archive):
+	Use pid_t, ssize_t, size_t when appropriate.  Remove now-useless
+	casts.  Use unsigned long to print *_t types, except use
+	STRINGIFY_BIGINT for off_t.
+
+	* src/delete.c (records_read): Now daddr_t.
+	(move_archive): Arg is now daddr_t.  Check for overflow when
+	computing offset.
+	(move_archive, delete_archive_members): Use daddr_t, off_t when
+	appropriate.  Remove now-useless casts.
+
+	* src/rmt.h (rmt_read__, rmt_write__): Now returns ssize_t.
+	(rmt_lseek): Now returns off_t.
+
+	* src/create.c (to_oct):
+	Now static.  Value arg is now uintmax_t.  Accept new args
+	giving name of type of octal field, for error messages.  Report an
+	error if the value is too large to fit in the field.
+	(gid_to_oct, major_to_oct, minor_to_oct, mode_to_oct, off_to_oct,
+	size_to_oct, time_to_oct, uid_to_oct, uintmax_to_oct): New functions.
+
+	(write_eot, write_long, finish_header, deal_with_sparse,
+	finish_sparse_file, dump_file): Use dev_t, off_t, ssize_t, size_t when
+	appropriate.  Remove now-useless casts.  Use unsigned long to print
+	*_t types, except use STRINGIFY_BIGINT for off_t.
+
+	(find_new_file_size): 1st arg is now off_t*.
+	(finish_sparse_file): Args now use off_t, not long.
+	Check for lseek error.
+	(create_archive, dump_file): Cast -1 to dev_t when necessary.
+	(dump_file): Device arg is now dev_t.
+	Avoid overflow when testing whether file has holes
+	by using the new ST_NBLOCKSIZE macro.
+
+	* src/incremen.c (struct accumulator, add_to_accumulator,
+	get_directory_contents, add_hierarchy_to_namelist, gnu_restore):
+	Use size_t for sizes.
+	(struct directory, get_directory_contents, add_hierarchy_to_namelist):
+	Use dev_t, ino_t for devices and inodes.
+	(gnu_restore): Use off_t for file offsets.
+	(struct directory): Use char for flags.  Add new flag `nfs'.
+	(nfs): New constant
+	(NFS_FILE_STAT): New macro.
+	(note_directory): Accept struct stat * instead of
+	device and inode number.  All callers changed.
+	(note_directory, get_directory_contents):
+	Use NFS_FILE_STAT to determine whether directory is an NFS directory.
+	(write_dir_file): Cast time_t to unsigned long before printing as %lu.
+
+	* src/common.h (record_size, struct name, struct sp_array,
+	available_space_after):
+	Use size_t for sizes.
+	(save_sizeleft, save_totsize, current_block_ordinal, skip_file):
+	Use off_t for file offsets.
+	(struct name): dir_contents is now const char *, not char *.
+	(dump_file, get_directory_contents): Use dev_t for devices.
+	(to_oct): Remove decl.
+	(GID_TO_OCT, MAJOR_TO_OCT, MINOR_TO_OCT, MODE_TO_OCT, SIZE_TO_OCT,
+	UID_TO_OCT, UINTMAX_TO_OCT, OFF_TO_OCT, TIME_TO_OCT, STRINGIFY_BIGINT,
+	GID_FROM_OCT, MAJOR_FROM_OCT, MINOR_FROM_OCT, MODE_FROM_OCT,
+	OFF_FROM_OCT, SIZE_FROM_OCT, TIME_FROM_OCT, UID_FROM_OCT,
+	UINTMAX_FROM_OCT): New macros.
+	(gid_to_oct, major_to_oct, minor_to_oct, mode_to_oct, off_to_oct,
+	size_to_oct, time_to_oct, uid_to_oct, uintmax_to_oct,
+	stringify_uintmax_t_backwards, gid_from_oct, major_from_oct,
+	minor_from_oct, mode_from_oct, off_from_oct, size_from_oct,
+	time_from_oct, uid_from_oct, uintmax_from_oct): New decls.
+	(print_for_mkdir): 2nd arg is now mode_t.
