2020-06-24  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Accept only position-sensitive (file-selection) options in file
	list files.

	Using such options as -f, -z, etc. is senseless in the file
	list file
	and bypasses the option consistency checks in decode_options.

	only options related to file selection (a.k.a position-sensitive
	options)
	are allowed in files.

	* src/transform.c (parse_transform_expr):
	Diagnose ‘--transform='s'’ instead of continuing past '\0'.

2020-02-15  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix handling of linked rename chains in incremental backups

	* src/incremen.c: Change the meaning of the DIRF_RENAMED flag.
	Now it
	marks a directory which is the last one in a chain of renames.
	Regular renamed directories are recognized by their orig member
	being
	non-NULL.  Directories marked with DIRF_RENAMED start encoding
	of renames.
	(procdir): Clear DIRF_RENAMED flag on directories which are
	origins for
	renames.
	(makedumpdir): Use the orig member to check if the directory is a
	result of a rename.
	(store_rename): Move the check for DIR_IS_RENAMED to the
	caller. Don't
	clear the DIRF_RENAMED, it is not needed any more.

	* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.

2020-02-08  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Update copyright years

2020-02-08  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix the --no-overwrite-dir option

	Given this option, tar failed to preserve permissions of empty
	directories
	and to create files under directories owned by the current user
	that did
	not have the S_IWUSR bit set.

	* src/extract.c (fd_chmod): Rename to fd_i_chmod.
	(fd_chmod): New function.
	(safe_dir_mode): New function.
	(extract_dir): Special handling for existing directories in
	--no-overwrite-dir mode.
	* tests/extrac23.at: New file.

	argument:
	the delayed_link entry after which to the newly created one.
	(extract_link): Create a placeholder file if the target link name
	exists in the delayed_link list.

2019-04-11  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	ordering.

	* src/extract.c (find_direct_ancestor): Remove useless test.
	(delay_set_stat): If the file name being added is already in

	Typesetting fixes in the manpage

2019-03-28  Zachary Vance  <za3k@za3k.com>

	POSIX extended format headers do not include PID by default

	The intent is to make binary-equivalent PAX archives easy
	to create.  If
	POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, the POSIX standard default is used,
	which embeds
	the pid.

	* src/common.h (posixly_correct): New global.
	* src/tar.c (decode_options): Detect the POSIXLY_CORRECT
	environment
	variable.
	* src/buffer.c (add_chunk_header): Change filenames of multipart
	files to
	omit the pid.
	* src/xheader.c (HEADER_TEMPLATE): New macro.
	(xheader_xhdr_name, xheader_ghdr_name): Use HEADER_TEMPLATE
	to select
	the template for the POSIX extended header name.
	* doc/tar.texi: Document the change.

2019-03-03  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Check return value from xgetcwd

	* src/misc.c (chdir_arg,tar_getcdpath): Check for non-NULL
	return from xgetcwd. The function returns NULL for any
	error originating from getcwd.

2019-02-23  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Version 1.32

2019-02-04  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Minor fixes in docs.

	* doc/tar.1: Remove description of the --preserve option
	Document verbosity levels.
	* doc/tar.texi: Fix description of the -o option.

2019-01-15  Daniel Le  <greenrecyclebin@gmail.com>

	Fix typos in the documentation

	Short option "t" was mistranslated to "--test" instead of "--list"
	in commit
	67cad0792b4e6cf22c6cb1b167b149cd176d49f9.

2019-01-15  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix build on AIX

	* src/unlink.c (flush_deferred_unlinks): Avoid possible duplicate
	case
	(if ENOTEMPTY==EEXIST)

2019-01-15  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Version 1.31.90

2019-01-14  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Ensure gnu format when running checkpoint tests

2019-01-14  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix compression tests

	Existing compression tests used tar with compiled-in
	defaults. However,
	some of the defaults are sure to create archives that are not
	byte-to-byte
	reproducible (e.g. DEFAULT_ARCHIVE_FORMAT=POSIX, because the
	name field
	in posix extended headers uses PID of the creating process
	by default).
	Moreover, some compressors (e.g. gzip) store current timestamp in
	the file header when compressing from stdin, so that using cmp
	on the
	two created archives as the tests did is error-prone. Another
	problem
	is that the tests implicitly assumed that tar uses archive
	suffix to
	recognize its format when extracting, which isn't the
	case. Finally,
	there's hardly any reason in using sed to create m4 sources, when
	everything can be achieved by m4 itself.

	* tests/Makefile.am: Remove generation of compress-*.at files.
	* tests/compress.at.in: Remove.
	* tests/compress.m4: New file.
	* tests/testsuite.at: Include compress.m4, use TAR_CHECK_COMPRESS
	to
	check compression options.

2019-01-14  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix possible NULL dereference (savannah bug #55369)

	* src/sparse.c (pax_decode_header): Check return from
	find_next_block.

2019-01-14  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix compilation without iconv.

2019-01-14  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix iconv usage.

	Patch by Christian Weisgerber.

	* src/utf8.c (utf8_convert): non-zero return from iconv means
	failure.

2019-01-14  Pavel Raiskup  <praiskup@redhat.com>

	tests: fix numeric.at for BSD

	While creating file, BSD kernels inherit the group ownership from
	parent directory.
	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2016-06/msg00000.html

	* tests/numeric.at: Attempt to 'chown' the newly created directory
	to proper group (at least on affected machines that command is
	expected to succeed).

2019-01-14  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix typo in manpage.

2019-01-14  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix expected output in dirrem tests.

	In both tests, the "file changed as we read it" warning might be
	produced for dir/sub, depending on the ctime resolution and
	timing.
	The problem was fixed by 64b43fdf70d82c39eb2ca900cd4f8e49,
	but regressed
	after e7cd377f7801d42aa8e07addff93d2150666c237, which removed
	1 second
	delays between each pair of checkpoints. Since the presense
	or absense
	of this warning is irrelevant for the test, it is now suppressed.

	* tests/dirrem01.at: Suppress the file-changed warning.
	* tests/dirrem02.at: Likewise.

2019-01-12  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>

	Fix the use of --checkpoint without explicit --checkpoint-action

	* src/checkpoint.c (checkpoint_finish_compile): Set default
	action,
	if necessary.
	* tests/checkpoint/defaults.at: New testcase.
	* tests/checkpoint/dot-compat.at: New testcase.
	* tests/checkpoint/dot-int.at: New testcase.
	* tests/checkpoint/dot.at: New testcase.
	* tests/checkpoint/interval.at: New testcase.
	* tests/Makefile.am: Add new testcases.
	* tests/testsuite.at Include new testcases.

2019-01-10  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>

	Remove erroneous abort() call

	The call was introduced by commit ccef8581. It caused tar to abort
	on perfectly normal operations, like untarring archives containing
	./ with the -U option,

	See
	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2019-01/msg00019.html
	for details.

	* src/extract.c (maybe_recoverable): Remove misplaced call
	to abort().

2019-01-02  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Version 1.31

2018-12-28  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Fix the difflink test

	Hardlinking a symlink produces hardlink on BSD and symlink
	on GNU/Linux. Avoid the ambiguity.

	* tests/difflink.at: Create hard link from a regular file.

2018-12-28  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Work over a bug in gnulib error()

	The error() function from glibc correctly prefixes each message it
	prints with program_name as set by set_program_name. However, its
	replacement from gnulib, which is linked in on systems where this
	function is not available, prints the name returned by
	getprogname()
	instead. Due to this messages output by tar subprocess (which
	sets its
	program name to 'tar (child)') become indiscernible from those
	printed
	by the main process. In particular, this breaks the remfiles01.at
	and
	remfiles02.at test cases.

	* configure.ac: Define ENABLE_ERROR_PRINT_PROGNAME if using
	gnulib error().
	* src/tar.c [ENABLE_ERROR_PRINT_PROGNAME] (tar_print_progname):
	New function.
	(main) [ENABLE_ERROR_PRINT_PROGNAME]: Set error_print_progname.

2018-12-28  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Implement the "wait" checkpoint action.

	This action instructs tar to pause until given signal is
	delivered.
	The newer genfile tool uses this action for communication between
	genfile and tar in exec mode. This eliminates race conitions and
	speeds up the tests based on exec mode.

	* doc/tar.texi: Document changes.
	* paxutils: Upgrade.
	* src/checkpoint.c: Implement the wait action.
	* src/common.h (decode_signal): New proto.
	* src/tar.c (decode_signal): New function.
	(set_stat_signal): Rewrite.
	* tests/dirrem01.at: Adjust genfile and tar command line arguments
	to use the new feature.
	* tests/dirrem02.at: Likewise.
	* tests/filerem01.at: Likewise.
	* tests/filerem02.at: Likewise.
	* tests/grow.at: Likewise.
	* tests/sptrcreat.at: Likewise.
	* tests/sptrdiff00.at: Likewise.
	* tests/sptrdiff01.at: Likewise.
	* tests/truncate.at: Likewise.

	* NEWS: Update.
	* src/sparse.c (sparse_dump_region): Handle short read condition.
	(sparse_extract_region,check_data_region): Fix dumped_size
	calculation.
	Handle short read condition.
	(pax_decode_header): Fix dumped_size calculation.
	* tests/Makefile.am: Add new testcases.
	* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.

	* tests/sptrcreat.at: New file.
	* tests/sptrdiff00.at: New file.
	* tests/sptrdiff01.at: New file.

2018-12-21  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Disallow modifications to the global pax extended header in
	update mode.

	Updating global headers in update mode is not possible, because:

	1) If the original archive was not in PAX format, writing the
	global header would overwrite first member header (and eventually
	data blocks) in the archive.
	2) Otherwise, using the --pax-option can make the updated header
	occupy more blocks than the original one, which would lead to the
	same effect as in 1.

	This also fixes
	  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2018-12/msg00007.html

	* src/xheader.c (xheader_forbid_global): New function.
	* src/common.h (xheader_forbid_global): New prototype.
	* src/update.c (update_archive): Use xheader_forbid_global,
	instead
	of trying to write global extended header record.

	tests: fix race in dirrem01 and dirrem02

	Previously the '--checkpoint-action=echo' was triggered after
	'--checkpoint-action=sleep=1' - so the order of events *usually*
	was (for --format='gnu'):

	  ...
	  1. checkpoint handler before write of 'dir/sub' member
	  2. one-second delay
	  3. stderr write: 'tar: Write checkpoint 3'
	  4. write the member 'dir/sub' into the archive
	  5. check that the member's ctime has not been changed
	  6. genfile's detecting 'Write checkpoint', doing unlink
	  ...

	But sometimes, the genfile was fast enough to win the race and
	unlinked the directory before the member was written into the
	archive (IOW, the order was 1-2-3-6-4-5).  This led to the
	occasional warning 'tar: dir/sub: file changed as we read it'.

	Swap the order of 'sleep=1' and 'echo' actions so the genfile
	utility has (hopefully) enough time to do the unlink before
	writing the file into the archive (enforce 1-2-3-6-4-5 order).

	* tests/dirrem01.at: Swap 'sleep=1' and 'echo' actions.
	* tests/dirrem02.at: Likewise.

2017-05-29  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>

	Fix a bug in multi-volume archive creation.

	When creating multivolume archives, the bufmap code in buffer.c
	implicitly assumed that the members are stored in the archive
	contiguously, ignoring the member (and eventual extended) headers
	between them.  This worked until the member header happened to be
	at the very beginning of the volume, in which case its length was
	included in the calculation of the stored size and size left to
	store.	Due to this, the GNUFileParts extended header contained
	invalid GNU.volume.offset value, and the resulting archive failed
	to extract properly.

	This patch also eliminates improper listing of file part headers
	as regular files, when creating multivolume posix archives
	with -v.

	* src/buffer.c (bufmap): New member nblocks.  Counts number
	of blocks
	of file data written since reset.
	(bufmap_reset): Reset nblocks to 0.
	(_flush_write): Update nblocks.  When computing offset difference
	for
	bufmap_reset, count only data blocks, not headers.
	(close_archive): Flush archive until all blocks are written.
	(add_chunk_header): Use simple_finish_header instead of
	finish_header
	to avoid listing chunk header as regular file in verbose mode.
	* tests/multiv10.at: New test case.
	* tests/Makefile.am: Add new test.
	* tests/testsuite.at: Add new test.

	Remove iotty test

	The auxiliary utility ttyemu proved to be unreliable.

	Reported independently by Denis Excoffier and Dominyk Tille.

	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>

2015-12-11  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	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.

	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.

2015-07-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

	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.

2015-07-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

	tar: port to recent gnulib

	* gnulib.modules: Remove 'acl' and add 'file-has-acl'.

2015-07-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

	tar: pacify GCC 5.1 -Wformat-signedness

	* lib/wordsplit.c (struct wordsplit_node.flags):
	Now unsigned, so that 'printf ("%x", p->flags)' doesn't provoke
	GCC.
	* src/incremen.c (read_num, dumpdir_ok):
	Don't printf an int with %x or %o.

2015-04-16  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>

	Fix extraction from concatenated incremental archives.

	* src/common.h (remove_delayed_set_stat): New proto.
	* src/extract.c (free_delayed_set_stat)
	(remove_delayed_set_stat): New function.
	(apply_nonancestor_delayed_set_stat): Use free_delayed_set_stat.
	* src/misc.c (safer_rmdir): Remove delayed_set_stat entry
	corresponding to the removed directory.
	* tests/incr10.at: New test case.
	* tests/Makefile.am: Add new test.
	* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.

2015-04-10  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>

	Fix make installcheck

	Make installcheck would fail unless make check had been run
	before it.
	Reported by Erik Brangs <erik.brangs@gmx.de>

	* tests/Makefile.am (installcheck-local): Depend on
	$(check_PROGRAMS)

2015-03-18  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

	tar: don't assume GZIP

	* Makefile.am (dist-hook): Port to gzip implementations that
	warn about nontrivial settings in the GZIP environment var.

2015-03-17  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

	tar: don't suggest GZIP

	* doc/tar.texi (gzip): Don't suggest using the GZIP environment
	variable, as it will be deprecated in the next gzip release.

2015-02-19  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>

	Improve compression format recognition

	Some comressed archives can pass the checksum test, which
	makes tar
	treat them as uncompressed archives.

	* src/buffer.c (check_compressed_archive): Test the checksum only
	if the block we read looks like a valid tar header (i.e. has
	a magic string).

2015-01-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

	tar: port xattr-at.c to Solaris 10

	* lib/xattr-at.c (setxattrat, lsetxattrat, getxattrat,
	lgetxattrat)
	(listxattrat, llistxattrat): Compile only if HAVE_XATTRS, so that
	the code doesn't call functions that are not declared.

2015-01-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

	tar: port wordsplit attribute to Sun C

	Reported by Ted Carr in:
	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2015-01/msg00002.html
	* lib/wordsplit.h (__WORDSPLIT_ATTRIBUTE_FORMAT):
	New macro, taken from Gnulib.
	(struct wordsplit): Use it.
	* lib/wordsplit.c (_wsplt_error): Use it.

2014-12-17  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Silent a cc warning

	* src/xheader.c (xheader_string_end): Make sure pointer
	arithmetics applies on char*.

2014-12-12  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

	tar: port ISFOUND, WASFOUND to C89

	Problem reported by Romano Maspero in:
	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2014-12/msg00010.html
	* src/common.h (ISFOUND, WASFOUND): Port to C89.

2014-12-10  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org.ua>

	Fix tar -c -l file file

	When the same file is added several times to the archive, count
	correctly the number of hard links.  See also 37ddfb0b.

	* src/create.c (dump_hard_link): Don't decrease nlink if it is 0.
	* tests/link04.at: Test -cl options.

2014-11-07  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	* NEWS: Fix typos.
	* doc/tar.texi: Fix typos.  Improve recipe for creation of binary
	equivalent archives.
	* src/create.c (write_extended): Use the value of the
	--mtime option (if specified) as the default for exthdr.mtime.
	* src/xheader.c (xheader_store): Create the header if at least
	one override is supplied in --pax-option.

2014-11-07  Sergey Poznyakoff  <gray@gnu.org>

	Add testcase for the previous commit.

	* tests/sparse05.at: New file.
	* tests/Makefile.am: Add sparse05.at
	* tests/testsuite.at: Include sparse05.at

2014-11-07  Pavel Raiskup  <praiskup@redhat.com>

	Fix bug in sparse file listing

	List posix archives containing sparse files >8GB correctly and
	do not fail.
	This fixes also bug in format of listing for sparse files >8GB -
	now the
	real size is printed instead of the effective one (this is
	not strictly
	posix format related).

	* src/list.c: Remove redundant assignment.
	* src/tar.h: Add new 'real_size' and 'real_size_set' fields in
	  tar_stat_info struct.
	* src/xheader.c: Correctly handle (especially sparse) file sizes
	directly in
	  xheader_decode().
