The regression was introduced by 8f390db9. This patch implements additional
option --skip-old-files, which silently skips members which would cause
writing over existing files, and restores --keep-old-files to its traditional
behavior.

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 inadvertantly.
* 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.
* 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.
* src/system.c (stat_to_env): Pass information about the current
volume in variables TAR_ARCHIVE, TAR_VOLUME, TAR_BLOCKING_FACTOR,
TAR_FORMAT.
* doc/tar.texi: Document new environment variables.
* NEWS: Likewise.
* configure.ac: Version number 1.22.91.
This adds --with-gzip, --with-bzip2 etc. switches to the configure, so that
one can do, e.g. ./configure --with-bzip2=lbzip2 and have lbzip2 executed
whenever user calls `tar --bzip2'.
* acinclude.m4: New file.
* configure.ac: Add TAR_COMPR_PROGRAM invocations for
the supported compressors.

only if the archive descriptor refers to a device.
* tests/pipe.at, tests/shortrec.at,
tests/sparsemvp.at: Reflect the above change.
* NEWS, configure.ac: Version 1.22.90
* doc/tar.texi: Document transformation scope flags.

transformation scope flags.
(XFORM_REGFILE, XFORM_LINK, XFORM_SYMLINK, XFORM_ALL): New macros.
(transform_name, transform_member_name, transform_name_fp): Take
an additional argument, specifying scope flags.
* src/create.c: Reflect changes to transform_name.
* src/extract.c (extract_link, extract_symlink): Remove calls to
transform_member_name. It is done in read_header.
* src/list.c (decode_xform): Reflect change in data type of 2nd
argument.
(transform_member_name): 2nd arg is int.
(decode_header): Transform file name and link target names.
* src/tar.c: Remove --transform-symlinks.
* src/transform.c (struct transform): New member `flags'.
(transform_flags): New variable.
(parse_transform_expr): Parse transformation scope flags. Allow to
set global flags using `flags=' syntax.
(_transform_name_to_obstack, transform_name_fp)
(transform_name): Take an additional argument, specifying scope
flags.
* doc/tar.texi: Document -J, --no-auto-compress, etc.
* src/buffer.c (ct_tar): New constant.
(magic): Add lzop support. Proposed by Kevin Day
<thekevinday@gmail.com>.

compression program was specified explicitly.
Fall back to analyzing archive name, if the autodetection fails.

struct dumpdir *dump, *idump. All references updated.
(note_directory): Last arg is const.
* src/names.c (add_hierarchy_to_namelist): buffer is const.
* tests/incr03.at, tests/incr04.at, tests/rename02.at,
tests/rename03.at: Insert calls to sleep between creation of files
and adding them to the archive.
* configure.ac: Dont' check for strerror, since gnulib now does this.

* lib/.cvsignore: Adjust to various gnulib file name changes.
Add .deps, rmt-command.h.
SCALAR(0x830b0dc)
directories.
SCALAR(0x831ad2c)
simplest way to get this up and running was to switch to coreutils
bootstrap procedure. I noticed one feature missing after this
merge: the ability to update a single .po file. I can add that
later if need be.
* README-cvs, bootstrap.conf: New files.
* lib/.cvsignore: Remove Makefile.am, printf-parse.c, vasnprintf.c.
* lib/printf-parse.c, lib/vasnprintf.c: New files, from coreutils,
to override gnulib, so that we don't need xsize.h.
* bootstrap: Replace with coreutils bootstrap, except add support
for paxutils.
* configure.ac (gl_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS): Remove, as gl_EARLY now
does this.
(gl_EARLY, gl_INIT): Add.
(tar_GNULIB): Remove.
* gnulib.modules: Add configmake.
* lib/Makefile.tmpl: Remove, replacing with....
* lib/Makefile.am: New file.
* src/Makefile.am (tar.o): Remove dependency: Automake does this
for us.
* src/tar.c: Include <configmake.h> and <rmt-command.h>, not
<localedir.h>.
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.
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.
* configure.ac: Prefer AC_CHECK_HEADERS_ONCE to AC_CHECK_HEADERS.
Check for stropts.h and sys/filio.h too, for _FIOSATIME.
* doc/tar.texi: Change "modification time" to "data modification
time", "change time" to "status change time", and "filesystem" to
"file system", so that we use terminology consistent with POSIX.
Use American spacing rather than French for sentence ends.
"non-dependable" -> "undependable".
(Option Summary, Attributes): Explain better the pitfalls of the
--atime-preserve option, and suggest read-only mounts,loopback
mounts, and noatime mounts for older systems.
* doc/value.texi (op-atime-preserve-system): Renamed from
op-atime-preserver-system to fix a misspelling.
* src/common.h (enum atime_preserve): Use lower case for enum values.
* src/compare.c: Don't include utimens.h; no longer needed.
(diff_file): Use set_file_atime rather than utimens; avoid closing
diff_handle until after this, so that we can set the file time stamp
via the file descriptor rather than via its name.
* src/create.c: Don't include utimens.h; no longer needed.
(dump_regular_finish): Remove. All callers now do its work inline.
(dump_dir): New arg FD. All callers changed.
Use fdsavedir rather than savedir.
(unknown_file_error): Arg is a const pointer now.
(dump_file0): 2nd arg is a const pointer now.
Treat directories more like files, with respect to --atime-preserve.
For example, also warn if a directory changes while we are dumping it.
Prefer file descriptors to file names when retrieving/setting file
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.
First cut at adding support for --atime-preserve=system.
* doc/tar.texi (Option Summary): First cut at documenting it.
All other uses of --atime-preserve changed to --atime-preserve=replace.
* doc/value.texi (op-atime-preserve-replace, op-atime-preserver-system):
New.
(op-atime-preserve): Mention METHOD.
* src/common.h (atime_preserve): New enum.
(atime_preserve_option): Now of the enum type rather than bool.
All uses changed.
* src/compare.c (diff_file): Read with O_NOATIME if asked for.
* src/create.c (dump_file0): Read regular and CTG files with O_NOATIME
if asked for.
* src/tar.c (usage): Mention new usage.
(parse_opt): Parse new usage.
