* src/buffer.c, src/suffix.c: Add support for xz compression.
* src/tar.c: New option --xz, for compression/decompression using xz.
Re-assign -J as a short equivalent of --xz.
* doc/tar.texi, NEWS: Document --xz
* doc/tar.texi: Document transformation scope flags.
* src/common.h (transform_symlinks_option): Remove in favor of
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.
which was always false on a first record and thus disabled record
size autodetection. Thanks Ed Leaver for the patch.
(_gnu_flush_read): Handle blocking_factor == 1.
* tests/sparsemv.at: Reflect changes to buffer.c.
* tests/sparsemvp.at: Likewise.
* tests/volsize.at: Likewise.
* NEWS: Update.
* THANKS: Add Ed Leaver.
* src/create.c (dump_file0): Transform symlink targets only if
explicitly required. Thanks Cyril Strejc for reporting the
problem.
* src/tar.c (parse_opt): New options --transform-symlinks and
--no-transform-symlinks. New alias --xform to the --transform
option.
* doc/tar.texi: Document --transform-symlinks
* NEWS: Update.
* THANKS: Update.
* src/names.c (name_gather): Use xzalloc.
* src/buffer.c (short_read): Move record size detection before
the loop.
* 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>.
(check_compressed_archive): Do not use autodetect if the
compression program was specified explicitly.
Fall back to analyzing archive name, if the autodetection fails.
* src/suffix.c: Add .lzo
* src/tar.c: New options --lzop and --no-auto-compress.
New short option -J (alias for --lzma).
* src/buffer.c (try_new_volume): Print more information with error
diagnostics.
(_gnu_flush_write): Improve error checking. Adjust
real_s_sizeleft before calling new_volume to avoid creating
malformed multivolume headers.
* tests/delete05.at, tests/gzip.at, tests/ignfail.at,
tests/longv7.at, tests/lustar01.at, tests/lustar02.at,
tests/shortfile.at: Update to match new diagnostic wording
(see 2008-05-06).
* NEWS: Update.
* src/extract.c (ARCHIVED_PERMSTATS): Add a comment saying that
S_IRWXG | S_IRWXO might be masked out.
(set_mode): Set the mode if some bits were masked out originally.
(set_stat): Don't chmod before chown, as that might temporarily
grant permissions that we don't want to grant. The chmod was
there only to work around broken hosts, so add a comment advising
users not to use those broken hosts instead.
(repair_delayed_set_stat, extract_dir):
Remember to mask out current umask before inverting permissions.
(extract_dir): If the owner might change, or if the mode has
special bits, create the directory 700 at first, but restore it later.
(open_output_file): New arg mode; all uses changed.
(extract_file, extract_node, extract_fifo): If the owner might
change, omit group and other bits at first, but restore them after
changing the owner.
