|| (status > 0 && !read_full_records_option)
which is grossly wrong, since even if new_volume() below succeeds,
the subsequent call to rmtread will overwrite the chunk of data
already read in the buffer and thus spoil everything.
Correctly handle UTF-8 conversions.
(xheader_list_destroy): New function.
(xheader_set_single_keyword,xheader_set_keyword_equal): Added
missing gettext markers
(decode_record): Rewritten using caller-provided handler and
data closure.
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.
(xheader_xhdr_name): Changed the default extended header name
to '%d/PaxHeaders.%p/%f', as POSIX requires.
(xheader_ghdr_name): Removed unused argument.
(xheader_write,xheader_write_global): New function.
(xheader_decode): Modified to honor overrides whatever
the current archive format is.
