Let dump report the number of blocks dumped per volume. +1. Made dump report the number of blocks dumped per volume. Thanks to Kenneth Porter for the suggestion. +2. Fix a bug in dump where waiting too much at the 'change volumes' + question caused the volume to be rewritten. Thanks to + Graham Reed for reporting the + bug and providing a patch. + +3. Added a compression option to dump, contributed by Jerry + Peters . + + WARNING: the compression works only on files/pipes and + drives supporting variable block size. + + WARNING2: tapes created using the compression feature are + incompatible with the standard dump tape format, and a + version of restore >= 0.4b22 will be needed for extraction. + +4. Fixed some compilation problems for glibc 2.2.2 and 64 bit + architectures. Thanks to Paul Slootman for + the patch and to Bdale Garbee for forwarding + it upstream. + +5. Many cleanups (CPP defines, const char warnings, check of + ext2fs COMPAT flags, time_t cleanups, added libext2 version + in dump usage text) by Andreas Dilger . + +6. Made --prefix option work in configure. All the install path + are now based on the configure parameters. + +7. Added the Quick File Access mode in dump/restore, contributed + by Uwe Gohlke . In this mode, dump stores in + a file tape position for each inode, and this file is used by + restore (if called with parameter Q and the filename) + to directly position the tape at the file restore is currently + working on. This saves hours when restoring single files from + large backups, saves the tapes and the drive's head. Use + --enable-qfa option of configure to compile in the QFA support. + +8. Added the possibility to dump several files and directories + in a single invocation of dump. Thanks to Uwe Gohlke + for implementing this option. + +9. Fixed the dumping and restoring of files with holes + (files ending with holes didn't get dumped or restored + correctly). + Changes between versions 0.4b20 and 0.4b21 (released January 13, 2001) ======================================================================
