Fixed a bug reported by Andy Mentges + which caused restore to fail when the inode maps were not entirely + contained on the first volume (when using really small volumes or + when dumping a huge number of inodes). + +3. Fixed a problem in dump, where files in subdirectories of directories + that have the nodump flag set (or being excluded with -e/-E) were + sometimes incorrectly dumped (instead of being excluded).

Added some example scripts from Gerd Bavendiek + which makes one able to pipe the output of dump, by the net, to + a remote CD-burner server. + +5. Make dump use O_CREAT|O_TRUNC both locally and remotely (over rmt), and + use GNU's symbolic syntax over rmt instead of numerical values to assure + multiple platform compatibility. + +Changes between versions 0.4b27 and 0.4b28 (released April 12, 2002) +==================================================================== 1.

Thanks to Uwe Gohlke for reporting the bug and providing a test case. +8. Added the -m parameter to dump which optimises the output for + inodes having been changed but not modified since the last dump + ('changed' and 'modified' have the meaning defined in stat(2)). + For those inodes, dump will save only the metadata, instead of + saving the entire inode contents. Inodes which are either + directories or have been modified since the last dump are saved + in a regular way. Uses of this flag must be consistent, meaning + that either every dump in an incremental dump set have the flag, + or no one has it. + Changes between versions 0.4b26 and 0.4b27 (released February 15, 2002) =======================================================================
