and /usr/bin/cpio (/bin/cpio). The pathname of tar(1) is hard-coded
into things like binary packages, and thus must be kept around
for backward compatibility.
- correct -C processing
- add ability to read filenames and flags from a file
- don't print dangerous escape sequences to the terminal
- use strlcpy/strncpy properly.
- handle tmpfile creation better.
- improve documentation of options.
- handle stdout/stderr list selection correctly.
- kill gzip when we get interrupted.
- simplify gzip setup.
- add more flags to programs.
additional changes:
- librmt processing.
- set POSIXLY_CORRECT in options parsing.
- prevent more string overruns.
- support -T
we don't turn the switch on to replace tar and cpio yet.
(alternate directory for id info) if SMALL is defined
- enable -DSMALL and remove unused objects if CRUNCHEDPROG is defined
- minor cleanup in next_file() (preparation for future work)
be done from dbdir/master.passwd and dbdir/group, using simple text file
parsing routines from ../../usr.sbin/mtree/getid.c.
This does not affect the -G and -U options, which always use the
system databases.
files on standard input as an mtree(8) `specfile' specification, and
write or copy only those items in the specfile.
If the file exists in the underlying file system, its permissions and
modification time will be used unless specifically overridden by the
specfile. An error will be raised if the type of entry in the specfile
conflicts with that of an existing file.
Otherwise, it is necessary to specify at least the following parameters
in the specfile: type, mode, gname or gid, and uname or uid, device
(in the case of block or character devices), and link (in the case of
symbolic links). If time isn't provided, the current time will be used.
leaving the ansi stuff)
- use longlong_t instead of quad_t (etc), and rename *uqd*() -> *ull*()
- clean up the NET2_STAT stuff similar to ftpd; provide #defines and
macros which select which cast to use, etc
- clean up the NET2_FTS and NET2_REGEX #define use
- minor cleanups to the options parsing code.
- add a cpio frontend.
note: a few GNU/svr4 cpio options are not supported yet (#ifdef
notyet), however all x/open ones are.
that the order of arguments is different if the command flags are specified
without a `-'. I've integrated getoldopt.c from John Gilmore's pdtar which
handles argument parsing correctly.
