NEWS for seivot, a backup benchmarking program
==============================================
+Version 1.11, released 2011-08-03
+--------------------------------
+
+* Bug fix: dropping kernel caches now works with modern kernel versions as
+ well. Previously, seivot would write 3, and then 0 to the relevant file
+ in `/proc`, and the 0 would fail. Now it no longer does that.
+* Bug fix: seivot now works even if `PYTHONPATH` is not set in the
+ environment.
+* Bug fix: the obnam log file is now removed after it is no longer needed.
+* Seivot now has a manual page.
+* The `--use-sftp` option has been renamed to `--use-sftp-repository`,
+ and a new option `--use-sftp-root` has been added.
+* When seivots-summary finds a bad .seivot file, it now tells the user which
+ file it is. None of the "?" error message nonsense for us.
+* Improvements to how seivots-summary presents results from many .seivot
+ files: they are grouped in a more sensible way now (initial and incremental
+ data sizes, plus profile name and whether encryption is used, instead of
+ just initial size). Also, the description is shown, if it is in the
+ .seivot file. Also, some columns are left-aligned.
