NEWS file for summain ===================== Version 0.22+git, not yet released ---------------------------------- Version 0.22, released 2016-10-09 ---------------------------------- Version 0.21, released 2016-10-09 --------------------------------- * Require Python 2.7. Version 0.20, released 2015-10-25 --------------------------------- * Updated `_summainmodule.c` with changes made on `_obnammodule.c` in the Obnam project. Version 0.19, released 2014-03-15 --------------------------------- * FreeBSD portability fixes by Itamar Turner-Trauring of HybridCluster. Version 0.18, released 2013-03-15 --------------------------------- * Encode binary values of extended attributes in base64. Version 0.17, released 2012-10-27 --------------------------------- * Changed to use the libc-provided xattr library, instead of the external one. Thanks, Игорь Пашев for pointing this out. * Fixed bug: Summain can now handle extended attributes with an empty value. Version 0.16, released 2012-09-29 --------------------------------- * Internal fixes to build system and automatic tests. * This release was briefly known as 0.15, but I screwed up the release process. Version 0.14, released 2012-06-30 --------------------------------- * Fix handling of dangling symlink as root. * Manual page typo fixes (thanks, Steve Kemp). Version 0.13, released 2012-05-23 --------------------------------- * Bug fix: Summain now fails if the filename given on the command line does not exist. * Added xattrs support. Version 0.12, released 2012-02-25 --------------------------------- * Bug in mangling relative paths fixed: previously the whole path was mangled, but now the relative path is mangled instead. This is more consistent. * Bug fixed: a symlink given as the root is treated as a symlink rather than a directory, if it points to a directory. Version 0.11, released 2012-02-11 --------------------------------- * Now properly supports sub-second timestamps. Previously, the timestamps were limited by the Python standard library's use of floating point values for timestamps, which didn't give the full nanosecond precision. Summain now uses a C extension to call the `lstat`(2) system call directly, to get the full precision. Version 0.10, released 2011-08-09 --------------------------------- * Added support for JSON and CSV output formats, in addition to the default RFC822-like one. (See `--output-format` option.) Version 0.9, released 2011-07-24 -------------------------------- * Paths can now be normalized using checksumming, instead of the previous silly attempt at inventing names for components. Version 0.8, released 2011-06-12 -------------------------------- * Uses newer cliapp API for defining settings. * Adds support for additional checksums: MD5, SHA224, SHA256, SHA386, and SHA512. * Adds a speed-test utility to compare summain with other similar tools. It is about as fast as md5sum(1) and sha1sum(1). * Manual page's list of options is now automatically generated. * Subdirectories are now sorted, to provide a more systematic output. Version 0.7, released 2011-05-18 -------------------------------- * Support microsecond precision in timestamps. Version 0.6, released 2011-05-18 -------------------------------- * Add --exclude option to exclude some fields from the output. This also prevents the field values from being computed, resulting in speedups. Most important for the SHA-1 field, of course. Version 0.5, released 2011-03-20 -------------------------------- * Add --mangle-paths option. Version 0.4.1, released 2011-03-20 ----------------------------------- * Fix empty Debian package. Version 0.4, released 2011-03-12 -------------------------------- * Adapt to cliapp API changes. * Tell cliapp the application version so that "summain --version" works. Version 0.3, released 2011-02-13 -------------------------------- * Add --relative-paths option. Version 0.2, released 2011-02-13 -------------------------------- * Now uses the cliapp Python framework. * No longer reports size of directories, since that is meaningless, and makes it harder to use diff to compare directory trees.
