that thay exist and skipping such files when extracting and when archiving. -Erik
2000-09-23Fix an obscure option parsing bug.Eric Andersen
2000-09-19Reverted my conversion of tar to getopt to ensure tar canEric Andersen
handle traditional semantics (i.e. 'tar -xvf -' or 'tar xvf' now both work). -Erik
2000-09-15Updated stdin/stdout treatment to match that of gnu tar.Matt Kraai
2000-09-15Reorganize listing code.Matt Kraai

handling of --exclude option.
2000-09-04Allow selective extraction and listing of files. And fix an uncheckedMatt Kraai
return value of realloc (with xrealloc).
2000-09-01Argh. I *will* compile before checking in.Matt Kraai
2000-09-01Don't unlink files if we are extracting to stdout.Matt Kraai
2000-08-02Merge in two patches from Dave Cinege:Eric Andersen
the first is a cleanup of tar --exclude the second changes mount so mtab works more as it should, and also allows mount to use the traditional short form (i.e. 'mount / -o remount,rw' now works. While inside tar, I changed it to use getopt... -Erik
2000-07-28Fix from Robert Kaiser for stdin behavior.Eric Andersen

2000-07-12Always report the applet name when doing error reporting.Matt Kraai
2000-07-06* Fixed tar creation support when reading from stdin ('tar -cf - . ')Eric Andersen
thanks to Daniel Quinlan <quinlan@transmeta.com> -Erik
2000-06-28* Fixed a _horrible_ bug where 'tar -tvf' could unlinkEric Andersen
local files!!! Fix thanks to Marius Groeger <mgroeger@sysgo.de> * Added support for "sh -c command args...", also thanks to Marius Groeger <mgroeger@sysgo.de> -Erik
2000-06-26readlink(2) does not NULL terminate the buffer it reads in, but tar expected itEric Andersen
to do so. This caused symlinks stored in tarballs to likely have trailing crap in the stored symlink named. Oops. -Erik
2000-06-21'tar --help' wasn't working. Fixed it.Eric Andersen
-Erik
2000-06-09* Fixed a small bug that could cause tar to emit warning messagesEric Andersen

2000-05-30Fixed tar option parsing segfault, and make "tar xv" and "tar -xv"Eric Andersen
both work (i.e. it works with or w/o the "-"). -Erik
2000-05-20First pass at fixing tar segfault, and more portability updates.Erik Andersen
-Erik
2000-05-12Lots of updates. Finished implementing BB_FEATURE_TRIVIAL_HELPErik Andersen
which lets you compile out most of the "--help" output, saving up to 17k. Renamed mnc to nc. -Erik
2000-04-28Fix tarball creation. In an attempt to accomodate the whinersErik Andersen
that wanted "tar cf foo.tar foo" (i.e. no "-" before options) I broke creation of tarballs. Now fixed. -Erik
2000-04-28Latest and greatest. Some effort at libc5 (aiming towards newlib)Erik Andersen
compatability. -Erik
2000-04-21More Doc updates. cmdedit and more termio fixes.Erik Andersen
2000-04-19make ps accept (and ignore) all options (--help works of course).Erik Andersen
tar now works with or without the leading "-" on the options. -Erik
2000-04-14Fix a tar bug: tar removed leading '/'s for symlink targets.Erik Andersen
Fix a syslogd bug: Only the first sizeof(buffer) was read from the /dev/log socket, causing (for most cases) only every other log item to be logged. -Erik
2000-04-13Upates to include copyright 2000 to everythingErik Andersen
-Erik
2000-04-09This makes tar work perfectly, and adds in "--exclude" as an optionErik Andersen

-Erik
2000-04-08Latest and greatestErik Andersen

2000-04-07Slightly better fringe case handling and GNU tar like error messages.Erik Andersen
-Erik
2000-04-05Tar now works perfectly. It behaves much better now then itErik Andersen
used to. Only thing left to do is add in exclude (-X) option. -Erik

-Erik
2000-03-28Yet another installment in the ongoing tar sagaErik Andersen

2000-03-24The new tar for busybox is now done, and works just fineErik Andersen
for extracting files. Creation of tarballs is next... -Erik
2000-03-23More changes that are broken. It doesn't compileErik Andersen
yet, but is closer. -Erik
2000-03-23My latest ramblings.Erik Andersen

2000-02-07A few minor updates. ;-)Erik Andersen
Seriously though, read the Changelog for busybox 0.42, which this is about to become... -Erik
2000-01-27copyFile could call chmod on a symlink, changing the permsErik Andersen
of the pointed to file. Minor fix to tar for directory handling. -Erik
2000-01-23* added (and documented) "-n" option for head -Erik Andersen
contributed Friedrich Vedder <fwv@myrtle.lahn.de> * Cleanup for a number of usage messages -- also contributed Friedrich Vedder <fwv@myrtle.lahn.de> -Erik
2000-01-23Fix a bug where tar could change perms and ownership of dirs pointedErik Andersen
to by symlink within a tarball. -Erik
2000-01-23Some busybox updates. You no longer _have_ to put a "-" in front of tarErik Andersen
options, logger is better behaved and has a "-t" option now. init now supports the kernel chroot patch, so you can chroot to a new device and umount the old root. -Erik
2000-01-16tar creation support is now optional.Erik Andersen
-Erik
2000-01-04Bunches of fixes. Typos, bugs, etc.Erik Andersen
Added 'gunzip -t'. inittab support _almost_ works (but it isn't ready for prime time useage yet). -Erik
1999-12-28Fixed a bug where tar would not set the user and group on deviceErik Andersen
special files. -Erik
