2016-07-03	Promote file.	Rob Landley

2016-07-03	Improve file(1)'s ELF support.	Elliott Hughes
	Read any PT_NOTE sections to look for NT_GNU_BUILD_ID or Android API level notes. I deliberately didn't NT_GNU_ABI_TAG because it's noisy -- every Linux executable has one -- but not something most command-line users will have any use for. (And you can ask readelf(1) anyway.) Also read the section headers to implement "stripped"/"not stripped". This patch removes "uses %d libs" because it was actually just counting dynamic sections in the ELF file, and there are only 0 or 1 of those in a valid ELF flie. (If you really want this functionality, you have to parse the dynamic section looking for the DT_NEEDED entries. But that's more of a job for readelf(1) than file(1).)
2016-03-06	Another pass at file.c: move posix-required "executable" to front of output,	Rob Landley
	next few fields in the order the other implementation outputs, fewer commas, fix a big where big endian executable type wasn't detected right, and fix the filehandle leak.
2016-03-02	Fix file for Java class files, improve script detection, and add tests.	Elliott Hughes

2016-02-29	do_regular_file() prints output line, don't fall through to print default.	Rob Landley

2016-02-29	Fix inverted test.	Rob Landley

2016-02-29	pending/file: add cpio, tar, zip formats.	Isaac Dunham

2016-02-29	Fix a typo from last time, and Isaac Dunham's todo list:	Rob Landley
	- per POSIX, 'cannot open' must be in the 'type' string if open() fails (both EPERM and ENOENT); we only do that if open() succeeds and fstat(fd) fails. - symlink detection (as per POSIX) won't work: opening them O_RDONLY results in following the link, then we fstat() the fd. - file 'FIFO' causes a hang; open() won't return till there's a writer.
2016-02-29	Second pass at the ELF type table.	Rob Landley

2016-02-17	Add dynamic/static checking to file (printing dynamic linker if found).	Rob Landley

2016-02-15	Cleanup pass on file.c, and add detection of different ELF architectures.	Rob Landley

2016-02-14	Implement file(1).	Elliott Hughes
	Unlike the POSIX file(1), there's no magic file here, just hard-coded common (non-obsolete) file formats. Personally most of my use of file(1) is as a one-line readelf(1) summarizer, so although I assume a full POSIX file(1) is out of scope (because just the database would likely be larger than all the rest of toybox), a subset that only supports in-use file types actually covers most of the use cases I encounter personally. Also fix peek_be/peek_le.
