is not legal (but happens to work on Linux) to do proper
low-level file descriptor mangling which is portable. (Anton)
- Add test/runlist-data to EXTRA_DIST so it gets included in the
distribution otherwise make test fails on released sources. Solution
is not perfect as it also adds the test/runlist-data/CVS directory
but it will do at least for me. (Anton)
volume.[hc]::ntfs_libntfs_version() which returns a pointer to a
static const string of the libntfs verion, i.e. at the moment this is
"8.0.0". This required moving the version specifications from
libntfs/Makefile.am to configure.ac. This should hopefully have the
sideeffect that I will remember to increment it when incrementing the
ntfsprogs version number when making a release given the two are
right under one another. (Anton)
- Change ALL utilities to display the libntfs version they are running
on. This should make debugging easier in the case that people are
running mismatched utilities/library. (Anton)
latest ntfsprogs snapshot. Includes,
- ntfsclone: --rescue works at the lowest, sector and not cluster level
thus more data can be rescued. The contents of the unreadable sectors
are filled by character '?' and the beginning of such sectors are
marked as "BadSectoR\0". Thanks to Krishna Mohan Gundu for his help.
- ntfsclone: fixed an off-by-one error during --metadata in function
wipe_data().

Save at least the first 16 KiB of $Logfile (the two RSTR records
should always be included if present). Save also records used for
checking empty $Logfile. (Szaka)

bad sectors (dying disks) can be rescued. The content of the cluster
having bad sectors is filled by character '2' and the start of the
cluster is marked by "BadClusteR".

- Correct a too strong sanity check in ntfsclone that prevented
cloning from larger device to a smaller one but the NTFS image
could have fit fully.
(Logical change 1.344)
Fix warnings on powerpc architecture where it would seem char is
unsigned so comparisons with -1 cause a warning that comparison is
always true/wrong. (Thanks to Ender for reporting.)

Fix all occurences of printf with %ll length modifiers but 64 bit
arguments to typecast the arguments to (unsigned) long long to avoid
the warnings when compiling on 64 bit architectures.
(Logical change 1.306)
- all warnings fixed for maintainer mode for ntfsresize and ntfsclone
- added 'const' to ntfs_ucstombs()'s first parameter
- 'fsync' also after metadata-only cloning
- fixed forced metadata-only, dirty ntfs cloning (only one -f needed)
(Logical change 1.264)
This fixes all known issues I knew about or wanted to add to ntfsclone.
So it's declared ready and basically works for me for half a year. Future
work is only based on requests/needs. I only want to write the manual, if
ever have time.
Changes:
- support block device as output file
- handle partial read/write
- show progress bar during cloning
- significant cloning performance improvement
- detect ReiserFS & warn about its extremely poor ftruncate performance
- no error if fsync() gives EINVAL (pipe)
- several sanity checks added
- some cleanup, spelling corrections
