2009-04-13	Put the interesting parts of XZ Utils into the public domain.	Lasse Collin	1	-10/+3
	Some minor documentation cleanups were made at the same time.
2008-12-31	Renamed lzma_options_simple to lzma_options_bcj in the API.	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+1
	The internal implementation is still using the name "simple". It may need some cleanups, so I look at it later.
2008-12-31	Remove lzma_init() and other init functions from liblzma API.	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+0
	Half of developers were already forgetting to use these functions, which could have caused total breakage in some future liblzma version or even now if --enable-small was used. Now liblzma uses pthread_once() to do the initializations unless it has been built with --disable-threads which make these initializations thread-unsafe. When --enable-small isn't used, liblzma currently gets needlessly linked against libpthread (on systems that have it). While it is stupid for now, liblzma will need threads in future anyway, so this stupidity will be temporary only. When --enable-small is used, different code CRC32 and CRC64 is now used than without --enable-small. This made the resulting binary slightly smaller, but the main reason was to clean it up and to handle the lack of lzma_init_check(). The pkg-config file lzma.pc was renamed to liblzma.pc. I'm not sure if it works correctly and portably for static linking (Libs.private includes -pthread or other operating system specific flags). Hopefully someone complains if it is bad. lzma_rc_prices[] is now included as a precomputed array even with --enable-small. It's just 128 bytes now that it uses uint8_t instead of uint32_t. Smaller array seemed to be at least as fast as the more bloated uint32_t array on x86; hopefully it's not bad on other architectures.
2008-12-17	Remove the alignment functions for now. Maybe they will	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+0
	be added back in some form later, but the current version wasn't modular, so it would need fixing anyway.
2008-11-25	Remove the nowadays unneeded memory limitting malloc() wrapper.	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+0

2008-08-28	Sort of garbage collection commit. :-\| Many things are still	Lasse Collin	1	-5/+1
	broken. API has changed a lot and it will still change a little more here and there. The command line tool doesn't have all the required changes to reflect the API changes, so it's easy to get "internal error" or trigger assertions.
2008-06-18	Update the code to mostly match the new simpler file format	Lasse Collin	1	-4/+1
	specification. Simplify things by removing most of the support for known uncompressed size in most places. There are some miscellaneous changes here and there too. The API of liblzma has got many changes and still some more will be done soon. While most of the code has been updated, some things are not fixed (the command line tool will choke with invalid filter chain, if nothing else). Subblock filter is somewhat broken for now. It will be updated once the encoded format of the Subblock filter has been decided.
2008-01-22	Added lzma_easy_* functions. These should make using	Lasse Collin	1	-0/+1
	liblzma as easy as using zlib, because the easy API don't require developers to know any fancy LZMA options. Note that Multi-Block Stream encoding is currently broken. The easy API should be OK, the bug(s) are elsewhere.
