xz.git - XZ Utils

Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author	Files	Lines
2010-01-24	Set LC_NUMERIC=C when --robot is used.	Lasse Collin	1	-0/+4
	It is to ensure that floating point numbers will always have a dot as the decimal separator.
2009-11-25	Create sparse files by default when decompressing into	Lasse Collin	1	-0/+6
	a regular file. Sparse file creation can be disabled with --no-sparse. I don't promise yet that the name of this option won't change before 5.0.0. It's possible that the code, that checks when it is safe to use sparse output on stdout, is not good enough, and a more flexible command line option is needed to configure sparse file handling.
2009-11-16	Add support for --info-memory and --robot to xz.	Lasse Collin	1	-35/+50
	Currently --robot works only with --info-memory and --version. --help and --long-help work too, but --robot has no effect on them. Thanks to Jonathan Nieder for the original patches.
2009-09-19	Various changes.	Lasse Collin	1	-7/+1
	Separate a few reusable components from XZ Utils specific code. The reusable code is now in "tuklib" modules. A few more could be separated still, e.g. bswap.h. Fix some bugs in lzmainfo. Fix physmem and cpucores code on OS/2. Thanks to Elbert Pol for help. Add OpenVMS support into physmem. Add a few #ifdefs to ease building XZ Utils on OpenVMS. Thanks to Jouk Jansen for the original patch.
2009-07-23	Fix incorrect usage of getopt_long(), which caused	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+0
	invalid memory access if XZ_OPT was defined.
2009-07-10	Look for full command names instead of substrings	Lasse Collin	1	-9/+13
	like "un", "cat", and "lz" when determining if xz is run as unxz, xzcat, lzma, unlzma, or lzcat. This is to ensure that if xz is renamed (e.g. via --program-transform-name), it doesn't so easily work in wrong mode.
2009-06-24	Cast a char argument to isspace() to unsigned char.	Lasse Collin	1	-2/+9

2009-05-23	Remove undocumented alternative option names --bcj, --ppc,	Lasse Collin	1	-3/+0
	and --itanium.
2009-05-23	Add support for specifying the BCJ filter start offset	Lasse Collin	1	-15/+21
	in the xz command line tool.
2009-05-22	Add --no-warn.	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+7

2009-05-22	Remove the --info option, which was an alias for --list.	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+0

2009-05-22	If xz is run as lzma, unlzma, or lzcat, simply imply	Lasse Collin	1	-11/+6
	--format=lzma. This means that xz emulating lzma doesn't decompress .xz files, while before this commit it did. The new way is slightly simpler in code and especially in upcoming documentation.
2009-05-22	Make the default memory usage limit 40 % of RAM for both	Lasse Collin	1	-7/+21
	compressing and decompressing. This should be OK now that xz automatically scales down the compression settings if they would exceed the memory usage limit (earlier, the limit for compression was increased to 90 % because low limit broke scripts that used "xz -9" on systems with low RAM). Support spcifying the memory usage limit as a percentage of RAM (e.g. --memory=50%). Support --threads=0 to reset the thread limit to the default value (number of available CPU cores). Use UINT32_MAX instead of SIZE_MAX as the maximum in args.c. hardware.c was already expecting uint32_t value. Cleaned up the output of --help and --long-help.
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.
2009-02-14	Cleanups to the code that detects the amount of RAM and	Lasse Collin	1	-2/+2
	the number of CPU cores. Added support for using sysinfo() on Linux systems whose libc lacks appropriate sysconf() support (at least dietlibc). The Autoconf macros were split into separate files, and CPU core count detection was moved from hardware.c to cpucores.h. The core count isn't used for anything real for now, so a problematic part in process.c was commented out.
2009-02-13	Fix handling of integrity check type in the xz command line tool.	Lasse Collin	1	-1/+8

2009-02-13	Improve support for DOS-like systems.	Lasse Collin	1	-8/+5
	Here DOS-like means DOS, Windows, and OS/2.
2009-02-08	Support both slash and backslash as path component	Lasse Collin	1	-0/+9
	separator on Windows when parsing argv[0].
2008-12-27	Some xz command line tool improvements.	Lasse Collin	1	-13/+10

2008-11-19	Renamed lzma to xz and lzmadec to xzdec. We create symlinks	Lasse Collin	1	-0/+500
	lzma, unlzma, and lzcat in "make install" for backwards compatibility with LZMA Utils 4.32.x; I'm not sure if this should be the default though.
