======================
    CHANGES: arnie
======================

Current
-------

- Applied bug fixes for Windows and binary files from Steve Scully.

- Applied more fixes from Steve Scully:

  * Remote hosts are now limited to more than one characters.  This allows
    Windows paths that include a drive-letter to be used as a destination path.

  * Compare the files in binary mode.  Using text-mode on binary files may
    result in incomplete comparisons due to the presence of an EOF character in
    the stream.

- Added patch from Steve Scully <sscully314 at yahoo dot com> for Windows
  archive names.

Version 1.2: (minor features release)
-------------------------------------

- Fixed minor bugs (did not cause a loss of data) with symlinks and empty files
  that were annoying, they were due to the file sizes and would cause empty
  files to always be sent (that's in the 1.2 version).

- Added more tests.

- Added a dry-run option to the archive script.

- Added storing uid and gid in arnie history file, but we're not checking
  changes in those yet.  Adding the values in the file opens up the possibility
  for making those checks in the future.

- Fixed a bug when attempting to back up the root directory / (credits to Uche
  Ogbuji for notifying of the problem).

- Added an option to disregard the MD5 sums for large files (Uche Ogbuji's
  idea).

- Added the file size to the format of the history file.


Version 1.1: (minor features release)
-------------------------------------

- Support for symlinks, symlinks to directories and non-existing symlinks
  (submitted Harry Flink <harppa at steo dot fi>, new tests add by blais)

- Print out the archive size in verbose mode.  This is useful when running from
  a crontab, you can check the amount of bytes transferred in the log file or
  log email.


Version 1.0: (initial release)
------------------------------

- Initial release, including tests, most features and documentation.
