2012-06-11Don't overwrite environment CFLAGS, use CPPFLAGS.Romain Francoise
2012-06-07Bump version, i.e. update debian/changelog.Przemyslaw Pawelczyk
2012-06-07Fix false error when writing zero-length records.Zak Wilcox
Quoting Todd A. Jacobs, https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/937306: DATA LOSS WARNING: Using metastore in its current condition can lead to loss of metadata. See below for details. First of all, metastore provides confusing and useless feedback to the user when storing extended attributes without defined values. To consistently re-create this problem: $ touch foo $ setfattr -n user.bar foo $ metastore -s foo Failed to write to file: Success $ echo $? 1 The error message and exit status imply the operation has failed, but it has not--at least, not completely. You can see that metastore *appears* to have succeeded as follows: $ rm foo $ touch foo $ metastore -a foo ./foo: changing metadata ./foo: adding xattr user.bar $ echo $? 0 $ getfattr -d foo # file: foo user.bar So, the .metadata file seems to contains all the correct information, but it provides this contradictory and cryptic error message to the user on save. However, the .metadata file *is* actually broken, but you only see it when saving multiple extended attributes where at least one of them has no defined value. $ rm foo; rm .metadata $ touch foo $ setfattr -n user.bar foo $ setfattr -n user.baz -v quux foo $ getfattr -d foo # file: foo user.bar user.baz="quux" $ metastore -s foo Failed to write to file: Success $ echo $? 1 $ rm foo $ touch foo $ metastore -a Attempt to read beyond end of file, corrupt file? $ echo $? 1 So, there are really two things that need fixing: 1. The incredibly cryptic error message on save. What is the actual error condition it is trying to report? 2. The proper handling of extended attributes without values.

2012-02-10Remove prompting from example Git pre-commit hook.Romain Francoise
Hooks now run with stdin closed (since Git version 1.5.4) and prompting will not work when using a high-level interface such as git-gui or Emacs anyway.

2008-06-23Add stricter build flagsDavid Härdeman
2008-06-23Add dynamic metafile pathDavid Härdeman
In some situations it may be useful to have multiple sets of metadata for the same hierarchy (e.g. representing how a file set should appear on different hosts). The ability to select a metadata file may be useful in this case. Patch by Sergio Callegari <sergio.callegari@gmail.com>
2008-03-20Add documentation of the file format used...David Härdeman
2008-03-20First stab at supporting the option of automatically creating emptyDavid Härdeman
directories which are missing. This should help with Debian BR #460998
2008-03-20Detect whether the underlying FS supports xattrsDavid Härdeman
No support for xattrs is treated the same as a file having no xattrs on a file system which does support xattrs. This should fix Debian BR #470184

2007-11-25fix display of message in usage messageJoey Hess
Displaying a function pointer as a string doesn't work well. :-)
2007-11-25fix documentation of --compareJoey Hess
I considered changing metastore to match the documentation and use --diff, but I'm already using --compare in etckeeper.
