* NEWS: Fix cp --sparse so that it preserves tail-end sparseness, even
when the file's apparent size is not a multiple of its block size. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't write a NUL before calling ftruncate. For some file sizes, writing that single byte would unnecessarily waste a few file blocks. That write may have been necessary in the early days of Linux, but now, removing it should be safe. Based on a patch by Alan Curry: <http://bugs.debian.org/370792> * tests/cp/sparse: New test for the above. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sparse. * tests/sparse-file: New file, essence factored out of... * tests/du/8gb: ... here. Use the new script.
