+** Improvements
+
+ stat and tail work better with EFIVARFS, EXOFS, F2FS and UBIFS.
+ stat -f --format=%T now reports the file system type, and tail -f now uses
+ inotify for files on those file systems, rather than the default (for unknown
+ file system types) of issuing a warning and reverting to polling.
