| 2006-08-19 | * NEWS: Fix cp --sparse so that it preserves tail-end sparseness, even | Jim Meyering | |
| 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. | |||
| 2006-08-17 | Add/fix copyright notices and adjust to latest GNU FDL. | Paul Eggert | |
| 2005-02-02 | Check for $2 -ge 128, rather than $2 = 128, in case | Jim Meyering | |
| there is a file system type that doesn't support sparse files, yet for which metadata takes up additional space. | |||
| 2005-02-02 | Also adjust the test to detect systems that don't support sparse files. | Jim Meyering | |
| 2005-02-02 | Detect sparse files on NTFS under cygwin. | Jim Meyering | |
| 2003-05-03 | Skip test if the file system of `.' doesn't support | Jim Meyering | |
| sparse files -- otherwise it'd create a file of size 8GB. This happens on Darwin6.5 with a file system of type `hfs'. | |||
| 2003-03-13 | Work around what appears to be an NFS failure that | Jim Meyering | |
| would make this test fail on some systems. | |||
