# Version __VERSION__, __RELEASEDATE__
#------------------------------------------------------------------------
-* Added some performance improvements to BackupPC::Xfer::RsyncFileIO
- for the case of small files with cached checksums.
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Version 3.1.0, 25 Nov 2007
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Fixed config editor bug for case where override is unchecked on
+ an array where the current array is shorter than the main config's
+ array.
+
+* Fixed missing close quote in BackupPC_archiveHost reported by Franky
+ Van Liedekerke.
+
+* Replaced "$BinDir/.." with $bpc->InstallDir() for path to BackupPC
+ docs, mentioned by Kenneth Porter.
+
+* Moved default of $Conf{IncrLevels} from lib/BackupPC/Storage/Text.pm
+ to lib/BackupPC/Lib.pm (after the merge of the config files). This
+ fixes a bug that caused $Conf{IncrLevels} to get over-ridden if it
+ was only defined in the main config file. Reported by John Rouillard.
+
+* Fixed the completion status message in BackupPC_dump so that missing
+ error counts appear as 0, rather than empty. Reported by Bill.
+
+* Changed lib/BackupPC/Xfer/RsyncFileIO.pm to only increment the error
+ count when the md4 checksum fails on the second phase, not the first.
+ Reported by Adrian Bridgett.
+
+* Updated a comment in config.pl about BackupPC_nightly, reported by
+ Dan Pritts.
+
+* Modified lib/BackupPC/CGI/Restore.pm to ensure that the list of hosts
+ presented for direct restore do have direct restore enabled. Reported
+ by Stephen Joyce.
+
+* Modified lib/BackupPC/CGI/RestoreFile.pm to replace \n with \r\n in
+ the restore http response headers. Patch submitted by Thomas Eckhardt.

+# Version 3.1.0beta1, 21 Oct 2007
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* When there is an existing partial, a new partials is only saved
+ if it has more files than the existing partial. Requested by
+ Carl Soderstrom.
+
+* Fixed handling of $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} for tar XferMethod.
+ Patch supplied by Frans Pop.
+
+* Fixed numeric column sorting in host summary table, reported by
+ Michael Pellegrino.
+
+* Fixed host CGI editor so it creates the new host's config.pl file
+ using the lower-case host name, since host names are mapped to
+ lower case when they are read from the hosts file. Reported by
+ Alexander Onic.
+
+* Applied documentation patches from Frans Pop. Also updated
+ Pod::Html to improve documentation formatting.
+
+* Added Polish translation from Semper.
+
+* Fixed BackupPC_nightly reporting of repeated pool file hashes.
+
+* Add run-time check that IO::Dirent is functioning correctly,
+ reported by Doug Lytle.
+
+* Added comment to Cmd settings in conf/config.pl that they are
+ not executed by a shell, as suggested by Erik van Linstee.
+
+* Added undefIfEmpty => 1 to lib/BackupPC/Config/Meta.pm for
+ RsyncRestoreArgs, TarClientRestoreCmd and SmbClientRestoreCmd
+ so that restores can be disabled by clear these fields in the
+ CGI editor. Patch supplied by Stephen Joyce
+
+* Replaced the FAQ link with Wiki in the navigation bar and added
+ mention of the Wiki to the documentation. Since these navigation
+ bar links are specified in the config file, upgrades will keep
+ the old FAQ link. The FAQ opening page will have a prominent
+ link to the Wiki.

+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Version 3.1.0beta0, 3 Sep 2007
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Added new script BackupPC_archiveStart that allows command-line
+ starting of archives. Based on script written by Sergey Kovzik,
+ which in turn was based on an earlier version by Holger Parplies.
+
+* Added Simplified Chinese CGI translation from Youlin Feng,
+ plus fixed a couple of cases where utf8 share names were
+ not displayed correctly.
+
+* Added sorting by column feature to host summary table in CGI
+ interface. Implemented by Jeremy Tietsort.
* Added optional support for IO::Dirent which allows inode information
to be extracted from the dirent directory structure. This allows
gain. On other file systems there is no real improvement. This
optimization is turned on automatically if IO::Dirent is installed.
-* Added sorting by column feature to host summary table in CGI
- interface. Implemented by Jeremy Tietsort.
+* Added some performance improvements to BackupPC::Xfer::RsyncFileIO
+ for the case of small files with cached checksums.
-* Added Simplified Chinese CGI translation from Youlin Feng.
+* Added check to BackupPC at startup that $TopDir can support
+ hardlinks. Also added check to BackupPC_dump that a hardlink
+ below $TopDir/pc/HOST can be made to below $TopDir/cpool.
+ Also added the need for a hard-link capable file system to
+ the documentation. Suggested by Nils Breunese.
* Added FreeBSD init.d file provided by Gabriel Rossetti.
provide a file list (without creating the archive).
Requested by Dirk.
+* Made the default charset for BackupPC_zipCreate cp1252, which
+ appears to work correctly with WinZip. Unfortunately there is
+ no clear standard for charset encoding in zip files.
+
+* Added support so that pre-3.0 backups with non-utf8 charsets
+ can be viewed and restored correctly. A new config variable
+ $Conf{ClientCharsetLegacy} specifies the charset used to
+ encode file names in legacy backups. This is only relevant
+ if you are trying to view or restore a backup made with
+ BackupPC 2.x and some of the file names have non-ascii
+ characters.
+
+* Added setting of the environment variable BPC_REQUSER to
+ the requesting user name in BackupPC prior to fork(), so
+ each child process inherits the value. Submitted by
+ Holger Parplies.
+
+* Fixed bug in rsync incrementals that happens on particular
+ file names when a file being backed up fails in both rsync
+ phases. Reported by Dan Smisko.
+
* Fixed single-restore file name charsets for IE, reported by
Francis Lessard.
* Fixed makeDist so that the --config-dir option to configure.pl
works correctly. Reported by Randy Barlow, Tony Shadwick and others.
+* Removed ConfDir from config editor (since it is hardcoded in
+ lib/BackupPC/Lib.pm). Also made TopDir and LogDir only visible
+ if useFHS (for non-FHS they are hardcoded in lib/BackupPC/Lib.pm).
+
* Applied patch from Holger Parplies that fixes cleanup of early abort
in BackupPC_dump.
* configure.pl clears $Conf{ParPath} if it doesn't point to a valid
executable.
-* Added freebsd-backuppc init.d script from Gabriel Rossetti.
-
* Added documentation for BackupPC_tarPCCopy, including use of -P option
to tar suggested by Daniel Berteaud.
