# Version __VERSION__, __RELEASEDATE__
#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+* 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.
+
+* Added Polish translation from Semper.
+
+* Fixed BackupPC_nightly reporting of repeated pool file hashes,
+ reported by XXX.
+
+* Add run-time check that IO::Dirent is functioning correctly.
+
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+# 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
+ BackupPC to order some directory operations by inode, which on
+ some file systems (eg: ext3) can results in a 20-30% performance
+ gain. On other file systems there is no real improvement. This
+ optimization is turned on automatically if IO::Dirent is installed.
+
+* Added some performance improvements to BackupPC::Xfer::RsyncFileIO
+ for the case of small files with cached checksums.
+
+* 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.
+
+* Added -l and -L options to BackupPC_tarCreate so that
+ 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.
+
+* Applied small patch from Sergey to lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Tar.pm that makes
+ it ignore "socket ignored" error on incrementals.
+
+* Applied small patch from Sergey to bin/BackupPC_archiveHost.
+
+* Changed BackupPC_sendEmail so that summary admin email doesn't
+ include errors from hosts that have $Conf{BackupsDisable} set.
+ Reported by James Kyle. Also, per-user email is now disabled
+ when $Conf{BackupsDisable} is set.
+
+* Added RsyncdUserName to the config editor. Reported by Vicent Roca Daniel.
+
+* $Conf{IncrLevels} is now defaulted if it is not defined.
+
+* configure.pl clears $Conf{ParPath} if it doesn't point to a valid
+ executable.
+
+* Added documentation for BackupPC_tarPCCopy, including use of -P option
+ to tar suggested by Daniel Berteaud.
+
+* Config editor now removes white space at start of exec path.
+ Reported by Christoph Iwasjuta.
+
+* CgiDateFormatMMDD == 2 gives a YYYY-MM-DD format for CGI dates,
+ suggested by Imre.
+
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Version 3.0.0, 28 Jan 2007
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* BackupPC_sendEmail now correctly sends admin email if backups
+ were skipped because the disk was too full, reported by Dan
+ Pritts.
+
+* BackupPC_Admin now uses $Conf{UmaskMode}, so config.pl files
+ written by the editor have more restrictive permissions.
+ Reported by Tim Massey.
+
+* Host summary now shows active backups on disabled hosts,
+ from Jono Woodhouse.
+
+* Fixed host LOG link and LOG list order, reported by Tim Massey.
+
+* Moved Encode.pm version check to start of configure.pl so it
+ produces a useful error message if Encode.pm is too old.
+
+* Fixed hrefs to configuration documentation to handle changes
+ in the way perl generates the anchors. Reported by Philip
+ Gleghorn.
+
+* Host name links in LOG files now allow "." in the host name.
+ Reported by Jean-Michel Beuken.
+
+* Fixes to lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Tar.pm for tar 1.16: allow 1
+ (ie: 256) as a successful exit status and match "Total
+ bytes read" message for restores. First reported by
+ Torsten Sadowski and debugged by Ralf Gross and Holger
+ Parplies.
+
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Version 3.0.0beta3, 3 Dec 2006
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Removed default paths from conf/config.pl so configure.pl will
+ determine the correct ones at install time. Avoids problem of
+ the config editor complaining about bad executable paths the
+ first time you use it.
+
+* Changed first byte of compressed files with rsync checksums appended
+ to 0xd7 to allow correct protocol_version >= 27 md4 checksums to be
+ written. Old cached checksum files have a first byte 0xd6 and are
+ now considered to be uncached. They will be automatically updated
+ as needed. This avoids the cached checksum warnings in beta2.
+
+* BackupPC_tarPCCopy now handles all file types correctly. Reported
+ by George Avrunin.
+
+* Fixed BackupPC_nightly to finish pending deletes before renaming
+ pool chains.
+
+* Fixes for rsync restore where hardlink is to file outside of the
+ top-level restore directory. Reported by George Avrunin, who helped
+ with debugging.
+
+* Fixes for checksum mismatch on restore for certain file sizes.
+ Reported by George Avrunin and others.
+
+* Fix for config.pl writing code to handle multi-line expressions.
+ Reported by David Relson and others.
+
+* Fix for CGI editor when deleting hash entries whose keys are
+ non alphanumeric. Report by David Relson and Aaron Ciarlotta.
+
+* Two fixes to configure.pl from Andreas Vögele.
+
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Version 3.0.0beta2, 18 Nov 2006
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Fix for final md4 digest check on rsync transfers >= 512MB when protocol
+ version >= 27 and checksums are not cached. Reported by Garith Dugmore
+ and Dale Renton.
+
+* Config Editor "Save" button is now always visible, but greyed out
+ until there are changes to save.
+
+* Config editor allows other tabs to be selected when there is an
+ error, which allows you to fix an error (eg: missing binary) in
+ an exiting config file. Errors are now displayed at the top of
+ the page in addition to next to the erroneous setting.
+
+* configure.pl checks version of Encode.pm. Reported by Chris Stone.
+
+* Several fixes to bin/BackupPC_fixupBackupSummary from Stian Jordet.
+
+* Fixed config.pl editor writing to solve bug with multi-line text
+ strings ending in newline. Reported and root caused by Les Stott
+ and Jerry Groendyke.
+
+* Fixed error recovery case in BackupPC::PoolWrite, reported by
+ Samuel Bancal.
+
+* Fixed table width in backup browsing to avoid Firefox layout anomoly,
+ provided by Jono Woodhouse.
+
+* CSS file updates from Jono Woodhouse. Prior (v2) version is included
+ as BackupPC_stnd_orig.css in case people prefer the old skin.
+
+* More compact host summary, including disabled host indication,
+ from Jono Woodhouse.
+
+* New directory/file/hardlink and symlink image icons from Sean Cameron
+ and Jono Woodhouse, making directory browse more compact.
+
+* BackupPC.pid is now world readable, suggested by Casper Thomsen.
+
+* Reordered the Server navigation bar links, suggested by David Relson.
+
+* Fixed typos in init.d/src/gentoo-backuppc, configure.pl and config.pl
+ reported by David Relson.
+
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Version 3.0.0beta1, 30 Jul 2006
+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Fixed several Xfer charset conversions.
+
+* Added some CGI utf8 conversions from Rodrigo Real and Vincent
+ Fleuranceau.
+
+* Rsync transfers now correctly handle file names with \n or \r.
+
+* Host name is forced to lower case, to match 2.x.
+
+* Fixed LOG file naming in BackupPC_restore and BackupPC_archive.
+
+* GFK applied fr.pm corrections from Nicolas Stransky.
+
+* Updated init.d/src scripts for FHS (ie: replaced __TOPDIR__/log
+ with __LOGDIR__ and __TOPDIR__/conf with __CONFDIR__). Patch
+ provided by Rodrigo Real.
+
+* Added --log-dir and --conf-dir options to configure.pl.
+ Reported by Vincent Fleuranceau.
+
+* Updated File::RsyncP version check in configure.pl, reported
+ by Vincent Fleuranceau. Changed File::RsyncP version to 0.64.
+

+#------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
* Added configuration and host CGI editor.
* Added rsync hardlink support. Requires latest version of
* Added optional checking of exit status of Dump/Restore/Archive Pre/Post
UserCmd, requested by Kiko Jover, Matthias Bertschy and others.
+* For new installations configure.pl tries to comply with the file
+ system hierarchy standard, which means all the configuration files
+ below /etc/BackupPC and log files go below /var/log/BackupPC.
+
* Added Slackware init.d script from Tony Nelson.
* Fixed error reporting when restore/archive fail to write the
