Project Release Information2013-01-12 14:57 Better signal handling for NFS files, better handling for multi volume change operations, a workaround for incorrect buffer overflow messages from newer GCC versions, support for -xz and -lzip compression, many new -find operators, support for nanosecond timestamps on AIX, and several new supported platforms including cross compilation for Android. 2009-12-10 10:12 Many new platforms are supported. 64-bit compile support has been added for several platforms. A bug has been fixed that, under some constraints, printed the output on stderr instead of the expected stdout. Star -X name now works correctly. A workaround has been added for some POSIX violations introduced by POSIX.1-2008, and to deal with the problems that have been introduced by POSIX.1-2008 compliant platforms. 2008-04-14 14:05 CLI support was added for classical tar, cpio, pax, and gnutar. Reliable incremental backup and restore have been implemented using the basic ideas from ufsdump and ufsrestore. A configurable error control mechanism allows the user to selectively ignore certain problems. Star now implements a fast and reliable -copy option. Star now implements true and efficient sparse file support for Solaris 11 (and Solaris 10 updates). Star now implements reliable multi-volume support with automated tape end/size recognition. Star now uses "libfind" and thus allows the use of find(1) syntax in star command lines. 2008-03-20 12:40 star -version now prints the compile options. Star has been prepared for a future POSIX.1-2001 extended tar header keyword, "SCHILY.acl.type". Incremental dump mode now compares whether info->f_mtime >= Newer.tv_sec. 2008-03-04 16:34 The case of "star -f /dev/stdout" is caught and star is still allowed to avoid adding the archive file to the archive. The new diffopts=symperm feature allows you to exclude comparing permissions with symlinks. Project ResourcesProject Description Star is a very fast, POSIX-compliant tar archiver, maintained for more than 30 years. |
