* Sync up with OpenBSD. Too many changes to note, but the major featureskris2001-05-081-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | are: * Implement cpio compatibility mode when pax is invoked as cpio * Extend tar compatibility mode to cover many of the GNU tar single-letter options (bzip2 mode, aka -y/-j is not present in OpenBSD). When invoked as tar, pax is now full-featured enough for use by the ports collection to extract distfiles and create packages. * Many bug fixes to the operation of pax and the tar compatibility modes * Code fixes for things like correct string buffer termination. I tried to preserve existing FreeBSD fixes to this utility; please let me know if I have inadvertently spammed something.
* Add -z flag to pax to allow gzipping of archive output. Add -z and -Z (gzipkris2001-05-051-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | and compress) to pax when used in tar mode (invoked as 'tar') for compatibility with GNU tar. bzip2 functionality for further GNU tar compatibility will be added at a later date. Note in the manpage that -z is non-standard. Obtained from: OpenBSD Reviewed by: -hackers MFC after: 2 weeks

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | oo Turns out, it's pretty important if you use PAX for backup. In the man page for PAX, there is an error (OK, we could call it a "potentially catastrophic incompleteness"). It reads: > The command: > > pax -r -v -f filename > > gives the verbose table of contents for an archive stored in filename. Yup, it does do that. With a side effect: it also _replaces_ all the files that come in from the archive. As is my custom, I did my backup-validation real soon after the backup was written. Precisely because I've seen the same sort of thing happen on other systems. So all that file-restoring didn't do a lot of damage. Probably helped my fragmentation somewhat (aha, an online defragger?) It did confuse one hapless user, who lost an email message he _knew_ he hadn't deleted. Apparently the system restored the file as of just before that critical message came in. The correct entry should read: > The command: > > pax -v -f filename > > gives the verbose table of contents for an archive stored in filename.
