Version 0.9.18
* Fix spurious tar file header emitted for unreadable files.
* Add 'ignore_inaccessible' option to tar() method.
* Add ReducedPrivileges filesystem.
* Add 'recursion_mode' option to find() method.
* Fix handling of 'detached' inodes in Real directories.
* Fix handling of inodes named '0'

Version 0.9.17
* Revert _write_file() refactor until further investigation is complete
Version 0.9.16
* Finally get around to adding this lovely Changes file
* Refactor tar _write_file() method
Refactor Filesys::POSIX::Userland::Tar->_write_file() method to ensure
the amount of data written for a file is indeed the amount committed to
in the archive member's header; if a file is shorter than indicated, then
sufficient padding is provided to compensate; and if a file grows longer
than promised, then the file output is truncated, and a warning is
emitted indicating as such.
Version 0.9.15
* Rename t/lib-Filesys-POSIX-Userland-Tar_race2.t to t/tar-race.t
* Update MANIFEST to add t/tar-race.t
* Update MANIFEST to add missing t/mount.t
* Remove useless shebang from t/false-filename.t
* Don't use Exporter in lib/Filesys/POSIX.pm
* Replace mkdtemp() with File::Temp::tempdir()
Fix OpenBSD CPANTS errors by replacing mkdtemp() with
File::Temp::tempdir()
* Replace qw// with qw()
* Fix CPANTS test failures
Modify Filesys::POSIX::Userland::Tar's $fs->tar() method option
'ignore_missing' to test $! for ENOENT rather than checking $@,
which can get localized to something other than what we used to
expect
Modify Filesys::POSIX::Userland::Tar's $fs->tar() to use a blocking
factor of 20 * 512 bytes; pad end of stream to prevent failure
untarring on BSD tar
Modify t/rename.t to be slightly less anal about expected output
from tar, to accommodate for slight differences in formatted
output between GNU tar and BSD tar
Modify t/tar-missing.t to use Test::Filesys::POSIX::Error function
throws_errno_ok()
Modify Test::Filesys::POSIX::Error to use Try::Tiny, rather than
plain block eval(), which causes issues with Perl <=5.12
Modify Test::Filesys::POSIX::Error to build a default number=>name
cache populated with number=>number, in case of an incompatible
Errno module
* Implement pax header support for tar implementation
Teach the tar implementation how to deal with long filenames and
symlinks by using pax extended headers. Add unit tests to ensure the
header length computation is correct.
* Remove $fs->import_module() mechanism
Modules previously declared as mixins in the Filesys::POSIX namespace
can declare themselves in their own namespace, but can selectively
export their methods into Filesys::POSIX; this has the side effect of
making POD for mixin modules render correctly on Meta::CPAN
Extension modules can be loaded by simply using 'use Some::Module';
their benefits can be used by any Filesys::POSIX object immediately
thereafter
* Refactor to use Errno for error reporting
Implement Filesys::POSIX::Error with throw() function to simplify
throwing of errors by number; sets $! to a specified value, and
throws a stringified $! with Carp::confess()
Implement Test::Filesys::POSIX::Error with throws_errno_ok() to
simplify refactor of unit tests to enforce new interface contract
Change a few errors thrown to an errno.h value which better matches
the behavior of a real Unix environment
Update POD to reflect exceptions thrown by their errno.h macro name
Update copyright on all files to 2014
* Update Makefile.PL
Add GitHub info to Makefile.PL
Update authorship to reflect PAUSE account email address
Update copyright in Makefile.PL
Add .perltidyrc to repository, MANIFEST
* Replace README with README.md
* Update synopsis of Filesys::POSIX::Real
Update synopsis, usage and exceptions indicated in the POD for the module
Filesys::POSIX::Real to accurately reflect current usage
* Replace failing t/tar-race.t with t/tar-missing.t
Rather than fork()ing a subprocess to perform the archiving, archive
to a file handle opened for /dev/null
Use map() to bring a file in from the real filesystem into a fake one,
and remove the referred file from $fs immediately prior to tar() to
ensure desired condition is triggered deterministically
Version 0.9.14
* Avoid archiving nonregular files and sockets
Implement $inode->sock() convenience function to quickly ascertain
whether an inode references a socket
Make Filesys::POSIX::Userland::Tar->tar() avoid attempting to
archive sockets at all
Avoid opening files for archival if they are non-regular files, or
are regular files of zero byte size
Localize usage of $@
* Mass perltidy
* Corrected error handling for later versions of Carp
Carp changes resulted in the $! variable being lost, so it
error details would not be reported; this caused test failures on some
systems. Fixed by copying the $! variable before passing it to confess
using stringification, i.e. "$!".
Version 0.9.13
* Add correct handling of real filesystem renames
The rename method in Filesys::POSIX was a generic manipulation of the
data structure without considering any additional change that might need
to be made on the backend storage (in particular,
Filesys::POSIX::Real::Directory).
This caused the object to be aware that new member had been
added, but to also remain conscious of the old member, which
still had a presence on disk and therefore was visible through
Filesys::POSIX::Real::Directory.
This change moves some of the generic rename handling logic from
Filesys::POSIX::rename into Filesys::POSIX::Directory::rename_member
and adds a Real-specific rename_member method to the
Filesys::POSIX::Real::Directory class, allowing it to handle its
own special case (use the actual rename function).
* Further conversion to Filesys::POSIX::Bits::System
Replaced an existing (and incomplete) bit conversion function with the
one provided by Filesys::POSIX::Bits::System to reduce code duplication.
Version 0.9.12
* Improve EOF detection when reading files for inclusion in tar
Version 0.9.11
* Avoid creating archives with mismatched file sizes
