+
+2004-02-21 Sergey Poznyakoff <gray@Mirddin.farlep.net>
+
+ * src/create.c (dump_file0): The conditional at line
+ 1296 prevented incremental backups on individual files
+ from working, as reported by Andreas Schuldei
+ <andreas@schuldei.org>.
+
+ This is due to the condition
+
+ (0 < top_level || !incremental_option)
+
+ Removing it makes incremental backups work for individual
+ files as well as for directories. On the other hand, it does
+ not affect other functionality, as shown by the reasoning below:
+
+ To begin with, the two parts of this condition are mutually
+ superfluous, because
+
+ 1) when top_level < 0, incremental_option == 1
+ so the condition yields false
+ 2) when top_level >= 0, incremental_option == 0
+ so the condition yields true.
+
+ In other words, it is completely equivalent to
+
+ (!incremental_option)
+
+ Now, let's consider the effect of its removal. There are two cases:
+
+ 1) when incremental_option==1
+ This means incremental backup in progress. In this case dump_file
+ is invoked only for directories or for files marked with 'Y' by
+ get_directory_contents. The latter are those that did not meet the
+ condition in incremen.c:242, which is exactly the same condition
+ as this at create.c:1296. So, for these files the check
+ (!incremental_option) is useless, since the rest of the
+ conditional will yield false anyway. On the other hand, if
+ dump_file is invoked on a directory, the conditional will yield
+ false due to !S_ISDIR assertion, so these will be processed as usual.
+
+ Thus, for this case the extra condition (!incremental_option) is
+ irrelevant, and its removal won't alter the behavior of tar,
+ *except* that it will enable incremental backups on individual
+ files, which is the wanted effect.
+
+ 2) when incremental_option==0
+ In this case the condition yields true and its removal does not
+ affect the functionality.
+

+ * configure.ac: Raised patchlevel to 93
+ * src/incremen.c: Minor stylistic fixes.
+ * tests/listed01.sh: New test. Check listed incremental

+
+ * doc/tar.texi (posix compliance): Remove. The whole section
+ was a misunderstanding of what POSIXLY_CORRECT is supposed to
+ mean. The GNU Coding Standards says that POSIXLY_CORRECT
+ is for disabling extensions that are incompatible with POSIX:
+ it is not for disabling compatible extensions. All references
+ to this section removed.
+ (posix): This format is created only if the posix format is
+ specified; it is no longer created if gnu format is specified
+ and POSIXLY_CORRECT is set.
+ * src/tar.c (decode_options): Ignore POSIXLY_CORRECT.
+ POSIX does not specify the behavior of tar, so we should
+ not worry about POSIXLY_CORRECT here.
