+version 1.27.90 (Git)
+
+* New checkpoint action: totals
+
+The --checkpoint-action=totals option instructs tar to output the
+total number of bytes transferred at each checkpoint.
+
+* Extended checkpoint format specification.
+
+New conversion specifiers are implemented:
+
+  %d  -  output number of seconds since tar started
+  %T  -  output I/O totals
+  %{FMT}t - output current local time using FMT as strftime(3) format
+            If {FMT} is omitted, use %c
+  %{N}*   - pad output with spaces to the Nth column, or to the 
+            current screen width, if {N} is not given.
