Subject: (to_oct): Prepend leading zeros, not spaces.
X-Git-Url: https://git.dogcows.com/gitweb?a=commitdiff_plain;h=805b08cf02f07c2b63f25890050042b518002bc3;p=chaz%2Ftar

(to_oct): Prepend leading zeros, not spaces.
Output a trailing NUL unless the value won't fit without it;
this is backward compatible with Unix tar (and with GNU Emacs).
(finish_header): No need to append NUL to chksum, now that
to_oct is doing it.
