+E2fsprogs 1.45.1 (May 12, 2019)
+===============================
+
+Updates/Fixes since v1.45.0:
+
+UI and Features
+---------------
+
+Teach the e2scrub and e2scub_all commands the -n option, which prints
+what these commands would do.
+
+Finalize the casefold support so it is synchronized with what we
+actually shipped in the kernel. This includes updating to Unicode 12.1,
+dropping ASCII casefolding support, and switching from NFKD to NFD. The
+the ext4 feature name also changed from fname_encoding to casefold.
+Add support for casefold to dumpe2fs and debugfs.
+
+Debugfs now prints non-printable characters using C-style hex escape
+sequences (e.g., "\xc1" instead of M-A). The old scheme printed
+filenames in an ambiguous way, which complicated using debugfs for ext4
+encryption regression tests.
+
+E2fsck now checks to make sure that all unused bits in the block
+allocation bitmaps are set; if there are some unset bits in the block
+bitmaps for file systems where the blocks_per_group is less than
+8*blocksize (not the default), this can confuse the kernel's multi-block
+allocator and return a bogus free extent. E2fsprogs guarantees this
+when it writes out the bitmap blocks, but it's possible that file system
+blocks could have gotten corrupted since the last time e2fsprogs wrote
+out the bitmap blocks.
+
+E2fsck now has support write out a problem code log which can provide
+more debugging and monitoring information. This can be configured using
+/etc/e2fsck.conf.
+
+
+Fixes
+-----
+
+Teach e2scrub and e2scrub to give more intelligible error messages when
+the lvm2 and util-linux packages are not installed, or if the commands
+are not run as root.
+
+Teach e2scrub_all to skip trying to run e2scrub on a logical volume if
+its volume group did not have enough space to create a snapshot.
+(Addresses Debian Bug: #924301)
+
+E2scrub will tag its snapshots with UDISK_IGNORE so they do not show up
+in GUI's. (Addresses Debian Bug: #926112)
+
+Mark the e2scrub service files to indicate that CAP_SYS_ADMIN and
+CAP_SYS_RAWIO are required. This avoids errors when e2scrub is run an
+container where root does not have these capabilities. (Addresses
+Debian Bug: #926138)
+
+Fix mke2fs's check for absurdly large disks. Previously check was 2^10
+too small, so mke2fs would fail when trying to format a 900TB file
+system.
+
+Fixed debugfs so it correctly prints ea_in_inode xattr values.
+
+Fixed various casefold bugs.
+
+
+Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Synchronized changes from Android's AOSP e2fsprogs tree.
+
+Fix autoheader warnings caused by a missing template in AC_CHECK_LIB.
+
+Fix the the "make install-strip" command.
+
+Dropped utf8_* and nls_* symbols from the libext2fs shared library, to
+avoid namespace contamination.
+
+Fix the f_valid_ea_in_inode test so actually tests the ea_in_inode
+feature.
+
+Fixed various debian packaging issues. (Addresses Debian Bug: #924275)
