-Changes in version 0.12:
+Changes in version 0.13:
-When dumping a character special file or a block special file, the devmajor
-and devminor fields were incorrectly filled with the values corresponding to
-the device containing the special file instead of the values corresponding
-to the special file itself.
+Skipping of unreadable files during multi-threaded archive creation with
+per-file compression has been fixed. Tarlz did produce empty lzip members,
+and sometines left the last files out of the archive.
-If when creating an archive tarlz can't find a user or group name in the
-database, it now saves just the numerical uid/gid instead of exiting with
-error status.
+Multi-threaded listing of tar.lz archives containing empty lzip members has
+been fixed. It listed members out of order and sometimes hung.
-When listing verbosely a character special file or a block special file, the
-devmajor and devminor values are now shown.
-
-The new option '-d, --diff', which reports differences between archive and
-file system, has been added.
-
-The new option '--ignore-ids', which tells '-d, --diff' to ignore
-differences in owner and group IDs, has been added. This option is useful
-when comparing an --anonymous archive.
-
-Listing of large seekable uncompressed archives is now much faster because
-tarlz now skips over member data instead of reading it.
+When creating an archive, negative modification times are now stored as cero
+(1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC). Negative times are not portable.
