-Changes in version 0.13:
+Changes in version 0.14:
-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.
+The new option '--exclude', which excludes files matching a shell pattern,
+has been added.
-Multi-threaded listing of tar.lz archives containing empty lzip members has
-been fixed. It listed members out of order and sometimes hung.
+The new option '-h, --dereference', which instructs tarlz to follow symbolic
+links during archive creation, appending or comparison, has been added.
+(The short option name '-h' no longer means '--help').
-When creating an archive, negative modification times are now stored as cero
-(1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC). Negative times are not portable.
+Concatenation and appending to uncompressed archives and to standard output
+have been implemented.
+
+The new option '--out-slots', setting the number of output packets buffered
+per worker thread during multi-threaded creation and appending to compressed
+archives, has been added. Increasing the number of packets may increase
+compression speed if the files being archived are larger than 64 MiB
+compressed, but requires more memory.
