Changes in version 0.25: The new option '--ignore-metadata', which makes '-d, --diff' ignore differences in file permissions, owner and group IDs, and modification time, has been added. '#include ' for major, minor, makedev on BSD systems. File diagnostics of '-z' have been reformatted as 'PROGRAM: FILE: MESSAGE'. The option '-o, --output' now creates missing intermediate directories when compressing to a file. The variable MAKEINFO has been added to configure and Makefile.in.
