1.0.2 / 2024-08-23

  • Bugfix:

    • Minitar 1.0.1 was released with an unchanged gemspec. Reported by Debashish Biswas in #65.

1.0.1 / 2024-08-08

  • Bugfix:

    • Resolve a constant lookup issue. The accepted fix has been provided by Aram Price in #58.

1.0.0 / 2024-08-07

  • Breaking Changes:

    • Minimum Ruby version is 3.1.

    • The Archive::Tar::Minitar namespace has been completely removed and Minitar is a class instead of a module.

  • Enhancements:

    • Added Minitar.pack_as_file, originally proposed by John Prince back in 2011 #7.

0.12.1 / 2024-08-21

  • Reverted @adbbb9b596 to restore compatibility with Ruby < 2.0. Resolves [#63][#63] reported by Robert Schulze.

0.12 / 2024-08-06

  • Properly handle very long GNU filenames, resolving #46.
  • Handle very long GNU filenames that are 512 or more bytes, resolving #45. Originally implemented in #47 by Vijay, but accidentally closed.

0.11 / 2022-12-31

  • symlink support is complete. Merged as PR #42, rebased and built on top of PR #12 by fetep.

  • kymmt90 fixed a documentation error on Minitar.pack in PR #43.

  • This version is a soft-deprecation of all versions before Ruby 2.7, as they will no longer be tested in CI.

0.10 / 2022-03-26

  • nevesenin fixed an issue with long filename handling. Merged as PR #40.

0.9 / 2019-09-04

  • jtappa added the ability to skip fsync with a new option to Minitar.unpack and Minitar::Input#extract_entry. Provide :fsync => false as the last parameter to enable. Merged from a modified version of PR #37.

0.8 / 2019-01-05

  • inkstak resolved an issue introduced in the fix for #31 by allowing spaces to be considered valid characters in strict octal handling. Octal conversion ignores leading spaces. Merged from a slightly modified version of PR #35.

  • dearblue contributed PR #32 providing an explicit call to #bytesize for strings that include multibyte characters. The PR has been modified to be compatible with older versions of Ruby and extend tests.

  • Akinori MUSHA (knu) contributed PR #36 that treats certain badly encoded regular files (with names ending in /) as if they were directories on decode.

0.7 / 2018-02-19

  • Fixed issue #28 with a modified version of PR #29 covering the security policy and position for Minitar. Thanks so much to ooooooo_q for the report and an initial patch. Additional information was added as #30.

  • dearblue contributed PR #33 providing a fix for Minitar::Reader when the IO-like object does not have a #pos method.

  • Kevin McDermott contributed PR #34 so that an InvalidTarStream is raised if the tar header is not valid, preventing incorrect streaming of files from a non-tarfile. This is a minor breaking change, so the version has been bumped accordingly.

  • Kazuyoshi Kato contributed PR #26 providing support for the GNU tar long filename extension.

  • Addressed a potential DOS with negative size fields in tar headers (#31). This has been handled in two ways: the size field in a tar header is interpreted as a strict octal value and the Minitar reader will raise an InvalidTarStream if the size ends up being negative anyway.

0.6.1 / 2017-02-07

  • Fixed issue #24 where streams were being improperly closed immediately on open unless there was a block provided.

  • Hopefully fixes issue #23 by releasing archive-tar-minitar after minitar-cli is available.

0.6 / 2017-02-07

  • Breaking Changes:

    • Extracted bin/minitar into a new gem, minitar-cli. No, I am not going to bump the major version for this. As far as I can tell, few people use the command-line utility anyway. (Installing archive-tar-minitar will install both minitar and minitar-cli, at least until version 1.0.)

    • Minitar extraction before 0.6 traverses directories if the tarball includes a relative directory reference, as reported in #16 by @ecneladis. This has been disallowed entirely and will throw a SecureRelativePathError when found. Additionally, if the final destination of an entry is an already-existing symbolic link, the existing symbolic link will be removed and the file will be written correctly (on platforms that support symbolic links).

  • Enhancements:

    • Licence change. After speaking with Mauricio Fernández, we have changed the licensing of this library to Ruby and Simplified BSD and have dropped the GNU GPL license. This takes effect from the 0.6 release.
    • Printing a deprecation warning for including Archive::Tar to put Minitar in the top-level namespace.
    • Printing a deprecation warning for including Archive::Tar::Minitar into a class (Minitar will be a class for version 1.0).
    • Moved Archive::Tar::PosixHeader to Archive::Tar::Minitar::PosixHeader with a deprecation warning. Do not depend on Archive::Tar::Minitar::PosixHeader, as it will be moving to ::Minitar::PosixHeader in a future release.
    • Added an alias, ::Minitar, for Archive::Tar::Minitar, opted in with require 'minitar'. In future releases, this alias will be enabled by default, and the Archive::Tar namespace will be removed entirely for version 1.0.
    • Modified the handling of mtime in PosixHeader to do an integer conversion (#to_i) so that a Time object can be used instead of the integer value of the time object.
    • Writer::RestrictedStream was renamed to Writer::WriteOnlyStream for clarity. No alias or deprecation warning was provided for this as it is an internal implementation detail.
    • Writer::BoundedStream was renamed to Writer::BoundedWriteStream for clarity. A deprecation warning is provided on first use because a BoundedWriteStream may raise a BoundedWriteStream::FileOverflow exception.
    • Writer::BoundedWriteStream::FileOverflow has been renamed to Writer::WriteBoundaryOverflow and inherits from StandardError instead of RuntimeError. Note that for Ruby 2.0 or higher, an error will be raised when specifying Writer::BoundedWriteStream::FileOverflow because Writer::BoundedWriteStream has been declared a private constant.
    • Modified Writer#add_file_simple to accept the data for a file in opts[:data]. When opts[:data] is provided, a stream block must not be provided. Improved the documentation for this method.
    • Modified Writer#add_file to accept opts[:data] and transparently call Writer#add_file_simple in this case.
    • Methods that require blocks are no longer required, so the Archive::Tar::Minitar::BlockRequired exception has been removed with a warning (this may not work on Ruby 1.8).
    • Dramatically reduced the number of strings created when creating a POSIX tarball header.
    • Added a helper, Input.each_entry that iterates over each entry in an opened entry object.

  • Bugs:

    • Fix #2 to handle IO streams that are not seekable, such as pipes, STDIN, or STDOUT.
    • Fix #3 to make the test timezone resilient.
    • Fix #4 for supporting the reading of tar files with filenames in the GNU long filename extension format. Ported from @atoulme’s fork, originally provided by Curtis Sampson.
    • Fix #6 by making it raise the correct error for a long filename with no path components.
    • Fix #13 provided by @fetep fixes an off-by-one error on filename splitting.
    • Fix #14 provided by @kzys should fix Windows detection issues.
    • Fix #16 as specified above.
    • Fix an issue where Minitar.pack would not include Unix hidden files when creating a tarball.

  • Development:

    • Modernized minitar tooling around Hoe.
    • Added travis and coveralls.

0.5.1 / 2004-09-27
