Item posted by Sergey Poznyakoff <gray> on Mon 01 May 2023 06:32:18 PM UTC.
GNU cpio version 2.14 is available for download.
New in this version:
New option --ignore-dirnlink
Valid in copy-out mode, it instructs cpio to ignore the actual number of links reported for each directory member and always store 2 instead.
Changes in --reproducible option
The --reproducible option implies --ignore-dirlink. In other words, it is equivalent to --ignore-devno --ignore-dirnlink --renumber-inodes.
Use GNU ls algorithm for deciding timestamp format in -tv mode
