Hi all, Tarsnap 1.0.40 is now available. This version brings several improvements compared to tarsnap 1.0.39: * tarsnap now accepts a --resume-extract option to skip extracting files whose filesize and mtime match existing files on disk. * tarsnap now accepts --progress-bytes SIZE, which prints a progress message after each SIZE bytes are processed, up to once per file. This can be disabled with --no-progress-bytes. * tarsnap now accepts a --passphrase method:arg option which accepts: * --passphrase dev:tty-stdin * --passphrase dev:stdin-once * --passphrase dev:tty-once * --passphrase env:VARNAME * --passphrase file:FILENAME * tarsnap now accepts a --dump-config option to print the command-line and all non-blank lines read from config files. * tarsnap now exits with an error if there are unused command-line arguments. (i.e. "tarsnap -d -f a1 a2", where "a2" is unused.) * Improved performance on some x86, amd64, and arm64 systems by using cryptographic instruction set extensions. * When sent SIGINFO or SIGUSR1, tarsnap now prints the number of files and the number of uncompressed bytes processed, in addition to the previous output. * A zsh completion file can be installed with configure --with-zsh-completion=DIR. As usual, there are also lots of minor build fixes, harmless bug fixes, and code cleanups. The new release is available from the usual location: https://www.tarsnap.com/download.html Users of the .deb packages we ship should find that their systems can now fetch tarsnap 1.0.40. Users of other packaging systems (FreeBSD / NetBSD / OpenBSD / Homebrew / MacPorts / Gentoo / OpenSUSE / etc.) should be able to fetch tarsnap 1.0.40 once the maintainers of the respective ports have updated them. -- Colin Percival Security Officer Emeritus, FreeBSD | The power to serve Founder, Tarsnap | www.tarsnap.com | Online backups for the truly paranoid
