This file documents recent changes to MRBackup. Changes are listed in
reverse chronological/version order. The MRBackup version number
scheme follows these conventions:
The first digit is the version level. Changes in the version level
indicate major functionality changes and possible incompatibilities
with previous versions.
The second pair of digits following the period constitute the revision
level. Revisions generally indicate added or changed functionality
while maintaining upward compatibility.
If the revision level is followed by a letter (a-z), this indicates a
bug-fix release.

Bug Fixes

MRBackup could get into an error recovery loop if a file selected for
backup was deleted before it could be backed up.
Compression estimating was not working as documented. Also, to aid in
compression estimating, the final compression ratio is written to the
log file at the end of a backup.
In AmigaDOS backup mode, backup media overfull conditions can occur
through normal use, especially when using compression estimating.
MRBackup now anticipates/prevents more of these situations and handles
the ones it can't prevent in a more robust manner.
Under AmigaDOS 2.04(+), AmigaDOS backup mode, if a quick format fails
with an error 225 (ERROR_NOT_A_DOS_DISK), a normal format will be attempted

--
The AmigaDOS mode Restore function had a serious error in its filename
construction algorithm (a side-effect of recent `minor' changes) which
effectively blocked file restoration in AmigaDOS mode (from MRBackup,
at least). The problem is fixed.
