-E2fsprogs 1.42.7 (January 15, 2013)
+E2fsprogs 1.43-WIP (July 8, 2013) -- 38cc555a5fc
+=================================
+
+Add support for the ext4 metadata checksum feature.
+
+Check to make sure file system features which can not be supported by
+HURD are not enabled if the file system is created to be
+HURD-compatible.
+
+
+Programmer's Notes
+------------------
+
+Reduce the use of libc functions in libext2fs that may not be present
+in the boot loader environment, at least for those functions that are
+needed by boot loadsers such as yaboot.
+
+Support for the MMP feature can now be disabled at compile time.
+
+
+E2fsprogs 1.42.8 (June 20, 2013)
+
+As a part of mke2fs's option parsing cleanup, the use of the -R option
+will give a warning that it is depreated (it has been so documented
+since 2005) and -E should be used instead.
+
+Mke2fs will not give warnings about the bigalloc and quota options in
+quiet mode.
+
+If an invalid journal size is given to mke2fs, it will now complain
+and exit sooner.
+
+Debugfs was erroneously giving spurious error messages for certain
+extent_inode subcommands which take arguments (split_node,
+replace_node, and insert_node). This has been fixed.
+
+Fix the parsing of the 's' (sectors) in parse_num_blocks2, which among
+other programs is used by mke2fs.
+
+Change mke2fs so that it does not set the root directory to the real
+uid/gid of the mke2fs process. Add the extended option root_owner to
+override this behavior.
+
+Fix resize2fs when shrinking file systems to make sure that bitmap
+blocks aren't left outside the bounds of the shrunken file system.
+This could happen with flex_bg file systems that were grown using
+the old online resizing algorithm.
+
+E2fsck will now detect and repair corrupted extent trees which contain
+invalid extents at the end of the extent tree leaf block.
+
+E2fsck will now longer complain about zero length extended attribute
+values.
+
+Fix a regression introduced in e2fsprogs v1.42 which caused e2image -s
+to crash.
+
+Add safety check so tune2fs will not attempt to set the inode size to
+be larger than the block size.
+
+Fix e2fsck so it can check a read-only root file system with an
+external journal. (Addresses Debian Bug: #707030
+
+Fix off-line resizing of file systems with flex_bg && !resize_inode
+(Addresses Debian Bug: #696746)
+
+Fix e2image with large (> 32-bit) file systems (Addresses Debian Bug:
+#703067)
+
+Enhance chattr to allow clearing the extent flag if the kernel allows
+migrating extent based files to use indirect blocks.
+
+Update German translation.
+
+Updated/fixed various man pages. (Addresses Debian Bugs: #712429,
+#712430, #707609)
+
+Fixed various Debian Packaging Issues (Addresses Debian Bug #708307)
+
+Programmer's Notes
+------------------
+
+Use secure_getenv() in preference to __secure_getenv().
+
+Optimize CPU utilization of ext2fs_bg_has_super().
+
+Fix ext2fs_llseek() on 32-bit i386 systems to work correctly when
+SEEK_CUR is used with large files.
+
+The ext2fs_read_inode_full() function will no longer use
+fs->read_inode() if the caller has requested more than the base 128
+byte inode structure and the inode size is greater than 128 bytes.
+
+Fix build failure with --enable-jbd-debug.
+
+Clean up filtering of outputs for the regression tests by using a
+common sed script.
+
+Fix gcc -Wall and clang nits.
+

+E2fsprogs 1.42.7 (January 21, 2013)
===================================
+Add warnings to mke2fs, resize2fs, and tune2fs that the bigalloc and
+quota features are still under development. For more information
+please see:
+ * https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Bigalloc
+ * https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Quota
+
Add some new options to filefrag from Lustre's patches to e2fsprogs:
* add -k option to print extents in kB-sized units (like df -k)
* add -b {blocksize} to print extents in blocksize units
an off-line resize which grows the file system could potentially
result in file system corruption.
+Fix a resize2fs bug which could cause it to corrupt bigalloc file
+systems when doing an off-line resize.
+
Further optimize resize2fs so it doesn't use quite as much CPU when
resizing very large file systems.
Fix e2freefrag so it works on 64-bit file systems, and so it uses much
less memory. (Addresses Google Bug: 7269948)
+Update the spd_readdir.c file in the contrib directory to include some
+additions which were made in 2008 that didn't get folded into the
+version which we checked into the e2fsprogs source tree. These
+enhancements include thread safety, support for readdir64_r(), and
+safe_getenv() support in case spd_readdir.so is used for setuid binaries.
+
Update Czech, Dutch, French, German, Polish, Sweedish, and Vietnamese
translations
location of the extent handle if its current location is at an

+Add a regression test to assure that e2fsck can correctly fix an
inconsistent interior node in an inode's extent tree.
+The ext2fs_{mark,unmark,test}_block_bitmap_range2() functions now
+correctly support bigalloc file systems which use store block usage
+information in units of clusters.

Fixed the help text in the configure script for --enable-quota.
