Critical Bugfixes:
* Erik Andersen -- Fixed a bug that could crash the shell in 0.50
when pressing <Enter> on an empty line.
* Gennady Feldman -- Fixed a bug that could crash the shell in 0.50
when performing an 'export' in the shell.
* Gennady Feldman -- fixed a syslogd bug where syslogd could cause
the init process to block (which can break systems badly).
New Applets:
* Sterling Huxley -- contributed a new vi applet! This is a very
functional vi implementation in Only 22k.
* Erik Andersen -- added env applet
* Erik Andersen -- Split utility.c into libbb
Other changes:
* Erik Andersen -- Split utility.c into libbb, which provides a
much cleaner was for us to include shared functionality.
* Erik Andersen -- Reorganized how and when busybox includes
syscalls, aiding portability and (in this case) making the
busybox work on ia64 systems.
* Erik Andersen -- dpkg.c cleanup to use the updated gunzip interface.
* Erik Andersen -- Cleanups for libc5, glibc, and uClibc.
* Erik Andersen and Matt Kraai -- Cleanups for the human-readable
output from ls, du, and df.
* John Beppu -- The busybox.pod documentation is now automagically
generated from the source code. This makes it _much_ simpler.
Now to update the docs, just update the usage message...
* Dirk Behme <dirk.behme@de.bosch.com> -- Adjusted MIPS insmod
support a bit for Mips RS3.
* Christophe Boyanique -- egrep invoked the "init" applet in 0.50!
* Larry Doolittle -- Added -Wshadow and fixed a number of shadowed
variables
* David Douthitt -- fixed 'find -print'
* Gennady Feldman -- fixes for the syslogd circular buffer code
* Jeff Garzik -- a number of structural cleanups, fixes for -Wshadow
bugs, and similar problems.
* Matt Kraai -- Added a new 'shutdown' action to busybox init. Now
you can specify arbitrary behavior for 'ctrlaltdel' so now
pressing CTL-ALT-DEL can do something else (or nothing).
* Andreas Neuhaus <andy@fasta.fh-dortmund.de> -- fix for merging
kernel command line environment variables into child environment
for init.c
* Matt Kraai -- Added a new 'shutdown' action to busybox init. Now
you can specify arbitrary behavior for 'ctrlaltdel' without that
behavior needing to be a reboot.
* Glenn McGrath -- Fixed problems with dpkg and dpkg-deb applets
* Glenn McGrath -- Don't try to automount devfs
* Vladimir N. Oleynik -- optimizations for more.c
* Vladimir N. Oleynik -- Added locale support to the shell.
* Vladimir N. Oleynik -- moved struct applet from busybox.c to applets.c
* Vladimir N. Oleynik -- A size optimization for rdate
* Vladimir N. Oleynik -- Fixed printf applets's locale handling
* Vladimir N. Oleynik -- More cmdedit updates
* Pierre Peiffer <pierre.peiffer@sxb.bsf.alcatel.fr> -- made
find_pid_by_name() cope with swapped out processes.
* Jari Ruusu <jari.ruusu@pp.inet.fi> -- updates so that setting
D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 now works as expected.
* Anthony Towns <aj@azure.humbug.org.au> -- fixed a bug with
sed address range handling
* Dmitry Zakharov <dmit@crp.bank.gov.ua> -- a number of updates
to wget: support for ftp downloads, basic HTTP basic auth,
handling of http redirects, protocol changed to 1.0 to stop
servers from requesting chunked encoding, when attempting to
continue an aborted download but server doesn't support restarts
then reopen output file in write mode, bugfix: when content-length
not given, wget didn't download anything, if -c is not specified,
it no longer default to restarting an aborted download.
