1gpgdir-1.6 (02/17/2008):
2    - Bugfix to not include previously encrypted files (i.e. those with a .gpg
3      extension) in the encryption/decryption file list.  This bug was
4      introduced in gpgdir-1.5 when a change was made to ignore ascii-armored
5      files.
6    - Added added LC_ALL=C locale setting for the install.pl script (this
7      should help to ensure gpgdir is properly installed on most systems). Two
8      new command line arguments --LC_ALL and --no-LC_ALL also allow the
9      locale setting to be changed or not used at all.
10    - Added --Exclude-mod-regex option to the install.pl script so that it is
11      possible to force the exclusion of perl modules that gpgdir would
12      normally install. This is useful for ensuring that gpgdir references
13      perl modules that are already installed in the system perl library tree
14      instead of using those that are installed in /usr/lib/gpgdir.
15    - Updated to display command line usage warnings without automatically
16      displaying the entire usage() page (which is quite long).
17
18gpgdir-1.5 (08/31/2007):
19    - Added the --Symmetric option so that files can be encrypted/decrypted
20      via a symmetric encryption algorithm (GnuPG commonly uses CAST5 for
21      this).
22    - Added the --Plain-ascii option so that GnuPG is invoked with the -a
23      option so that encrypted files are ascii armored instead of encrypted in
24      binary form.
25    - Bugfix to ensure not to delete zero-size files if a bad password is
26      given (gpgdir now just throws a warning and exits in this case).
27    - Minor code enhancements to provide a consistent hash_init() invocation
28      with the same options hash.
29    - Updated to exclude .asc files from the encryption/decryption process.
30
31gpgdir-1.4 (07/20/2007):
32    - (Anthony Chivetta) Submitted patch to implement the
33      --overwrite-encrypted command line argument to allow previously
34      encrypted files to be overwritten. This is useful for updating an
35      encrypted directory with new versions of the previously encrypted files.
36      Also added the --overwrite-decrypted command line argument to perform
37      the same function for previously decrypted files.
38    - (Anthony Chivetta) Submitted patch to fix a bug where a filename of
39      "0.gpg" could not be decrypted because "0" does not evaluate to a true
40      value.
41
42gpgdir-1.3 (06/09/2007):
43    - Added --Obfuscate mode so that the files within a directory can be
44      altered into unrecognizable names (which are stored within the file
45      .gpgdir_map_file within each sub-directory, and this file is itself
46      encrypted).  The obfuscated file names are reversed when a directory
47      is decrypted.
48    - Added the --Agent-info command line argument so that the value of the
49      GPG_AGENT_INFO environment variable can be specified on the gpgdir
50      command line.
51
52gpgdir-1.2 (05/28/2007):
53    - Added support for installing gpgdir on Windows under Cygwin (via the
54      install.pl script). Installing gpgdir on FreeBSD systems also works.
55    - Added support for installing gpgdir within a user home directory without
56      the need for root access (this requires installing gpgdir with the
57      install.pl script).
58    - Added --agent to have gpgdir acquire gpg key password from a running
59      gpg-agent instance.
60    - Added --no-password so gpgdir can use a gpg key with no associated
61      password (this is not common).  The user is not prompted for a password
62      in this case.
63
64gpgdir-1.1 (05/21/2007):
65    - Added the ability to securely delete the original versions of files with
66      the 'wipe' program (after they have been successfully encrypted).  Also
67      added --wipe-path to specify a path to the wipe binary (the default is
68      /usr/bin/wipe), --wipe-interactive to force the wipe program to prompt
69      the user before a file is deleted, and --wipe-cmdline to allow the user
70      to build a set of command line arguments that are passed to the wipe
71      program.
72    - Added --Force to have gpgdir skip over the error condition where a file
73      cannot be deleted (because of a permissions issue for example).
74    - Added --Trial-run to allow the user to see what actions gpgdir would
75      take to encrypt or decrypt files, but no files are actually modified.
76    - Added --Interactive to have gpgdir prompt the user before every file is
77      encrypted, decrypted.
78    - Added the gpgdir.SlackBuild script (contributed by pyllyukko originally
79      for the psad project) for building gpgdir on Slackware systems.
80
81gpgdir-1.0.3 (09/17/2006):
82    - Minor bugfix to correct 1.0.1 version number (which should have been set
83      to 1.0.2) in the gpgdir RPM spec file.
84
85gpgdir-1.0.2 (09/17/2006):
86    - Minor bugfix to correct 1.0 version number (which should have been set
87      to 1.0.1).  The result is the 1.0.2 release.
88
89gpgdir-1.0.1 (09/16/2006):
90    - Added --quiet option to have gpgdir print as little as possible to the
91      screen when encrypting or decrypting a directory.
92    - Added x86_64 RPM (original patch from Mate Wierdl adapted for gpgdir).
93
94gpgdir-1.0 (09/13/2006):
95    - Added --Key-id command line argument so that use_key can be overridden
96      from the command line
97    - Made the argument to use_key not have to strictly be a keyID since GnuPG
98      allows a unique string match on keys in the key ring
99    - Added --Default-key to allow the user to have gpgdir use the default
100      key that is defined by GnuPG within the ~/.gnupg/options file.
101    - Updated the .gpgdirrc file to include the line "default_key" to allow
102      the user to have gpgdir prefer to use the GnuPG default key.
103    - Added the ChangeLog.svn file to show exactly which files have been
104      changed from release to release, and what the corresponding Subversion
105      log messages are.
106    - Minor documentation updates.
107
108gpgdir-0.9.9 (09/07/2006):
109    - Added RPM .spec file to build gpgdir as an RPM.
110    - Added the --Skip-mod-install command line argument to install.pl to
111      allow all perl module installs to be skipped.
112    - Added the --force-mod-regex command line argument to install.pl to allow
113      a regex match on perl module names to force matching modules to be
114      installed.
115    - Updated to TermReadKey-2.30 from 2.21.
116
117gpgdir-0.9.8 (07/03/2006):
118    - Updated to use GnuPG::Interface instead of GnuPG module.  This should
119      fix the incompatibility issues seen between the GnuPG module and some
120      GnuPG installations.
121    - Added perl module installation code from fwknop (see
122      http://www.cipherdyne.org/fwknop/).  This allows gpgdir to
123      preferentially use any perl modules that are already be installed on the
124      system.
125
126gpgdir-0.9.4 (10/12/2005):
127    - Updated test mode to encrypt and decrypt a testing file within the
128      directory to be encrypted or decrypted.  This file is located at
129      <dir>/gpgdir_test, and is removed after the test is completed.
130    - Bugfix for "protocol error: expected SHM_GET_XXX got GOOD_PASSPHRASE"
131      error in GnuPG module.
132
133gpgdir-0.9.3 (02/20/2005):
134    - Added --Include and --Include-from options to allow inclusion
135      regular expressions to be specified.
136    - Bugfix for not decrypting filesnames that contain spaces.
137
138gpgdir-0.9.2 (01/05/2005):
139    - Added preservation of file mtime and atime values (may be disabled
140      with the --no-preserve-times option).
141    - Added testing encryption and decryption of dummy file (may be
142      disabled with --skip-test) by default for both encrypt and decrypt
143      modes.
144    - Added --test-mode to run encrypt -> decrypt test and exit.
145    - Removed unnecessary compression options.
146    - Updated get_homedir() to reference HOME environmental variable if
147      the /etc/passwd file does not exist (OS X being a good example).
148    - Added --verbose mode.
149    - Updated output to generate errors on a per-file basis instead of
150      dumping them at the end of an encrypt/decrypt operation.
151
152gpgdir-0.9.1 (11/11/2004):
153    - Updated GnuPG.pm perl module to handle return code of PLAINTEXT
154      which seems to be returned by GunPG now (as of version 1.2.6)
155      instead of DECRYPTION_OKAY upon a successful decryption.
156
157gpgdir-0.9 (09/12/2004):
158    - Added --gnupg-dir option to allow a user to specify a different
159      user's .gnupg directory for encryption keys.
160    - Switched to "[+]" (and related) message prefixes.
161
162gpgdir-0.8 (05/29/2004):
163    - Added --Exclude and --Exclude-from options to allow files to be
164      excluded based on regex matches.
165    - Reworked error messages so they contain the filename associated
166      with each error.
167
168gpgdir-0.4 (04/23/2004):
169    - Added --pw-file option so that a decryption password can be
170      read out of a file.
171    - Better directory validation (filesystem -e and -d checks).
172    - Added INSTALL file.
173    - Updated man page and README file.
174
175gpgdir-0.3 (09/27/2003):
176    - Bundled perl modules GnuPG and TermReadKey with gpgdir.
177    - Modified install.pl and gpgdir to install and use GnuPG and
178      TermReadKey modules from the /usr/lib/gpgdir directory.
179    - Added check_commands() subroutine from psad.
