1gpgdir-1.7 (02/18/2008):
2    - Bugfix to ensure that encrypted directories can actually be decrypted.
3      This bug was reported by Per Ronny Westin.
4    - Updated to use the ".asc" extension for encrypted files in --Plain-ascii
5      mode.
6    - Added gpgdir test suite.  All future gpgdir releases (and including this
7      1.7 release) require that all gpgdir tests pass on the systems where
8      gpgdir is developed.
9
10gpgdir-1.6 (02/17/2008):
11    - Bugfix to not include previously encrypted files (i.e. those with a .gpg
12      extension) in the encryption/decryption file list.  This bug was
13      introduced in gpgdir-1.5 when a change was made to ignore ascii-armored
14      files.
15    - Added added LC_ALL=C locale setting for the install.pl script (this
16      should help to ensure gpgdir is properly installed on most systems). Two
17      new command line arguments --LC_ALL and --no-LC_ALL also allow the
18      locale setting to be changed or not used at all.
19    - Added --Exclude-mod-regex option to the install.pl script so that it is
20      possible to force the exclusion of perl modules that gpgdir would
21      normally install. This is useful for ensuring that gpgdir references
22      perl modules that are already installed in the system perl library tree
23      instead of using those that are installed in /usr/lib/gpgdir.
24    - Updated to display command line usage warnings without automatically
25      displaying the entire usage() page (which is quite long).
26
27gpgdir-1.5 (08/31/2007):
28    - Added the --Symmetric option so that files can be encrypted/decrypted
29      via a symmetric encryption algorithm (GnuPG commonly uses CAST5 for
30      this).
31    - Added the --Plain-ascii option so that GnuPG is invoked with the -a
32      option so that encrypted files are ascii armored instead of encrypted in
33      binary form.
34    - Bugfix to ensure not to delete zero-size files if a bad password is
35      given (gpgdir now just throws a warning and exits in this case).
36    - Minor code enhancements to provide a consistent hash_init() invocation
37      with the same options hash.
38    - Updated to exclude .asc files from the encryption/decryption process.
39
40gpgdir-1.4 (07/20/2007):
41    - (Anthony Chivetta) Submitted patch to implement the
42      --overwrite-encrypted command line argument to allow previously
43      encrypted files to be overwritten. This is useful for updating an
44      encrypted directory with new versions of the previously encrypted files.
45      Also added the --overwrite-decrypted command line argument to perform
46      the same function for previously decrypted files.
47    - (Anthony Chivetta) Submitted patch to fix a bug where a filename of
48      "0.gpg" could not be decrypted because "0" does not evaluate to a true
49      value.
50
51gpgdir-1.3 (06/09/2007):
52    - Added --Obfuscate mode so that the files within a directory can be
53      altered into unrecognizable names (which are stored within the file
54      .gpgdir_map_file within each sub-directory, and this file is itself
55      encrypted).  The obfuscated file names are reversed when a directory
56      is decrypted.
57    - Added the --Agent-info command line argument so that the value of the
58      GPG_AGENT_INFO environment variable can be specified on the gpgdir
59      command line.
60
61gpgdir-1.2 (05/28/2007):
62    - Added support for installing gpgdir on Windows under Cygwin (via the
63      install.pl script). Installing gpgdir on FreeBSD systems also works.
64    - Added support for installing gpgdir within a user home directory without
65      the need for root access (this requires installing gpgdir with the
66      install.pl script).
67    - Added --agent to have gpgdir acquire gpg key password from a running
68      gpg-agent instance.
69    - Added --no-password so gpgdir can use a gpg key with no associated
70      password (this is not common).  The user is not prompted for a password
71      in this case.
72
73gpgdir-1.1 (05/21/2007):
74    - Added the ability to securely delete the original versions of files with
75      the 'wipe' program (after they have been successfully encrypted).  Also
76      added --wipe-path to specify a path to the wipe binary (the default is
77      /usr/bin/wipe), --wipe-interactive to force the wipe program to prompt
78      the user before a file is deleted, and --wipe-cmdline to allow the user
79      to build a set of command line arguments that are passed to the wipe
80      program.
81    - Added --Force to have gpgdir skip over the error condition where a file
82      cannot be deleted (because of a permissions issue for example).
83    - Added --Trial-run to allow the user to see what actions gpgdir would
84      take to encrypt or decrypt files, but no files are actually modified.
85    - Added --Interactive to have gpgdir prompt the user before every file is
86      encrypted, decrypted.
87    - Added the gpgdir.SlackBuild script (contributed by pyllyukko originally
88      for the psad project) for building gpgdir on Slackware systems.
89
90gpgdir-1.0.3 (09/17/2006):
91    - Minor bugfix to correct 1.0.1 version number (which should have been set
92      to 1.0.2) in the gpgdir RPM spec file.
93
94gpgdir-1.0.2 (09/17/2006):
95    - Minor bugfix to correct 1.0 version number (which should have been set
96      to 1.0.1).  The result is the 1.0.2 release.
97
98gpgdir-1.0.1 (09/16/2006):
99    - Added --quiet option to have gpgdir print as little as possible to the
100      screen when encrypting or decrypting a directory.
101    - Added x86_64 RPM (original patch from Mate Wierdl adapted for gpgdir).
102
103gpgdir-1.0 (09/13/2006):
104    - Added --Key-id command line argument so that use_key can be overridden
105      from the command line
106    - Made the argument to use_key not have to strictly be a keyID since GnuPG
107      allows a unique string match on keys in the key ring
108    - Added --Default-key to allow the user to have gpgdir use the default
109      key that is defined by GnuPG within the ~/.gnupg/options file.
110    - Updated the .gpgdirrc file to include the line "default_key" to allow
111      the user to have gpgdir prefer to use the GnuPG default key.
112    - Added the ChangeLog.svn file to show exactly which files have been
113      changed from release to release, and what the corresponding Subversion
114      log messages are.
115    - Minor documentation updates.
116
117gpgdir-0.9.9 (09/07/2006):
118    - Added RPM .spec file to build gpgdir as an RPM.
119    - Added the --Skip-mod-install command line argument to install.pl to
120      allow all perl module installs to be skipped.
121    - Added the --force-mod-regex command line argument to install.pl to allow
122      a regex match on perl module names to force matching modules to be
123      installed.
124    - Updated to TermReadKey-2.30 from 2.21.
125
126gpgdir-0.9.8 (07/03/2006):
127    - Updated to use GnuPG::Interface instead of GnuPG module.  This should
128      fix the incompatibility issues seen between the GnuPG module and some
129      GnuPG installations.
130    - Added perl module installation code from fwknop (see
131      http://www.cipherdyne.org/fwknop/).  This allows gpgdir to
132      preferentially use any perl modules that are already be installed on the
133      system.
134
135gpgdir-0.9.4 (10/12/2005):
136    - Updated test mode to encrypt and decrypt a testing file within the
137      directory to be encrypted or decrypted.  This file is located at
138      <dir>/gpgdir_test, and is removed after the test is completed.
139    - Bugfix for "protocol error: expected SHM_GET_XXX got GOOD_PASSPHRASE"
140      error in GnuPG module.
141
142gpgdir-0.9.3 (02/20/2005):
143    - Added --Include and --Include-from options to allow inclusion
144      regular expressions to be specified.
145    - Bugfix for not decrypting filesnames that contain spaces.
146
147gpgdir-0.9.2 (01/05/2005):
148    - Added preservation of file mtime and atime values (may be disabled
149      with the --no-preserve-times option).
150    - Added testing encryption and decryption of dummy file (may be
151      disabled with --skip-test) by default for both encrypt and decrypt
152      modes.
153    - Added --test-mode to run encrypt -> decrypt test and exit.
154    - Removed unnecessary compression options.
155    - Updated get_homedir() to reference HOME environmental variable if
156      the /etc/passwd file does not exist (OS X being a good example).
157    - Added --verbose mode.
158    - Updated output to generate errors on a per-file basis instead of
159      dumping them at the end of an encrypt/decrypt operation.
160
161gpgdir-0.9.1 (11/11/2004):
162    - Updated GnuPG.pm perl module to handle return code of PLAINTEXT
163      which seems to be returned by GunPG now (as of version 1.2.6)
164      instead of DECRYPTION_OKAY upon a successful decryption.
165
166gpgdir-0.9 (09/12/2004):
167    - Added --gnupg-dir option to allow a user to specify a different
168      user's .gnupg directory for encryption keys.
169    - Switched to "[+]" (and related) message prefixes.
170
171gpgdir-0.8 (05/29/2004):
172    - Added --Exclude and --Exclude-from options to allow files to be
173      excluded based on regex matches.
174    - Reworked error messages so they contain the filename associated
175      with each error.
176
177gpgdir-0.4 (04/23/2004):
178    - Added --pw-file option so that a decryption password can be
179      read out of a file.
180    - Better directory validation (filesystem -e and -d checks).
181    - Added INSTALL file.
182    - Updated man page and README file.
183
184gpgdir-0.3 (09/27/2003):
185    - Bundled perl modules GnuPG and TermReadKey with gpgdir.
186    - Modified install.pl and gpgdir to install and use GnuPG and
187      TermReadKey modules from the /usr/lib/gpgdir directory.
188    - Added check_commands() subroutine from psad.
