Line 
1gpgdir-1.9.1 (06/07/2008):
2    - Updated to Class::MethodMaker 2.11 from CPAN.  This helps with systems
3      running perl-5.10.0 and greater (such as Fedora 9).
4    - Updated to always set the LC_ALL environmental variable to the "C"
5      locale.  This can be set to other locales with a new argument --locale,
6      or the default locale can be used by using --no-locale argument.
7
8gpgdir-1.9 (05/31/2008):
9    - Changed --Obfuscate-filenames format to not include the gpgdir PID.
10      This allows directories to be encrypted/decrypted under -O multiple
11      times without creating new filenames (which would pollute encrypted
12      directories under rsync to other systems).  The new -O encrypted
13      filename format is just "gpgdir_<num>.gpg".
14    - Added PID locking against directories so that multiple gpgdir processes
15      cannot operate against the same top-level directory simultaneously.
16      This is useful for users that typically operate with multiple shells
17      and might launch gpgdir from any of them.
18
19gpgdir-1.8 (04/04/2008):
20    - Updated the test suite to validate the gpgdir --Obfuscate-filenames
21      mode to ensure that files are encrypted as "gpgdir_<pid>_<num>.gpg".
22    - Minor bug fix to remove the .gpgdir_map_file in --Obfuscate-filenames
23      mode after a successful decryption cycle.
24    - Updated to version 0.36 of CPAN GnuPG::Interface module.
25
26gpgdir-1.7 (02/18/2008):
27    - Bugfix to ensure that encrypted directories can actually be decrypted.
28      This bug was reported by Per Ronny Westin.
29    - Updated to use the ".asc" extension for encrypted files in --Plain-ascii
30      mode.
31    - Added gpgdir test suite.  All future gpgdir releases (and including this
32      1.7 release) require that all gpgdir tests pass on the systems where
33      gpgdir is developed.
34
35gpgdir-1.6 (02/17/2008):
36    - Bugfix to not include previously encrypted files (i.e. those with a .gpg
37      extension) in the encryption/decryption file list.  This bug was
38      introduced in gpgdir-1.5 when a change was made to ignore ascii-armored
39      files.
40    - Added added LC_ALL=C locale setting for the install.pl script (this
41      should help to ensure gpgdir is properly installed on most systems). Two
42      new command line arguments --LC_ALL and --no-LC_ALL also allow the
43      locale setting to be changed or not used at all.
44    - Added --Exclude-mod-regex option to the install.pl script so that it is
45      possible to force the exclusion of perl modules that gpgdir would
46      normally install. This is useful for ensuring that gpgdir references
47      perl modules that are already installed in the system perl library tree
48      instead of using those that are installed in /usr/lib/gpgdir.
49    - Updated to display command line usage warnings without automatically
50      displaying the entire usage() page (which is quite long).
51
52gpgdir-1.5 (08/31/2007):
53    - Added the --Symmetric option so that files can be encrypted/decrypted
54      via a symmetric encryption algorithm (GnuPG commonly uses CAST5 for
55      this).
56    - Added the --Plain-ascii option so that GnuPG is invoked with the -a
57      option so that encrypted files are ascii armored instead of encrypted in
58      binary form.
59    - Bugfix to ensure not to delete zero-size files if a bad password is
60      given (gpgdir now just throws a warning and exits in this case).
61    - Minor code enhancements to provide a consistent hash_init() invocation
62      with the same options hash.
63    - Updated to exclude .asc files from the encryption/decryption process.
64
65gpgdir-1.4 (07/20/2007):
66    - (Anthony Chivetta) Submitted patch to implement the
67      --overwrite-encrypted command line argument to allow previously
68      encrypted files to be overwritten. This is useful for updating an
69      encrypted directory with new versions of the previously encrypted files.
70      Also added the --overwrite-decrypted command line argument to perform
71      the same function for previously decrypted files.
72    - (Anthony Chivetta) Submitted patch to fix a bug where a filename of
73      "0.gpg" could not be decrypted because "0" does not evaluate to a true
74      value.
75
76gpgdir-1.3 (06/09/2007):
77    - Added --Obfuscate mode so that the files within a directory can be
78      altered into unrecognizable names (which are stored within the file
79      .gpgdir_map_file within each sub-directory, and this file is itself
80      encrypted).  The obfuscated file names are reversed when a directory
81      is decrypted.
82    - Added the --Agent-info command line argument so that the value of the
83      GPG_AGENT_INFO environment variable can be specified on the gpgdir
84      command line.
85
86gpgdir-1.2 (05/28/2007):
87    - Added support for installing gpgdir on Windows under Cygwin (via the
88      install.pl script). Installing gpgdir on FreeBSD systems also works.
89    - Added support for installing gpgdir within a user home directory without
90      the need for root access (this requires installing gpgdir with the
91      install.pl script).
92    - Added --agent to have gpgdir acquire gpg key password from a running
93      gpg-agent instance.
94    - Added --no-password so gpgdir can use a gpg key with no associated
95      password (this is not common).  The user is not prompted for a password
96      in this case.
97
98gpgdir-1.1 (05/21/2007):
99    - Added the ability to securely delete the original versions of files with
100      the 'wipe' program (after they have been successfully encrypted).  Also
101      added --wipe-path to specify a path to the wipe binary (the default is
102      /usr/bin/wipe), --wipe-interactive to force the wipe program to prompt
103      the user before a file is deleted, and --wipe-cmdline to allow the user
104      to build a set of command line arguments that are passed to the wipe
105      program.
106    - Added --Force to have gpgdir skip over the error condition where a file
107      cannot be deleted (because of a permissions issue for example).
108    - Added --Trial-run to allow the user to see what actions gpgdir would
109      take to encrypt or decrypt files, but no files are actually modified.
110    - Added --Interactive to have gpgdir prompt the user before every file is
111      encrypted, decrypted.
112    - Added the gpgdir.SlackBuild script (contributed by pyllyukko originally
113      for the psad project) for building gpgdir on Slackware systems.
114
115gpgdir-1.0.3 (09/17/2006):
116    - Minor bugfix to correct 1.0.1 version number (which should have been set
117      to 1.0.2) in the gpgdir RPM spec file.
118
119gpgdir-1.0.2 (09/17/2006):
120    - Minor bugfix to correct 1.0 version number (which should have been set
121      to 1.0.1).  The result is the 1.0.2 release.
122
123gpgdir-1.0.1 (09/16/2006):
124    - Added --quiet option to have gpgdir print as little as possible to the
125      screen when encrypting or decrypting a directory.
126    - Added x86_64 RPM (original patch from Mate Wierdl adapted for gpgdir).
127
128gpgdir-1.0 (09/13/2006):
129    - Added --Key-id command line argument so that use_key can be overridden
130      from the command line
131    - Made the argument to use_key not have to strictly be a keyID since GnuPG
132      allows a unique string match on keys in the key ring
133    - Added --Default-key to allow the user to have gpgdir use the default
134      key that is defined by GnuPG within the ~/.gnupg/options file.
135    - Updated the .gpgdirrc file to include the line "default_key" to allow
136      the user to have gpgdir prefer to use the GnuPG default key.
137    - Added the ChangeLog.svn file to show exactly which files have been
138      changed from release to release, and what the corresponding Subversion
139      log messages are.
140    - Minor documentation updates.
141
142gpgdir-0.9.9 (09/07/2006):
143    - Added RPM .spec file to build gpgdir as an RPM.
144    - Added the --Skip-mod-install command line argument to install.pl to
145      allow all perl module installs to be skipped.
146    - Added the --force-mod-regex command line argument to install.pl to allow
147      a regex match on perl module names to force matching modules to be
148      installed.
149    - Updated to TermReadKey-2.30 from 2.21.
150
151gpgdir-0.9.8 (07/03/2006):
152    - Updated to use GnuPG::Interface instead of GnuPG module.  This should
153      fix the incompatibility issues seen between the GnuPG module and some
154      GnuPG installations.
155    - Added perl module installation code from fwknop (see
156      http://www.cipherdyne.org/fwknop/).  This allows gpgdir to
157      preferentially use any perl modules that are already be installed on the
158      system.
159
160gpgdir-0.9.4 (10/12/2005):
161    - Updated test mode to encrypt and decrypt a testing file within the
162      directory to be encrypted or decrypted.  This file is located at
163      <dir>/gpgdir_test, and is removed after the test is completed.
164    - Bugfix for "protocol error: expected SHM_GET_XXX got GOOD_PASSPHRASE"
165      error in GnuPG module.
166
167gpgdir-0.9.3 (02/20/2005):
168    - Added --Include and --Include-from options to allow inclusion
169      regular expressions to be specified.
170    - Bugfix for not decrypting filesnames that contain spaces.
171
172gpgdir-0.9.2 (01/05/2005):
173    - Added preservation of file mtime and atime values (may be disabled
174      with the --no-preserve-times option).
175    - Added testing encryption and decryption of dummy file (may be
176      disabled with --skip-test) by default for both encrypt and decrypt
177      modes.
178    - Added --test-mode to run encrypt -> decrypt test and exit.
179    - Removed unnecessary compression options.
180    - Updated get_homedir() to reference HOME environmental variable if
181      the /etc/passwd file does not exist (OS X being a good example).
182    - Added --verbose mode.
183    - Updated output to generate errors on a per-file basis instead of
184      dumping them at the end of an encrypt/decrypt operation.
185
186gpgdir-0.9.1 (11/11/2004):
187    - Updated GnuPG.pm perl module to handle return code of PLAINTEXT
188      which seems to be returned by GunPG now (as of version 1.2.6)
189      instead of DECRYPTION_OKAY upon a successful decryption.
190
191gpgdir-0.9 (09/12/2004):
192    - Added --gnupg-dir option to allow a user to specify a different
193      user's .gnupg directory for encryption keys.
194    - Switched to "[+]" (and related) message prefixes.
195
196gpgdir-0.8 (05/29/2004):
197    - Added --Exclude and --Exclude-from options to allow files to be
198      excluded based on regex matches.
199    - Reworked error messages so they contain the filename associated
200      with each error.
201
202gpgdir-0.4 (04/23/2004):
203    - Added --pw-file option so that a decryption password can be
204      read out of a file.
205    - Better directory validation (filesystem -e and -d checks).
206    - Added INSTALL file.
207    - Updated man page and README file.
208
209gpgdir-0.3 (09/27/2003):
210    - Bundled perl modules GnuPG and TermReadKey with gpgdir.
211    - Modified install.pl and gpgdir to install and use GnuPG and
212      TermReadKey modules from the /usr/lib/gpgdir directory.
213    - Added check_commands() subroutine from psad.
