There are also some new features: + +- Support for multiple source directories. + +- The prune subcommand has been tweaked to use the same algorithm as + the run subcommand to decide which snapshot should be pruned. The + prune subcommand also gained the new --disk-space option. + +- When dss runs in daemon mode, it no longer sets the umask to zero. + +- The logo has been replaced by a slightly smaller one in svg format. + +------------------ +1.0.0 (2017-11-19) +------------------ +After almost ten years of development, dss has finally reached version +1.0.0. Many new features have been implemented for this release. The +list below contains the user-visible changes since the previous +0.1.7 release. For the complete changelog consult the git log. + +The biggest user-visible change is that the former modes of operation +have been replaced by subcommands. For example, the former -R option +to start dss in "run" mode corresponds to the "run" subcommand of +version 1.0.0. Each subcommand has its own set of options. Global +options and options for subcommands are split with the usual "--" +separator. For example, to specify the global --loglevel option and +the run-specific --daemon option, use dss --loglevel 2 -- run --daemon. + +Although the new version has different syntax rules, the on-disk +snapshot format remains the same. No conversion is required to continue +existing snapshot directories created with older dss versions. + +The 0.1.x series will still be maintained for a while as the "maint" +branch of the git repository, but this branch will only receive +bug fixes. - The gengetopt option parser has been replaced by the [lopsub](http://people.tuebingen.mpg.de/maan/lopsub) library.
