Dear all, I am pleased to announce a new release of S3QL, version 3.8.1.
>From the changelog:
2022-01-10, S3QL 3.8.1
* Update fsck.s3ql to remove empty direcrtories from local backend's storage
directory. As blocks are added subdirectories are created
on demand so there are not too many blocks in each directory, but as blocks
are removed from storage empty directories are not automatically removed.
The number of empty directories can become quite large over
time, slowing down mount.s3ql a little and fsck.s3ql considerably.
* Fix for fsck.s3ql removing .tmp files in cache directory.
* Fix bug that would cause incorrect size to be recorded for a block
if the file had zero-bytes added to the end by using truncate followed
by close. (The recorded size does not count the zero bytes.) Both rsync's
-S (sparse) option and VirtualBox do this for example. No data corruption,
but contrib/fixup_block_sizes.py should be run to fix this.
* contrib/fix_block_sizes.py updated to check all block sizes, not just
ones with size multiple of 512, so it detects blocks affected by the above
bug.
