Hash: SHA1

A new release of diffstat, 1.48-1, is available for those testing cygwin
1.7, leaving 1.47-1 as the previous version.

NEWS:
=====
This is a new upstream release.  It also includes a patch to recognize .xz
files in addition to .lzma files (which will probably be incorporated in
an upstream 1.49 sometime soon).  From the CHANGES file, the upstream
changes since 1.47 are:

11-Aug-2009
	diffstat 1.48

	add decompression tests for lzma and pack file types.

	check for zcat and uncompress in preference to "compress -dc".

	modify to check the first few bytes of standard input, and use a
	corresponding decompression utility if the stream appears to be
	compressed.  This requires making a temporary copy of the data
	(Debian #491575).

	add -N option, to truncate filenames.

	use getc_unlocked() rather than fgetc_unlocked()

	modify to recognize Perforce-style diffs (patch by Ed Schouten).

	update configure macros to improve compiler warning checks, use
	$PATH_SEPARATOR rather than $PATH_SEP (for consistency with some
	autoconf versions),

	fix typo in configure --with-install-prefix option (report by
	Dagobert Michelsen).

	update config.guess, config.sub

See also /usr/share/doc/diffstat/.

DESCRIPTION:
============
diffstat reads the output of diff and displays a histogram of the
insertions, deletions, and modifications per-file. It is useful for
reviewing large, complex patch files.

UPDATE:
=======
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the
http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your system.
Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'diffstat' from
the 'Devel' category.

DOWNLOAD:
=========
Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't
allowed due to bandwidth limitations.  This means that you will need to
find a mirror which has this update, please choose the one nearest to you:
http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html

QUESTIONS:
==========
If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.
