megatools 1.10.3 - 2020-04-15
=============================

This is a bugfix release.

Fixes:
- Add support for new format of mega.nz links (by Alberto Garcia)


megatools 1.10.2 - 2018-07-31
=============================

This is a bugfix release. This release was sponsored by donations to fix
large file downloads and improve download robustness after recent mega.nz
API change. Thank you!

Fixes:
- Actually fix connection dropping when downloading big files

Improvements:
- Add DNS resolution cache sharing accross all cURL handles
- Increase receive buffer size to 256kB

megatools 1.10.1 - 2018-07-27
=============================

This is a bugfix release + one feature addition by del1a.

New features:
- Allow to interactively choose which files to download from a public folder via
  megadl --choose-files

Fixes:
- Connection dropping when downloading big files
- Compatibility with older libcurl releases
- Fix occasional crashes when starting transfer worker threads
- Fix clang compatibility

megatools 1.10.0 - 2018-07-22
=============================

This release contains new features and optimizaions.

New features/optimizations:
- Chunked upload using up to 16 concurrent connections. Remember, more is not
  always better.
- Improved upload stability. When mega drops or hangs the data connection,
  megatools will simply restart the upload of the chunk of data that got lost.
- 5x AES enryption/decryption speed increase for uploads and downloads. Now
  it's possible to max out a gigabit connection on a cheap Intel based VPS.
- Improved progress reporting wih a summary of the average speed at the end.
- You can use --debug http to see all HTTP requests and connections, for
  debugging connection isues.
- Error 509 is reported with explanation.
- Implemented automatic resume for interrupted downloads. Megatools now
  writes data to a temporary file and renames it to the target name, when the
  download is fully completed. This way you'll notice that download was
  interrupted by CTRL+C and megatools will not leave half finished work behind.
- Add contributed bash auto-completion file by albaldi #368
- Add support for authenticated downloads of exported files using megadl #298
  (So that your account download quota is used instead of public quota.)
- Add Upload section and CreatePreviews setting into rc file. Add --enable-previews
  option.
- Add support for megals --print0|-0

Fixes:
- Upload hangs at 100% #366 #360 #365
- Don't send tetrminal escape sequences, when redirecting stdout.
- Fix comments syntax in megarc man page #359
- Use glib's variants of PRIu64, fixes #328
- megadl doesn't use account session when downloading folder links #304
- Skip symlinked folders when uploading in megacopy #262
- Turn on TCP keepalive probes in CURL #271
- Fix socks proxy support in megareg (it was not enabled correctly) #287
- Fix OpenSSL 1.1 compatibility #263
- Fix compiling against libressl
- Fix b64_aes128_cbc_encrypt_str string length handling #242
- Minor docummentation updates/fixes

Credits:
- Thanks to ERap320, megatools is also available on Chocolatey (see gihub issue
  #347) (If you want to verify origin of the binaries, because they are not
  distributed in the officialy signed zip file)
- Thanks to christarazi, megatools supports downloading specific sub-nodes of
  a public folder. (#254)

Thanks also go to all other contributors for improving documentation, reporting
bugs and testing.

megatools 1.9.98 - 2016-11-03
=============================

Bugfix release with some UI imporvements.

New features:
- Support upload/download speed limit settings
- Support socks proxy
- Improved progress reporting
- Support for OpenSSL 1.1.x

Removals:
- Remove undocummented --abort-on-error option. Tools now always
  report errors through exit status.
- Remove libmega.so public library support and a lot of unused code
  that was planned to be used for 2.0
- Remove megamv (it was never implemented and confused users)
- Remove megafs (it was just an experiment and confused users)

Cleanups:
- Cleanup build system a bit
- Cleanup CLI option handling, improved --help output

Fixes:

- Support very long passwords in the password prompt (up to 1024 chars)

megatools 1.9.97 - 2016-02-02
=============================

Bugfix release.

Fixes:
- Mega started compressing HTTP responses to API calls. Megatools now
  uses libcurl to handle API requests, so HTTP compression is now 
  supproted.

megatools 1.9.96 - 2016-01-02
=============================

Bugfix release.

Fixes:
- Refer to mega.nz and use mega.nz links instead of deprecated mega.co.nz
- Fix various build issues

megatools 1.9.95 - 2015-04-15
=============================

Bugfix and optimization release.

Fixes:
- Improve compatibility wit older curl (whatever version is in centos 6.5)
- Fix regression in megadl: fails to download exported folders #90
- Remove megamv as it is not and will not be implemented in 1.9 branch
- Slow down progress reporting on windows to once per second #102

Improvements:
- Rename megasync to megacopy to avoid conflict with official mega sync client
- Optimize session loading - issue #100
- Optimize session loading - further optimization - issue #100
- There's no need to use dbus-launcher when running megatools outside running
  desktop to avoid a warning message.

megatools 1.9.94 - 2015-01-02
=============================

Bugfix and optimization release.

Fixes:
- Force use of IPv4 addresses
- Fix path sanitization so that trailing slashes are ignored
- Document config file oddities in megarc manpage
- Add info on how to build/install megatools on various distros

Improvements:
- Optimize path handling code so that filesystems with many files are 
  usable. Previously, megatools would hang for quite some time when
  updating it's path map.
- Use non-recursive makefile to build megatools

megatools 1.9.93 - 2014-10-24
=============================

Added OpenSSL exemption to the license.

Fixes:

- megadf now returns correct values
- fixed path sanitization in mega_session_stat
- raised safety limit os size of POST responses from 32 to 256 MiB
- show progress when downloading folder using megadl

- allow to disable file previews

megatools 1.9.92 - 2014-08-24
=============================

Created stable branch for bugfixes. This is the release from the stable 
branch.

This release contains mostly small bug fixes. Most important change is
that Megatools now recognizes server busy errors as reported by mega.nz
via HTTP status 500 Server Is Busy, and retries the communication. This
reduces command failures by a lot, and you'll not see 500 Server Is Busy 
errors anymore.

Another major news is update to the windows package. There are now two 
packages for 32bit and 64bit windows platform, and all dlls were updated to
their latest versions.

Other news:

- Added 64bit windows package
- Unmask Megatools to Mega.nz (user Megatools/VERSION User-Agent)
- Check for a2x if --enable-docs-build=yes
- Megadl now reports file download errors
- Add megadl --print-names option
- Fix megasync error (issue #45 on github)
- Fix megadl used with pipe (--path -) on windows (issue #38)
- Installation instructions for Mac
- Add info about Gentoo ebuild to the README file (issue #26)
- Fix Megatools thumbnails for PDF (issue #5)
- Do repeated API calls after 500 Server Is Busy and increase retry delay
- Fix issue to download a file with accent with megaget (issue #22)

megatools 1.9.91 - 2013-04-14
=============================

Please note, that megatools is using GNOME release versioning. That means
that in MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, odd MINOR number signifies development version
of the tools. PATCH version is increased on each public release.

By using odd MINOR versions of the software you are using an unstable
branch. That doesn't mean it will be crashing on you, but it may have 
certain quirks, and oddities, missing or incomplete features, etc.

Next stable release is going to be 2.0.0.

To the news:

- Added man pages for all tools
- Removed megastream in favor of mega{dl,get} --path -
- Megadf - fix unsigned overflow when server reports 0 total space
- Implemented --debug option
- Win32: Drop requirement for manual setup of GIO_EXTRA_MODULES
- Load certificates from the binaries folder on windows
- Enable CA validation for TLS connections
- Fix compilation on FreeBSD by adding --enable-warnings
- Add note that on FreeBSD GNU make must be used to build the tools
- Fix typedef redefinitions (error on older gcc's)
- Fix megals --names logic
- megaput/megaget/megadl/megasync: --no-progress support
- Fix mega_session_dl streaming mode segfault
- megamkdir/megarm: Check for required arguments
- Pretty print JSON in debug output

AUR package is available at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/megatools/

Ubunut PPA is availble at https://launchpad.net/~megous/+archive/ppa

If someone wants to take over packaging for Ubuntu or Debian, that would
be very appretiated, as my speciality is Arch Linux.


megatools 1.9.90 - 2013-04-11
=============================

Implemented much simpler and faster json parser than json-glib, which was
used before. Megatools now use sjson, which you can find at:

  https://github.com/megous/sjson

Json-glib dependency was thus dropped.

Initial work on getting rid of dependency on libcurl.

Initial work on the new libmega library with support for gobject-introspection
based bindings to various languages: JavaScript, Python, Ruby, LUA,...

Experimental implementation of Mega API in JavaScript (gjs), this should help
people develop GNOME GUI for Mega in the future.

New command line tools:

  megafs  - mount mega.nz filesystem usong FUSE (Linux only)
  megamv  - move and rename remote files and directories


megatools 1.2.2 - 2013-04-11
============================

Bugs fixed:

- Trash and Inbox paths are no longer mixed up (bug reported by Ovidiu)
- megadl segfault
- megaput --path /Root/nonexistent-file local-file (remote file would get 
  the name of the local file, instead of nonexistent-file)
- megals /Root/file-name would return nothing
- Segfault with password length over 15 chars
- Fix file size parsing to make it work with files over 2GB in size


megatools 1.2.1 - 2013-03-12
============================

Added support for OpenSUSE 12.1 and newer versions.

Build libmega statically for binary distribution to ease installation 
outside of /usr/local.


megatools 1.2.0 - 2013-03-12
============================

Megatools now support download of shared files and folders.

Megatools support creating thumbnails for image and video files uploaded 
to Mega. This is enabled only on Linux, as it requires ffmpegthumbnailer 
and convert (from ImageMagick package).

You can now manage your contacts list via:
  
  - mkdir /Contacts/some@email.com
  - rm /Contacts/some.other@email.com

Exported folders can be downloaded using megadl.

All tools gained a few more options to help with scripting needs.

If you don't provide password on command-line or in config file you'll 
be asked for it when the tool runs.

Megals tool gained many new options.

OpenSSL locks are now properly initialized.


megatools 1.1.1 - 2013-03-10
============================

Binary packages for linux support more Linux distributions. Supported
distros include (both 32bit and 64bit editions):

  - Ubuntu LTS 12.04.2 and later
  - Fedora 17 and later
  - Current Arch Linux
  - Suse (with a package for ubuntu)
  - ...and probably any recent distribution with all dependencies installed

Package structure was changed to allow easy installation to /usr/local.

To install, run:

  sudo tar -x -f megatools-1.1.1-i686.tar.gz -C / --no-overwrite-dir

Tools now use shared library, which you can use to develop your own Mega
tools. For example:

  export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig

  gcc -o sample sample.c -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib `pkg-config --cflags --libs libmega`

Sample source code sample.c can be found in /usr/local/share/doc/megatools/

To develop mega apps, you'll need to install development packages on
distros like Fedora or Ubuntu. For example on Fedora:

  yum install openssl-devel json-glib-devel libcurl-devel glib2-devel

Or on Ubuntu:

  apt-get install libssl-dev libjson-glib-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev gcc make pkg-config


megatools 1.1.0 - 2013-03-09
============================

Megareg tool is now implemented, and can be used to register new
accounts without the need for Mega website. Unless you login to
Mega, Mega will never be able to get your password key.

Tools don't show version banner anymore, unless asked for via 
--version option.

Megadl learned to handle SIGPIPE if server drops connection,
and megadl tries to write into a closed socket.


megatools 1.0.0 - 2013-03-08
============================

This is initial public release of megatools. Current features are:

- Local caching of remote session/filesystem information 
  for faster execution. Cache is encrypted with your password 
  key.
- Support for configuration file to put login information in.
  This is not wildly secure, but it's convenient.
- Initial set of tools to manipulate remote filesystem:

  megadf       Show your cloud storage space usage/quota
  megals       List all remote files
  megamkdir    Create remote directory
  megarm       Remove remote file or directory
  megaput      Upload individual files
  megaget      Download individual files
  megadl       Download file from a "public" Mega link
               (doesn't require login)
  megastream   Streaming download of a file
               (can be used to preview videos or music)
  megasync     Upload or download a directory tree

See TODO for features that are comming in the future releases.
