1.0.3 (7/27/2017):
------------------

- Fixed a major bug that caused invalid partition tables to be generated
  under some conditions.

1.0.2 (7/26/2017):
------------------

- On Linux, the p/-p/--print command now shows the disk's model name, as
  reported in /sys/block/sda/device/model (or equivalent filenames for other
  disks). This feature does not yet work on other platforms, on which the
  model name line is omitted from the output. This line is also not shown
  when accessing disk image files, even on Linux.

- GPT fdisk can now report both the physical and logical sector sizes of
  disks, but only on 2.6.32 and later Linux kernels. The verify feature now
  uses the larger of the set alignment and physical/logical block sizes for
  testing alignment, and setting alignment to something other than an exact
  multiple of the ratio of the physical to logical block size results in a
  warning.

- Addition of new verification checks, mostly (but not exclusively) related
  to the new j/-j/--move-main-table option.

- Added new option: 'j' on the experts' menu in gdisk;
  '-j/--move-main-table={sector}' in sgdisk. This option enables relocating
  the main partition table from sector 2 (the default location) to somewhere
  else on the disk. The main reason I know of to do this is if the disk is
  to be used with a system-on-chip (SoC) computer, some of which require the
  boot loader to be located at sector 2. If you pass this option the default
  value of 2, it has the effect of reducing the padding placed between the
  main partition table and the first usable sector value created by the
  Linux fdisk tool.

- Updated man pages with new recommendations for ESP and BIOS Boot Partition
  sizes.

- Added four type codes (AF06 through AF09) for Apple SoftRAID (Status,
  Scratch, Volume, and Cache).

- Added two type codes for the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE):
  0xe100 (7412F7D5-A156-4B13-81DC-867174929325) and 0xe101
  (D4E6E2CD-4469-46F3-B5CB-1BFF57AFC149).

- Added thirteen type codes for Android partitions (0xa000 through
  0xa00c).

- Added type code for QNX6 (aka QNX Power-Safe) filesystem: 0xb300, for
  CEF5A9AD-73BC-4601-89F3-CDEEEEE321A1.

- Removed stray debug message ("REALLY setting name!") from sgdisk,
  when setting new name via -c option.

1.0.1 (10/18/2015):
-------------------

- Created uninstall-fixparts and uninstall-gdisk scripts for OS X. As the
  names imply, these scripts remove the files installed by the fixparts and
  gdisk packages, respectively.

- Fixed bug that caused -N/--largest-new option to sgdisk to fail when
  fed a "0" option.

- Fixed bug that caused input glitches in EFI version of gdisk.

- Fixed bug that caused sgdisk to not return an appropriate error code
  when it encountered a write error when saving changes.

- Fixed bug that caused cgdisk's "Info" display to under-report the
  partition's size by one sector.

- OS X 10.11 includes new security features that prevent GPT fdisk from
  working unless these features are disabled. To do so, you must boot to a
  Recovery HD system, open a Terminal, type "csrutil disable", and reboot
  into the normal system. You can re-enable the security features by
  repeating the process, but specify "enable" rather than "disable". I've
  added a message pointing users to a Web page explaining how to disable
  this feature when gdisk detects that it can't write to the disk under OS
  X. If you know of a way around this (including code changes to gdisk),
  please contact me.

- I've updated the OS X installation location from the Unix-standard
  /usr/sbin (and related locations for documentation) to /usr/local/bin
  (and related locations for documentation). This is Just Plain Crazy from
  a Unix point of view, but Apple has to be Apple and do things just a
  little bit differently.

- I've updated my OS X environment to OS X 10.11 and LLVM 7.0.0. This has
  also meant installing fresh versions of popt and ncurses from MacPorts,
  which may require upgrading popt to get sgdisk working on some systems.
  (gdisk, cgdisk, and fixparts should continue to work normally on all
  systems.) The OS X binaries are now "fat" (32- and 64-bit) versions,
  which should have no noticeable effect unless you have a Mac with broken
  32-bit support, in which case the binaries will now work.

- Changed the default name of 0xab00 partitions from "Apple boot" to
  "Recovery HD", since the latter is the name that Apple gives these
  partitions. Also, I discovered through painful experience that OS X
  flakes out and won't boot if the name is something other than "Recovery
  HD", so it really has to have the right name!

- Changed the OpenBSD type codes (0xa600 and 0xa601): 0xa600 is now
  824CC7A0-36A8-11E3-890A-952519AD3F61 (OpenBSD disklabel) and 0xa601 is
  now gone. Previously, 0xa600 was 516E7CB4-6ECF-11D6-8FF8-00022D09712B, a
  duplicate of the FreeBSD disklabel, and 0xa601 was
  824CC7A0-36A8-11E3-890A-952519AD3F61. OpenBSD is now officially
  supporting 824CC7A0-36A8-11E3-890A-952519AD3F61 as a disklabel type,
  though. It's unclear what, if anything, OpenBSD will use for
  non-disklabel type codes at the moment.

- Added GUID 0311FC50-01CA-4725-AD77-9ADBB20ACE98 (0xbc00) for
  Acronis Secure Zone backup partitions.

- Fixed bug that caused random crashes on ppc64el systems (and perhaps
  others).

- Added GUID C91818F9-8025-47AF-89D2-F030D7000C2C (0x3900) for Plan 9.

- Added GUID 69DAD710-2CE4-4E3C-B16C-21A1D49ABED3 (0x8307) for 32-bit ARM
  Linux root (/) partition, as per the Freedesktop.org Discoverable
  Partition Spec
  (http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/DiscoverablePartitionsSpec/).

- Edited man pages to clarify that default alignment is to 1MiB boundaries;
  this translates to 2048 sectors on disks with 512-byte sectors, but it
  will be something else on disks with other sector sizes.

- Changed behavior of -z/--zap and -Z/--zap-all options to sgdisk so that
  if a subsequent command causes changes, they'll be written to disk.
  Previously, doing something like "sgdisk --zap-all --clear /dev/sdd"
  would wipe the disk but not create a partition table; to create a blank
  table you'd need to do "sgdisk --zap-all --clear --mbrtogpt /dev/sdd",
  which is a bit odd and counter-intuitive, to the point of arguably being
  a bug.

1.0.0 (3/16/2015):
------------------

- I'm now building a binary package of gdisk_x64.efi, using the UEFI GPT
  fdisk package.

- Added partition type for OpenBSD data
  (824CC7A0-36A8-11E3-890A-952519AD3F61/0xa601). Also mapped 0xa600 to the
  FreeBSD disklabel type code (516E7CB4-6ECF-11D6-8FF8-00022D09712B). I'm
  not sure that's 100% correct, but since I can't find references to an
  OpenBSD disklabel GPT type code, it seems the best choice at the moment.

- Added partition type for Windows Storage Spaces
  (E75CAF8F-F680-4CEE-AFA3-B001E56EFC2D/0x4202)

- Added -O/--print-mbr option to sgdisk, enabling easier display of MBR
  data structures without invoking gdisk.

- Updated warning message: "EBR describes a logical partition" now reads
  "EBR points to an EBR," which is more technically correct.

- Altered warning displayed when run from Windows on non-GPT disk, because
  Windows on UEFI-based systems is becoming more common.

- Fixed spurious "1" return value in gdisk.

- Small code changes to support compilation as EFI application with the
  UEFI GPT fdisk library
  (http://sourceforge.net/projects/uefigptfdisk/?source=directory)

- Added new partition type codes for Ceph
  (https://github.com/ceph/ceph/blob/9bcc42a3e6b08521694b5c0228b2c6ed7b3d312e/src/ceph-disk#L76-L81):
  4FBD7E29-9D25-41B8-AFD0-062C0CEFF05D/0xf800 (Ceph OSD),
  4FBD7E29-9D25-41B8-AFD0-5EC00CEFF05D/0xf801 (Ceph dm-crypt OSD),
  45B0969E-9B03-4F30-B4C6-B4B80CEFF106/0xf802 (Ceph journal),
  45B0969E-9B03-4F30-B4C6-5EC00CEFF106/0xf803 (Ceph dm-crypt journal),
  89C57F98-2FE5-4DC0-89C1-F3AD0CEFF2BE/0xf804 (Ceph disk in creation), and
  89C57F98-2FE5-4DC0-89C1-5EC00CEFF2BE/0xf805 (Ceph dm-crypt disk in
  creation)

- Added new partition type codes from
  http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/DiscoverablePartitionsSpec/:
  44479540-F297-41B2-9AF7-D131D5F0458A/0x8303 (Linux / on x86),
  4F68BCE3-E8CD-4DB1-96E7-FBCAF984B709/0x8304 (Linux / on x86-64),
  B921B045-1DF0-41C3-AF44-4C6F280D3FAE/0x8305 (Linux / on 64-bit ARM),
  3B8F8425-20E0-4F3B-907F-1A25A76F98E8/0x8306 (Linux /srv).
