HISTORY of the 7-Zip
--------------------
21.07 2021-12-26
-------------------------
- 7-Zip now can extract VHDX disk images (Microsoft Hyper-V Virtual Hard Disk v2 format).
- New switches: -spm and -im!{file_path} to exclude directories from processing
for specified paths that don't contain path separator character at the end of path.
- In the "Add to Archive" window, now it is allowed to use -m prefix for "Parameters"
field as in command line: -mparam.
- The sorting order of files in archives was slightly changed to be more consistent
for cases where the name of some directory is the same as the prefix part of the name
of another directory or file.
- TAR archives created by 7-Zip now are more consistent with archives created by GNU TAR program.
21.06 2021-11-24
-------------------------
- The window "Add to Archive" now allows to set a limit on memory usage (RAM)
that will be used for compressing.
- New switch -mmemuse={N}g / -mmemuse=p{N} to set a limit on memory usage (RAM)
for compressing and decompressing.
- Bug in versions 21.00-21.05 was fixed:
7-Zip didn't set attributes of directories during archive extracting.
- Some bugs were fixed.
21.04 beta 2021-11-02
-------------------------
- 7-Zip now reduces the number of working CPU threads for compression,
if RAM size is not enough for compression with big LZMA2 dictionary.
- 7-Zip now can create and check "file.sha256" text files that contain the list
of file names and SHA-256 checksums in format compatible with sha256sum program.
7-Zip can work with such checksum files as with archives,
but these files don't contain real file data.
The context menu commands to create and test "sha256" files:
7-Zip / CRC SHA / SHA-256 -> file.sha256
7-Zip / CRC SHA / Test Archive : Checksum
The commands for command line version:
7z a -thash file.sha256 *.txt
7z t -thash file.sha256
7z t -thash -shd. file.sha256
New -shd{dir_path} switch to set the directory that is used to check files
referenced by "file.sha256" file for "Test" operation.
If -shd{dir_path} is not specified, 7-Zip uses the directory where "file.sha256" is stored.
- New -xtd switch to exclude directory metadata records from processing.
21.03 beta 2021-07-20
