Zip is an open-source, command-line alternative to other zip-format
archives such as WinZip, etc. zip-3.0 is the latest release from
Info-Zip, http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/Zip.html.
[[ compiled using gcc-3.4.4-999 ]]
This will most likely be the final zip update for the cygwin-1.5
distribution; future development will continue with zip-3.0-10
for cygwin-1.7.
CHANGES (since 2.32-2)
========================
o Updated to latest upstream version
o Adds better large file support, including ZIP64 format.
o Unicode file names are NOT supported in this release,
and probably will not be supported by any zip package for
cygwin-1.5.
o Adds bzip2 compression format. However, the current version
of unzip is unable to extract these archives; unzip-bzip2 support
is in the forthcoming unzip-6.0 release, currently in beta.
Upstream changes:
========================
o Large files. Greater than 2GB total; individual files > 2GB,
and more than 64k files in a single archive.
o Multi-volume. Supported via "split" archives, but not "spanned"
archives. See /usr/share/doc/zip-3.0/README.
o Unicode. @@@ NOT SUPPORTED ON CYGWIN-1.5 @@@
o Better command line options. Long option names, and option
permuting (allows -x exclude and -i include options to appear
other than always last, as was the case in 2.32).
o Supports 32bit UIDs/GIDs. However, this requires unzip-6.0
(currently in beta) to restore.
o New modes. Difference mode supports incremental backups. File
sync mode supports synchonizing between an archive and on-disk
files. Copy mode allows copying individual contents between
different archives.
o Compression using bzip2. Slower, but often better than deflate.
Requires unzip-6.0 (currently in beta) to unpack.
o Better streaming and piping. Zip operates in command pipelines
using stdin/stdout, as well as FIFOs, better than before.
o Gobs of new progress information. Also log files.
o Updated archive fixing. Can also now fix split archives.
o Windows Archive bit support.
@@@ NOT SUPPORRTED IN UNIX BUILDS, LIKE CYGWIN @@@
(Use difference mode instead; it's better).
o File lists. Think 'make -n'
o Extended help. 'zip -h2' == practically a man page.
o Many bug fixes.

Indeed, looking at the 64bit version it seems the same cygport file has
been used for both architectures. But until that's fixed, the
setup.hint file at least ensures a consistent install.

Achim.

Isn't the real question why the numbering went backwards? It sounds
like there is a packaging error here and this should have been
zip-3.0-12 rather than zip-3.0-2.

I fixed this on cygwin.com by adding "prev" and "curr" entries.

The previous package in the x86 branch had been zip-3.0-11, but no
appropriate setup.hint is present in the package directory. Can this please
be corrected?

Achim.

The following package has been updated in the Cygwin distribution:
* zip-3.0-2
Zip is a compression and file packaging utility. It is compatible with
PKZIP 2.04g for DOS systems. There is a companion to zip called unzip
which handles decompression.
This release includes Fedora's patchset.
