2003-02-05 Kai Gro�ohann <kai.grossjohann@uni-duisburg.de>

	Version 2.0.29 released.

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-send-region): Protect against
	tramp-chunksize being nil.

2003-02-04  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-handle-directory-file-name): Handle the case
	PATH is "".
	(tramp-completion-handle-file-name-all-completions): Define
	`tramp-current-user' locally.  See `tramp-parse-passwd'.
	(tramp-parse-passwd): For su-alike methods it would be desirable
	to return "root@localhost" as default.  Unfortunately, we have no
	information whether any user name has been typed already.  So we
	(mis-)use tramp-current-user as indication, assuming it is set in
	`tramp-completion-handle-file-name-all-completions'.
	(tramp-send-region): Handle the case `tramp-chunksize' is equal
	0.  I did it accidently.  Infinite loop ...

	* net/tramp-ftp.el (top-level): eval-after-load "ange-ftp"
	'(tramp-disable-ange-ftp).  Suggested by Kai.
	(tramp-ftp-file-name-handler): `tramp-disable-ange-ftp' not needed
	any longer.

	* net/tramp-smb.el (tramp-smb-file-name-handler-alist): Apply
	`tramp-handle-directory-file-name' in order to profit from Kai's
	yesterday changes.

2003-02-03  Kai Gro�ohann  <kai.grossjohann@uni-duisburg.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-chunksize): Set default to 500 as workaround
	for some ssh connections.
	(tramp-handle-directory-file-name): New implementation.  Not sure
	if it works.

2003-01-28  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-get-device): `tramp-make-tramp-file-name'
	must not be called with NIL path.  It fails in case of
	multi-method.

2003-01-27  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-file-name-for-operation): Apply
	`expand-file-name' for relative file names only.  Otherwise there
	might be problems if the default directory is another Tramp
	directory as the directory the file is based on.
	(tramp-find-foreign-file-name-handler): Check whether FILENAME is
	a Tramp file name.  It isn't if it comes from an expanded file
	name (like "/xx:yy//zz").

2003-01-25  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-devices): New variable.  Keeps virtual
	device numbers.  Devices must distinguish physical file systems.
	The device numbers provided by "lstat" aren't unique, because we
	operate on different hosts.  So we use virtual device numbers,
	generated by `tramp-get-device'.  Both Ange-FTP and EFS use device
	number -1.  In order to be different, we use device number (-1 x),
	whereby "x" is unique for a given (multi-method method user host).
	Suggested by Kai.
	(tramp-perl-file-attributes): Always return device number -1.
	There will be a virtual device number set in
	`tramp-handle-file-attributes', which replaces this one.
	(tramp-handle-file-attributes): Set virtual device number.
	(tramp-get-device): New function.  Returns the virtual device
	number.  If it doesn't exist, generate a new one.
	(tramp-handle-file-regular-p): Use Emacs file name primitives
	instead of calling tramp-handle-* equivalents directly.  Needed
	for tramp-smb.

	* net/tramp-smb.el (tramp-smb-devices, tramp-smb-get-device): Removed.
	Functionality moved to tramp.el.
	(tramp-smb-handle-file-attributes): Apply
	`tramp-get-device'. ATIME and CTIME are (0 0) now (= "don't
	know"), which is more honest.
	(tramp-smb-handle-make-directory): Use Emacs file name primitives
	instead of calling tramp-smb-handle-* equivalents directly.
	(tramp-smb-read-file-entry): Return size as a number but a string.

2003-01-24  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-completion-function-alist-ssh): Add parsing
	of "/etc/ssh_config" and "~/.ssh/config".  Suggested by Kai.
	(tramp-completion-function-alist, tramp-set-completion-function):
	Doc string update.
	(tramp-parse-sconfig, tramp-parse-sconfig-group): New functions.
	Provide parsing of "~/.ssh/config" style files.

2003-01-21  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-completion-handle-expand-file-name): Apply
	`tramp-drop-volume-letter'.  Otherwise, there are problems on W32
	systems.

2003-01-21  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp-smb.el (tramp-smb-get-device, tramp-smb-get-inode): New
	functions.  Device number and inode number don't exist for SMB
	files.  Therefore we must generate virtual ones.
	(tramp-smb-devices, tramp-smb-inodes): New variables.  Keep
	generated virtual device numbers and inodes numbers for SMB files.
	(tramp-smb-handle-file-attributes): Apply them.

2003-01-14  Kai Gro�ohann  <kai.grossjohann@uni-duisburg.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-md5-function): Require md5 before checking
	function md5.  If using md5-encode, put wrapper around it that
	converts vector of bytes to ascii text.

2003-01-13  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-completion-mode): Perform check (integerp
	last-input-event) before (event-modifiers last-input-event) -
	there might be problems if `last-input-event' is a mouse event.

2003-01-12  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp.el (tramp-parse-rhosts, tramp-parse-shosts)
	(tramp-parse-hosts, tramp-parse-passwd, tramp-parse-netrc): Use
	`file-readable-p' instead of `file-exists-p'.  Otherwise these
	functions might block.  Reported by <kin@neoscale.com>.

2003-01-02  Michael Albinus  <Michael.Albinus@alcatel.de>

	* net/tramp-ftp.el (top-level): Defaults for
	`tramp-default-method-alist' must be a list.

	* net/tramp-smb.el (top-level): Defaults for
	`tramp-default-method-alist' must be a list.

2003-01-02  Kai Gro�ohann  <kai.grossjohann@uni-duisburg.de>

	* net/tramp.el (top-level): Avoid byte-compiler warnings of unused
	variables if the byte-compiler supports this.  This is for the
	with-parsed-tramp-file-name macro which is wont to produce such
	stuff.
