* Noteworthy changes in release 8.10 (2011-02-04) [stable]

** Bug fixes

du would abort with a failed assertion when two conditions are met: part of the hierarchy being traversed is moved to a higher level in the directory tree, and there is at least one more command line directory argument following the one containing the moved sub-tree. [bug introduced in coreutils-5.1.0]

join --header now skips the ordering check for the first line even if the other file is empty. [bug introduced in coreutils-8.5]

rm -f no longer fails for EINVAL or EILSEQ on file systems that reject file names invalid for that file system.

uniq -f NUM no longer tries to process fields after end of line. [bug introduced in coreutils-7.0]

** New features

cp now copies sparse files efficiently on file systems with FIEMAP support (ext4, btrfs, xfs, ocfs2). Before, it had to read 220 bytes when copying a 1MiB sparse file. Now, it copies bytes only for the non-sparse sections of a file. Similarly, to induce a hole in the output file, it had to detect a long sequence of zero bytes. Now, it knows precisely where each hole in an input file is, and can reproduce them efficiently in the output file. mv also benefits when it resorts to copying, e.g., between file systems.

join now supports -o 'auto' which will automatically infer the output format from the first line in each file, to ensure the same number of fields are output for each line.

** Changes in behavior

join no longer reports disorder when one of the files is empty. This allows one to use join as a field extractor like: join -a1 -o 1.3,1.1 - /dev/null
