reason to run old upstream code.
Changes in version 1.15:
The new option "-a, --min-read-rate" has been added.
The new option "-I, --verify-input-size" has been added.
The new option "-x, --extend-outfile" has been added.
Ddrescue now verifies that infile, outfile and logfile are all
different.
Non-tried blocks are now read aligned to cluster-size sectors.
The "split or skip" algorithm of the split pass has been improved.
A spurious warning about "-D" being ignored in fill mode has been
removed.
Ddrescuelog, a tool for manipulation, display, conversion, comparison
and testing of ddrescue logfiles, has been added.
Based on PR 39202 by Edgar Fuss, some fixes and improvement by me.
GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one file or block
device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying hard to rescue data in case
of read errors.
