rarfile v3.3
Fixes:
Add the .sfx test files to MANIFEST.in for inclusion in pypi tarball.
Add all files in git to tarball.
rarfile v3.2
New features:
Support unar as decompression backend. It has much better support for RAR features than bsdtar.
Support SFX archives - archive header is searched in first 2MB of the file.
Add HACK_TMP_DIR option, to force temp files into specific directory.
Fixes:
Always use "/" for path separator in command-line, gives better results on Windows.
Cleanups:
Drop module-level options from docs, they create confusion.
Drop support for Python 2 and 3.5 and earlier. Python 2 is dead and requiring Python 3.6 gives blake2s, stdlib that supports pathlib, and ordered dict without compat hacks.
Replace PyCrypto with PyCryptodome in tests.
Use Github Actions for CI.
Version 3.1:
This will be last version with support for Python 2.x
New feature:
Accept pathlib objects as filenames.
Accept bytes filenames in Python 3
Fixes:
Use bug-compatible SHA1 for longer passwords (> 28 chars) in RAR3 encrypted headers.
Return true/false from _check_unrar_tool
Include all test files in archive
Include volume number in NeedFirstVolume exception if available (rar5).
Cleanups:
Convert tests to pytest.
