Use the --rebuild flag to get the old behavior (which + was to re-build the entire WIM when a new image is appended). + + A new command `imagex optimize' is now available to manually re-build a + WIM that has wasted space due to repeated appends. + + Progress information has been improved, and now arbitrary callback + functions can be used to show the progress of a WIM operation. + + A possible bug with changing the bootable image of a WIM was fixed. + + Some advisory locking is now done to prevent two processes from + modifying a WIM at the same time (but only in some cases). For example, + you cannot mount two images from a WIM read-write at the same time. + + Some functions have been reorganized: + * wimlib_mount() renamed to wimlib_mount_image(). + * wimlib_unmount() renamed to wimlib_unmount_image(). + * wimlib_overwrite_xml_and_header() removed as + wimlib_overwrite() suffices now. + * wimlib_apply_image_to_ntfs_volume() removed as + wimlib_extract_image() suffices now. + * wimlib_add_image_from_ntfs_volume() removed as + * wimlib_add_image() suffices now. + + Previously, the soname of libwim.so has been 0.0.0, despite many + interface changes. The soname is now updated to 1.0.0 and will now be + updated each release. + +Version 1.1.0: + Resources will now be compressed using multiple threads by default. + (This applies to `imagex capture', `imagex append', and `imagex + export'). + + Some performance improvements in mounted WIMs. + + More progress information is shown when capturing a WIM. + +Version 1.0.4: + Lots of minor fixes, code cleanups, and some documentation updates. + Nothing in particular is really noteworthy. + Version 1.0.3: LZX and XPRESS compression improvements.
