Add the ability to set a new random UUID on file systems that provide
the appropriate tools to perform this action.
Update the help manual to include this new functionality. Also add
reference links to "setting a partition label" and "changing a
partition UUID" in the "copying and pasting a partition" section.
This patch does not include setting the UUID on an NTFS file system.
Bug #667278 - Add support for setting UUID
Bug #608308 - fix documentation - Copying and Pasting a Partition
Restore copyright entries by original author to those of his last
known repository commit titled "released gparted-0.3.4 on
LarryT's request." on Feb 25, 2007.
Add my own copyright entries for files in which I changed source
code. Files in which I only made spelling changes do not have my
copyright entry added.
* added support for reading volumelabels. Atm we only read ext2/3, but
the infrastructure for adding the other filesystems is in place.
It's simply a matter of finding the right commands and parsing the
output. (see #338528 for more info)
* added detailed progressfeedback. It still needs some polishing, but
is already far better then the old situation. And what's more, it's
finally threadsafe :p
* Added support for reiser4 (only creation atm, since the other functionality appears to be non-free software :/ )
Also, libparted isn't able to detect reiser4 yet, a patch to fix this is underway, but i should probably add reiser4 detection to gparted as well.
