GParted already has basic support only to recognize Btrfs volumes; if
configured, use our newer methods to handle them.
Also, put in place interface controls for all supported generic actions.
Make align to MiB the default setting instead of align to cylinder.
Migrate logic for alignment to cylinder into its own method
snap_to_cylinder, and place common logic in snap_to_alignment.
Add alignment checks for situations where space is needed for Master
Boot Record or Extended Boot Record.
Adjust ranges on spin buttons according to required boot record space.
Copy fix for off by one sector (#596552) from
Dialog_Partition_New::Get_New_Partition to
Dialog_Base_Partition::Get_New_Partition
Enhance resize / move logic for checking locations of nearby logical
partitions to not depend on the partition ordering.
Note: This commit does not include limiting graphic movement according
to required boot record space.
According to parted documentation, only "msdos" and "dvh" disk
types (or partition table types) support extended partitions.
All other disk types support primary partitions only.
The ability to paste into an existing partition was disabled in
v0.4.0. This ability has been re-enabled along with a warning
dialog that indicates the data in the existing partition will be
lost if the copy and paste operation is applied.
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.
When used with parted-2.0, GParted would display a warning
message indicating "kernel unable to re-read partition table" on
every device scan for each device with at least one partition
mounted. Device scans occur when GParted starts up, immediately
after a series of actions are applied, and upon manually invoked
device refreshes. This, I believe, is excessive notification to
the user and would be annoying.
Improve the feedback to the user when creating or pasting a
partition on a device with no partition table found.
Prior to this enhancement if a user tried to create or paste a
partition onto a device with no partition table found, GParted
would present the user with a Create Partition Table dialog.
When creating a new partition this could cause confusion for
users who were trying to format the disk. The user could
mistakenly believe the choice of an MS-DOS file system was being
presented.
Similarly on a paste operation it could be confusing to be
presented with a dialog to create a partition table without any
explanation of why a partition table was suddenly required in the
midst of the paste operation.
Neither the new partition creation, nor the partition paste
actions were performed after the Create Partition Table dialog
was displayed.
To further minimize the chance of accidentally creating a new partition
table, the following steps have been taken:
1) Rename non-standard Create button to stock Apply button.
2) Remove extra warning about erasing entire disk device.
3) Update GParted Manual accordingly.
Closes GParted bug #576374
If translated language is relatively long, then split the "Resize/Move" toolbar button text into two lines, and do not display the "Undo" button.

Thanks to Sebastion Kraft for designing the icons.
Thanks to Michael Monreal for the small patch to make use of themed app icon from hicolor.

* include/Makefile.am,
include/Operation.h,
include/Win_GParted.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Makefile.am,
src/Win_GParted.cc,
include/OperationCheck.h (new),
src/OperationCheck.cc (new): added 'check' operation. The
functionality was already there, but it was not possible yet to
activate it from the gui.
* implemented some stuff to find a good blocksize to use for
copy/move. Actually i'm not really happy with it, because probing
seems suboptimal, but it's better than nothing. As soon as i have
some time i should do some research on the subject to find a better
solution.
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: construct operations in the activate*()
functions instead of in Add_Operation(). This approach allows for
more customization of operations.
* src/Dialog_Partition_Copy.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: fixed some issues when manipulating a just
copied partition. (see also #349513)
* improved errorhandling a bit. At the initialscan we store
errors/warnings now in a list per partition and show the in the
partitioninfo dialog.
While executing an operation we collect all libparted exceptions in
a list and attach this list to the operationdetails when everything
is done.
* src/Win_GParted.cc: added FIXME:
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/fat32.cc: decoupled libparted partition and filesystemresizing.
This resulted in a much more consistent core. This also affected
several other aspects of resizing/moving in a positive way.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: perform some checks before adding a new
operation to the list.
* src/Partition.cc: made get_length() a bit safer
* src/Win_GParted.cc,
include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: implemented snap to cylinder algorithm.
Although the algorithm is very simple, it seems to work perfectly.
However, some additional testing is required.
* include/Dialog_Partition_Copy.h,
include/GParted_Core.h,
include/OperationCopy.h,
include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Dialog_Partition_Copy.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/OperationCopy.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: made blocksize settable by the user.
* src/DialogManageFlags.cc: disabled resizing of this dialog
* include/DialogFeatures.h,
include/Makefile.am,
include/Win_GParted.h,
src/DialogFeatures.cc,
src/Makefile.am,
src/Win_GParted.cc: renamed 'Filesystems' to 'Features' in the
featuredialog to better reflect the actual functionality
* include/Dialog_Filesystems.h,
src/Dialog_Filesystems.cc: removed
* include/Partition.h,
src/Partition.cc: added set_used() and operator!=
* src/Dialog_Partition_Copy.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/OperationCopy.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: it's now possible to copy from partition to
partition. (before this it was only possible to copy to unallocated
space)
* include/TreeView_Detail.h,
src/TreeView_Detail.cc: made icon behaviour more intelligent
* src/GParted_Core.cc: small improvement in open_device_and_disk()
* include/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.h,
src/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.cc: fixed a few issues with
selecting/activating partitions.
* include/Utils.h,
src/Utils.cc,
src/Dialog_Disklabel.cc,
src/Dialog_Partition_Info.cc (mk_label): improved support for
aligment.
* src/Win_GParted.cc: fixed a small alignmentissue in the devices
submenu.
* include/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.h,
src/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.cc: another change to highlighting of
selected partition.
* include/Partition.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: deal properly with just formatted partitions
* src/Operation.cc: added FIXME
* changed the way devices and partitions store their devicepaths.
Instead of holding a 'realpath' and a symbolic path we store paths
in a list. This allows for improved detection of mountpoins, free
space, etc..
Also fixed a nasty bug which showed up when you copy a partition
from one device to another. (thanks to mario for the report)
