I wouldn't be surprised if there were issues around files with NULs
in them. The underlying bug(s) should be tracked down and fixed.
Meanwhile, you can use the 'yes' command to generate noise for test
files. (yes | dd bs=64k count=1 > file)
sure.
i haven't dug further. and this is on master. i also haven't tested
the 1.6 branch.
This code shouldn't go anywhere near 1.6, so don't worry about it.
which code are you referring to? currently the differences between
master and 1.6 aren't all that great, and while i discovered this
issue while testing the new marker line format, i'm skeptical that
that's the cause.
