2021-08-12	Replace format.txt with an asciidoc version	Zachary Dremann

2021-08-12	Strip space from first column of format.txt	Zachary Dremann
	This is to allow git to recognize that format.txt "moves" to format.adoc in the next commit (with -M20, at least), which should allow easier comparison for what has changed (and more importantly, what hasn't) in converting to asciidoc. For instance, doing the diff with the following options: ``` -M20 --ignore-all-space --word-diff ```

2021-07-21	Fix libsquashfs directory writer size accounting	David Oberhollenzer
	The squashfs readdir() implementation in the Linux kernel returns non-existing "." and ".." entries for offsets 0 and 1, and after that reads from disk. For convenience, it was decided to store an off-by-3 value on disk instead of doing complex primary school math to adjust for this. This didn't show up until now, because the kernel implementation trusts the value from the directory header more than the actual size in the inode and happily reads 3 more than the inode would allow it to. This only showed up with 7-zip which subtracts 3 from the size and expects the result to be exact and bails if the directory headers suggest otherwise. And yes, I did consider making a "Holy Hand Granade of Antioch" reference, but consciously decided not to. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>

2020-01-19	Update explanation on directory index accounting	David Oberhollenzer
	Tests with the Debian image (which is generated with squashfs-tools, so should be interpreted as ground truth) have showed that the count is not stored off-by-one. The code was already doing the right thing, but the documentation was wrong. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
