Following is the list of cpio-related reports to bug-gnu-utils.
Many of them appear to be fixed, but quite a number of them is
probably still waiting for being handled.  The list is divided
into two parts, the messages are in somehow arbitrary order.

          Hi, I was wondering whether it was a bug or a feature that GNU
          cpio, while in copy-in mode, will create a multiply-linked set
          of files all of size 0 if the last linked file is not copied in

          Hello, Recently at OEone we fixed a bug in GNU cpio-2.4.2: When
          a file over about 0.5 megabyes grows while it is being

          I have seen corrupted files as a result of using the
          pass-through option in cpio. The corruption occurs when
          active/in-use (and growing) files are being copied. The problem
          is that the file size has

          files into a temporary name and then rename the file as the

          This patch enables cpio to be verbose about the files that it
          does not copy, which is very handy for seeing cpio's progress
