The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:
* ddrescue-1.28-1
GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from
one file or block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying
hard to rescue data in case of read errors. Ddrescue does not
truncate the output file if not asked to. So, every time you run
it on the same output file, it tries to fill in the gaps.

This is an update to the latest upstream release.
Changes in version 1.28:
* The option '--verify-on-error' has been renamed to '--check-on-error'.
* The option '--verify-input-size' has been renamed to
'--check-input-size'.
* The option synonym '--exit-on-error' has been removed and is no
longer recognized.
* In fill and rescue modes, ddrescue now makes a final fsync call on
outfile to prevent an early exit if the kernel caches all the writes.
* Option '-t, --show-status' of ddrescuelog now shows the mapfile
names at verbosity level 0 if more than one mapfile is specified.
