New:
- Add the ability to truncate the ping body to its _last_ N bytes,
defaulting to enabled and to 10KB (10,000 bytes) limit. The flag to
adjust the limit is `-ping-body-limit`. Pass 0 to disable the
feature.
Unless you have your own instance with very large ping body limits,
truncation will happen on the server side. Hosted healtchecks.io
service at hc-ping.com will record the _first_ 10,000 bytes,
discarding the rest. Often the last few lines of output more relevant
to failure or success of a command. Implementing this on the client
side also saves bandwidth and increases the odds of successful
delivery of the ping in under less than ideal network conditions.
- Redirect the stdin of runitor to the stdin of the command.
Lack of this feature was an oversight.
Changes:
- stdout and stderr of the command now gets combined and goes to
terminal's stdout.
Previously they went to terminal's respective output streams.
0.6.0:
cmd stdout -> term stdout
cmd stderr -> term stderr
0.7.0 and forward:
cmd stdout & stderr -> term stdout
This change was needed to preserve the temporal ordering of
`write(2)`s to stdout and stderr and reflecting the exact output of
the command to both at the terminal and the ping body.
- `-quiet` and `-silent` flags now suppress output to ping body as well.
Previously they only affected terminal output.
Bug fixes:
- Temporal ordering of stdout and stderr writes are fixed with terminal
and ping body output behavior change. More on this at
