v1.2.4

• After export, media files have "Date Created" and "Date Modified" filesystem metadata attributes modified to reflect the dates originally set when created by iOS.

  Requested by #4.

• Implemented --prepend-date and --prepend-date-separator options.

  These options make possible to prepend the creation date to each exported file. The files like IMG_1111.heic can be therefore exported as 2024-11-13_IMG_111.heic. The date separator can be modified using --prepend-date-separator option.

• Implemented two special keywords for the --since parameter.

  Instead of DATE (YYYY-MM-DD), user can also enter one of these:
  - last-week, which means "current date" minus 8 days
  - last-month, which means "current date" minus 32 days

• Added export for Apple ProRAW format files

  Files with .dng extension (Apple ProRAW) added to the list of exported media files.

v1.2.3

• The backup time is now displayed in a local timezone.

  Before this change, the --list report showed the backup time in
  a UTC timezone. This was confusing and unexpected. Now the backup
  time is always displayed in the local timezone.

• Added .3gp and .mp4 to the list of exported files.

  Files with these extensions are also exported from the camera roll.
  Requested by #3.

v1.2.2

• Added --add-trash option.

  With -add-trash option, it is now possible to extract also files marked as deleted. Such files contain "_DELETED" in their filename.

• Files are listed in a sorted order.

  Previously files were listed/copied in somehow random order. After this change, files should be listed/copied in a chronological order, from oldest to newest. This should make file listing more predictable because latest files should be at the end of the list.

• Fix for Manifest.plist parsing on Windows.

  Due to a bug in the Mac::PropertyList Perl module, binary plist files (Manifest.plist, Status.plist) are sometimes randomly appear to be corrupted when running on Windows. When this happens, the script usually ends with the infamous Not a HASH reference at ios_backup_extractor.pl line 729 error. This change fixes this error.
