This commit contains a batch of changes that were made to the Brotli
compression algorithm in the last month. Most important changes:
* Fixes to the spec.
* Change of code length code order.
* Use a 2-level Huffman lookup table in the decoder.
* Faster uncompressed meta-block decoding.
* Optimized encoding of the Huffman code.
* Detection of UTF-8 input encoding.
* UTF-8 based literal cost modeling for improved
backward reference selection.
This commit contains a batch of changes that were made to the Brotli
compression algorithm in the last month. Most important changes:
* Updated spec
* Changed Huffman code length alphabet to use run length codes more
efficiently, based on a suggestion by Robert Obryk
* Changed encoding of the number of Huffman code lengths (HLEN)
* Changed encoding of the number of Huffman trees (NTREES)
* Added support for uncompressed meta-blocks
This commit contains a batch of changes that were made to the Brotli
compression algorithm in the last three weeks. Most important changes:
* Added UTF8 context model for good text compression.
* Simplified context modeling by having only 4 context modes.
* Per-block context mode selection.
* Faster backward copying and bit reading functions.
* More efficient histogram coding.
* Streaming support for the decoder and encoder.
