From http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=27338853 :
Greetings,
We are happy to announce the stable, merged release of ntfsprogs and
NTFS-3G.
The merged codebase will help to avoid duplicated maintenance of the large,
complex NTFS codebase, so development can focus on enhanced functionality,
reliability, and interoperability in the future.
Several alternatives have been considered how to organize the code
(library, tools, driver). The preferred solution is the simplest way which
is one large package, like Samba. So, there will be need to install only
one NTFS package (ntfs-3g_ntfsprogs), not two (ntfsprogs, ntfs-3g).
The code and status is available at
git clonegit://ntfs-3g.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/ntfs-3g/ntfs-3g_ntfsprogs
The package is a compatible, drop-in replacement for both ntfs-3g and
ntfsprogs.
The package contains the following improvements, changes and fixes:
ntfs-3g: fixed possible wrong hole size when overwriting compressed data
ntfs-3g: fixed listxattr() to environments with extended attributes
ntfs-3g: fixed ENOSPC when making an index non-resident
ntfs-3g: fixed partial mapping ahead of mapped runlist
ntfs-3g: enabled forensic mounting (currently same as read-only)
ntfs-3g: expand an attribute without creating a hole
ntfs-3g: improved appending data to a long hole
ntfs-3g: deny direct modifications to metadata files
ntfs-3g: option 'acl' to request the use of Posix ACLs
ntfsclone: fixed reading old big-endian ntfsclone images
ntfsclone: avoided writing beyond allocated variable
ntfsclone: close volume and cleanup when exiting
ntfsclone: new option not to clear the timestamps
ntfsclone: sync created image before remounting
ntfsclone: use a stream to produce aligned writes during image creation
ntfsinfo: display times in UTC
mkntfs: don't store full bitmap and logfile in memory
mkntfs: set a volume UUID if option -U
mkntfs: fixed $MFT allocated size
mkntfs: fixed allocated size of resident unnamed data
ntfsfix: new option -n for no action
ntfsfix: try alternate boot sector if cannot start up
ntfsfix: check and fix the upcase table
ntfsfix: try to fix file systems with incorrect size
ntfsundelete: fixed a segfault
ntfsresize: new option --info-mb-only
ntfsresize: new option --check

Many thanks to Jean-Pierre Andre and Erik Larsson to make this happen!
