preallocate working incorrectly in 3.1.3
I believe that the changes to support --preallocate and --sparse together
have broken --preallocate by itself (commit
f3873b3d88b61167b106e7b9227a20147f8f6197)
The previous behavior of --preallocate was to do just that: reserve blocks
in the filesystem WITHOUT setting the size of the file to the final
length. The reported filesize would change as the preallocated blocks were
actually written.
