* src/dd.c: Add new static global variable ibuf.
(alloc_ibuf, alloc_obuf): New functions factored from dd_copy().
(dd_copy): Call the new functions to allocate memory for
ibuf and obuf when necessary.
(skip): Likewise.
* tests/dd/no-allocate.sh: New test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the test.

With --suppress-matched, the lines that match the pattern will not be
printed in the output files. I.E. the first line from the second
and subsequent splits will be suppressed.
* src/csplit.c: process_regexp(),process_line_count(): Don't output the
matched lines. Since csplit includes "up to but not including" matched
lines in each split, the first line (in the next group) is the matched
line - so just skip it.
main(): Handle new option.
usage(): Mention new option.
* doc/coreutils.texi (csplit invocation): Mention new option, examples.
* tests/misc/csplit-suppress-matched.pl: New test script.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention new feature.

Use the more portable 'chmod a-w', instead of the 'chmod -w' form.
The latter is not always supported. Also its operation is
dependent on umask controlling the permissions bits for new files,
which is not the case in the presence of POSIX default ACLs for e.g.
In that case, chmod may print a warning like the following, and
exit with failure status:
chmod: man/hostid.1-t: new permissions are r--rw-r--, not r--r--r--
* man/local.mk: s/-w/a-w/
|
|
* init.cfg (require_gcc_shared_): A new function to check
that we can build shared libraries in the particular manner
we use in our tests.
* tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh: Use require_gcc_shared_.
Then fail rather than skip, if the actual shared lib build fails.
* tests/df/no-mtab-status.sh: Likewise.
* tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Likewise.
* tests/ls/getxattr-speedup.sh: Likewise.

* src/tail.c (main): If -n0 or -c0 were specified without -f,
then no data would ever be output, so exit without reading input.
* tests/tail-2/tail-n0f.sh: Augment the related test with this case.
|
|
* src/shuf.c (main): If -n0 specified then no data would ever be output,
so exit without reading input.
* tests/misc/shuf.sh: Augment the related test with this case.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (ln invocation): Describe how symlinks are
resolved with --relative, and give an example showing the greater
control available through realpath(1).
* tests/ln/relative.sh: Add a test to demonstrate full symlink
resolution, in a case where it might not be wanted.
|
|
Don't dereference an existing symlink being replaced.
I.E. generate the symlink relative to the symlink's containing dir,
rather than to some arbitrary place it points to.
* src/ln.c (convert_abs_rel): Don't consider the final component
of the symlink name when canonicalizing, as we want to avoid
dereferencing the final component.
* tests/ln/relative.sh: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

Reservoir sampling optimizes selecting K random lines from large or
unknown-sized input: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir_sampling
Note this also avoids reading any input when -n0 is specified.
* src/shuf.c (main): Use reservoir-sampling when the number of output
lines is known, and the input size is large or unknown.
(input_size): A new function to get the input size for regular files.
(read_input_reservoir_sampling): New function to read lines from input,
keeping only K lines in memory, replacing lines with decreasing prob.
(write_permuted_output_reservoir): New function to output reservoir.
* tests/misc/shuf-reservoir.sh: An expensive_ test using valgrind to
exercise the reservoir-sampling code.
* tests/local.mk: Reference new test.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.

Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/14020
|
|
* README-release: fix the `make` command, and mention how
to get the latest results without requring running a
system with the latest kernel.
* src/local.mk (src/fs-latest-magic.h): A new target to
document how/where to place the latest magic header.
(src/fs-kernel-magic): Adjust to include separately
downloaded header if available.
(src/fs-magic): Undefine MANPAGER as it may impact the
ability to pipe the output of man(1).
(fs-magic-compare): Don't echo the commands run as they're
distracting from the output which needs to be examined.
|
|
* m4/gmp.m4 (cu_GMP): Add an extra check that gmp.h is available
which is required on one Mac OS X 10.5.8 system at least,
where the lib was available but the header wasn't.
Also enable our GMP code on systems where GMP is not in a separate lib.
|
|
* src/od.c (usage): Mention any printable character is output,
Not just ASCII.
* doc/coreutils.texi (od invocation): Further clarify that only
single byte characters are output (due to the alignment requirement).
Also mention the fact that 3 digit octal sequences are output
for non printable characters without a corresponding C escape.
Reported in http://bugs.gnu.org/13947
|
|
* src/stat.c (usage): Mention that the values are only
defined for character and block special files.

can achieve the same results with a possibly more accurate sort.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (detailmenu): Remove the redundant numfmt heading.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (ambiguousGroupNote): Ensure '\' is escaped
appropriately within the macro. This was verified to generate
a single '\' in both "info" and "pdf" outputs.

* tests/misc/uniq.pl: Previously, if LOCALE_FR was not defined, all
tests would be skipped. Modified to skip only the relevant test.
|
|
* src/uniq.c (usage): Summarize the new option,
and adjust the --all-repeated option to be more consistent.
(check_file): Merge the --group functionality into
the core loop for the default uniq operation since
it's very similar and can output lines immediately upon reading.
(main): Handle the new --group option and make it
mutually exclusive with other selection options.
* tests/misc/uniq.pl: Add tests.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* doc/coreutils.texi (uniq invocation): Describe --group.
|
|
* src/system.h (emit_ancillary_info): Link to the bug report email
addresses and general help URLs online rather than specifying directly.

(main): Handle the new option.
(usage): Describe new option the same way sort does.
* doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Describe the new option.

* src/cfg.mk (sc_prohibit-gl-attributes): Disallow the __attribute()
form without trailing underscores as that is not elided where required.
Also ensure we use gnulib macros rather than defining our own.

Git honours the GIT_EDITOR environment variable, the "core.editor" Git
configuration variable, and the EDITOR environment variable (in that
order, and defaulting to "vi" if none of them is set) to decide which
editor should be invoked for the user when he has to or want to edit
his commit message.
However, our commit-msg hook, when invoking an editor on behalf of the
user to allow him to fix a non-policy-complaint commit message, only
honoured the EDITOR environment variable. To avoid potential annoying
inconsistencies, we should really use the same logic used by Git in the
selection of the editor. Luckily, we don't have to duplicate this
logic (that would be brittle in the long term), as we can rely on the
"git var" command, designed exactly to be used in situations like this.
* scripts/git-hooks ($editor): Adjust definition.

I have a custom 'editor' script in ~/bin, and a system-provided
'editor' program in /usr/bin (on Debian, this is a link set up the
"debian alternatives" subsystem). My '$EDITOR' and '$GIT_EDITOR'
variables are set simply to 'editor' (no absolute path), which I
expect should point to my 'editor' script, since ~/bin precedes
/usr/bin in my PATH definition. But the 'commit-msg' hook used in
coreutils unconditionally resets its PATH to '/bin:/usr/bin', which
causes it to call the "wrong" editor (the one in /usr/bin, not the
one in ~/bin) when it makes me update a botched commit message.
* scripts/git-hooks: Don't reset $ENV{PATH} to '/bin:/usr/bin',
which was only done to avoid failure when enabling Perl's taint
checking.
|
|
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg (bad_first_line): Return an error
message if the first line of a commit message ends with a period.
|
|
* NEWS: Add header line for next release.
* .prev-version: Record previous version.
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update.
|
|
* NEWS: Record release date.
|
|
* tests/du/threshold.sh: use `cut` rather than
sed to avoid using the non portable \t which
fails on sed on openbsd 5 at least.
Also remove a redundant call to `tr` and avoid
explicit setting of LANG=C which is done globally.
|
|
On linkers that don't remove unused functions,
there will be a reference to a missing dev_debug symbol
in the devmsg() function. So for now ...
* src/system.h: ... move devmsg() from here ...
* src/numfmt.c: ... to here, and document future cleanup.
* src/factor.c: Likewise.
|
|
src/numfmt.c (parse_format_string): On some systems, strtol() returns
EINVAL if no conversion was performed. So only handle ERANGE here,
and handle other format errors directly.
|
|
* tests/local.mk (check-root): Restrict to SUBDIRS=. as traversing
into gnulib-tests induces a false failure.
|
|
* src/numfmt.c (usage): Keep a single space between the "K = 1000",
so that it's not displayed on a separate line. Also place ','
between each unit entry to improve readability.
|
|
* src/numfmt.c (usage): Correct synopsis and make command description
clearer. Start option descriptions with lowercase letter; use
semicolon instead of period where needed; indent continuation lines;
gettextize single options for ease of translation and maintenance;
sort options alphabetically.
* doc/coreutils.texi (numfmt invocation): Sort numfmt options
alphabetically. Enforce double-blank-after-period style.
This addresses http://bugs.gnu.org/13681.

Both factor and numfmt recently introduced debug messages
for developers, enabled by --verbose and ---devdebug respectively.
There were a few issues though:
1. They used different mechanisms to enable these messages.
2. factor used --verbose which might be needed for something else
3. They used different methods to output the messages,
and numfmt used error() which added an unwanted newline
4. numfmt marked all these messages for translation and factor
marked a couple. We really don't need these translated.
So we fix the above issues here while renaming the enabling
option for both commands to ---debug (still undocumented).
* src/factor.c (verbose): Rename to dev_debug and change from int to
bool as it's just a toggle flag.
(long_options): Rename --verbose to ---debug.
* src/system.h (devmsg): A new inline function to output a message
if enabled by a global dev_debug variable in the compilation unit.
* src/numfmt.c: Use devmsg() rather than error().
Also remove the translation tags from these messages.
Also change debug flag to bool from int.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Adjust for the ---devdebug to ---debug change.
* cfg.mk (sc_marked_devdiagnostics): Add a syntax check to ensure
translations are not added to devmsg calls.

* tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate.sh: Avoid a subshell with bash,
which in turn causes the `kill` to be ineffective to the tail
processes (as the SIGTERM is sent to the subshell which doesn't
propagate the signal on to its children). On NFS the test
cleanup will then fail as there will be .nfs files maintained
in the directory for the files still opened by the tail processes.
Reported by Bernhard Voelker.
|
|
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: When the system locale grouping doesn't
match our expected format for grouping 1234 in the fr_FR locale,
reset the locale to 'C' so as to skip all locale tests.
|
|
* tests/cp/fail-perm.sh: Adjust expected diagnostic to match
just-changed cp diagnostic.
* tests/ln/hard-to-sym.sh: Likewise.
* .mailmap: Also map my new address.
|
|
Notes tests/init.sh is still in sync with gnulib
* bootstrap: update to latest
* gnulib: update avoiding secure_getenv and subsequent patches
as these are reported to fail on FreeBSD at least.
|

Note we use "failed to {access,close}" for those single operations,
and "error {read,writ}ing" for those partial operation failures.
* src/copy.c: Improve error messages for failing read, write and close.
* src/cp.c: Improve error messages for failing access.
* src/dd.c: Improve error messages for failing read, write and open.
* src/head.c: Improve error message for failing close.
* src/install.c: Improve error messages for failing access.
* src/ln.c: Likewise.
* src/mv.c: Likewise.
* src/touch.c: Improve error message for failing close.

Originally requested in Red Hat bugzilla #445213.
* src/stty.c (mode_info): Add support for DTR/DSR hardware flow control,
if available.

Prompted by the continuous integration build failure at:
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/4010493
* src/numfmt.c (parse_format_string): Correct both sign and size of
a printf format, which only gives a warning on 32 bit builds.
