2008-08-19.gitattributes: generalizeEric Blake

* tests/dd/misc: Set LC_ALL=C via env. * tests/cp/thru-dangling: Set POSIXLY_CORRECT via env. This is necessary at least on AIX 5.3. Reported by Jeph Cowan and Ralf Wildenhues. Details here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/14235/focus=14257
2008-08-14"expr --bignum 1" now fails when expr is built without libgmpJim Meyering
* src/expr.c (main): When --bignum is requested, yet expr was built without libgmp, exit nonzero (3) in addition to giving a diagnostic.
2008-08-14mktemp, sort, tac: don't use undefined after mkstemp failureJim Meyering
When mkstemp fails, the template buffer may have undefined contents, so we must not print it. * src/sort.c (create_temp_file): Use temp_dir, not "file" when diagnosing failed mkstemp, because "file" may be undefined. * tests/misc/sort-merge: Adjust for new expected output. Jeph Cowan and Ralf Wildenhues reported the test failure: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/14235/focus=14257 * src/tac.c (copy_to_temp): Don't use template buffer after failed mkstemp call, since its contents may be undefined. * tests/misc/tac (pipe-bad-tmpdir): New test for the above. * src/mktemp.c (main): Save a copy of the template string, solely for use in case mkstemp fails. * tests/misc/mktemp (pipe-bad-tmpdir): New test for the above.

2008-08-11echo: correct description of \cBenno Schulenberg
* src/echo.c (usage): Correct description of \c. * coreutils.texi (echo invocation): Likewise. * src/echo.c: Remove --help-duplicating comment.

2008-08-11doc: remove stray word from date's field width descriptionBenno Schulenberg
2008-08-11date: remove confusing and unneeded sentence from --helpBenno Schulenberg

2008-08-10sort: remove unnecessary declaration of strtodJim Meyering
* src/sort.c (STDC_HEADERS): Remove declaration of strtod.
2008-08-10sort: avoid erroneous castJim Meyering
* src/sort.c (OPEN_MAX): Define if not already defined. (MAX_NMERGE): Remove definition. (specify_nmerge): Don't cast MAX_NMERGE (of type size_t) to unsigned int. Instead, use OPEN_MAX as the fall-back value.
2008-08-10sort: don't print uninitialized in diagnosticJim Meyering
* src/sort.c (specify_nmerge): Do use uinttostr value. Provoke with e.g., sort -m --batch-size=18446744073709551617 Omit quotes around known-numeric value in diagnostic. * tests/misc/sort-merge [nmerge-big]: Tighten ERR_SUBST regexp to require a numeric value in that diagnostic, so this particular failure cannot reappear.
2008-08-09* .gitattributes: Better diff output for texinfo sources.Jim Meyering
2008-08-09dd.c: reduce duplication in new O_FULLBLOCK-defining codeJim Meyering
* src/dd.c (MULTIPLE_BITS_SET): New macro, extracted from... (multiple_bits_set): ...this function. Use a single-line, and far simpler expression (no need to list all O_* symbols again) to validate the derived O_FULLBLOCK value.
2008-08-09* coreutils.texi (factor invocation, expr invocation): Adjust wording.Jim Meyering
2008-08-09expr: avoid compiler warningsJim Meyering

2008-08-09* tests/misc/expr: Add tests of the new GMP-based code.Jim Meyering
2008-08-06expr: support arbitrary-precision arithmeticJames Youngman
* src/Makefile.am (expr_LDADD): Link expr against GNU MP. * doc/coreutils.texi (expr invocation): Describe --bignum, --no-bignum. Explain the new arbitrary-precision functionality. * NEWS: Indicate that arbitrary-precision arithmetic is now supported in expr. * src/expr.c (enum valtype): Added mp_integer, signifying a GNU MP number. (usage): Document the new options --bignum and --no-bignum which force and prohibit the use of arbitrary-precision arithmetic, respectively. (long_options): data structure for getopt_long, which we need to use to parse the options mentioned above. (main): parse these options with getopt_long instead of parse_long_options. (valinfo): Downgrade the numeric member of the union from intmax_t to signed long, since MP lacks functions for promoting an intmax_t to an arbitrary-precision quantity. (enum arithmetic_mode): Represents the current choice between --bignum, --no-bignum and the default (automatically switch from one to the other if needed). (integer_overflow): issue a more explicit error message indicating that MP is not available. (string_too_long): new function, emits a fatal error message for the case where an argument to the 'index' expression is too long for a string offset to be represented. (int_value): With --bignum, create the value as mp_integer rather than plain integer. (substr_value): factored out of eval6; implements "substr". (freev): also destroy mp_integer values. Check that no mp_integer values exist if --no-bignum was specified. (printv, null, tostring): support mp_integer. (toint): new funtion for converting from string or mp_integer to integer. (getsize): extracts a size_t value from a VALUE object; used to implement substr. (promote): promotes a value from integer to mp_integer. (domult, dodivide): functions for multiplication and division, factored out of eval4. (doadd): addition/subraction function, factpred out of eval3. (eval3): support mp_integer types; call doadd. (eval4): support mp_integer types; call domult, dodivide. (eval6): support mp_integer offsets and lengths for "substr" and "index". * TODO: Mention that expr supports arbitrary-precision arithmetic, and suggest that this might also be a good idea for seq. * AUTHORS (expr): Add James Youngman.
2008-08-06doc: mv,cp: undocument the --reply optionJames Youngman
* doc/coreutils.texi (mv invocation): Remove documentation for mv --reply. (cp invocation): Likewise. * NEWS: mention this.
2008-08-06document the supported baud rates beyond 38400James Youngman
* doc/coreutils.texi (Special): Document the supported baud rates beyond 38400.
2008-08-05ls: ignore spurious getfilecon failure due to lack of SELinux supportJohn David Anglin
* src/ls.c (gobble_file): Upon failed getfilecon, treat an errno value of EOPNOTSUPP just like ENOTSUP. See <http://bugs.debian.org/488549>.
2008-08-05Document uptime.James Youngman
* doc/coreutils.texi (uptime invocation): document uptime. * TODO: uptime is documented now. * src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Use fprintftime to print the time, rather than printf. This should make the situation better for translations.
2008-08-04doc: correct and normalize --help output of several toolsBenno Schulenberg
* src/chroot.c (usage): Add "[ARG]" to synopsis. * src/cut.c (usage): Remove an inconsistent period in an option description. * src/du.c (usage): Remove superfluous argument after short option -X. Also remove inconsistent uppercase and final period. Use a single indent level for prettiness. * src/shred.c (usage): Normalize the synopsis. * src/stty.c (usage): Options -F and --file are alternatives, cannot both be used. * src/sum.c (usage): -r does not overrule -s; the last one counts. * src/uptime.c (usage): Remove inconsistent space from the synopsis. * src/users.c: Likewise.
2008-08-04false: mark "false" description for translationJim Meyering
* src/true.c (usage): Mark both strings with N_, so that the one for "false" is also extracted for translation. For consistency, mark both, although only the latter one needed it. Inspired by a patch from Benno Schulenberg.
2008-08-04factor: credit Torbjörn GranlundJames Youngman
* src/factor.c: Credit Torbjörn Granlund as the author of the arbitrary-precision factorization code.
2008-08-03doc: make it clear we're talking about the Linux kernelJim Meyering
* doc/coreutils.texi (mv invocation): tweak wording
2008-08-02tests: fix build-aux/check.mk for non-GNU makeRalf Wildenhues
* build-aux/check.mk ($(TEST_LOGS)) [!GNU_MAKE]: Check for a $(TESTS) test in the build dir, before one in srcdir. For details, see <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/14198>.
