* src/dircolors.hin: Add .xz, .txz, .tbz and .tlz.
|
|
* README-hacking: Use <http://tukaani.org/xz/>
* README-prereq: Mention xz, not lzma.
|
|
* README-prereq: Mention new requirement on automake-1.11,
with its new location and updated dependency on autoconf-2.62.
Remove the reference to coreutils-7.0 so that this file
implicitly refers to the latest or release version of coreutils.
Fix and clarify the instructions for updating the $PATH.

|
* HACKING (Add documentation): Add a link to the GCS.
|
|
* bootstrap.conf (obsolete_gnulib_modules): Remove memchr from
the list, now that it fixes a problem in some modern C libraries.
(gnulib_modules): Add it here.
|
|
This should help people notice that they are generated.
Note: each file already has a comment to that effect from help2man.
* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Make generated files read-only.
Also, don't redirect directly to the target, $@.
|
|
* man/Makefile.am (.x.1, check-x-vs-1, check-programs-vs-x):
Mark with $(AM_V_GEN), so that automake-1.11 prints
"GEN $@" by default (stick with "GEN" in spite of the latter two
rules not officially generating anything -- they're just tests).
|
|
* src/chroot.c (set_additional_groups): Add comments.
Given an empty or all-comma group list, diagnose it and return nonzero.
When more than one group is invalid, diagnose all of them,
not just the first.
(main): Honor --groups= also when --userspec= is not specified.
Now that set_additional_groups consistently diagnoses its failures,
don't diagnose it separately here.
* tests/chroot/credentials: Do not invoke with an empty group list.
|
|
* src/chroot.c (main): Initialize both "uid" and "gid". To -1.
This also allows one to set the user-ID or primary group-ID to 0,
in case it's not that already.
* tests/chroot/credentials: Test for the above.
|
|
* src/chroot.c (main): Exit upon set-group-ID or set-user-ID failure.
|
|
* tests/test-lib.sh (NON_ROOT_GROUP): Use "nobody", not "nogroup".
|
|
* dist-check.mk (warn_cflags): Remove definition, now that it's
been subsumed by --enable-gcc-warnings.
(my-distcheck): Use configure with --enable-gcc-warnings and remove
use of $(warn_cflags).
|
|
* src/head.c (usage): Use -n K, not -n N, to avoid confusion.
* src/tail.c (usage): Likewise.
* doc/coreutils.texi (head invocation, tail invocation):
Likewise.
Reported by Christophe Lyon.

|
* NEWS: Document the new option
* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): ditto
* src/sort.c (main): handle the new --human-numeric-sort option (-h).
(human_numcompare): A new function to compare SI and IEC suffixes
before falling back to the standard --numeric comparison.
(find_unit_order): A new helper function to find the order
of magnitude of a number string as determined by its suffix.
(check_mixed_SI_IEC): A new helper function to exit with error
if both SI and IEC suffixes are presented.
* tests/misc/sort: Add 8 tests to test the new functionality.
* THANKS: Update
|
|
* NEWS: Note chroot's new options.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Document them.
* src/chroot.c (main): Add support for --userspec and --groups.
* tests/Makefile.am (root-tests): Add chroot/credentials.
* tests/chroot/credentials: New file.
* tests/test-lib.sh: Define NON_ROOT_GROUP to a default value.
|
|
* src/comm.c (usage): give more information on the -123 parameters,
with examples to show that they can be combined.
Addresses <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?24974>.
* doc/coreutils.texi (comm invocation): Mention that the
column separators are suppressed along with the column.
Suggestion from Dan Jacobson.
* man/comm.x: Reference other commands that match adjacent lines.
* man/join.x: ditto.
* man/uniq.x: ditto.
|
|
* bootstrap.conf (buildreq): Require automake-1.11, not 1.10b,
for our use of AM_SILENT_RULES.
* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Likewise.
|
|
* HACKING (Miscellaneous useful git commands): Add a few.
|
|
* dist-check.mk (warn_cflags): Add -Wno-enum-compare.
|
|
* configure.ac: Add an explicit -Wno-logical-op,
now that not listing -Wlogical-op is insufficient.
|
|
* src/sort.c (main): Use ARRAY_CARDINALITY, rather than open-coding it.
* src/factor.c (WHEEL_END): Likewise.
* src/csplit.c (main): Likewise.
* src/od.c: Likewise,
* src/ls.c (main): Likewise.
(N_ENTRIES): Remove definition. Use ARRAY_CARDINALITY instead.
* src/dircolors.c: Likewise.
(array_len): Remove definition.
|
|
* src/tr.c (N_CHAR_CLASSES): Remove anonymous enum definition.
(look_up_char_class): Use ARRAY_CARDINALITY, rather than N_CHAR_CLASSES.
|
|
* src/system.h (ARRAY_CARDINALITY): Define if not already defined.
|
|
* configure.ac: With --enable-gcc-warnings, -Wlong-long would
cause compilation failure due to inclusion of lib/gethrxtime.h.
Initialize "nw".
|
|
* cfg.mk (gnulib_dir): Remove definition, now that gnulib's
maint.mk provides the default we want.
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
|
|
* tests/misc/date-next-dow: In the strftime call use %Y-%m-%d
rather than the newer %F equivalent which is not available
on Solaris 8 for example.
|
|
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
|
|
* README-release: Mention gnu_ftp_host-{alpha,...} settings in cfg.mk.
Now that XZ_OPT is set via maint.mk, don't mention it here.
|
|
* src/truncate.c (main): Pass unsigned characters to isspace.
* NEWS: Mention this.
|
|
* NEWS: Add header line for next release.
* .prev-version: Record previous version.
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update.
|
|
* NEWS (Build-related): Mention make check fixes.
|
|
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention the date-related fixes.
(Portability): Mention the ACL-related fixes on *BSD.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (uniq invocation): Simplify the
text to remove the inconsequential mentioning of order,
while implying that LC_COLLATE can alter equality comparisons.
* src/comm.c (usage): Mention LC_COLLATE is significant.
* src/join.c (usage): Ditto.
* src/uniq.c (usage): Ditto. Also improve the summary.
Suggestion from Andries Brouwer
|
|
* tests/rm/one-file-system: Run umount via trap, so it runs
also upon irregular termination.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (check-AUTHORS): Set locale.
|
|
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest *public*.
|
|
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
|
|
Use gnulib's new priv-set module and updated write-any-file.
With them, the remove-called can_write_any_file function no
longer tries to drop the unlink-directory privilege, so now
each caller of remove must do that separately, calling
priv_set_remove_linkdir.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add priv-set.
* src/rm.c: Include "priv-set.h".
(main): Call priv_set_remove_linkdir.
* src/mv.c (main): Likewise.
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
|
|
* src/Makefile.am (check-AUTHORS): Revert back to using
en_US.UTF-8, to ease parsing (English-only) text around the
list of names, even when .po files are not installed.
Reported by Andreas Schwab.
Along the way, use $(AM_V_GEN), not "@".
(sc_tight_scope): Use $(AM_V_GEN) here, too.
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest, for the proper_name_utf8 fix
that makes --version output print the UTF-8 rendering of author names
in more cases.
|
|
* tests/misc/date-next-dow: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/date-next-dow.
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest, for getdate.y that
handles "next Monday" properly when run on a Monday.
|
|
* NEWS: Add header line for next release.
* .prev-version: Record previous version.
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update.
|
|
* NEWS: Record release date.
|
|
* README-release: Specify -j1 on the command to run all tests.
Otherwise, running some in parallel would cause failures, e.g.,
for rm/ext3-perf and tail-2/assert-2.
|
|
* m4/stdopen.m4: Delete now-unused file.
* lib/stdopen.h: Likewise.
* lib/stdopen.c: Likewise.
|
|
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
|
|
* doc/Makefile.am (sc-lower-case-var): Don't redirect stderr of
$(PERL) (which is sometimes build-aux/missing) to /dev/null,
so that a failing "make check" explains that Perl is not installed.
Reported by James Youngman.
|
|
* doc/Makefile.am: Use $(AM_V_GEN) in place of each leading "@".
(check-texinfo): Align line-continuation backslashes.
|
|
* gnulib: Update submodule to latest.
|
|
* NEWS (Portability): getgrouplist has the portability issues,
not getgroups.
|
|
* src/df.c (main): Update comment to match.
