2008-06-26* HACKING: use shorter "-1" (over HEAD~1) with git format-patchJim Meyering
2008-06-26bootstrap.conf: don't list "open" specificallyJim Meyering
It is no longer necessary to list it specifically, now that several gnulib modules depend on the "open" module. This reverts commit 3ea1fe588e20f196cc9b9907d5943bd620c6b944.
2008-06-26truncate: handle the case in which off_t != intmax_tJim Meyering
* src/truncate.c (parse_len): Use a temporary of type intmax_t, rather than off_t; detect out of range [OFF_T_MIN..OFF_T_MAX]. (main) [IF_LINT]: Initialize, to avoid an unwarranted "may be used uninitialized" warning. Reported by Michael Geng. Signed-off-by: Pádraig Brady <P@draigBrady.com>

2008-06-22use gnulib's "open" moduleJim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add open. This is required at least for Solaris 9 and HP-UX 11, to avoid a truncate test failure. For details, see this thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/13755
2008-06-22stat: warn that the --context (-Z) option (a no-op) is obsoleteJim Meyering

2008-06-17join: improve memory managementBo Borgerson
* src/join.c (struct seq): Use a (struct line **) for `lines' rather than one long (struct line *). This allows individual lines to be swapped out if necessary. (reset_line): Get a line ready for new input. (init_linep): Create a new line and assign it to the the pointer passed in. (spareline[2]): Hold a spare line for each input file. (free_spareline): Clean up. (get_line): Take a (struct line **) instead of a (struct line *). If the line to be overwritten is the previous line for the current file then swap it out for the spare. (join): Accomodate new structure of SEQs and new parameters to get_line; Don't free stale lines until the end -- they're re-usable now. (dup_line): Remove function. * NEWS: Mention the performance improvement.
2008-06-16* doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Drop leading blanks.Ralf Wildenhues
2008-06-16remove redundant const directivesJim Meyering
In 1463824d8e7f72c31f1d803d7cfe2b608ccafc5c, I added some missing "const" directives, as well as some new, redundant ones. This removes the redundant ones. Pointed out by Eric Blake. * base64.c, cat.c, chcon.c, chgrp.c, chmod.c, chown.c, comm.c: * cp.c, csplit.c, cut.c, date.c, dd.c, df.c, dircolors.c, du.c: * env.c, expand.c, fmt.c, fold.c, groups.c, head.c, id.c: * install.c, join.c, kill.c, ln.c, ls.c, md5sum.c, mkdir.c: * mkfifo.c, mknod.c, mktemp.c, mv.c, nice.c, nl.c, od.c: * paste.c, pathchk.c, pinky.c, pr.c, ptx.c, readlink.c, rm.c: * rmdir.c, runcon.c, seq.c, shred.c, shuf.c, sort.c, split.c: * stat.c, stty.c, su.c, sum.c, tac.c, tail.c, tee.c, timeout.c: * touch.c, tr.c, truncate.c, tty.c, uname.c, unexpand.c, uniq.c: * wc.c, who.c: Remove redundant const directives. * maint.mk (sc_const_long_option): Don't require redundant "const".

2008-06-15address root cause of compilation failures:Jim Meyering
The affected code wasn't even being compiled on my system, because HAVE_NL_LANGINFO was not defined. On other systems, where vasnprintf.m4 determines it needs %A or %a replacement support, it _would_ check for nl_langinfo, and expose the compilation failure. * m4/jm-macros.m4: Check for nl_langinfo, required by sort.c.
2008-06-15fix the compilation failure for realJim Meyering
* src/sort.c (monthtab): Neither "const" may be added.
2008-06-15fix a const-related compilation failure in sort.cJim Meyering
* src/sort.c (monthtab): Remove overzealous "const". Table entries are modified in an #if HAVE_NL_LANGINFO block. Introduced by 1463824d8e7f72c31f1d803d7cfe2b608ccafc5c.
2008-06-15update HACKING guidelinesJim Meyering
* HACKING: Don't suggest --signoff; it's redundant. (log requirements): Specify preferred forms. Mention preference for "<" over ">". Mention the "const placement" preference.
2008-06-14run gnulib-tests in parallelJim Meyering
* tests/Makefile.am: Define AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS, so check.mk can append. * tests/check.mk: Define SUFFIXES, so check.mk can append. * build-aux/check.mk (SUFFIXES): Append, so as not to evoke automake warning the prior definition in gnulib-tests/gnulib.mk. (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): Likewise. * gnulib-tests/Makefile.am (TEST_LOGS): Define. Include build-aux/check.mk
