2006-07-17Change GNU to @acronym{GNU} in a few places.Paul Eggert
Use "set-user-ID" and "set-group-ID" a bit more consistently. Use "appropriate privileges" rather than "super-user" a bit more consistently. (install invocation): Parent directories are now 755 without uid or gid changing. The default mode is now 0755, not 755. (mkdir invocation): Rewrite the top-level usage description, since I couldn't easily follow the old one. It's now 3 lines not 8. For -m, describe file permission bits versus other bits, and note that mkdir is atomic if you don't mention special bits. (chmod invocation): Mention what chmod does to setgid and setuid bits.
2006-07-17Initial version.Paul Eggert
2006-07-17chmod, install, and mkdir now leave setgid and setuid bitsPaul Eggert
of directories alone unless you specify them explicitly. install and mkdir now implement X correctly. install now creates parent directories with mode 755, without changing their owner or group.
2006-07-16* userspec.c (parse_with_separator): Say "invalid spec" rather thanJim Meyering
the sometimes erroneous "cannot get the login group of a numeric UID" for a spec like "not-a-username:" or "1:". Reported by suckfish@ihug.co.nz in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/199027.
2006-07-14(do_decode): Output to parameter OUT, not to stdout.Paul Eggert
2006-07-14* Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Use new file, build-aux/vc-list-files,Jim Meyering
rather than open-coding it. Now supports mercurial, too. * .hgignore: New file. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .hgignore, which ignores nearly all generated files, including ones like configure and po/*.po that are currently version-controlled in cvs. * build-aux/vc-list-files: New file.
2006-07-14* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add a few more .??* files.Jim Meyering
They've been in CVS, just haven't been distributed before this. Distribute ChangeLog-2005, too. (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add THANKS-to-translators.
2006-07-11Assume <dirent.h> exists, since gnulib assumes this now as well.Paul Eggert
2006-07-11Sync from gnulib.Paul Eggert
2006-07-11(gl_STDINT_H): Like yesterday's change toPaul Eggert
absolute-header.m4. Also, set ABSOLUTE_STDINT_H to a string "no/such/file/stdint.h" when there is no such file, so that the resulting C code can be parsed by dodgy compilers. Problems reported by Bob Proulx.
2006-07-10(gl_ABSOLUTE_HEADER): Use "" rather than <>Paul Eggert
around the absolute name, to work around a problem with the HP-UX 11.23 native C compiler, reported by Bob Proulx.

2006-07-09(inittables): Use toupper rather thanPaul Eggert
islower followed by toupper; it's simpler and typically faster now that we assume at least C89 semantics. Similarly for tolower.

2006-07-09(_D_EXACT_NAMELEN): Renamed from NLENGTH, forPaul Eggert
convenience on GNU systems. All uses changed. Don't bother looking for any dirent.h substitute other than ndir.h. (D_INO): Remove unnecessary parentheses. (IN_CTYPE_DOMAIN, ISGRAPH, ISPRINT, ISALNUM, ISALPHA): (ISCNTRL, ISLOWER, ISPUNCT, ISSPACE, ISUPPER, ISXDIGIT): (ISDIGIT_LOCALE, TOLOWER, TOUPPER): Remove. All uses changed to ctype.h equivalents.
