2007-05-22"cut -f 2-0" now fails; before, it was equivalent to "cut -f 2-"Jim Meyering
Also, diagnose the '-' in "cut -f -" as an invalid range, rather than interpreting it as the unlimited range, "1-". * NEWS: Mention these changes. * src/cut.c (set_fields): Don't interpret an accumulator "value" of 0 as an unspecified range endpoint. Give better diagnostics. Adjust a comment so that it is true also for 64-bit size_t. * tests/cut/Test.pm: Add tests for the above.
2007-05-22stty: fix a harmless syntax nitJim Meyering
* src/stty.c (visible): Use ";" as the statement terminator between two assignments, not ",". (integer_arg): Join an unnecessarily wrapped line.
2007-05-22stty: diagnose an invalid hex value in 35-colon commmand-line argumentJim Meyering
* NEWS: Mention this. * src/stty.c (strtoul_tcflag_t, strtoul_cc_t): New functions. (recover_mode): Use those functions (not sscanf), to parse the string robustly. * tests/stty/invalid: New file. Test for the above. * tests/stty/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add invalid. * .x-sc_prohibit_atoi_atof: Don't exempt stty.c from this check. Add tests/stty/invalid so we don't have to obfuscate the comment about sscanf therein. * Makefile.maint (sc_prohibit_atoi_atof): Mention sscanf in the diagnostic, too.
2007-05-20* TODO: Remove some now-completed or no longer relevant items.Jim Meyering
2007-05-19Rename uses of futimens -> gl_futimens; glibc now declares the former.Jim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Reflect renaming: futimens -> gl_futimens. * src/touch.c (touch): Likewise.
2007-05-18* Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Remove -pedantic from $(CFLAGS)Jim Meyering

2007-05-15Generate a dozen test-related Makefile.am files at bootstrap-time.Jim Meyering
* README-hacking: Build-from-checkout now require Perl, too. * bootstrap: Now that these generated Makefile.am files are no longer under version control, they must be created at bootstrap time.

2007-05-13Test uniq's new --zero-terminated (-z) option.Jim Meyering
* tests/uniq/Test.pm: When possible, create a "-z"-testing variant of each existing test. (2z, 3z, 4z, 5z, 20z, 122, 123): New tests from James Youngman.
2007-05-13Add -z option to uniq. Originally proposed by Egmont Koblinger.James Youngman
* NEWS: Mention uniq's new option: --zero-terminated (-z). * src/uniq.c: Add new option, --zero-terminated (-z), to make uniq use the NUL byte as separator/delimiter rather than newline.

(usage): Describe new option the same way sort does. * doc/coreutils.texi (uniq invocation): Describe the new option.
2007-05-07* NEWS: Mention that last week's tr bug dates back to 1992.Jim Meyering

2007-05-04Avoid failure of root-only test when run with a restrictive umask.Jim Meyering

2007-05-03Avoid test failure when run with a permissive umask.Jim Meyering
* tests/rm/no-give-up: Set permissions of test directory properly, i.e., not depending on umask prohibiting go=w. Reported by AIDA Shinra.

2007-03-29mkfifo, mknod: Accept new "-Z, --context=C" option.Jim Meyering
* src/mkfifo.c, src/mknod.c: Include <selinux/selinux.h>. (main): Honor it. * src/Makefile.am (mkfifo_LDADD, mknod_LDADD): Use $(LIB_SELINUX).
2007-03-29mkdir: Accept new "-Z, --context=C" option.Jim Meyering
* src/mkdir.c: Include <selinux/selinux.h>. (main): Honor it. * src/Makefile.am (mkdir_LDADD): Use $(LIB_SELINUX).
2007-03-29* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux: New file. Test for the bug reported inJim Meyering
* tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-a-selinux. * tests/selinux: New file. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add selinux. * tests/misc/selinux: Source the new script, rather than open coding it. Change how "cp -a" and "cp --preserve=context" work with SELinux. Now, cp -a attempts to preserve context, but failure to do so does not change cp's exit status.

(decode_preserve_arg): Set it or reset it. FIXME: add an on-writable-NFS-only test
