2010-10-20doc: add a cross reference from cat's man page to "tac"Rodrigo Campos
* man/cat.x: See also "tac".
2010-10-19tests: trigger and test for md5sum's new diagnosticsJim Meyering
* tests/misc/md5sum: Test for new diagnostics.
2010-10-19md5sum: print a summary warning for improperly formatted linesBenno Schulenberg
And remove the now-superfluous totals from the other two warnings, so the plurals will also work in other languages than English. * src/md5sum.c (digest_check): Change as above. * tests/misc/md5sum (check-quiet2): Adjust accordingly.
2010-10-18build: enable -Werror for gnulib-tests, tooJim Meyering
* gnulib: Update to latest for warning-free tests. * gnulib-tests/Makefile.am (AM_CFLAGS): Uncomment $(WERROR_CFLAGS), now that these tests are warning-free.
2010-10-17maint: update bootstrap from gnulibJim Meyering
* bootstrap: Update from gnulib.
2010-10-17.gitignore: anchor patternsJim Meyering
* .gitignore: Anchor most patterns. Remove .tarball-version. * doc/.gitignore: Anchor all patterns. Remove getdate.texi and get_date.texi.
2010-10-17tests: sort-float: avoid spurious test failure on ppc/ppc64Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/sort-float: On systems with DBL_MIN < LDBL_MIN, this test would fail because the expected output was not sorted. Detect that case, and if needed, reverse those two values.
2010-10-16fold: fix fadvise hintAndreas Schwab
* src/fold.c (fold_file): Apply fadvise to istream, not stdin. This bug would have inhibited the fadvise optimization when not reading from standard input.
2010-10-15post-release administriviaJim Meyering
* NEWS: Add header line for next release. * .prev-version: Record previous version. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update.

* NEWS: Record release date.
2010-10-15build: update gnulib for vasnprintf fixJim Meyering
2010-10-14bug#7213: [PATCH] sort: fix buffer overrun on 32-bit hosts when warning re ↵Paul Eggert
obsolete keys * src/sort.c (key_warnings): Local buffer should be of size INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (uintmax_t), not INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (sword). This bug was discovered by running 'make check' on a 32-bit Solaris 8 sparc host, using Sun cc. I saw several other instances of invoking umaxtostr on a buffer declared to be of size INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (VAR), and these instances should at some point be replaced by INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (uintmax_t) too, as that's a less error-prone style.
2010-10-14tests: work around portability and clock-skew problemsPaul Eggert
* tests/misc/ls-misc (push_ls_colors): Don't assume LS_COLORS is set. This part of the fix is by Jim Meyering. (sl-dangle2, sl-dangle3, sl-dangle4, sl-dangle5): Don't assume that newly-created files will have time stamps in the past. They might not, due to clock skew, if the file systems are remote. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/21322/focus=21346
2010-10-13install: avoid warning with Solaris 10 ccPaul Eggert
* src/install.c (extra_mode): Don't assign ~S_IRWXUGO & ~S_IFMT to a mode_t variable, as the number might be too big to fit. Solaris 10 cc warns about this, and the C standard says it has undefined behavior.
2010-10-13mbsalign: avoid warning with Solaris 10 ccPaul Eggert
* gl/lib/mbsalign.c: Include <stdint.h> for SIZE_MAX. Use SIZE_MAX rather than (size_t) -1, to avoid warning for "size_t x = -1" on Solaris 10 cc. * gl/modules/mbsalign (Depends-on): Add stdint.
2010-10-13sort: fix unportable cast of unsigned char * -> char *Paul Eggert
* src/sort.c (fold_toupper): Change this back from char to unsigned char, fixing a portability issue introduced in commit 59e2e55d0f154a388adc9bac37d2b45f2ba971f8 dated February 26, as the C Standard doesn't let you convert from unsigned char * to char * without a cast, and the (in theory more portable) style here is to convert char values, not pointer values. (getmonth): Convert char to unsigned char when needed for comparison.
2010-10-13build: prepare to enable -Werror also for gnulib-tests/Jim Meyering
* configure.ac (GNULIB_WARN_CFLAGS): Define new variable, for use in gnulib-tests. * gnulib-tests/Makefile.am: Disable specific -W___ options, but only for a few specific offending tests: (test_xvasprintf_CFLAGS): Define. (test_lock_CFLAGS, test_tls_CFLAGS): Define.
2010-10-13tests: fix rand-isaac testPaul Eggert
* gl/tests/test-rand-isaac.c (main): Fix swapped arguments to strtol.
2010-10-12tail: fix checking of currently unavailable directoriesPádraig Brady
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Handle the case where tail --follow=name with inotify, is not able to add a watch on a specified directory. This may happen due to inotify resource limits or if the directory is currently missing or inaccessible. In all these cases, revert to polling which will try to reopen the file later. Note inotify returns ENOSPC when it runs out of resources, and instead we report a particular error message, lest users think one of their file systems is full. (main): Document another caveat with using inotify, where we currently don't recheck directories recreated after the initial watch is setup. * tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename: Fix the endless loop triggered by the above issue. * tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/wait: Don't fail in the resource exhaustion case. * tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing: A new test for this failure mode which was until now just triggered on older buggy linux kernels which returned ENOSPC constantly from inotify_add_watch(). * NEWS: Mention the fix.
2010-10-11build: update gnulib to latest; to fix failing Solaris 5.11 testJim Meyering
2010-10-11maint: add new file: .mailmapJim Meyering
* .mailmap: Map git author names and email addresses to canonical/preferred form. This file is used e.g., by "git shortlog".

2010-10-07split: fix reporting of read errorsPádraig Brady
The bug was introduced with commit 23f6d41f, 19-02-2003. * src/split.c (bytes_split, lines_split, line_bytes_split): Correctly check the return from full_read(). * tests/misc/split-fail: Ensure split fails when it can't read its input. * NEWS: Mention the fix.
2010-10-06build: update gnulib to latest, for memmem/strstr fixJim Meyering
2010-10-06maint: describe coreutils' policy on copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
* README: Mention coreutils' long-standing policy on use of M-N ranges in copyright year lists. Requested by Richard Stallman.
2010-10-05build: complete the rename of get_dateEric Blake
* gnulib: Update to latest. * src/date.c (includes, batch_convert, main): Track rename. * src/touch.c (includes, get_reldate): Likewise. * doc/coreutils.texi (Top, Date input formats): Likewise. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Likewise. * doc/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Likewise. * doc/.gitignore: Likewise. * bootstrap: Synchronize from upstream.
2010-10-05stat: drop %C support when printing file system detailsEric Blake
* src/stat.c (print_statfs, usage): Drop %C, since it applies to files, not file systems. (out_file_context): Match style of other out_* functions. (print_stat): Update caller. * doc/coreutils.texi (stat invocation): Document %C. * NEWS: Document the change.
2010-10-05build: fix build on Solaris 10Eric Blake
* gnulib: Update to latest, for reduced -lgen scope. * bootstrap: Synchronize from upstream. Reported by Clemens Brogi, as bug #7142.
2010-10-05stat: adjust the printing of SELinux contextPádraig Brady
* src/stat.c (default_format): Don't print SELinux context when in file system (-f) mode, as the context is associated with the file, not the file system. Fix logic inversion, so that in terse mode, %C is included only when is_selinux_enabled and not vice versa.
2010-10-04tests: refactor the stat-birthtime test to use retry_delay_Pádraig Brady
* tests/misc/stat-birthtime: This recently added test fits the pattern of requiring a delay to pass, so get it to use retry_delay_()
2010-10-03maint: add a release prerequisite: check the NixOS/Hydra autobuilderJim Meyering
* README-release: Add a note to check the autobuilder.
2010-10-03build: update gnulib submodule to latestJim Meyering
2010-10-03maint: suppress a bogus used-uninitialized warning in tr.cJim Meyering
* src/tr.c (string2_extend): Insert an abort call to tell gcc that char_to_repeat is not used uninitialized.
2010-10-01tests: output --version of program under testEric Blake
This touches all new tests added since commit b062bbd9, when init.cfg was added. Older tests still exist that could use conversion, but we can address those later. * tests/sample-test: Restore hint for --version output. * tests/misc/stat-birthtime: Include --version if verbose. * tests/misc/tr-case-class: Likewise. * tests/misc/stat-mount: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-unique: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-benchmark-random: Likewise. Suggested by Jim Meyering.
2010-10-01stat: print SELinux context when availableEric Blake
* src/stat.c (default_format): Include context when present. * NEWS: Update blurb explaining the replacement for -Z.
2010-10-01stat: optimize and translate default format stringsEric Blake
Yes, this patch intentionally leaks the results of default_format(), since it is called only twice, and since the results are in scope until main() exits. Not worth the extra code to pacify valgrind. * src/stat.c (main): Hoist default format computation out of loop. (do_statfs, do_stat): Move default format generation... (default_format): ...into new function. Allocate the result in pieces, rather than repeating mostly-similar chunks. Allow translation of verbose format. Pass a second format to do_stat, for the one aspect of the default format that is conditional on file type. * NEWS: Document the translation aspect.
2010-10-01stat: print timestamps to full resolutionEric Blake
* src/stat.c (epoch_time): New function. (print_stat): Use it for %[WXYZ]. * NEWS: Document this. * tests/touch/60-seconds: Adjust test to match. * tests/misc/stat-birthtime: Likewise.
2010-10-01stat: support printing birthtimeEric Blake
* src/stat.c (print_stat): New %w and %W formats. (do_stat): Include %w in default format. (usage): Document new specifiers. * doc/coreutils.texi (stat invocation): Likewise. * NEWS: Likewise.
2010-10-01maint: update sample test templateEric Blake
* tests/sample-test: Recommend modern idiom.
2010-10-01maint: ensure the mbsalign module is C89 compatiblePádraig Brady
This module may be moved to gnulib at some stage, so keep it C89 compatible. * gl/lib/mbsalign.c (mbsalign): Declare variables at start of scope (ambsalign): Likewise * gl/lib/mbsalign.h: Remove trailing comma from enum Reported by Andrei Suhan
2010-09-30maint: update gnulibEric Blake
* gnulib: Update to latest. * doc/coreutils.texi (date): Reflect new module name. * doc/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Likewise. * doc/.gitignore: Likewise.
2010-09-30maint: update gnulibEric Blake
* gnulib: Update to latest. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Reflect new module name. * bootstrap: Resync from upstream.
2010-09-30maint: mention the du-exclude--vs--cycle-dir fixJim Meyering
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention the du-exclude--vs--cycle-dir fix. Reported by Graham Cobb in http://bugs.debian.org/598438, that bug was fixed by the 2010-07-24 commit, 77428214f, "du: tune, and fix some -L bugs with dangling or cyclic symlinks"

2010-09-29tr: fix various issues with case conversionPádraig Brady
This valid translation spec aborted: LC_ALL=en_US.iso-8859-1 tr '[:upper:]- ' '[:lower:]_' This invalid translation spec aborted: LC_ALL=en_US.iso-8859-1 tr '[:upper:] ' '[:lower:]' This was caused by commit 6efd1046, 05-01-2008, "Avoid tr case-conversion failure in some locales" This misaligned conversion spec was allowed: LC_ALL=C tr 'A-Y[:lower:]' 'a-z[:upper:]' This was caused by commit af5d0c36, 21-10-2007, "tr: do not reject an unmatched [:lower:] or [:upper:] in SET1" This misaligned spec was allowed by extending the class: LC_ALL=C tr '[:upper:] ' '[:lower:]' * src/tr.c (validate_case_classes): A new function to check alignment of case conversion classes. Also it adjusts the length of the sets so that locales with different numbers of upper and lower case characters, don't cause issues. (string2_extend): Disallow extending the case conversion class as in the above example. That is locale dependent and most likely not what the user wants. (validate): Do the simple test for "restricted" char classes earlier, so we don't redundantly do more expensive validation. (main): Remove the case class validation, and simplify. * tests/misc/tr-case-class: A new test to test the various alignment and locale issues, associated with case conversion. * tests/misc/tr: Move case conversion tests to new tr-case-class. * tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Mention the fixes.
2010-09-20build: update gnulib submodule to latestPaul Eggert
2010-09-20sort: destroy spin locks portablyPaul Eggert
* src/sort.c (sortlines, sort): Use pthread_spin_destroy when a spin lock is no longer used. This isn't needed on GNU/Linux or Solaris, but POSIX says it may free up resources on some platforms.
2010-09-20tests: fix a printf portability issuePádraig Brady
* tests/misc/sort-debug-keys: Don't depend on printf supporting \xhh format, which isn't supported by dash for example. Also change from double quoted strings to single quoted, when we don't need any variable interpolation.
