* src/copy.c (utimensat_if_possible): New function.
(copy_internal): Remove variable, "preserve_metadata".
Replace with "dest_is_symlink". That covers all cases but one:
the one in which cp --link has created hard links to non-directories.
In that case, there is no need to update attributes of the links.
Use utimensat_if_possible, to preserve timestamps of symlinks.
* NEWS (New features): Mention this.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp/preserve-slink-time.
* tests/cp/preserve-slink-time: New file.
* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Test for utimensat.
Reported in http://bugzilla.redhat.com/230866

|
* m4/jm-macros.m4: Pull in SELinux libraries while checking for
matchpathcon_init_prefix (). Emit configure warning when not found
with SELinux enabled.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
The bug was introduced in coreutils-7.0 via commit 0647f3eb, 2008-06-02,
"accommodate older SELinux which lacks matchpathcon_init_prefix".
|
|
* gnulib: Update submodule to get latest maint.mk.
* Makefile.am (update-copyright): Remove rule; now it's in maint.mk.
* m4/check-decl.m4: Update sole remaining copyright year list.

The commit, 5ef90695, 2009-07-29, "maint: move update-copyright
to gnulib" recorded a local-only commit.
Reported by Pádraig Brady.

* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): The fractional
part of the delay was 1000 times too large.

timeout happens for this case.
|
|
* tests/tail-2/pid: Ensure tail exits successfully when PID dies.
|
|

watched process dies, exit with status EXIT_SUCCESS, rather than
falling through to an EXIT_FAILURE.

* tests/sort-time/README: Likewise.

Correct the exclusion rule so that it also excludes ChangeLog
and COPYING files that are not in the top level directory.
|
|
* build-aux/update-copyright: ... and revert-for-now the
change that made this script invoke localtime only once.
|
|
* build-aux/update-copyright: Handle cases in which the final
year number and copyright holder are on separate lines.
Prompted by a report from Joel E. Denny.
Also, do not invoke localtime for each line we process.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi: Move the "SELinux context" section
down below the "System context" nodes so that the HTML
index is generated correctly. Also some extraneous and missing
'.' characters were corrected in the index.
Reported by Benno Schulenberg.
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): When a PID is specified, use
select to block for no more than sleep_interval seconds at a time,
and check for process death upon timeout.
(main): Adapt to new tail_forever_inotify interface.
|
|
* tests/misc/ls-misc (multi-arg-U1): New test.
|
|

Reported by Julian Bradfield.

|
* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Add an example showing how
to sort data not directly supported by the sort command.
|

and also mention it in the readlink description so people
searching for that functionality can easily make the connection.
|
|
* man/Makefile.am (check-x-vs-1): Using a fixed-name temporary file
is better than one ending in -$$, because many -$$-suffixed files
may accumulate over time.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (readlink invocation): Update menus.
Add @cindex entries.
|
|
* src/readlink.c (usage): Adjust one-line summary.
* man/readlink.x: Likewise.
Suggested by Kamil Dudka.

Mention that a bit of prose can be welcome.
|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Declare "len" to be of type
size_t, not ssize_t, since the former is what safe_read returns.
|
|
* tests/cp/link-heap: Increase address space limit from 14000KB
to 16000KB, to avoid failure with Debian unstable's libc6-dev-2.9-19
|
|
* configure.ac: Do not enable -Wstack-protector.
Otherwise, at least df.c would provoke a warning.
|
|
* src/copy.c (copy_attr_error): remove a redundant expression
added in commit e0cf592f, 2009-04-27, "factor out test for errno ...".
|

(tail_forever, tail_forever_inotify, main): Likewise.
|

|
|
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Handle the special case in which
an old inotify watcher returns 0. Affects kernels in [2.6.13, 2.6.21).
|
|
* tests/tail-2/wait: Rename file from not_accessible to unreadable,
since all the test cares about is readability.
|
|
* tests/tail-2/wait: Ensure that the unreadable file really is not
readable before trying to run "tail -f" on it.
|
|
* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Mention in the description
of -b, that the locale can also affect whether blanks are significant.
Update the list of ordering options for a --key that cause it
to not inherit any global ordering options.
