2007-10-02Never copy through a symlink that cp has just created.Jim Meyering
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): When same-file detection requires 'stat'ing the destination file, also 'lstat' it and ensure that it wasn't the destination of a preceding copy operation. This bug was introduced on 2007-06-18. * tests/cp/abuse: New test for the above. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add abuse.
2007-09-30cp: do not abbreviate in --help output.Jim Meyering
* src/cp.c (usage): Don't abbreviate: s/=link/=links/. Reported by Géraud Meyer in <http://bugs.debian.org/444137>. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-09-30Test previous patch.Eric Blake

2007-09-27Avoid spurious test failure when SELinux stats "selinux/class".Jim Meyering
* tests/ls/stat-free-symlinks: Grep for more precise /^stat("x"/.
2007-09-27Move file-set and hash-triple modules to gnulib.Jim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove file-set, now that it's in gnulib, and the canonicalize module requires it there. * gl/lib/file-set.c, gl/lib/file-set.h, gl/modules/hash-triple: Remove. * gl/lib/hash-triple.c, gl/lib/hash-triple.h, gl/modules/file-set: Remove.

2007-09-27Make "Date input formats" easier to find in info filePádraig Brady
* doc/coreutils.texi (date invocation): `man date` gives all options for the date command except the description of the date input formats. Therefore it should be easy to browse to this info using `info date`. Signed-off-by: Pádraig Brady <P@draigBrady.com>
2007-09-25Use XOR, not OR to combine bits.Jim Meyering
* gl/lib/hash-triple.c (triple_hash): Use XOR (^), not OR (|), to combine the bits from hashing the name and those of the inode number. Add a few comments and remove out-of-context ones.
2007-09-24* NEWS: The recent rm-diagnostic fix also affects cross-partition "mv".Jim Meyering
2007-09-24copy.c: Remove definitions of factored-out functions.Jim Meyering
* src/copy.c: Include "file-set.h". (seen_file, record_file): Remove functions that I factored out on 2007-08-23.
2007-09-22Don't print the commands of a 10-line script that's run in each subdir.Jim Meyering
* tests/check.mk (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Add a leading "@", to reduce noise.
2007-09-22rm: give a sensible diagnostic when failing to remove a symlinkJim Meyering
On some systems (those with openat et al), when rm would fail to remove a symlink, it would fail with the misleading diagnostic, "Too many levels of symbolic links". * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. * src/remove.c (is_nondir_lstat): New function. (remove_entry): Use it to catch failed-to-remove symlink (and any other non-dir) here so that we don't fall through and try to treat it as directory, which -- with a symlink -- would provoke the bogus ELOOP failure. * tests/rm/fail-eacces: Add a test for the above. * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust offsets.
2007-09-22rm: fix a tiny, nearly inconsequential bug.Jim Meyering
Don't perform a "."-relative lstat, when the file in question may well not be in ".". Although this is a bug, a few attempts to exercise it on a linux-2.6.22 system failed. You probably need a pre-openat system to trigger the failure. The consequence of this bug would be a lower-quality diagnostic upon failed dir removal. * src/remove.c (is_dir_lstat): Add a parameter, fd_cwd. Use it instead of hard-coding AT_FDCWD. (remove_entry): Call is_dir_lstat with fd_cwd. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-09-22TODO: It'd be nice to add renice.Karl Berry
Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-09-21Avoid a test failure due to now-parallelized tests.Jim Meyering
* tests/du/two-args: Run "du .." from a sub-directory one level deeper.
2007-09-16tests/misc/tac-continue: Arrange to remove a temporary file.Jim Meyering
Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-09-16tests/check.mk (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Don't rely on the value of $(TESTS),Jim Meyering
so that "make check TESTS=test-name" works once again. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-09-16tests/CuTmpdir.pm: Use File::Find + chmod syscall, not chmod -R.Jim Meyering
Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-09-16Revamp most test scripts.Jim Meyering

Begin factoring "sample-test" out of test scripts. * tests/test-lib.sh: New file, to be sourced by all tests that were previously derived from the "sample-test" template. * tests/mkdtemp: New file. * tests/touch/dir-1: Use test-lib.sh. * tests/touch/empty-file: Likewise. * tests/touch/fail-diag: Likewise. * tests/touch/fifo: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-create-missing: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-rights: Likewise. Also, don't sleep. * tests/touch/not-owner: Likewise. * tests/touch/obsolescent: Likewise. * tests/touch/read-only: Likewise. * tests/touch/relative: Likewise. * tests/touch/Makefile.am: Include $(top_srcdir)/tests/check.mk, to get the parallel-"make check" bits. Move a slow test into tests/misc. * tests/check.mk: Wrapper. * tests/ls/time-1: Move this file to tests/misc/ls-time. * tests/misc/ls-time: New file. From tests/ls/time-1. * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Remove time-1. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add ls-time.
2007-09-08Accommodate gnulib's renaming: __fpending.h -> fpending.h.Jim Meyering
* lib/t-fpending.c: Include "fpending.h", not "__fpending.h".
2007-09-07chmod: don't ignore a dangling symlinkJim Meyering
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix. * src/chmod.c (process_file): Handle the case of FTS_SLNONE, i.e., give a diagnostic saying we cannot operate on such a file. * tests/chmod/thru-dangling: Compare new stderr output with expected.
2007-09-07Add a test: demonstrate that chmod ignores a dangling symlinkBob Proulx
* tests/chmod/thru-dangling: New test. Fails. * tests/chmod/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add thru-dangling.
2007-09-05Adapt to new SELinux behavior: "?" vs. new "unlabeled"Jim Meyering
* src/ls.c (gobble_file): Interpret the new "unlabeled" indicator from getfilecon/lgetfilecon the same way we interpret a negative return value: no security context. So we don't print the "+". * tests/selinux: Recognize that "unlabeled" means insufficient support for SELinux, just like "?".
2007-09-03Run autoconf manually, if needed to get an updated version string.Jim Meyering
* GNUmakefile: Don't actually touch configure.ac. That would make git-version-gen always print "...-dirty".
2007-09-03Don't change '-'s to '.'s in the string from git-describe.Jim Meyering
* build-aux/git-version-gen: Leave '-'s in the string from git-describe. Otherwise, s/-/./g would make it too hard to distinguish the base version number from the appended .DD suffixes. 2007-09-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-09-03README-hacking: Require rsync, rather than wget.Jim Meyering
2007-09-02* bootstrap (WGET_COMMAND): Remove code to set this variable.Jim Meyering
2007-09-02Ensure that $(VERSION) is up to date for dist-related targets.Jim Meyering
* GNUmakefile: Arrange to rerun autoconf, if the version reported by git-version-gen doesn't match $(VERSION), but only for dist targets. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-09-02bootstrap: uses rsync to download the .po filesJim Meyering
* bootstrap (po_download_command_format): New global. (download_po_files): Use rsync. (update_po_files): Don't remove .po files after download, so future rsync runs can take advantage of the copies.
2007-09-01* bootstrap (gnulib_tool): Make sha1sum check quietly.Jim Meyering
Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-09-01Ensure that snapshot version changes make it to groups, too.Jim Meyering
* src/Makefile.am (groups): Depend on Makefile.
2007-09-01Make groups-version executable,Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/groups-version: ... as it was in the patch.
2007-08-31Test yesterday's change to groups.Eric Blake
* tests/misc/groups-version: New test. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add groups-version.
2007-08-31Solve the unnecessary-.po-file-regeneration problem once and for all.Jim Meyering

2007-08-30Shorten the snapshot version string by removing the "g".Jim Meyering
* build-aux/git-version-gen: Remove git-describe's "g" that would always precede the abbreviated SHA1. Suggestion from Dmitry V. Levin.
2007-08-30Perform the s,rm,/bin/rm, fix-up properly. No more kludge.Jim Meyering
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove .kludge-stamp. (.kludge-stamp): Remove rule. Instead, ... (dist-hook): Do the job here, operating on the file in $(distdir). (rm_subst): Adjust regexp to match "rm -f rm$(EXEEXT)", not "rm -f rm". (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): s/+=/=/, now that this is the sole use. (dist-hook): Remove the legacy-from-cvs install-sh is-executable check. * .gitignore: Remove .kludge-stamp. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-08-30Make inter-release --version output more useful.Jim Meyering
Now, each snapshot has a version "number" like 6.9-219-g58ddd, which indicates that it is built using the 219th change set (in _some_ repository) following the "v6.9" tag, and that 58ddd is a prefix of the commit SHA1. * build-aux/git-version-gen: New file. * configure.ac: Run it to set the version. * Makefile.am (dist-hook): Arrange so that .version appears only in distribution tarballs, never in a checked-out repository. * .gitignore: Add .version here, too. Just in case. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2007-08-30* src/.gitignore: Ignore *.exe for platforms with non-empty $(EXEEXT).Eric Blake
2007-08-30Use PACKAGE_NAME instead of GNU_PACKAGE.Eric Blake

2007-08-29Ensure that TMPDIR is valid. Otherwise, it would cause test failures.Jim Meyering
* tests/misc/tty-eof: Set TMPDIR=. * tests/misc/sort-compress: Likewise.
2007-08-29Use EXIT_FAILURE, not EXIT_FAIL, now that EXIT_FAILURE is always 1.Jim Meyering
* src/system.h (EXIT_FAIL): Remove definition. * src/chroot.c (main): EXIT_FAIL -> EXIT_FAILURE. * src/env.c (main): Likewise. * src/nice.c (main): Likewise. * src/su.c (change_identity, main): Likewise. * src/tty.c (main): Likewise. Suggestion from Eric Blake.

2007-08-28By default, do not install hostname anymore; no kidding, this time.Jim Meyering
* src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_PROGRAMS): Remove hostname from this list, now that it's no longer being installed by default. This should have been part of the 2007-08-21 change. (check-duplicate-no-install): New rule to ensure this doesn't happen again. (check): Depend on it.
