* NEWS: Document this bug fix.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Read from a regular file, even if it
appears (stat.st_size == 0) to be empty. This reverts an
optimization introduced on 2005-11-23 for coreutils-6.0.
Otherwise, "cp /proc/cpuinfo /tmp" creates an empty file,
on e.g., linux-2.6.20.
* tests/cp/proc-zero-len: New file. Test for the above.
* tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add proc-zero-len.

and treat it as if it were escaped.
* src/tr.c (unquote): Considering that such usage would make GNU tr
from coreutils-5.2.1 and earlier *fail*, the least we can do now is
to warn about it. Solaris' tr ignores it.
* NEWS: Mention this.

* NEWS: Mention new configure-time options.
Mention that neither arch nor su is built/installed, by default.
* m4/include-exclude-prog.m4: New file.
* configure.ac: Use new macro, gl_ADD_PROG, rather than
manually appending to OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS and MAN.
Move the code that adds "df" to the list of programs to build from
m4/jm-macros into this file.
Use gl_INCLUDE_EXCLUDE_PROG, then handle special cases: ginstall, [.
(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT): AC_SUBST it. Used by man/Makefile.am.
* man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Remove from this list all man pages
corresponding to "bin" programs. Add $(MAN) instead.

(check-x-vs-1): Adapt to work even though arch and su are typically
no longer built (and neither are their .1 files).
* src/Makefile.am (install_su): Rename from INSTALL_SU, now that
INSTALL_SU has a different meaning. Use the new $(INSTALL_SU) value.

Here's a patch along the lines of
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/10849/focus=10857>.
It's a bit large since it changes the test cases to match the behavior,
and the test cases' file names depend on the behavior!
* NEWS: pr -F no longer suppresses the footer or the first two blank
lines in the header.
* doc/coreutils.texi (pr invocation): Likewise. Also, a too-short
page length implies -t, not -T.
* src/pr.c (lines_per_header, lines_per_footer): Now constants.
(init_parameters): Don't try to change them.
(print_header): Use the same header and footer format regardless of
wither form feeds are being used.
(usage): Adjust to above change when describing too-short page length.
Too-short page length impliesy -t, not -T.
* tests/pr/2-S_f-t_notab: Adjust to the fact that -F now affects
only formfeed handling; it does not change the header.
* tests/pr/2-Sf-t_notab: Likewise.
...
* tests/pr/3-5l17f-t: Remove, since it's been renamed to another
file whose name has a line count 7 larger,
reflecting the new line count needed for this behavior.
* tests/pr/3a3l8f-t: Likewise.
...
* tests/pr/w72l24f-ll: Likewise.

where it would not print the desired last number.
* doc/coreutils.texi (seq invocation): Remove advice about workaround
for seq off-by-one problem, since the bug is fixed now. Replace
it with more-generic advice about rounding errors.
* src/seq.c (long_double_format, print_numbers):
New arg NUMERIC_FORMAT. All uses changed.

--parents and symlinks. Close some race conditions possible when
the destination replaces a newly-created file with a symlink.
* NEWS: Document that 'cp --parents' no longer mishandles
symlinks in file name components of source.
* src/copy.c (HAVE_LCHOWN): Default to false.
(lchown) [!defined HAVE_LCHOWN]: Define to chown, for convenience.
* src/cp.c (lchown) [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Likewise.
* src/install.c (lchown [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Likewise.
* src/copy.c (set_owner): Use lchown instead of chown, for safety
in case the file got replaced by a symlink in the meantime.
* src/cp.c (re_protect): Likewise.
* src/install.c (change_attributes): Likewise.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use ordinary C rather than an #if.
* src/cp.c (lchown) [!HAVE_LCHOWN]: Define to chown, for convenience.
(struct dir_attr): Cache the entire struct stat of the directory,
rather than just its mode, so that we needn't stat the directory
twice (which can lead to races).
(re_protect): Don't use XSTAT as that's not appropriate in
this context (symlinks should be followed here). Instead, use
the cached stat value.
(make_dir_parents_private): Save dir's entire struct stat, not
just its mode.
* tests/cp/cp-parents: Add test to check against bug with
cp --parents and symlinks.
|
|
* NEWS: "cp" no longer considers a destination symlink to be the
same as the referenced file when copying links or making backups.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): When following a symlink, use the
followed name in later chown etc. requests, so that the created
file is affected, rather than the symlink. Use O_NOFOLLOW on
source when not dereferencing symlinks; this avoids a race.
Preserve errno correctly when doing multiple open attempts on the
destination.
(copy_internal): Follow destination symlinks only when copying a
regular file and only when we don't intend to remove or rename the
destination first, regardless of whether following source
symlinks; this is because since POSIX and tradition (e.g.,
FreeBSD) say we should ordinarily follow destination symlinks if
the system calls would ordinarily do so.
* src/copy.h (struct cp_options): Add comment that 'dereference'
is only for source files.
* src/cp.c (usage): Note that --derereference etc. are only for
source files.
(make_dir_parents_private): Follow symlinks, regardless of whether
--dereference is specified, because these are destination symlinks.
* tests/cp/same-file: Adjust tests to match revised behavior.
Filter out perror output since it might vary from host to host.
Use sed alone instead of also using echo.
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Document the behavior better when
the destination is a symlink. Clarify source versus destination
symlinks. Describe the new behavior for destination symlinks.
2007-06-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
* src/copy.c: Include "canonicalize.h".
(copy_reg): Use canonicalize_filename_mode to follow the symlink,
so that we can always open with O_EXCL and avoid a race.
|
|
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): When open fails with EEXIST, the destination
is lstat'able, and a symlink, call open again, but now without O_EXCL.
* tests/cp/thru-dangling: New file, to test for the above fix.
* tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add thru-dangling.
* THANKS: Add Michael McLagan.

* src/wc.c (wc): Don't issue an error message when mbrtowc
indicates that we have seen an invalid byte sequence. This

are likely not to be useful).
* NEWS: Mention the change.

* tests/stty/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add invalid.

about sscanf therein.

diagnostic, too.

* NEWS: Mention uniq's new option: --zero-terminated (-z).
