2012-08-26maint: stop using @acronym{...} in texinfo sourcesJim Meyering
* doc/coreutils.texi: Remove all uses of @acronym{...}, per recommendation by Karl Berry. * doc/perm.texi: Likewise. * cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Remove exemption, enabling the @acronym{-prohibiting syntax-check rule.
2012-08-22tests: correct print_ver_ arguments and add a rule to enforce thisBernhard Voelker
We use print_ver_ to run "PROG --version" for each program under test. Some tests have been derived from others, while the argument(s) to print_ver_ have not been adapted. Add a new cfg.mk rule to prohibit this. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_calls_print_ver_with_irrelevant_argument): New rule, to prohibit a test script from calling print_env_ for a program not actually used by that test. * tests/chown/basic: s/\(print_ver_\) chgrp/\1 chown/ * tests/cp/acl: s/\(print_ver_\) mv/\1 cp/ * tests/cp/capability: s/\(print_ver_\) ls/\1 cp/ * tests/cp/cp-parents: s/(print_ver_\) mv/\1 cp/ * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle: s/(print_ver_\) rm/\1 du/ * tests/misc/wc-parallel: s/(print_ver_\) md5sum/\1 wc/

2012-07-23tests: add a test for a previously fixed output format bug in joinPádraig Brady
Add a test and NEWS entry for a bug inadvertently fixed in a refactoring in commit v8.9-32-gd4db0cb * tests/misc/join (v2-format): Add a new test. * THANKS.in: Add the reporter. * NEWS: Mention the old bug. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Update. Reported-by: Jean-Pierre Tosoni
2012-07-20maint: adjust exemption to track renamed test scriptJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_file_system): Sync this exemption regexp to match renamed tests/df/df-P. This avoids a "make syntax-check" failure.
2012-07-15maint: remove unwarranted uses of strncpyJim Meyering
* src/pinky.c (print_entry): Remove unwarranted uses of strncpy. Instead, use stpcpy and stpncpy. * src/who.c (print_user): Likewise. * cfg.mk: Remove strncpy exemptions.
2012-07-03maint: add syntax-check rule to help avoid misuse of EXIT_FAILUREJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_some_programs_must_avoid_exit_failure): New rule, to help us avoid using EXIT_FAILURE in programs like sort, ls, nohup, timeout, env, etc. that use different exit codes in many cases.
2012-07-02maint: sc_prohibit_fail_0: update a stale commentPádraig Brady
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_fail_0): Following on from commit v8.0-79-g71c2f88, update the comment to match.
2012-06-30maint: avoid false-positive syntax-check failure due to fail=0 in .texiJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_prohibit_fail_0): Exempt all .texi files.
2012-06-22maint: suppress echoing of sc_THANKS_in_duplicates implementationPádraig Brady
* cfg.mk (sc_THANKS_in_duplicates): Suppress the echoing of these commands run during `make syntax-check`
2012-06-10maint: migrate strncpy-prohibiting rule to gnulibJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_strncpy): Remove rule. Now it's in gnulib.
2012-06-10maint: prohibit use of strncpyJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_strncpy): New syntax-check rule. Exempt pinky.c and who.c, at least for now.
2012-06-06maint: detect a new type of duplicate in THANKS.inJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_THANKS_in_duplicates): New rule.

2012-05-08maint: fix common spelling errorsKevin Lyda
These were identified using: https://github.com/lyda/misspell-check executed like: git ls-files | misspellings -f - * src/cat.c: Correct a spelling error. * src/comm.c: Likewise. * src/expr.c: Likewise. * src/pr.c: Likewise. * src/tac.c: Likewise. * src/test.c: Likewise. * src/ChangeLog-2005: Likewise. * src/ChangeLog-2007: Likewise. * src/NEWS: Likewise. * src/doc/coreutils.texi: Likewise. * src/lib/ChangeLog-2007: Likewise. * src/man/help2man: Likewise. * src/old/fileutils/ChangeLog-1997: Likewise. * src/old/fileutils/NEWS: Likewise. * src/old/sh-utils/ChangeLog.0: Likewise. * src/old/textutils/ChangeLog: Likewise. * src/tests/misc/comm: Likewise. * src/tests/misc/uniq: Likewise. * src/tests/mv/dir2dir: Likewise. * src/cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): update with `make update-NEWS-hash`
2012-05-02maint: prohibit an operator at end of lineJim Meyering
Many coding standards, including GNU's, advocate that when splitting a line near a binary operator, one should put the operator at the beginning of the continued line, rather than at the end of the preceding one. This is for readability: such operators are relatively important to readability, and they are more apparent at the beginning of a line than at the varying-column end of line, * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_operator_at_end_of_line): New rule. Exempt test.c and head.c.
2012-04-04tests: new syntax-check rule to prohibit use of `...` in tests/Jim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_backticks): New rule. Exempt 3 files.

2012-03-07maint: use an optimal-for-coreutils xz compression settingJim Meyering
* cfg.mk: Set XZ_OPT = -8e (determined empirically). This sacrifices 8 KiB of compressed tarball size for a 32-MiB decrease in the memory required during decompression. I.e., using -9e would shave off only 8 KiB from the tar.xz file, yet would force every decompression process to use 32 MiB more memory.
2012-01-27maint: make copyright statements more consistent; update gnulibJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (update-copyright-env): Add UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_FORCE=1 to rejoin some split lines, and UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=2 to make update-copyright use only one year range. * gnulib: Update to latest, for newer update-copyright script.
2012-01-22maint: quote 'like this' or "like this", not `like this'Paul Eggert
* doc/coreutils.texi (Formatting the file names): coreutils now quotes 'like this'. * man/help2man: * src/timeout.c (usage): Quote 'like this' in diagnostics. * HACKING, Makefile.am, NEWS, README, README-hacking, TODO, cfg.mk: * doc/Makefile.am, doc/coreutils.texi, m4/jm-macros.m4: * man/Makefile.am, man/help2man, src/Makefile.am, src/copy.h: * src/extract-magic, src/ls.c, src/pinky.c, src/pr.c, src/sort.c: * src/split.c, src/timeout.c, src/who.c, tests/dd/skip-seek-past-file: * tests/pr/pr-tests: Quote 'like this' in commentary. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Update due to changed old NEWS.
2012-01-11maint: adjust formatting of certain continued stringsJim Meyering
Add a rule to ding any source file that has a continued string with a word in the first column of the following line. Those tend to trigger malfunction in tools that try to map an arbitrary line number to an enclosing function name. Of course, very many strings do precisely this, *when they are part of the usage function*. So we exempt the body of each usage function. * src/dircolors.c (main): Separate a long, continued string into two separately-quoted parts. * src/od.c (decode_one_format): Likewise. (decode_one_format, main): Move a space from end of preceding line to the beginning of the continued line. * src/tr.c (unquote, string2_extend, validate): Likewise. * src/seq.c (main): Split in two and use string concatenation. * src/stat.c (default_format): Use a mix of techniques. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_continued_string_alpha_in_column_1): New rule. Exempt three files in src: system.h, od.c, printf.c.

2012-01-05tests: adjust setfacl usage to accommodate Solaris 10Jim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_short_facl_mode_spec): New rule. * tests/cp/acl: Extend setfacl mode spec to have length 3. * tests/ls/slink-acl: Likewise. * tests/mv/acl: Likewise. Report and analysis by Bruno Haible.
2012-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2011-11-29build: update gnulib for syntax-check improvementEric Blake
Commit 5b3e538 proved useful enough to migrate to gnulib after enhancing it to be more generic, which in turn pointed out that commit a2c811db missed an offender. * gnulib: Update to latest. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_reversed_compare_failure): Delete, now that gnulib provides it. * tests/ls/dangle: Fix last offender.
2011-11-27tests: add a syntax check for last week's global changeJim Meyering
Last week I made a global change, commit a2c811db, `tests: use "compare exp out", not "compare out exp"', but forgot to add a corresponding syntax check rule. Without that, it is far too easy to add a new test or to merge in an old one that would be non-conforming. Obviously this is only a heuristic, since it relies on the expected-output file to have a name that starts with "exp". * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_reversed_compare_failure): Prohibit use of compare with reversed arguments.
2011-11-13maint: avoid new syntax-check failure due to indentation with TABsJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (tbi_2): Exempt pre-applypatch, since it too is from git.
2011-11-12maint: adjust the URL that will appear in the generated announcementJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (url_dir_list): Use this http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/$(PACKAGE) for the first link listed in the generated announcement. announce-gen now provides the faster mirror link automatically.
2011-10-23maint: add git hook scriptsJim Meyering
We find it worthwhile to use consistent commit summary prefixes. To that end, the commit-msg script requires that all commits I make start with "$P: " (where $P is one of ~100 programs in coreutils) or one of a few other words, like gnulib tests maint doc build. It allows more than one word, so e.g., "cat tail head: " would also be accepted. Pádraig Brady wrote the initial version, with its 72-column and blank-if-present second line checks. The pre-commit script is the same as the git-supplied sample script, modulo a bug fix and the "exec 1>&2" redirection. * scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: New file. * scripts/git-hooks/pre-commit: New file. * scripts/git-hooks/applypatch-msg: New file. Verbatim from .sample. * cfg.mk: Exempt two of the new scripts from the no-leading-TABs check, since they're nearly verbatim from git, and we want to stay in sync. Exempt the commit-msg script from the no-"fail=0" check.

* NEWS: Add header line for next release. * .prev-version: Record previous version. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update.
2011-09-24maint: avoid new syntax-check failureJim Meyering
Pulling in the latest gnulib triggered a new false-positive syntax-check failure. * cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_prohibit_always-defined_macros): Exempt remove.c; its definitions of DT_UNKNOWN, DT_DIR and DT_LNK are harmless.

2011-08-08maint: prevent accidental future use of the old shell function nameJim Meyering
This is especially important for an error-handling shell function like this that is actually called only rarely. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_framework_failure): New rule, to prevent use of the old name.
2011-07-31maint: accommodate old-NEWS updateJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Update, to accommodate 6.12 addition. Without this change, "make syntax-check" would fail.
2011-07-08maint: add syntax-check rule to prohibit "."-terminated "SEE ALSO"Jim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_man_see_also_period): Prohibit a period at the end of the first line after a "SEE ALSO" marker in man/*.x. With this, we shouldn't have to make any more changes like those in today's commit, f2dabd68.
2011-06-25doc: clarify an improvement from coreutils-7.0Jim Meyering
* NEWS (7.0 Improvements): Mention the command: "ls -1U". * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Update.

2011-06-17tests: remove skip_test_ function; use new skip_ insteadJim Meyering
* tests/init.cfg (skip_test_): Remove function. Use skip_ in place of skip_test_ everywhere else. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_skip_): Remove rule. * tests/**: Use skip_, not skip_test_, everywhere.
2011-05-26maint: enforce cpp indentation policyJim Meyering
* cfg.mk (sc_preprocessor_indentation): New test, from libvirt. Exempt 3 files from new cppi test. * gl/lib/randread.c: Adjust cpp indentation to comply. * src/extent-scan.c (extent_need_sync): Likewise.
2011-05-25maint: accommodate gnulib's newer tight_scope ruleJim Meyering
* cfg.mk: Include via "-include", to accommodate new tight-scope rule. (sc_check-AUTHORS): Change the name of the rule in src/Makefile.am to _sc_check-AUTHORS, so it doesn't conflict with this one when this file is included into the sub-make's context. * src/Makefile.am (_sc_check-AUTHORS): Rename from sc_check-AUTHORS. * gnulib: Update to latest.
2011-05-19maint: correct typos involving misuse of "a" and "an"Jim Meyering
* NEWS: "an misleading" * src/expr.c: "a integer * src/ptx.c (find_occurs_in_text): "a end" * src/shred.c (do_wipefd): "a infinite" * src/sort.c (SUBTHREAD_LINES_HEURISTIC): "an dual-core" (compare_random): "an checksum" * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Update, since the typo was in old news.
