2016-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig Brady
Run "make update-copyright" and then... * gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted. * tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year. * bootstrap: Likewise. * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.
2015-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig Brady
Run "make update-copyright" and then... * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year. * tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: Fix case in copyright message, so that year is updated automatically in future.
2014-01-02maint: update all copyright year number rangesBernhard Voelker
Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this, perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test to make that one script use the single most recent year number.
2013-03-24build: fix issues when building with GMPPádraig Brady
* m4/gmp.m4 (cu_GMP): Add an extra check that gmp.h is available which is required on one Mac OS X 10.5.8 system at least, where the lib was available but the header wasn't. Also enable our GMP code on systems where GMP is not in a separate lib.

2012-10-08build: support older GMP versionsPádraig Brady
The new factor code introduced usage of mpz_inits() and mpz_clears(), which are only available since GMP >= 5, and will result in a compile error when missing. * m4/gmp.m4 (cu_GMP): Define HAVE_DECL_MPZ_INITS appropriately. * src/factor (mpz_inits): New function, defined where missing. (mpz_clears): Likewise.

Run "make update-copyright".
2011-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2010-01-01maint: update all FSF copyright year lists to include 2010Jim Meyering
Use this command: git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \ | xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \ build-aux/update-copyright
2009-10-20maint: issue warnings for more missing optional librariesPádraig Brady
* README-hacking: Suggest to use ./configure --quiet so that any warnings are easily noticed. * m4/gmp.m4 (cu_GMP): Warn if libgmp is not available. * m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Normalize the libcap warning. * m4/xattr.m4 (gl_FUNC_XATTR): Warn if libattr is not available.

2009-01-01improve M4 quotingJim Meyering
* configure.ac: Add quotes. * gl/m4/mgetgroups.m4 (gl_MGETGROUPS): Likewise. * m4/boottime.m4 (GNULIB_BOOT_TIME): Likewise. * m4/check-decl.m4 (gl_CHECK_DECLS): Likewise. * m4/gmp.m4 (cu_GMP): Likewise. * m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS, gl_CHECK_ALL_HEADERS): Likewise. (gl_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Likewise. * m4/lib-check.m4 (cu_LIB_CHECK): Likewise. * m4/stat-prog.m4 (cu_PREREQ_STAT_PROG): Likewise. FYI, I first ran this command: git ls-files | grep -E '\.(m4|ac)$' | xargs perl -pi \ -e 's/(AC_[A-Z_]+\()([^[()]+?)([,)])/$1\[$2]$3/g;' \ -e 's/(AC_[A-Z_]+\(\[[^,]+?\], )([^,[()]+?)([,)])/$1\[$2]$3/g;' \ -e 's/(AC_[A-Z_]+\((?:\[[^,]+?\], ){2})([^,[()]+?)([,)])/$1\[$2]$3/g' Then I updated serial numbers and copyright dates manually. Also, I manually added two pairs of quotes in boottime.m4.
2008-08-01factor arbitrarily large numbersJames Youngman
* m4/gmp.m4: New file; adds cu_GMP, which detects GNU MP. * configure.ac: Use cu_GMP. * src/Makefile.am: Link factor against libgmp if available. * src/factor.c: Use GNU MP if it is available. (emit_factor, emit_ul_factor, factor_using_division, factor_using_pollard_rho, extract_factors_multi, sort_and_print_factors, free_factors): new functions for the arbitrary-precision implementation, taken from an example in GNU MP. (factor_wheel): Renamed; was called factor. (print_factors_single): Renamed; was called print_factors. (print_factors): New function, chooses between the single- and arbitrary-precision algorithms according to availability of GNU MP and the length of the number to be factored. (usage, main): New options --bignum and --no-bignum. * coreutils.texi (factor invocation): Document new command-line options for the MP implementation and update the performance numbers to take into account the asymptotically faster algorithm. * TODO: Remove item about factoring large primes (it's done). * m4/gmp.m4: Add support for --without-gmp. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
