2008-01-29Improve the man pages of --date=STRING for 'date' and 'touch'.Bob Proulx
* man/date.x: Add a compact description of the --date=STRING. * man/touch.x: Likewise. Reported by A. Costa in http://bugs.debian.org/363011
2008-01-29Avoid "make distcheck" failure: newly-created man/*.1 files not removedJim Meyering
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .version. (.version): New rule. (dist-hook): Don't create $(distdir)/.version here, now that it's being distributed. * man/Makefile.am (common_dep): Use ../.version, not ../VERSION. (../VERSION): Remove rule. * GNUmakefile (dummy): Create .version, not VERSION. Add an extra "...:= $(shell..." statement to ensure that .version exists even when the preceding code is not run. * .gitignore: Remove both .version and VERSION. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>
2008-01-26Emit "info coreutils 'PROG invocation'" into the man page,Jim Meyering
rather than just "info PROG". The latter would often fail or simply display the man page. * man/help2man: Change the template. Prompted by http://bugs.debian.org/399684
2008-01-26Ensure that each version string change propagates to man pages.Jim Meyering
* man/Makefile.am (common_dep): Don't depend on configure.ac for version changes. Instead, depend on ../VERSION. (../VERSION): New rule. * Makefile.am (DISTCLEANFILES): Define. * GNUmakefile: Update ./VERSION. * .gitignore: List VERSION. Reported by Sven Joachim.
2007-12-20Avoid spurious "make check" failures due to omitted programs.Jim Meyering
* man/Makefile.am (distcheck-hook): Make check rules dependents of this target, not of check-local, so that people aren't distracted by failures due to programs omitted via --enable-no-install-program=...
2007-11-05Use tighter regexps when performing name substitution.Jim Meyering
* man/Makefile.am (mapped_name): Add ^ and $$ anchors. Signed-off-by: Jim Meyering <meyering@redhat.com>

(mktemp_LDADD): Add $(LIB_GETHRXTIME). * man/mktemp.x: New file. * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add mktemp.1. (mktemp.1): New dependency. * man/.cvsignore: Add mktemp.1. * man/.gitignore: New file. * src/.cvsignore, src/.gitignore: Add mktemp. * tests/misc/mktemp: New file. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mktemp. * tests/Coreutils.pm (run_tests): Give the POST-test function access to stdout and stderr contents, so it can verify that the named-on-stdout file/dir does indeed exist and has proper permissions, etc. [po/ChangeLog] * POTFILES.in: Add src/mktemp.c.
2007-08-25Remove all .cvsignore files from version control.Jim Meyering
2007-07-23Update all copyright notices to use the newer form.Jim Meyering
2007-07-10Add support for enabling/disabling installation of specified programs.Jim Meyering
* 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. (optional_mans): Remove all uses. (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.
2007-07-10New program: archKarel Zak
* NEWS: Mention arch. * README: Add arch to the list of programs. * AUTHORS: Add arch. * src/uname.c: Include "uname.h". (PROGRAM_NAME): Handle arch, too. (ARCH_AUTHORS): Define. (uname_long_options, arch_long_options): Renamed and new globals. (usage): Handle arch-mode as well as uname-mode. (decode_switches): New function, extracted from main, to handle arch-mode as well as uname-mode. (main): Handle both modes. * src/uname-arch.c: New program, alias for "uname -m". * src/uname-uname.c: New file, default uname mode. * src/uname.h: New file, uname modes. * src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_PROGRAMS): Add arch. (uname_SOURCES, arch_SOURCES): Define. * man/arch.x: New file. * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add arch.1. (arch.1): New dependency. * tests/misc/arch: New test, compare "arch" with "uname -m" * configure.ac (OPTIONAL_BIN_PROGS): Add arch. (MAN): Add arch.1. * .x-sc_require_config_h: Exempt uname-arch.c and uname-uname.c from the always-include-<config.h> rule.

2007-02-24Avoid a shell syntax error, when building with an inadequate Perl.Jim Meyering
* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Add quotes around $(PERL) in case, since it can expand to "/.../missing perl".
2007-02-24* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Warn when unable to update a man page.Jim Meyering
Suggestion from Bruno Haible.
2007-02-24Handle better the combination of old Perl and a pre-c99 compiler.Bruno Haible

2006-12-09* man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Make help2man use $(PACKAGE_STRING) as theJim Meyering
"source". I.e. "GNU coreutils 6.7".

(MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add .kludge-stamp. * man/Makefile.am (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Typo $(dist_man_MANS) instead of $(man_MANS). 2006-10-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2006-08-22* aclocal.m4, config.hin, configure:Paul Eggert
Remove from CVS, since ./bootstrap generates them automatically. * .cvsignore: Add INSTALL, Makefile.in, *.cache, *.lineno, *.log. Remove more-specific entries. This catches files like configure.lineno. * man/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in. * src/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in. Remove .version, dir.c, install, mvdir, stamp-v, vdir.c, version.c. For .cvsignore file under the tests directory: Add Makefile.in. Sort entries if necessary. Remove *.I, *.E, *.X, *.O, *-tests, build-script, mk-script if they're never created in this directory. * build-aux/.cvsignore: New file. * doc/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in, coreutils.html, coreutils.pdf, coreutils.ps, coreutils.tps. Remove coreutils.cm (dunno what it is, but the makefile doesn't mention it). Remove coreutils.info as it is subsumed by coreutils.info*. * lib/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in, getdate.tab.h. Remove stat.c, sysexit.h. * m4/.cvsignore: Remove Makefile, dev-ino.m4, glibc2.m4, intdiv0.m4, inttypes-h.m4, inttypes-pri.m4, jm-glibc-io.m4, lcmessage.m4, lock.m4, printf-posix.m4, same-inode.m4, size_max.m4, uintmax_t.m4, ulonglong.m4, visibility.m4, xsize.m4. Many of these are put in automatically by ../bootstrap, but that's a bootstrap bug that I plan to fix shortly. * po/.cvsignore: More ../bootstrap-related fixes, plus remove old cruft. Add *.po, LINGUAS, Makevars. Remove *.cat, *.msg, cat-id-dbl.c, messages.mo, stamp-cat-id.
