2014-05-04maint: autotools-install: update tool version numbers to latestJim Meyering
* scripts/autotools-install (tarballs): Update to latest.
2014-03-13scripts: autotools-install: updateJim Meyering
* scripts/autotools-install: Update version numbers of latest automake and gettext packages.
2013-04-22scripts: tweak URLs in autotools-installJim Meyering
* scripts/autotools-install (tarballs): Use http:// URLs rather than ftp:// ones. The former are more likely to work, these days. Update URLs to point to the latest versions.
2013-02-18maint: choose editor in the commit-msg git hook the same way git doesStefano Lattarini
Git honours the GIT_EDITOR environment variable, the "core.editor" Git configuration variable, and the EDITOR environment variable (in that order, and defaulting to "vi" if none of them is set) to decide which editor should be invoked for the user when he has to or want to edit his commit message. However, our commit-msg hook, when invoking an editor on behalf of the user to allow him to fix a non-policy-complaint commit message, only honoured the EDITOR environment variable. To avoid potential annoying inconsistencies, we should really use the same logic used by Git in the selection of the editor. Luckily, we don't have to duplicate this logic (that would be brittle in the long term), as we can rely on the "git var" command, designed exactly to be used in situations like this. * scripts/git-hooks ($editor): Adjust definition.
2013-02-18maint: don't reset PATH in the commit-msg git hookStefano Lattarini
I have a custom 'editor' script in ~/bin, and a system-provided 'editor' program in /usr/bin (on Debian, this is a link set up the "debian alternatives" subsystem). My '$EDITOR' and '$GIT_EDITOR' variables are set simply to 'editor' (no absolute path), which I expect should point to my 'editor' script, since ~/bin precedes /usr/bin in my PATH definition. But the 'commit-msg' hook used in coreutils unconditionally resets its PATH to '/bin:/usr/bin', which causes it to call the "wrong" editor (the one in /usr/bin, not the one in ~/bin) when it makes me update a botched commit message. * scripts/git-hooks: Don't reset $ENV{PATH} to '/bin:/usr/bin', which was only done to avoid failure when enabling Perl's taint checking.
2013-02-14maint: prevent trailing period at first line of a commit messageBernhard Voelker
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg (bad_first_line): Return an error message if the first line of a commit message ends with a period.

2012-09-02scripts: autotools-install: allow user-specified make programStefano Lattarini
* scripts/autotools-install: Honor $MAKE. This might be useful on systems where the make implementation available in $PATH by default is limited (Solaris) or broken (HP-UX).
2012-09-02scripts: autotools-install: style and portability fixesStefano Lattarini
* scripts/autotools-install: Here.
2012-08-31scripts: fix the Signed-off-by:-prohibiting hook to actually workJim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Fix new test: we're searching a multi-line buffer, so add the //m modifier.
2012-08-31doc: escape double quotes in autotools-install --helpErik Auerswald
* scripts/autotools-install: Fix --help so that we actually print the double quotes around "make check", in two places.
2012-08-31scripts: add autotools-install, for those stuck with outdated toolsJim Meyering
* scripts/autotools-install: New script, so you can always build from git-cloned sources, even when they require bleeding edge m4, autoconf, automake, etc.
2012-08-30scripts: git commit message hook: prohibit use of "Signed-off-by:"Jim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Reject a commit log message that contains "Signed-off-by:".

* README: Omit "su" from list of programs. * src/su.c: Remove file. * src/Makefile.am: Remove su-related rules and variables. * tests/misc/su-fail: Remove test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Remove misc/su-fail. * tests/misc/invalid-opt: Remove su-related code. * src/.gitignore: Remove su. * man/su.x: Remove file. * man/Makefile.am (su.1): Remove rule. * po/POTFILES.in: Remove su.c from the list. * TODO: Remove ancient entry. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it. * doc/coreutils.texi: Remove su-related description. * AUTHORS: Remove su. * m4/lib-check.m4 (cu_LIB_CHECK): Remove file/macro. * configure.ac: Remove su-related code and sole use of cu_LIB_CHECK. * scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Remove su from this list, too.
2012-05-10scripts: encourage use of shorter "bugs.gnu.org" in bug URLsJim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Also ding debbugs.gnu.org URLs.
2012-01-06scripts: allow one-line summary to start with "[Vv]ersion \d"Jim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Do not reject the commit log message generated by our automated release-and-tag process. (bad_first_line): New function, extracted from... (check_msg): ... here. Use it.
2012-01-03realpath: a new program to print the resolved pathPádraig Brady
This program is compatible with other realpath(1) implementations, and also incorporates relpath like support, through the --relative options. The relpath support was suggested by Peng Yu, who also provided an initial implemenation of that functionality. * AUTHORS: Add my name. * NEWS: Mention the new command. * README: Likewise. * doc/coreutils.texi (realpath invocation): Add realpath info. * man/Makefile.am (realpath.1): Add dependency. * man/realpath.x: New template. * man/.gitignore: Ignore generated man page. * po/POTFILES.in: Add src/realpath.c. * src/.gitignore: Exclude realpath. * src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_PROGRAMS): Add realpath. * src/realpath.c: New file. * scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Add realpath to the list of prefixes. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/realpath. * tests/misc/realpath: New file.
2011-11-23scripts: commit-msg: tweak 72-column test to avoid a false-positiveJim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Don't warn about a line that is longer than 72 if it is a comment. Git-generated comments would occasionally trigger this.
2011-11-18scripts: rewrite git commit-msg hook in PerlJim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Rewrite in perl. This is still a work in progress in that it hard-codes coreutils- specific program names and policies that should be easy to selectively enable or disable without modifying the script.
2011-11-13maint: adjust git hook to allow "copy: ..." on line 1 of commit messageJim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Add "copy" to the list of valid command-name-like summary line prefixes.
2011-11-12maint: add rule to ensure that our commit hook copies are up to dateJim Meyering
* Makefile.am (check-git-hook-script-sync): New rule -- not used anywhere, because it depends on having very recent git. * scripts/git-hooks/pre-applypatch: New file.
2011-11-12maint: sync pre-commit script with git'sJim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/pre-commit (allownonascii): Remove double quotes around $(...) construct, to make this file identical to git's sample hook script.
2011-11-02scripts: reject references to long-form bug URLsJim Meyering
* scripts/git-hooks/commit-msg: Require the normalized/shortened form of bugzilla.redhat.com and bugs.gnu.org bug URLs.
2011-10-23maint: add git hook scriptsJim Meyering
We find it worthwhile to use consistent commit summary prefixes. To that end, the commit-msg script requires that all commits I make start with "$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.
