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.
2015-11-04all: avoid quoting file names when possiblePádraig Brady
Quote file names using the "shell-escape" or "shell-escape-always" methods, which quote as appropriate for most shells, and better support copy and paste of presented names. The "always" variant is used when the file name is embedded in an error message with surrounding spaces. * cfg.mk (sc_error_shell_quotes): A new syntax check rule to suggest quotef() where appropriate. (sc_error_shell_always_quotes): Likewise for quoteaf(). * src/system.h (quotef): A new define to apply shell quoting when needed. I.E. when shell character or ':' is present. (quoteaf): Likewise, but always quote. * src/*.c: Use quotef() and quoteaf() rather than quote() where appropriate. * tests/: Adjust accordingly.
2015-10-27all: quote string arguments in error messagesPádraig Brady
These strings are often file names or other user specified parameters, which can give confusing errors in the presence of unexpected characters for example. * cfg.mk (sc_error_quotes): A new syntax check rule. * src/*.c: Wrap error() string arguments with quote(). * tests/: Adjust accordingly. * NEWS: Mention the improvement.
2015-04-30doc: standardize messages about the '-' stdin FILEPádraig Brady
* src/system.h (emit_stdin_note): A new function, refactoring the usage note about the '-' FILE implying stdin. * src/base64.c (usage): Use the new function to emit the note in a standard location and with standard separation. * src/cat.c (usage): Likewise. * src/csplit.c (usage): Likewise. * src/cut.c (usage): Likewise. * src/expand.c (usage): Likewise. * src/fmt.c (usage): Likewise. * src/head.c (usage): Likewise. * src/md5sum.c (usage): Likewise. * src/nl.c (usage): Likewise. * src/od.c (usage): Likewise. * src/paste.c (usage): Likewise. * src/pr.c (usage): Likewise. * src/ptx.c (usage): Likewise. * src/shred.c (usage): Likewise. * src/shuf.c (usage): Likewise. * src/sort.c (usage): Likewise. * src/sum.c (usage): Likewise. * src/tac.c (usage): Likewise. * src/tail.c (usage): Likewise. * src/tsort.c (usage): Likewise. * src/unexpand.c (usage): Likewise. * src/wc.c (usage): Likewise. * src/join.c (usage): Adjust the separation used for the message referring to FILE1 or FILE2 as stdin. * src/comm.c (usage): Add a message using the same wording (translation) as used in join. * src/split.c (usage): Reword to using FILE rather than INPUT, allowing use of emit_stdin_note(). Also remove the mention of "fixed-size" pieces as this isn't now always the case. Fixes http://pad.lv/1450179
2015-01-31doc,maint: fix use of "i.e." in documentation and commentsBernhard Voelker
To align with all other places (and correct grammar), change all upper-case "I.E." to "I.e.". Furthermore, ensure that "i.e." is followed by a comma. Finally, ensure to use a double-space before "I.e.," at the beginning of a sentence. The following was used to change all offending uses (apart from old ChangeLog files): $ git grep -liF 'i.e.' \ | xargs sed -i \ -e 's/I\.E\./I.e./g' \ -e 's/\. \(I\.e\.\)/. \1/g' \ -e 's/\([Ii]\.e\.\)\( \)/\1,\2/g' \ -e 's/\([Ii]\.e\.\)$/\1,/g' * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_uppercase_id_est): Add new rule. (sc_ensure_double_space_after_dot_before_id_est): Likewise. (sc_ensure_comma_after_id_est): Likewise. (old_NEWS_hash): Refresh hash via "make update-NEWS-hash". * NEWS: Change use of "id est" abbreviation via the above command. * README: Likewise. * README-prereq: Likewise. * doc/coreutils.texi: Likewise. * gl/lib/rand-isaac.c: Likewise. * gl/lib/tempname.c.diff: Likewise. * man/stdbuf.x: Likewise. * src/cat.c: Likewise. * src/copy.c: Likewise. * src/copy.h: Likewise. * src/cp.c: Likewise. * src/cut.c: Likewise. * src/dd.c: Likewise. * src/df.c: Likewise. * src/fiemap.h: Likewise. * src/longlong.h: Likewise. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/numfmt.c: Likewise. * src/pr.c: Likewise. * src/shred.c: Likewise. * src/shuf.c: Likewise. * src/split.c: Likewise. * tests/Coreutils.pm: Likewise. * tests/df/df-symlink.sh: Likewise. * tests/df/skip-rootfs.sh: Likewise. * tests/init.sh: Likewise. * tests/ls/color-norm.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/basename.pl: Likewise. * tests/misc/ls-misc.pl: Likewise. * tests/misc/md5sum-bsd.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/shred-exact.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort.pl: Likewise. * tests/misc/stdbuf.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/tac-continue.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/r-root.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/symlink.sh: Likewise.
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.
2014-09-19doc: output correct --help references with --program-prefixPádraig Brady
* src/system.h (emit_ancillary_info): Take the invariant PROGRAM_NAME as a parameter, so that consistent references are made to online docs and texinfo nodes, when a --program-prefix is in place. Note the man pages don't need this fix as they're generated before the program prefix is used. * NEWS: Mention the improvements in references to online documentation.
2014-09-11cat: allow copying empty files to themselvesPaul Eggert
Problem reported by Vincent Lefevre in: http://bugs.gnu.org/18449 * src/cat.c (main): Allow copying an empty file to itself. * tests/misc/cat-self.sh: New test. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add it.

2009-09-23maint: Use logical rather than bitwise operators on boolsPádraig Brady
This is because bitwise operators are: - confusing and inconsistent in a boolean context - non short circuiting - brittle in C89 where bool can be an int (so > 1)
2009-09-21doc: mention the texinfo documentation in --helpPádraig Brady
* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C' (and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page. Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command. Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it. * man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the --help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man. Suggestion from C de-Avillez

2009-03-11cat,cp,mv,install,split: Set the minimum IO block size used to 32KiBPádraig Brady
This is following on from this change: [02c3dc9d 2008-03-06 cat: use larger buffer sizes ...] which increased the IO block size used by cat by 8 times, but also capped it at 32KiB. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. * src/system.h: Add a new io_blksize() function that returns the max of ST_BLKSIZE or 32KiB, as this was seen as a good value for a minimum block size to use to get good performance while minimizing system call overhead. * src/cat.c: Use it. * src/copy.c: ditto * src/split.c: ditto
2009-03-06cat: use larger buffer sizes to reduce read/write-syscall overheadJim Meyering
* src/cat.c (max): Remove definition. Use MAX from system.h instead. (compute_buffer_size): New function to compute the input and output buffer sizes, which are now set at 8 times st_blksize with a maximum of 32KiB. Previously the typical block sizes used were 1KiB for pipes and 4KiB for files, and now will be 8KiB and 32KiB respectively. (main): Use it. This change can double throughput on modern systems. For timings, see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/16040 Suggestion from Tzvi Rotshtein.

2006-06-08Ensure that cat works with any of the options, -A -v -e -E -T,Jim Meyering
when applied to files in /proc and /sys, even when the FIONREAD ioctl produces nonsensical results. Before this change, cat would produce no output (or truncated output), for some linux kernels. * src/cat.c (write_pending): New function, factored out of cat. (cat): Also interpret a negative ioctl/FIONREAD count as indicating that there are bytes to read. Some versions of linux-2.6.16 do that. Write any pending output before returning. Reported by Dan Jacobson in <http://bugs.debian.org/370583>. * NEWS: Mention this bug fix. * tests/misc/cat-proc: New file. Test for the above. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cat-proc.
