2012-01-27maint: use single copyright year rangeJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2012-01-09maint: src/*.c: change remaining quotes (without embedded spaces)Jim Meyering
Run this (twice): git grep -E -l '`[^ ]+'\' src/*.c \ |xargs perl -pi -e 's/`([^ ]+'\'')/'\''$1/'
2012-01-09maint: prep for global quoting changes: handle irregular cases manuallyJim Meyering
* src/chroot.c (usage): Change ``...'' to '...', and describe the default more accurately (also adding quotes): s,/bin/sh,'/bin/sh -i', * src/join.c (usage): Change ` ...'' ' to "...''". * src/fmt.c (isopen): Change `' to '` in list of bytes, so that a subsequent change can safely perform the `...' to '...' conversion. * src/truncate.c (main): Tweak quoting in comments to use '...', not `...`, for consistency with the rest of comments in coreutils.
2012-01-07maint: use new emit_try_help in place of equivalent fprintfJim Meyering
Run this command: perl -0777 -pi -e \ 's/fprintf \(stderr, _\("Try `%s --help.*\n.*;/emit_try_help ();/m'\ src/*.c
2012-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2011-10-01build: accommodate missing setgroups on InterixMarkus Duft
Add a dummy, non-functional, always-successful replacement setgroups function, to keep the original code untouched and simple. * src/chroot.c (setgroups) [! HAVE_SETGROUPS]: Define.
2011-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2010-03-26nice,chroot: use more standard option parsingPádraig Brady
Related to the 2010-03-25 commit, 88d4b346, "timeout: use more standard option parsing". * src/nice.c (main): Don't use parse_long_options() which is a helper for commands that don't have any long options specific to them. * src/chroot.c (main): Likewise. * tests/misc/nice-fail: Remove a case that now passes due to us accepting multiple instances of the --help and --version options. * tests/misc/chroot-fail: Likewise.
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
2009-10-23chroot, env, nice, su: use EXIT_CANCELED for internal failureEric Blake
* src/chroot.c (main): Use EXIT_CANCELED, not EXIT_FAILURE. * src/env.c (main): Likewise. * src/nice.c (main): Likewise. * src/su.c (change_identity, main): Likewise. * doc/coreutils.texi (chroot invocation, env invocation) (nice invocation, su invocation): Document this. * NEWS: Likewise. * tests/misc/invalid-opt (exit_status): Adjust expected results. * tests/misc/help-version (expected_failure_status): Likewise.
2009-10-08maint: use X2NREALLOC in more placesEric Blake
* src/chroot.c (set_additional_groups): Use X2NREALLOC rather than x2nrealloc. * src/factor.c (emit_factor): Likewise. * src/setuidgid.c (main): Likewise.
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
2009-08-25global: convert indentation-TABs to spacesJim Meyering
Transformed via this shell code: t=$'\t' git ls-files \ | grep -vE '(^|/)((GNU)?[Mm]akefile|ChangeLog)|\.(am|mk)$' \ | grep -vE 'tests/pr/|help2man' \ | xargs grep -lE "^ *$t" \ | xargs perl -MText::Tabs -ni -le \ '$m=/^( *\t[ \t]*)(.*)/; print $m ? expand($1) . $2 : $_'
2009-06-13diag: say "failed to...", rather than "cannot..." in a few diagnosticsJim Meyering
* src/chroot.c (main): ...it's more precise. * src/nohup.c (main): Likewise. * src/setuidgid.c (main): Likewise. * src/timeout.c (main): Likewise.
2009-06-02chroot: make --groups= work without --userspec=; be more robustJim Meyering
* src/chroot.c (set_additional_groups): Add comments. Given an empty or all-comma group list, diagnose it and return nonzero. When more than one group is invalid, diagnose all of them, not just the first. (main): Honor --groups= also when --userspec= is not specified. Now that set_additional_groups consistently diagnoses its failures, don't diagnose it separately here. * tests/chroot/credentials: Do not invoke with an empty group list.
2009-06-02chroot: don't set bogus user-ID or group-ID for --u=U: or --u=:GJim Meyering
* src/chroot.c (main): Initialize both "uid" and "gid". To -1. This also allows one to set the user-ID or primary group-ID to 0, in case it's not that already. * tests/chroot/credentials: Test for the above.
2009-06-02chroot: set-*-ID failure must provoke nonzero exit before execvpJim Meyering
* src/chroot.c (main): Exit upon set-group-ID or set-user-ID failure.

* NEWS: Note chroot's new options. * doc/coreutils.texi: Document them. * src/chroot.c (main): Add support for --userspec and --groups. * tests/Makefile.am (root-tests): Add chroot/credentials. * tests/chroot/credentials: New file. * tests/test-lib.sh: Define NON_ROOT_GROUP to a default value.
2009-01-08option handling: make exceptions more consistentEric Blake
* doc/coreutils.texi (Common options): Not all utilities reject option abbreviations. * src/chroot.c (main): Report correct name on failure. * src/echo.c (usage): Clarify long option usage. * src/setuidgid.c (usage): Likewise. * src/hostid.c (usage): Condense.
2008-11-10avoid warnings about discarding "qualifiers from pointer target type"Jim Meyering
Use the new "bad_cast" function or an actual cast-to-"(char *)" to avoid warnings. * src/system.h (bad_cast): Define. * src/chown.c (main): * src/chroot.c (main): * src/date.c (main): * src/du.c (main): * src/expand.c (stdin_argv): * src/ls.c (decode_switches): * src/md5sum.c (main): * src/paste.c (main): * src/pr.c (col_sep_string, column_separator, line_separator, main): * src/sort.c (main): * src/split.c (main): * src/tail.c (main): * src/unexpand.c (stdin_argv): * src/yes.c (main):
2008-08-26use new global, "Version", rather than macro, VERSIONJim Meyering
With this change, a version-string update no longer forces recompilation of 100+ src/*.o files. * src/version.c (Version): New global. New file. * src/version.h: Declare it. * src/Makefile.am: Put it in a library that everyone links to. (noinst_LIBRARIES, libver_a_SOURCES): Define. (LDADD): Add libver.a. (sc_tight_scope): Use perl (was sed), and a more relaxed regexp to build the global-variable-name-recognizing regexp list. * src/system.h: Include "version.h". (case_GETOPT_VERSION_CHAR): Use Version rather than VERSION. * src/basename.c (main): Use Version rather than VERSION. * src/chroot.c (main): Likewise. * src/cksum.c (main): Likewise. * src/dd.c (main): Likewise. * src/dirname.c (main): Likewise. * src/echo.c (main): Likewise. * src/hostid.c (main): Likewise. * src/hostname.c (main): Likewise. * src/link.c (main): Likewise. * src/logname.c (main): Likewise. * src/nice.c (main): Likewise. * src/nohup.c (main): Likewise. * src/printenv.c (main): Likewise. * src/printf.c (main): Likewise. * src/pwd.c (main): Likewise. * src/setuidgid.c (main): Likewise. * src/sleep.c (main): Likewise. * src/sync.c (main): Likewise. * src/test.c (main): Likewise. * src/timeout.c (main): Likewise. * src/true.c (main): Likewise. * src/tsort.c (main): Likewise. * src/unlink.c (main): Likewise. * src/uptime.c (main): Likewise. * src/users.c (main): Likewise. * src/whoami.c (main): Likewise. * src/yes.c (main): Likewise.

* src/chroot.c (usage): Add "[ARG]" to synopsis. * src/cut.c (usage): Remove an inconsistent period in an option description. * src/du.c (usage): Remove superfluous argument after short option -X.

Use a single indent level for prettiness. * src/shred.c (usage): Normalize the synopsis. * src/stty.c (usage): Options -F and --file are alternatives, cannot both be used. * src/sum.c (usage): -r does not overrule -s; the last one counts. * src/uptime.c (usage): Remove inconsistent space from the synopsis. * src/users.c: Likewise.
2008-06-03use gnulib's progname moduleJim Meyering
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add progname. * src/*.c (program_name): Remove declaration. * (main): Call set_program_name rather than setting program_name. * src/nice.c (main): Cast program_name to "(char *)". * src/prog-fprintf.c: Include "system.h" * src/system.h: Include "progname.h". * maint.mk (sc_program_name): Adjust rule.
