2015-03-26doc: clarify the date standard output formatsPádraig Brady
* src/date.c (usage): Use FMT rather than TIMESPEC as the parameter, since it's simpler to understand and can be better aligned. Give an example for the --iso-8601 output format. Adjust the example used for the 3 standard formats to be unambiguous with respect to day/mon ordering and use of leading zeros in the time. Reorder the options descriptions slightly, so that the 3 standards options are together. Indent the multi-line descriptions so that grouping is obvious. Remove a redundant description of the --rfc-3339 format, which is obvious in the existing example. Separate these 3 standards options to their own translatable string to simplify translation. Change 'date and time' to 'date/time' in the --iso-8601 description to be consistent with --rfc-3339 and to help avoid the implication that the time is always output or even output by default. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/20203

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.

2013-01-23maint: define usage note about mandatory args centrallyBernhard Voelker
Each program with at least one long option which is marked as 'required_argument' and which has also a short option for that option, should print a note about mandatory arguments.

2011-10-27date: reinstate the --iso-8601 (-I) optionJim Meyering

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
