2016-10-16all: use die() rather than error(EXIT_FAILURE)Pádraig Brady
die() has the advantage of being apparent to the compiler that it doesn't return, which will avoid warnings in some cases, and possibly generate better code. * cfg.mk (sc_die_EXIT_FAILURE): A new syntax check rule to catch any new uses of error (CONSTANT, ...);
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.
2015-01-01maint: 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.
2014-09-08maint: prefer 'return status;' to 'exit (status);' in 'main'Paul Eggert

(main): Use it. * src/logname.c, src/nohup.c, src/whoami.c: Use 'error' to simplify exit status in 'main' function. * src/yes.c (main): Use 'return' rather than 'error' to exit, so that GCC doesn't suggest ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
2014-01-02maint: update all copyright year number rangesBernhard Voelker
Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this, perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test to make that one script use the single most recent year number.

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
