2005-05-14Update FSF postal mail address.Jim Meyering
2005-05-01mode_free -> freePaul Eggert
2005-04-28(main): Adjust to new modechange API.Paul Eggert
Also, free the mode_change object when done.
2005-04-22(main): Compile mode with MODE_MASK_ALL and initial umask.Paul Eggert
2004-09-21Remove unused "case 0".Paul Eggert
2004-06-26put \n in format string, not in actual diagnosticJim Meyering
2004-06-26(main): Add \n at the end of message output via fprintf.Jim Meyering
2004-06-21(main): Don't segfault when calculating theJim Meyering
expected number of operands for `mknod NAME'.
2004-06-21(main): Standardize on the diagnostics given when someone givesJim Meyering
too few operands ("missing operand after `xxx'") or too many operands ("extra operand `xxx'"). Include "quote.h" and/or "error.h" if it wasn't already being included.
2004-01-21(usage): Use EXIT_SUCCESS, not 0, for clarity.Jim Meyering
(main): Exit with status 1, not 4, if not implemented.
2003-10-18Most .c files (AUTHORS): Revert the WRITTEN_BY/AUTHORS changeJim Meyering
of 2003-09-19. Now, AUTHORS is a comma-separated list of strings. Update the call to parse_long_options so that `AUTHORS, NULL' are the last parameters. * src/true.c (main): Append NULL to version_etc argument list. * src/sys2.h (case_GETOPT_VERSION_CHAR): Likewise.
2003-09-18(WRITTEN_BY): Rename from AUTHORS.Jim Meyering
Begin each WRITTEN_BY string with `Written by ' and end it with `.'. Mark each WRITTEN_BY string as translatable.
2003-07-11(main): Enclose diagnostic in _(...).Jim Meyering
2003-06-17(main): Call initialize_main.Jim Meyering
2002-12-14(usage): Specify how major and minor mode numbers are interpreted.Jim Meyering
Remove now-redundant usage-specifying comment.
2002-08-31Change `exit (0)' to `exit (EXIT_SUCCESS)',Jim Meyering
`exit (1)' to `exit (EXIT_FAILURE)', and `usage (1)' to `usage (EXIT_FAILURE)'.
2002-08-30Change `error (1, ...' to `error (EXIT_FAILURE, ...'.Jim Meyering
2002-07-02(usage): Use the PACKAGE_BUGREPORT e-mail address, rather than hard-coding it.Jim Meyering
2001-12-02Use new macros, HELP_OPTION_DESCRIPTION and VERSION_OPTION_DESCRIPTIONJim Meyering
instead of hard-coding --help and --version descriptions.
2001-11-23(usage): Note that ``Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatoryJim Meyering
for short options too.''
2001-11-23Split usage strings so that --help and --versionJim Meyering
descriptions are alone in their own string.
2001-11-22(main): Add a literal format string to suppressJim Meyering
a warning from gcc's -Wformat-security.
2001-10-12(main): Tell what's wrong with `mknod c zero 1 5' ratherJim Meyering
than saying just `Try `./mknod --help' for more information.'.
2001-05-24(main): Remove quotes around %s.Jim Meyering
The argument is already quoted via the quote function.
2001-05-13(main): Check for NODEV device only if NODEV is defined.Jim Meyering
2001-05-13(main): Check for overflow when converting out of uintmax_t.Jim Meyering
Do not assume that major_t and minor_t are no wider than int. Check for makedev failures. Convert device numbers via uintmax_t, not unsigned long, just in case. Coalesce duplicate code in the block and character device cases.
2000-09-30(main): Rename local `symbolic_mode' to `specified_mode'.Jim Meyering
2000-09-30(main): Don't set the umask to 0 and hand-applyJim Meyering
the previously-set umask unconditionally. Do that only when a MODE has been specified. Otherwise, call mknod with the full creation mask (0777 or 0666) and let the kernel apply the umask. The difference shows up only on file systems with ACL support when the containing directory has a default ACL. Patch by Andreas Gruenbacher. (main): Rename local `symbolic_mode' to `specified_mode'. Also, when MODE is specified, call chmod to ensure that the permission bits are set as specified even when the containing directory has a default ACL.
2000-08-08(main): Invoke xalloc_die instead of printing our own message.Jim Meyering
2000-07-30Convert "`%s'" in format strings to "%s", and wrap eachJim Meyering
corresponding argument in a `quote (...)' call.
2000-07-09update copyright dateJim Meyering
2000-05-13Arrange to call close_stdout only upon exit.Jim Meyering
1999-04-26Use proper mode_t types and macros.Jim Meyering
Don't assume the traditional Unix values for mode bits.
1999-04-01(main): Qualify a char* with the `const' keyword.Jim Meyering
1999-03-31Don't include closeout.h or version-etc.h explicitly. Now, they're included ↵Jim Meyering
via sys2.h.
1999-03-26No longer include long-options.h.Jim Meyering
Include version-etc.h instead. (PROGRAM_NAME, AUTHORS): Define. [long_options]: Add entries for --help and --version. Remove parse_long_options call. (main) [getopt switch]: Add a case for each of --help and --version.
1999-03-04Include long-options.hJim Meyering
[long_options]: Remove the "help" and "version" entries. (main): Use parse_long_options, including author name(s). Remove the show_version and show_help blocks.
1999-02-16update copyright datesJim Meyering
1999-01-16(usage): Don't make it static so that it can be called from libfu.a by ↵Jim Meyering
xargmatch.
1998-09-19update bug-reporting addressJim Meyering
1998-01-04(main, usage): Check for write error to stdout before exiting.Jim Meyering
Include "closeout.h".

1997-02-01bracket bug address with <> and append a periodJim Meyering
1997-02-01Compare getopt_long return value against -1, not EOF. Use NULL, not '(int ↵Jim Meyering
*) 0' as last parameter in getopt_long call.
