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.
2015-01-01maint: 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

2011-08-12pathchk: port to hosts where mbstate_t is replacedPaul Eggert
This problem was discovered when trying to build git coreutils on Solaris 8 sparcv9 with Sun C 5.8: the 3rd argument to mbrlen was of type int * (a pointer to the gnulib replacement mbstate_t) but the system mbrlen wants the system mbstate_t *. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add mbrlen. * src/pathchk.c (mbrlen, mbstate_t) [!(HAVE_MBRLEN && HAVE_MBSTATE_T)]: Remove macros, which are wrong now that gnulib supplies replacements for mbstate_t and mbrlen.
2011-07-02maint: use "const" and "pure" function attributes where possibleJim Meyering
* configure.ac (WARN_CFLAGS): Add -Wsuggest-attribute=const, -Wsuggest-attribute=pure and -Wsuggest-attribute=noreturn. (GNULIB_WARN_CFLAGS): But do not add them here... yet. * src/chown-core.h (chopt_free, uid_to_name): Add function attribute(s). * src/copy.c (is_ancestor, valid_options): Likewise. * src/copy.h (chown_failure_ok): Likewise. * src/dd.c (operand_matches, operand_is): Likewise. * src/df.c (selected_fstype, excluded_fstype): Likewise. * src/expr.c (null looks_like_integer): Likewise. * src/md5sum.c (hex_digits): Likewise. * src/od.c (get_lcm): Likewise. * src/pathchk.c (component_start, component_len): Likewise. * src/pinky.c (count_ampersands): Likewise. * src/pr.c (cols_ready_to_print): Likewise. * src/ptx.c (search_table): Likewise. * src/sort.c (find_unit_order): Likewise. * src/stty.c (mode_type_flag, string_to_baud, baud_to_value): Likewise. * src/system.h (gcd, lcm): Likewise. * src/tr.c (is_char_class_member, look_up_char_class): Likewise.

2011-05-08maint: remove -Wmissing-field-initializers workaroundsPádraig Brady
* configure.ac: Rather than disabling -Wmissing-field-initializers, use the fact that gnulib now disables it automatically when required (on versions of GCC older than 4.7). * src/system.h: Remove the no longer needed DECLARE_ZEROED_AGGREGATE. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/pathchk.c: Likewise. * src/shred.c: Likewise. * src/stty.c: Likewise. * src/wc.c: 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
2009-09-23maint: 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
2009-08-25global: 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 : $_'
2009-01-16pathchk: avoid -Wsign-compare warningsPádraig Brady
* src/pathchk.c: Compare pathconf limits to _signed_ MAX constants, as pathconf returns signed values.
2009-01-05doc: pathchk description enhancementsPádraig Brady
* doc/coreutils.texi (pathchk invocation): Mention pathchk checks validity (for current system) as well as portability. Say messages go to stderr, and reorder description of checks done for the -p option, to match what's done in code. * src/pathchk.c (usage): Mention pathchk checks name validity. Suggested clarifications were from Dan Jacobson.
2008-12-01avoid warnings about initialization of automatic aggregatesJim Meyering
* src/system.h (DZA_CONCAT0, DZA_CONCAT): New macros. (DECLARE_ZEROED_AGGREGATE): New macro. * src/ls.c (quote_name): Use it. * src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Use it. * src/shred.c (main): Use it. * src/stty.c (main): Use it. * src/wc.c (SUPPORT_OLD_MBRTOWC): Use it.
2008-06-16remove redundant const directivesJim Meyering
In 1463824d8e7f72c31f1d803d7cfe2b608ccafc5c, I added some missing "const" directives, as well as some new, redundant ones. This removes the redundant ones.

2005-01-10(PORTABILITY_OPTION): New constant.Paul Eggert
(longopts, usage, main, validate_file_name): Add support for new -P option. Reject empty file names (unless -p is not specified and the current system allows empty file names). Change --portability so that is now equivalent to -p -P. Don't test whether file name is too long, if it is known to exist. (no_leading_hyphen): New function.
2004-10-18(validate_file_name): Give a more descriptiveJim Meyering
diagnostic when pathconf fails. This also avoids an unwarranted warning from gcc-3.3.5 about a format not being a string literal.
2004-10-18(AUTHORS): Add self.Paul Eggert
Change "path" to "file name" whenever possible. Remove usage comment, as it was a duplication of the code or doc. Include <wchar.h> if available. (mbrlen, mbstate_t) [! (HAVE_MBRLEN && HAVE_MBSTATE_T)]: Define. (NEED_PATHCONF_WRAPPER, PATH_MAX, PATH_MAX_FOR, NAME_MAX, pathconf_wrapper, portable_chars, dir_ok): Remove. (NAME_MAX_MINIMUM, PATH_MAX_MINIMUM): New macros. (pathconf, _PC_NAME_MAX, _PC_PATH_MAX): Define if nonexistent. (portable_chars_only): New arg FILELEN. Don't assume ASCII; we might be on an EBCDIC host. Don't assume unibyte locale in diagnostic. (component_start, component_len): New functions. (validate_file_name): Renamed from validate_path. All uses changed. Pretty much a complete rewrite. Don't make copy of file arg. Always append trailing slash to pathconf arg, just in case it's a symlink (this is pure paranoia; we don't know of any hosts where the trailing slash is required). Use size_t instead of long int when possible. Avoid need to call pathconf in most practical cases. Don't use euidaccess several times to test searchability; just use lstat once. Reword diagnostic to put the (often very long) file names last.
2004-09-21(longopts): Add --help, --version.Paul Eggert
(main): Use longopts rather than parse_long_options. (main): Don't reorder arguments, so that we can check weird file names.
2004-08-03(validate-path, main, portable_chars_only): Use bool for booleans.Paul Eggert
(portable_chars_only): Use to_uchar rather than a cast.
2004-07-25pathchk.c: Include euidaccess.h.Paul Eggert
(dir_ok): Use euidaccess, not access.
2004-06-30Use "file system" rather than "filesystem" in comments.Jim Meyering
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
2003-11-05Cast NULL to `(char *)' in call to variadic function,Jim Meyering
parse_long_options, so that it works even on systems for which sizeof char* != sizeof int.
