2010-06-02touch: remove support for --file=REF_FILE optionJim Meyering
* src/touch.c (main): Remove support for the deprecated, long-named --file option, which is an alternate name for --reference (-r). That option was undocumented with the arrival of --reference, in the 1995-10-29 commit, 8b92864e1d. Since the 2009-02-09 commit, ed85df444a, use of --file has elicited a warning. Not only was this code due for removal, but the long-name-use-detecting code was buggy in that it would use a stale or uninitialized "long_idx", as reported by Robin H. Johnson in http://bugs.gentoo.org/322421. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it.
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
2009-10-23build: prohibit improper use of stat and lstatEric Blake
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_stat_macro_address): New rule. * src/ln.c (do_link): Adjust comment to avoid false positive. * src/stat.c (do_stat): Likewise. * src/touch.c (main): Likewise.
2009-10-17touch: add -h to change symlink timestamps, where supportedEric Blake
* src/touch.c (no_dereference): New flag variable. (longopts): Add -h/--no-dereference. (touch): Add symlink handling. (usage): Document new option. (main): Accept new option. * NEWS: Document it. * doc/coreutils.texi (touch invocation): Likewise. Also mention birthtime. * tests/touch/no-dereference: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Run it.
2009-10-10touch: optimize use of utimensEric Blake
* src/touch.c (main): Use UTIME_NOW rather than calling gettime. (touch): Use UTIME_OMIT rather than stat.
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 : $_'
2009-02-09touch: deprecate --file option: equivalent to --reference (-r)Jim Meyering
* src/touch.c: Mark long-undocumented --file for removal in 2010. (main): Warn upon use of --file.

In 1463824d8e7f72c31f1d803d7cfe2b608ccafc5c, I added some missing "const" directives, as well as some new, redundant ones. This removes the redundant ones.

2005-11-01(main): Pass PDS_PRE_2000 to posixtime.Paul Eggert
2005-09-26(touch): Handle "touch -c - >&-" by checking for EBADFPaul Eggert
and ENOSYS. Do not pass "-" to futimens; pass NULL instead. If close (STDIN_FILENO) fails, report the error separately instead of letting the 'close' pollute errno.
2005-09-25(touch): "touch -" now touches standard output.Paul Eggert
(usage): Document this.
2005-09-16Include stat-time.h, and use its functions instead of the obsoletePaul Eggert
TIMESPEC_NS macro.
2005-08-14Use one fewer file descriptor in a common case.Jim Meyering
Include "fd-reopen.h", rather than "fcntl--.h". Use fd_reopen rather than open.
2005-07-03Include fcntl--.h, not unistd-safer.h.Paul Eggert
(touch): Don't call fd_safer; no longer needed now that we include fcntl--.h.
2005-05-14Update FSF postal mail address.Jim Meyering
2005-05-14Update FSF postal mail address.Jim Meyering
2005-04-11Include unistd-safer.h.Paul Eggert
(touch): Use fd_safer.
2005-03-28(longopts, time_args): Use NULL, not `0'.Jim Meyering
2005-02-21(time): Remove obsolete decl.Paul Eggert
(main): Gettime now returns void.
2004-11-23(posix_date): Remove; not needed as a static var.Paul Eggert
All uses rewritten. (touch): Use new futimens function to operate more efficiently in some cases. Don't stat/fstat existing file when (!amtime_now && change_times == (CH_ATIME | CH_MTIME)); the old time stamps aren't needed in that case. (main): change_times is int, not bool. Simplify test for change_times.
2004-09-21Remove unused "case 0".Paul Eggert
2004-09-07(main): Fix POSIX-conformance bug: "touch --Paul Eggert
MMDDhhmm file" must be treated like "touch MMDDhhmm file" when conforming to pre-2001 POSIX.
2004-08-03(no_create, use_ref, posix_date, amtime_now,Paul Eggert
touch, main): Use bool for booleans. (main): Avoid integer overflow when given more than INT_MAX options.
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.
2004-06-09(usage): Improve wording in description of the --time=WORD option.Jim Meyering
2004-03-17(newtime): Now an array of two timespecs, oneJim Meyering
for access and one for modification. (ref_stats): Remove. (get_reldate): Use get_date's parameter profile. (touch, main): Adjust to above changes. (main): Work even if tm_year == INT_MAX (so long as long int is wider). Use gettime instead of gettimeofday, for new get_date signature.
2004-01-22(usage): Use EXIT_SUCCESS, not 0, for clarity.Jim Meyering
(err): Now a boolean int, not a counter, so that we don't have to worry about int overflow. All uses changed.
2004-01-15(flexible_date): Remove static var.Jim Meyering
(get_reldate): New function. (main): Use it, to implement this new behavior.
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.
2003-09-18revert previous changeJim Meyering
2003-09-18Update AUTHORS definition to be a comma-separated list of strings and/or updateJim Meyering

2003-08-09Include utimens.h.Jim Meyering
Set file timestamps with utimens, not utime.
2003-06-17(main): Call initialize_main.Jim Meyering
2003-06-16(O_NDELAY, O_NONBLOCK, O_NOCTTY, EISDIR): Remove definitions.Jim Meyering
Moved to system.h.
2003-06-12(touch): Call close only if necessary.Jim Meyering
2002-12-20(touch): Change the wording of a diagnostic soJim Meyering
that it makes sense both when the file exists and when it doesn't.
2002-10-03Mark translatable string with `N_ (...)'.Jim Meyering
