Running "mkdir dir; cp -rl dir dir" would create dir/dir/dir/...
rather than diagnosing the "copy-into-self" failure.
The easy fix would have been to revert this part of the change
[3ece0355 2008-11-09 cp: use far less memory in some cases]
that introduced the bug:
- remember_copied (dst_name, dst_sb.st_ino, dst_sb.st_dev);
+ if (!x->hard_link)
+ remember_copied (dst_name, dst_sb.st_ino, dst_sb.st_dev);
However, that would have induced the failure of the new cp/link-heap
test, due to the added memory pressure of recording 10k dev/ino pairs.
And besides, I liked that improvement and wanted to keep it.
Now that it's obvious recording the just-created-directory dev/ino
needn't depend on the setting of hard_link, I realized it is necessary
to record the pair only for the first directory created for each
source command-line argument.
I made that change, then noticed the new test, cp -rl a d d, would pass
when run once, yet output the into-self diagnostic twice. Also note
the side effect: it creates d/a and d/d. However, running that same
command a second time, now with the modified directory, would fail.
That turned out to be due to the fact that although the first into-self
failure was detected in copy_dir, that function would continue copying
other entries regardless -- and that would make it fail (eventually)
with the unwanted recursion.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): This function needed an indicator of
whether, for a give command line argument, it had already created its
first directory. If so, no more need to record dev/ino pairs. If this
is the first, then do record its pair. Hence, the new parameter.
(copy_dir, copy): Update callers.
(copy_dir): Upon any into-self failure, break out of the loop.
* tests/cp/into-self: Test for the above.

This change addresses a relatively unusual case: ls --color, with
a highlighted name being printed initially in the last row of a
terminal emulator (possibly followed by other lines of output) such
that it is wrapped onto the following line, as the terminal emulator
scrolls the output. That would cause the entire following line to
be highlighted, even if the name happened to use only one position.
The least-invasive patch would have made colorized output larger for
all uses. The approach taken below is more invasive, but limits the
increase in overhead to only those lines that are expected to wrap.
* src/ls.c (enum indicator_no): Add C_CLR_TO_EOL.
(indicator_name): Add "cl".
(color_indicator): Add default escape codes for "cl".
(print_long_format): Propagate width to print_name_with_quoting.
(print_name_with_quoting): Print new C_CLR_TO_EOL string if needed.
Return the width of what we're printing.
(print_file_name_and_frills): Propagate width.
(print_type_indicator): Return bool (aka width).
(print_many_per_line): Pass column position to print_* function.
(print_current_files): Likewise.
(print_horizontal): Likewise.
(print_with_commas): Likewise.
* src/dircolors.c (slack_codes): Add "CLRTOEOL".
(ls_codes): Add "cl".
* tests/ls/color-clear-to-eol: New file. Test for this fix.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add ls/color-clear-to-eol.
* THANKS: Update.

Thanks to Jan Engelhardt for helping me reproduce the problem.
Demonstrate with this in an 80-column xterm:
seq 200 # to start in the "bottom" row
touch zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.foo
env LS_COLORS='*.foo=0;31;42' ls -og --color=always
Before the fix, you'd see something like this:
(where the file name is printed in red on a green background,
and each "=" denotes a space on a green background)
...
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 Feb 5 11:31 zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\
zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.foo===================================================
After the patch, the trailing green spaces are gone:
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 Feb 5 11:31 zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\
zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.foo

Following are the before and after operations for seekable files,
for the various erroneous offsets handled by this patch:
skip beyond end of file
before: immediately exit(0);
after : immediately printf("cannot skip to specified offset"); exit(0);
skip > max file size
before: read whole file and exit(0);
after : immediately printf("cannot skip: Invalid argument"); exit(1);
seek > max file size
before: immediately printf("truncate error: EFBIG"); exit(1);
after : immediately printf("truncate error: EFBIG"); exit(1);
skip > OFF_T_MAX
before: read whole device/file and exit(0);
after : immediately printf("cannot skip:"); exit(1);
seek > OFF_T_MAX
before: immediately printf("truncate error: offset too large"); exit(1);
after : immediately printf("truncate error: offset too large"); exit(1);
skip > device size
before: read whole device and exit(0);
after : immediately printf("cannot skip: Invalid argument"); exit(1);
seek > device size
before: read whole device and printf("write error: ENOSPC"); exit(1);
after : immediately printf("cannot seek: Invalid argument"); exit(1);
* NEWS: Summarize this change in behavior.
* src/dd.c (skip): Add error checking for large seek/skip offsets on
seekable files, rather than deferring to using read() to advance offset.
(dd_copy): Print a warning if skip past EOF, as per FIXME comment.
* test/Makefile.am: Add 2 new tests.
* tests/dd/seek-skip-past-file: Add tests for first 3 cases above.

with period, mark URLs with <...>.
Based on a suggestion from Eric Blake.
Use fputs on a string without %s, not printf.

* src/system.h (emit_bug_reporting_address): Define away,
now, gnulib's version-etc.h also declares this function.

"General help..." links, like the new function does.

* src/timeout.c (apply_time_suffix): Change input parameter from

when the file name list is not too large. Before, wc would always read
the entire file name list into memory and *then* process each file name.
