2016-11-19cp: improve status message when omitting directoriesPádraig Brady
* src/copy.h (cp_options): Add a new flag for install(1). * src/copy.c (copy_internal): For cp, also output remediation advice which also indicates why directories aren't copied by default. The message is unchanged for install(1). * src/cp.c (cp_option_init): Init install_mode to false. * src/mv.c (cp_option_init): Likewise. * src/install.c (cp_option_init): Init install_mode to true. * tests/install/basic-1.sh: Add a test case. * tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Adjust test case. Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/24958
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.
2015-05-28copy: prefer our hardlink to symlink emulation on OS X 10.10Pádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (CAN_HARDLINK_SYMLINKS): Don't enable use of linkat() on Darwin 14, as the gnulib fallback emulation there doesn't preserve ownership and timestamps etc. This fixes a test failure in tests/cp/link-symlink.sh * tests/cp/link-deref.sh: 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.
2014-03-05tests: avoid the :> construct which can hide errorsPádraig Brady
On most shells `:>file || framework_failure_` will not evaluate the framework_failure_ even if there was an error writing the file. shells which do evaluate the failure are ksh 93u+ and bash 4.2, while shells wich don't include bash 4.3, solaris, freebsd, dash. Furthermore this construct is problematic on Solaris 10 sh, which will try to optimize away a `:' command in a loop after the first iteration, even if it is redirected. * tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Remove the leading colon on redirections. * tests/cp/reflink-perm.sh: Likewise. * tests/id/zero.sh: Likewise. * tests/install/install-C.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/env.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/md5sum-bsd.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/runcon-no-reorder.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/partition-perm.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/r-root.sh: Likewise. * tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Likewise. * tests/split/line-bytes.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/retry.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/symlink.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/wait.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/read-only.sh: Likewise. + cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_colon_redirection): A new syntax check to avoid further instances of this creeping in.
2014-02-10cp: with --link always use linkat() if availablePádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): If linkat() is available it doesn't matter about the gnulib emulation provided, and thus the LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS should not have significance here. This was noticed on FreeBSD and the consequence is that cp --link will create hardlinks to symlinks there, rather than emulating with symlinks to symlinks. * tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Adjust the checks to cater for all cases where hardlinks to symlinks are supported.
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.
2013-12-13tests: restrict cp --link inode comparisons to compatible systemsPádraig Brady
* tests/cp/link-deref.sh: On systems were cp can't determine if gnulib linkat() emulation might create a symlink instead of a hardlink to a symlink, copy.c will create a symlink to the symlink so that it has more control over its metadata. Also even if the system supports this operation, the particular file system under test may not. So avoid the hardlinked symlink verification in these cases. This fixes a false failure on aix, solaris and freebsd.
2013-12-07tests: avoid problematic $(< file) shell constructPádraig Brady
* tests/cp/link-deref.sh: This was seen to cause an issue with dash v0.5.6 at least, so change to a simpler expression.
2013-11-07cp: fix --link regarding the dereferencing of symbolic linksGian Piero Carrubba
* src/copy.c (create_hard_link): Add a bool 'dereference' parameter, and pass AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW as 'flags' to linkat() when dereference is true. (should_dereference): Add new 'bool' function to determine if a file should be dereferenced or not. (copy_internal): Use the above new should_dereference() and remember its return value in a new local bool 'dereference' variable. Use that in all three calls to create_hard_link(). * src/cp.c (main): after parsing the options, if x.dereference is still DEFEF_UNDEFINED and the x.recursive is true, then only set x.dereference to DEREF_NEVER iff --link was not specified. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Mention that cp(1) does not follow symbolic links in the source when --link is specified. Likewise in the description of the -R option when used together with that option. * tests/cp/same-file.sh: Adapt the expected results for the -fl, the -bl and the -bfl tests. * tests/cp/link-deref.sh: Add a new test. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Reference the above new test. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the change.
