Usage example:
date --debug -d 'now + 3 days'
Print parsing and debugging information to stderr when using date's
-d/--date option.
See: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2016-01/msg00076.html
* src/date.c (main): Add '--debug' option, enable debugging
in gnulib's parse-datetime.y module.
* tests/misc/date.pl: Repeat tests with '--debug' enable, ensure
no regression.
* tests/misc/date-debug.sh: Test output of '--debug' option.
* tests/local.mk: Add above test.
* NEWS: Mention new option.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Likewise.

The problematic code computed a struct tm in one time zone, and
then printed it or converted it to a string in another. To be
portable the same time zone needs to be used for both operations.
On GNU platforms this is not an issue, but incorrect output can be
generated on System V style platforms like AIX where time zone
abbreviations are available only in the 'tzname' global variable.
Problem reported by Assaf Gordon in: http://bugs.gnu.org/23035
* NEWS: Document the bug.
* src/date.c (show_date):
* src/ls.c (long_time_expected_width, print_long_format):
* src/pr.c (init_header):
* src/stat.c (human_time): Use localtime_rz instead of localtime,
so that the time zone information is consistent for both localtime
and time-formatting functions like fprintftime and nstrftime. For
'stat' this change is mostly just a code cleanup but it also
causes stat to also print nanoseconds when printing time stamps
that are out of localtime range, as this is more consistent with
what other programs do. For programs other than 'stat' this fixes
bugs with time zone formats that use %Z.
* src/du.c, src/pr.c (localtz): New static var.
(main): Initialize it.
* src/du.c (show_date): New time zone argument, so that localtime
and fprintftime use the same time zone information. All callers
changed.
* tests/misc/time-style.sh: New file.
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add it.
* tests/misc/date.pl: Test alphabetic time zone abbreviations.

* tests/misc/date.pl: This test was dependent on perl
unconditionally calling the system localtime() as date(1) does.
However perl has its own configure checks in place to avoid buggy
localtime implementations. Therefore comment out this test
as a FIXME for now. This test was seen to fail on FreeBSD 10
where localtime() returns nonsense values instead of failing
for arguments >= 2^56.

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.
|
|
* src/date.c (main): Use %:z rather than %z with --iso-8601
as the standard states to consistently use extended format.
Note either format can be parsed by date.
* tests/misc/date.pl: Adjust accordingly.
* doc/coreutils.texi (du invocation): Clarify that "iso"
time styles are only similar to ISO-8601.
(ls invocation): Likewise.
(date invocation): Adjust the comment stating
that only --rfc-3339 output can be parsed by date(1).
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

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.
|
|
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
* gnulib: Update to incorporate the fix.
This is the only change in this gnulib update.
* tests/misc/date.pl: Add a test for this case.

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.

Not only this shrinks the size of the generated Makefile (from > 6300
lines to ~3000), but will allow further simplifications in future
changes.
* tests/Makefile.am (TEST_EXTENSIONS): Add '.sh' and '.pl'.
(PL_LOG_COMPILER, SH_LOG_COMPILER): New, still defined simply to
$(LOG_COMPILER) for the time being.
(TESTS, root_tests): Adjust as described.
* All tests: Rename as described.
