2016-02-23all: be less strict about usage if POSIX 2008Paul Eggert
sort, tail, and uniq now support traditional usage like 'sort +2' and 'tail +10' on systems conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2008 and later. * NEWS: Document this. * doc/coreutils.texi (Standards conformance, tail invocation) (sort invocation, uniq invocation, touch invocation): Document new behavior, or behavior's dependence on POSIX 1003.1-2001. * src/sort.c (struct keyfield.traditional_used): Rename from obsolete_used, since implementations are now allowed to support it. All uses changed. (main): Allow traditional usage if _POSIX2_VERSION is 200809. * src/tail.c (parse_obsolete_option): Distinguish between traditional usage (which POSIX 2008 and later allows) and obsolete (which it still does not). * src/uniq.c (strict_posix2): New function. (main): Allow traditional usage if _POSIX2_VERSION is 200809. * tests/misc/tail.pl: Test for new behavior.
2016-01-13head,tail: add the -z,--zero-terminated optionRichard Russon
* doc/coreutils.texi: Reference the option description. * src/head.c: Parameterize the delimiter character. * src/tail.c: Likewise. * tests/misc/head.pl: Add test case. * tests/misc/tail.pl: Likewise. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
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.
2015-01-01maint: 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.
2014-12-25tests: fix error message check on some systemsPádraig Brady
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/18129583 identified (on OS X) an incorrect test assumption in the previous commit. * gl/lib/xdectoint.c (__xnumtoint): Suppress the EINVAL error message as it's redundant in this context. * tests/misc/tail.pl: Suppress _optionally_ appended strerror messages. * tests/fmt/base.pl: Likewise. * tests/pr/pr-tests.pl: Likewise. * tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Likewise.
2014-12-19diagnose too-large numbers betterPádraig Brady
Following on from commit v8.23-82-gaddae94, consistently diagnose numbers that are too large, so as to distinguish from other errors, and make the limits obvious. * gl/modules/xdectoint: A new module implementing xdecto[iu]max(), which handles the common case of parsing a bounded integer and exiting with a diagnostic on error. * gl/lib/xdectoimax.c: The signed variant. * gl/lib/xdectoint.c: The parameterized implementation. * gl/lib/xdectoint.h: The interface. * gl/lib/xdectoumax.c: The unsigned variant. * bootstrap.conf: Reference the new module. * cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_require_config_h_first): Exclude the parameterized templates. * src/csplit.c: Output EOVERFLOW or ERANGE errors if appropriate. * src/fmt.c: Likewise. * src/fold.c: Likewise. * src/head.c: Likewise. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/nl.c: Likewise. * src/nproc.c: Likewise. * src/shred.c: Likewise. * src/shuf.c: Likewise. * src/stdbuf.c: Likewise. * src/stty.c: Likewise. * src/tail.c: Likewise. * src/truncate.c: Likewise. * src/split.c: Likewise. * src/pr.c: Likewise. * tests/pr/pr-tests.pl: Adjust to avoid matching errno diagnostic. * tests/fmt/base.pl: Likewise. * tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/shred-negative.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/tail.pl: Likewise. Also remove the redundant existing ERR_SUBST from test err-6. * tests/ls/hex-option.sh: Check HEX/OCT options. * tests/misc/shred-size.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/stty-row-col.sh: Likewise.
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.

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.
2012-08-30tests: add .sh and .pl suffixes to shell and perl tests, respectivelyStefano Lattarini
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.
