2016-01-13mv: fix data loss with repeated source dir and same destinationPádraig Brady
commit v8.23-31-g90aa291 failed to consider this case, where the previous rename has failed, thus causing the following to remove the specified directory: mv dir dir dir * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Assume this rename attempt has succeeded, as a previous failure will already have been handled, and we don't want to remove the source directory in this case. * tests/cp/duplicate-sources.sh: Consolidate this test file to... * tests/mv/dup-source.sh: ...here. Add test cases for same source and dest. * tests/local.mk: Remove the consolidated test. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Reported at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1297464
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.
2015-11-10tests: ensure programs are built before testingPádraig Brady
programs may not be built due to missing system dependencies, or any program can be excluded at configure time with --enable-no-install-program. So ensure we're not testing the system versions in these cases. * init.cfg (print_ver_): Call require_built_ first. * tests/misc/tty-eof.pl: Skip programs not built. * tests/Coreutils.pm (run_tests): Likewise. * tests/misc/ls-misc.pl: Use 'env test' rather than abs path. * tests/misc/test-diag.pl: Likewise. * tests/local.mk: Adjust include order for dependencies. * tests/misc/arch.sh: Remove redundant calls to require_built_. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/groups-dash.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/groups-version.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/stdbuf.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/acl.sh: Remove problematic call to print_ver_ [gs]etfacl. * tests/mv/acl.sh: Likewise. * cfg.mk (sc_env_test_dependencies): A new syntax check to enforce specifying dependencies with print_ver_ for programs specified through the env command. * du/bigtime.sh: Add new print_ver_ dependencies. * du/max-depth.sh: Likewise. * dd/ascii.sh: Likewise. * tests/ls/capability.sh: Likewise. * tests/ls/root-rel-symlink-color.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/readlink-fp-loop.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-debug-keys.sh: Likewise. * tests/readlink/can-e.sh: Likewise. * tests/readlink/can-f.sh: Likewise. * tests/readlink/can-m.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-race2.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-create-missing.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-dereference.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printenv.sh: Tweak to avoid syntax check trigger. * tests/misc/help-version.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/yes.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printf-quote.sh: Use previously unused $prog. * configure.ac (EXTRA_MANS): Add $gl_no_install_prog to the list so that check-x-vs-1 syntax check is satisfied.
2015-11-10maint: use standard spacing in shebang line in testsPádraig Brady
It's better to be consistent even though spacing is insignificant: http://www.in-ulm.de/~mascheck/various/shebang/#blankrequired

2015-05-11tests: cleanup background processes upon interruptionPádraig Brady
Reap background processes so that: - Stray processes aren't left on the system - Files aren't held open causing deletion issues on NFS - Partitions used to run the tests from can be unmounted * tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing.sh: Add the `kill && wait` of the background $pid(s) to cleanup_(). * tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/f-vs-rename.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/append-only.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/assert-2.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/assert.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/flush-initial.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse2.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate-resources.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-rotate.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/pid.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/pipe-f2.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/retry.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/symlink.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/tail-n0f.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/wait.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/existing-perm-race.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/file-perm-race.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/parent-perm-race.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/sparse-to-pipe.sh: Likewise. * tests/dd/stats.sh: Likewise. * tests/du/move-dir-while-traversing.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/cat-buf.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/help-version.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printf-surprise.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-compress-proc.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-spinlock-abuse.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/stdbuf.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/tac-continue.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/timeout-group.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/i-3.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/dangling-symlink.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/isatty.sh: Likewise. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_background_without_cleanup_): A new syntax-check to ensure cleanup_() is defined when background tasks are created in a test.
2015-01-14tests: add extra protection against unexpected exitsPádraig Brady
Many tests use `program ... && fail=1` to ensure expected error situations are indicated. However that would mask an unexpected exit (like a crash). Therefore explicitly check the expected exit code. Note where error messages are also verified, the extra protection is not added. * tests/init.sh (returns_): A new helper function to check the return code of a command, and used throughout the tests. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_and_fail_1): Add a syntax check to avoid new instances of this issue.
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.
2014-11-22tests: add a case verifying mv on case insensitive file systemsPádraig Brady
* NEWS: Update the recent entry to also mention the avoidance of incorrectly unlinking a multi-hardlinked "source" file when presented with source and dest that only differ in case. * src/copy.c (same_file_ok): Mention the case issue with same_name(). * tests/mv/hardlink-case.sh: Test the issue on HFS+. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test case. * tests/mv/vfat: Remove an old related but unused test case.
2014-11-21mv: fail when moving a file to a hardlinkBoris Ranto
We may run into a race condition if we treat hard links to the same file as distinct files. If we do 'mv a b' and 'mv b a' in parallel, both a and b can disappear from the file system. The reason is that in this case the unlink on src is called and the system calls can end up being run in the order where unlink(a) and unlink(b) are the last two system calls. Therefore exit with an error code so that we avoid the potential data loss. * src/copy.c (same_file_ok): Don't set unlink_src that was used by mv, and return false for two hardlinks to a file in move_mode. *src/copy.c (copy_internal): No longer honor the unlink_src option, used only by mv. NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. * tests/cp/same-file.sh: Augment to cover the `cp -a hlsl1 sl1` case. * tests/mv/hard-verbose.sh: Remove no longer needed test. * tests/local.mk: Remove the reference to hard-verbose.sh. * tests/mv/hard-4.sh: Adjust so we fail in this case. * tests/mv/i-4.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/symlink-onto-hardlink-to-self.sh: Likewise.
2014-08-01chroot: perform chdir("/") again unless new --skip-chdir is specifiedBernhard Voelker
Since commit v8.22-94-g99960ee, chroot(1) skips the chroot(2) syscall for "/" arguments (and synonyms). The problem is that it also skips the following chdir("/") call in that case. The latter breaks existing scripts which expect "/" to be the working directory inside the chroot. While the first part of the change - i.e., skipping chroot("/") - is okay for consistency with systems where it might succeed for a non-root user, the second part might be malicious, e.g. cd /home/user && chroot '/' bin/foo In the "best" case, chroot(1) could not execute 'bin/foo' with ENOENT, but in the worst case, chroot(1) would execute '/home/user/bin/foo' in the case that exists - instead of '/bin/foo'. Revert that second part of the patch, i.e., perform the chdir("/) in the common case again - unless the new --skip-chdir option is specified. Restrict this new option to the case of "/" arguments. * src/chroot.c (SKIP_CHDIR): Add enum. (long_opts): Add entry for the new --skip-chdir option. (usage): Add --skip-chdir option, and while at it, move the other to options into alphabetical order. (main): Accept the above new option, allowing it only in the case when NEWROOT is the old "/". Move down the chdir() call after the if-clause to ensure it is run in any case - unless --skip-chdir is specified. Add a 'newroot' variable for the new root directory as it is used in a couple of places now. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Invert the last tests which check the working directory of the execvp()ed program when a "/"-like argument was passed: now expect it to be "/" - unless --skip-chdir is given. * doc/coreutils.texi (chroot invocation): Document the new option. Document that chroot(1) usually calls chdir("/") unless the new --skip-chdir option is specified. Sort options. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the fix. (New features): Mention the new option. * init.cfg (nonroot_has_perm_): Add chroot's new --skip-chdir option. * tests/cp/preserve-gid.sh (t1): Likewise. * tests/cp/special-bits.sh: Likewise. * tests/id/setgid.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/truncate-owned-by-other.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-2eperm.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/no-give-up.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other.sh: Likewise. Reported by Andreas Schwab in http://bugs.gnu.org/18062
2014-05-21tests: use chroot --user rather than internal setuidgid toolPádraig Brady
* init.cfg (require_root_): Adjust to use chroot, and make `require_built_ chroot` implicit when chroot used in the test. * po/POTFILES.in: Remove reference to setuidgid tool. * src/.gitignore: Likewise. * src/local.mk: Likewise. * src/setuidgid.c: Remove. * tests/cp/preserve-gid.sh: s/setuidgid/chroot --user/. * tests/cp/special-bits.sh: Likewise. * tests/id/setgid.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/truncate-owned-by-other.sh * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-2eperm.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/no-give-up.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Skip if chroot not built.
2014-05-07tests: improve diagnostics when asserting empty filesPádraig Brady
* tests/chmod/c-option.sh: Use `compare /dev/null ... || fail=1` rather than `test -s ... && fail=1`, so that the file contents are output, thus improving diagnostics for failing tests. * tests/cp/acl.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/cp-a-selinux.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/cp-mv-enotsup-xattr.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/reflink-perm.sh: Likewise. * tests/dd/misc.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/env-null.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/env.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/nice.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/nohup.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printenv.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/xattr.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/update.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/deep-2.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/read-only.sh: Likewise. * tests/split/r-chunk.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/follow-stdin.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/inotify-race.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/wait.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/no-dereference.sh: Likewise. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_empty:): New syntax-check. * tests/cp/proc-zero-len.sh: Adjust to avoid false syntax-check failure. * tests/cp/proc-zero-len.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/part-symlink.sh: Likewise. * tests/tail-2/infloop-1.sh: Likewise.
2014-03-26mv: fix issues with previous prompt adjustmentsPádraig Brady
* src/copy.c (overwrite_ok): Fix the gettext calls so that the second string is tagged for translation. Display the correct "replace ..." prompt when in move_mode. * tests/mv/i-3.sh: Display the output on failure to ease debugging.
2014-03-24cp: improve quality of overwrite promptPaul Eggert
* src/copy.c (overwrite_prompt): New arg X. All callers changed. Use X to improve the quality of the prompt (Bug#17087). * tests/mv/i-2.sh, tests/mv/i-3.sh: Change test to match new prompt.
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.

2012-09-05build: don't use recursive make for tests/ subdirectoryStefano Lattarini
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove 'tests'. (include): The '$(top_srcdir)/tests/local.mk' file. (check-root): Remove this convenience target, it's no longer needed now that the "real" check-root target once in 'tests/Makefile' will land in the top-level makefile. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'tests/Makefile'. * tests/Makefile.am: Rename ... * tests/local.mk: ... like this, with a lot of adjustments. * tests/init.cfg: Move ... * init.cfg: ... here. This is necessary, for a limitation of the gnulib-provided 'tests/init.sh', which unconditionally look for 'init.cfg' in the $(srcdir) directory. * tests/*/*.sh: Adjust: expect init.sh to be in '$srcdir/tests', not in '$srcdir', and extend $PATH with './src', not with '../src'. * tests/Coreutils.pm: Adjust similarly. * tests/pr/pr-tests.pl ($pfx): Likewise.
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.

2012-04-04tests: convert nearly all `...` expressions to $(...)Jim Meyering
Exempt init.sh because it runs before we're assured to have a shell that groks $(...). Exempt *.mk because "$" would have to be doubled, and besides, any `...` expression in a .mk file is almost certainly evaluated before init.sh is run. Finally, also exempt the perl-based tests, because perl's `...` cannot be converted to $(...). Do that by running this command: git grep -l '`.*`' tests \ | grep -Ev 'init\.sh|\.mk$' | xargs grep -Lw perl \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/`(.*?)`/\$($1)/g' One minor fix-up change was required after that, due to how quoting differs: diff --git a/tests/chmod/equals b/tests/chmod/equals - expected_perms=$(eval 'echo \$expected_'$dest) + expected_perms=$(eval 'echo $expected_'$dest) Another was to make these required quoting adjustments: diff --git a/tests/misc/stty b/tests/misc/stty ... - rev=$(eval echo "\\\$REV_$opt") + rev=$(eval echo "\$REV_$opt") ... - rev1=$(eval echo "\\\$REV_$opt1") - rev2=$(eval echo "\\\$REV_$opt2") + rev1=$(eval echo "\$REV_$opt1") + rev2=$(eval echo "\$REV_$opt2") Also, transform two files that were needlessly excluded above: (both use perl, but are mostly bourne shell) perl -pi -e 's/`(.*?)`/\$($1)/g' \ tests/du/long-from-unreadable tests/init.cfg
2012-02-12mv: "mv A B" would sometimes succeed, yet A would remain, ...Jim Meyering
But only when both A and B were hard links to the same symlink. * src/copy.c (same_file_ok): Handle another special case: the one in which we are moving a symlink onto a hard link to itself. In this case, we must explicitly tell the caller to unlink the source file. Otherwise, at least the linux-3.x kernel rename function would do nothing, as mandated by POSIX 2008. * tests/mv/symlink-onto-hardlink-to-self: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Bernhard Voelker in http://bugs.gnu.org/10686
2012-01-30mv: allow moving symlink onto same-inode dest with >= 2 hard linksJim Meyering
Normally, mv detects a few subtle cases in which proceeding with a same-file rename would, with very high probability, cause data loss. Here, we have found a corner case in which one of these same-inode tests makes mv refuse to perform a useful operation. Permit that corner case. * src/copy.c (same_file_ok): Detect/exempt this case. * tests/mv/symlink-onto-hardlink: New test. * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Initially reported by: Matt McCutchen in http://bugs.gnu.org/6960. Raised again by Anders Kaseorg due to http://bugs.debian.org/654596. Improved-by: Paul Eggert.

2012-01-09tests: more automated quote adjustmentJim Meyering
Relax initial regexp to match more instances, but add a filter to avoid some invalid conversions. Run this: git grep -l "\`[^']*'" tests | xargs perl -pi -e '$q=q"'\''";' \ -e '$q="$q\\$q$q"; /(= ?\`|\`expr|\`echo|\Q$q\E)/ and next;' \ -e ' s/\`([^'\''"]*?'\'')/'\''$1/g' The last disjunct in the above (...) filter is to exempt any line that contains this string: '\'' With quoting like that, converting a ` to ' is likely to cause trouble, so we'll handle those manually. Here are three examples where the exemption is required: *': `link-to-dir/'\'': hard link not allowed for directory'*) ;; printf 'creating file `%s'\''\n' $f 'mv: inter-device move failed: `%s'\'' to `%s'\'';'\
2012-01-09tests: change `...' to '...' on lines not matching /[=\$]/Jim Meyering

2011-08-08tests: complete the renaming framework_failure -> framework_failure_Stefano Lattarini
These changes were mostly mechanical, made by running the following command: git grep -lw framework_failure | grep -v ChangeLog \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/\b(framework_failure)\b/${1}_/' and then editing init.cfg and `tests/cp/cp-a-selinux' by hand. * tests/init.cfg (framework_failure): Remove, `framework_failure_' from init.sh should be used instead in the tests. Remove now-obsolete "FIXME" comment. (is_local_dir_, require_strace_, require_membership_in_two_groups_, require_sparse_support_, skip_if_mcstransd_is_running_, mkfifo_or_skip_) Use `framework_failure_', not `framework_failure'. * Many test scripts: Likewise.
2011-06-17tests: remove skip_test_ function; use new skip_ insteadJim Meyering
* tests/init.cfg (skip_test_): Remove function. Use skip_ in place of skip_test_ everywhere else. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_skip_): Remove rule. * tests/**: Use skip_, not skip_test_, everywhere.
2011-05-13tests: use skip_test_, not skip_Jim Meyering
skip_test_ emits its diagnostic both to FD 9 (tty), and to FD 2 (usually the log file), whereas init.sh's skip_ emits only to FD 9. Without that, the log is slightly less useful. * tests/cp/fiemap-2: Use skip_test_, not skip_. * tests/cp/fiemap-perf: Likewise. * tests/du/bigtime: Likewise. * tests/du/files0-from-dir: Likewise. * tests/du/move-dir-while-traversing: Likewise. * tests/init.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/sort-stale-thread-mem: Likewise. * tests/misc/stat-nanoseconds: Likewise. * tests/mv/i-3: Likewise. * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Likewise. * tests/split/filter: Likewise. Prompted by a report from Pádraig Brady.
2011-04-04tests: convert common root-build test failure to a "skip"Jim Meyering
* tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart: Skip rather than failing this test when run as root and the binaries are not accessible by "nobody".
2011-02-04tests: skip mv/i-3 on FreeBSD to avoid spurious failureJim Meyering
* tests/mv/i-3: Skip when uname -s reports FreeBSD.
2011-01-28tests: remove obsolete uses of "$$" in temporary file namesJim Meyering
Those were useful when tests might have been run in the same directory and in parallel. Now, each test is run in a newly- created empty directory. * tests/cp/backup-1: Remove obsolete uses of "$$". * tests/cp/same-file: Likewise. * tests/dd/misc: Likewise. * tests/mv/part-symlink: Likewise. * tests/mv/to-symlink: Likewise. * tests/touch/fail-diag: Likewise.
2011-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering

2010-12-28coreutils: keep lines within 80-column limitsPaul Eggert
* cfg.mk (LINE_LEN_MAX, FILTER_LONG_LINES): New macros. (sc_long_lines): New rule. * HACKING: Use shorter URLs to the same material. * doc/Makefile.am, doc/coreutils.texi, m4/boottime.m4: * man/help2man, man/stdbuf.x, src/Makefile.am, src/cat.c, src/copy.c: * src/cp.c, src/dd.c, src/df.c, src/du.c, src/groups.c, src/install.c: * src/ls.c, src/md5sum.c, src/mv.c, src/od.c, src/pinky.c, src/ptx.c: * src/readlink.c, src/remove.c, src/rmdir.c, src/setuidgid.c: * src/sort.c, src/tail.c, src/touch.c, tests/Coreutils.pm: * tests/cp/existing-perm-race, tests/cp/perm, tests/cp/preserve-gid: * tests/du/2g, tests/du/long-from-unreadable, tests/init.sh: * tests/install/basic-1, tests/ls/nameless-uid: * tests/ls/readdir-mountpoint-inode, tests/misc/chroot-credentials: * tests/misc/cut, tests/misc/date, tests/misc/join, tests/misc/md5sum: * tests/misc/sha1sum, tests/misc/sha224sum, tests/misc/sort: * tests/misc/sort-continue, tests/misc/sort-files0-from: * tests/misc/sort-rand, tests/misc/stdbuf, tests/misc/tr: * tests/misc/uniq, tests/mv/atomic, tests/mv/part-fail: * tests/mv/part-symlink, tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart, tests/pr/pr-tests: * tests/rm/fail-2eperm, tests/rm/interactive-always: Reformat to fit within 80 columns. * doc/Makefile.am (BAD_POSIX_PERL): New macro. * doc/coreutils.texi: Reword slightly, to make menus and index lines shorter. * src/md5sum.c: Redo --help output so that it fits within 79 columns, since that's a bit more portable and all the other --help strings fit in 79 columns.
2010-12-22maint: correct test-related commentsJim Meyering
* tests/mv/i-3: Adjust comment to match just-changed code. Spotted by Pádraig Brady. * tests/init.cfg (retry_delay_): Correct spelling of function name in usage example.
2010-12-22tests: mv/i-3: avoid false-positive failure on a slow/busy systemJim Meyering
* tests/mv/i-3: Quadruple the timeout duration. Without this, I saw an expired timeout on a heavily-loaded system.
2010-12-21tests: avoid new false-positive failure on at least FreeBSD 8.1Jim Meyering
* tests/mv/trailing-slash: Accommodate different diagnostic on FreeBSD 8.1.
2010-11-22cp: give a better diagnostic for nonexistent dest/Paul Eggert
This patch was written by Jim Meyering and myself. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Turn EISDIR to ENOTDIR to improve the quality of diagnostics for commands like "cp a nosuch/". Reported by Марк Коренберг and Alan Curry in the thread starting at: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2010-11/msg00178.html * THANKS: Update. * tests/mv/trailing-slash: Add a test.

E.g., -test "$VERBOSE" = yes && { env -- pwd --version; readlink --version; } +print_ver_ pwd readlink -test "$VERBOSE" = yes && { stdbuf --version; mv --version; } +print_ver_ stdbuf mv Use this command: git grep -l 'VERBOSE.*--version'|xargs perl -ni \ -e '/^test "\$VERBOSE" = yes && { .*--version/ or print,next;' \ -e 's/env -- //g;' \ -e 's/test "\$VERBOSE" = yes && { /print_ver_ /;' \ -e ' s/(\w+) --version;/$1/g; s/ *}$//; print'
2010-11-17tests: substitute the single-program $VERBOSE/--version usesJim Meyering
Automatically make all of the changes like this: -test "$VERBOSE" = yes && chgrp --version +print_ver_ chgrp git grep -l 'VERBOSE.*--version'|xargs perl -pi -e \ 's/test "\$VERBOSE" = yes && (\w+) --version/print_ver_ $1/'
