12006-12-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2 3 * bootstrap (gnulib_extra_files): Remove announce-gen. 4 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add it here instead, now that 5 it's a module. 6 7 * tests/misc/base64: Factor a long, repetitive string. 8 9 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust remove.c offsets. 10 11 Clean up after the change of 2006-12-28. 12 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): Change **DIRP parameter to *DIRP, 13 now that this function never modifies the pointer. Adjust comments 14 and code accordingly. 15 (remove_dir): Set "dirp" to NULL right after AD_pop_and_chdir call, 16 now that AD_pop_and_chdir no longer does that. 17 18 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Avoid spurious differences (the error function 19 from latest glibc no longer prints the full program_name): so don't 20 invoke rm via ../../src/rm. Instead, invoke it via "PATH=../../src rm". 21 22 * tests/mv/acl (skip): Skip this test also if the destination 23 directory, which is on a different file system, lacks ACL support. 24 25 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Rewrite a comment that was rendered 26 inaccurate by the 2006-10-18 change. 27 282006-12-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 29 30 When moving "up" the hierarchy, be careful to remove a just-emptied 31 directory before opening ".", to avoid trouble with file system 32 implementations that cache readdir results at opendir-time. 33 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): Add a file descriptor parameter. 34 Don't update **DIRP. Don't call fdopendir here. 35 (remove_dir): Call fdopendir here instead. 36 Report and patch from Mikulas Patocka: 37 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-12/msg00170.html> 38 392006-12-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 40 41 * src/tail.c (usage): Mention +N for --bytes and --lines. 42 Suggestion from Evan Hunt. 43 442006-12-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 45 46 * configure.ac: Require autoconf-2.61 and automake-1.10. 47 Without the former (even with autoconf-2.60), "make distcheck" 48 would fail (without the 2006-09-26 autoconf AC_CHECK_DECL fix), 49 due to an inttypes.h generated with CFLAGS including -pedantic. 50 With the old decl check, @HAVE_DECL_STRTOUMAX@ would be 0. 51 52 * Makefile.maint (VC-tag): Define, so as to gpg-sign each release 53 tag, using the release version number as the message. 54 (vc-dist): Use $(VC-tag), rather than "$(VC) tag". 55 562006-12-21 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 57 58 * NEWS: dd bs= operands now silently override later ibs= and obs=, 59 as POSIX requires. 60 * src/dd.c (scanargs): Implement it. 61 * tests/dd/misc (outbytes): Test it. 62 * doc/coreutils.texi (dd invocation): Specify that bs=N 63 overrides later ibs and obs, undoing part of the 64 previous change. (The behavior was wrong.) 65 662006-12-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 67 68 "rm -rf /etc/motd" (run by non-root) now prints a diagnostic. 69 * src/remove.c (remove_entry): Handle EACCES for a non-directory, too. 70 Don't let a non-directory get by with errno == EPERM, either. 71 Check the file type directly (using cached stat value), rather 72 than trying to guess it from errno values. 73 Karl Berry reported that a cross-partition "mv /etc/issue ~" 74 failed with the um,... suboptimal diagnostic, 75 "mv: cannot remove `/etc/issue': Not a directory". 76 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add fail-eacces. 77 * tests/rm/fail-eacces: New file. 78 * NEWS: Mention that both mv and rm are affected. 79 80 "cut -f 2- A B" no longer triggers a double-free bug 81 * src/cut.c (cut_fields): Set file-scoped global to NULL after 82 freeing it. This avoids a double-free (and core dump on some systems) 83 for this usage: "echo 1>a; echo 2>b; cut -f2- a b". Reported by 84 James Hunt in <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/220312>. 85 * NEWS: List this bug fix. 86 * THANKS: Mention him. 87 * tests/misc/cut: New file. 88 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cut. 89 902006-12-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 91 92 * tests/cp/open-perm-race: Correct the gdb-existence check. 93 Don't run either subsequent gdb command in a sub-shell. 94 Reported by Thomas Schwinge. 95 * THANKS: bring up to date. 96 972006-12-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 98 99 Make sure cp -p isn't too generous with file permissions. 100 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add file-perm-race. 101 * tests/cp/file-perm-race: New file. 102 103 Ensure cp -pR --parents isn't too generous with parent permissions. 104 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add parent-perm-race. 105 * tests/cp/parent-perm-race: New file. 106 1072006-12-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 108 109 * tests/chgrp/default-no-deref: Don't assume that files are created 110 with the primary group by default. That's not true in a directory 111 with the set-GID bit set. 112 113 Don't hang when there's no input tty. 114 * tests/cp/open-perm-race: Skip this test if there is no 115 controlling input `terminal'. 116 117 Test for a hard-to-detect race fix, using gdb. 118 * tests/cp/open-perm-race: New file, to test for the 119 cp --preserve=ownership fix of 2006-12-06. 120 121 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Define abs_top_builddir. 122 (TESTS): Add open-perm-race. 123 124 * src/chgrp.c (main): Don't prohibit -RLh, aka -RL with --no-dereference. 125 * src/chown.c (main): Likewise. 126 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Add to a comment. 127 * tests/chown/preserve-root: Add tests. 128 129 * NEWS: --preserve-root now works with chgrp, chmod, and chown. 130 * src/chmod.c (process_file): Do honor the --preserve-root option. 131 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Likewise, but here, also 132 handle the case in which a traversal would go "through" a symlink 133 to root. Reported by Matthew M. Boedicker 134 * tests/chown/preserve-root: Test for the above. 135 * tests/chown/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add preserve-root. 136 137 * NEWS: Mention the chmod fix induced by the 2006-12-11 change 138 to gnulib's m4/openat.m4. 139 1402006-12-13 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de> 141 142 Don't fail if mv/acl test succeeds. 143 * tests/mv/acl (skip): Check for acl support in the file system. 144 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove. 145 (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass CONFIG_HEADER. 146 1472006-12-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 148 149 Remove some arbitrary restrictions on size fields, so that 150 commands like "sort -k 18446744073709551616" no longer fail merely 151 because 18446744073709551616 doesn't fit in uintmax_t. The trick 152 is that these fields can all be treated as effectively infinity; 153 their exact values don't matter, since no internal buffer can be 154 that long. 155 * src/join.c (string_to_join_field): Verify that SIZE_MAX <= 156 ULONG_MAX if the code assumes this. Silently truncate too-large 157 values to SIZE_MAX, as the remaining code will do the right thing 158 in this case. 159 * src/sort.c (parse_field_count): Likewise. 160 * src/uniq.c (size_opt, main): Likewise. 161 * tests/join/Test.pm (bigfield): New test. 162 * tests/sort/Test.pm (bigfield): New test. 163 * tests/uniq/Test.pm (121): New test. 164 1652006-12-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 166 167 * tests/chgrp/default-no-deref: New test. 168 * tests/chgrp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add default-no-deref. 169 1702006-12-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 171 172 * src/system.h (SETVBUF): Remove definition, now that the 173 autoconf macro, AC_FUNC_SETVBUF_REVERSED, does nothing. 174 * src/tee.c (tee_files): s/SETVBUF/setvbuf/. 175 * src/od.c (open_next_file): Likewise. 176 1772006-12-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 178 179 * man/Makefile.am (.x.1): Make help2man use $(PACKAGE_STRING) as the 180 "source". I.e. "GNU coreutils 6.7". 181 182 * NEWS: With the change from "-pre" to "-dirty" suffix, also change 183 from NEXT_VER-pre to CUR_VER-dirty. So, this is 6.7-dirty. 184 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): s/6.8-dirty/6.7-dirty/. 185 186 * tests/uniq/Test.pm (test_vector): Skip the pipe-reading test 187 whenever uniq is expected to fail. This should catch the other case 188 [test #112] in which uniq emits "cat: write error: Broken pipe" on 189 some systems. 190 1912006-12-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 192 193 Include bootstrap tool version info in the announcement form. 194 * Makefile.maint (gnulib_snapshot_date): Define. 195 (announcement): Use two new announce-gen options, 196 --bootstrap-tools and --gnulib-snapshot-date. 197 * Makefile.cfg (gnulib_dir): Set. 198 199 Post-release version change. 200 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.8-dirty. 201 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Set new version string. 202 2032006-12-07 Jim Meyering jim@meyering.net 204 205 Version 6.7. 206 * NEWS: Record release date. Remove '-pre' suffix. 207 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove version string suffix. 208 2092006-12-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 210 211 Make the output of "make check" more reproducible. 212 * tests/touch/empty-file: Use envvar-check, so "make check" doesn't 213 evoke diagnostics like this when COLUMNS=0 in the environment: 214 ls: ignoring invalid width in environment variable COLUMNS: 0 215 * tests/touch/no-rights: Likewise. 216 * tests/help-version: Likewise. 217 * tests/uniq/Test.pm: Don't perform the pipe-reading version of test 218 118, since it emits "cat: write error: Broken pipe" on some systems. 219 2202006-12-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 221 222 * NEWS: Document the cp -p fix for special bits. 223 * src/copy.c (set_owner): Now returns a three-way result, so 224 that the caller can clear the special bits. All callers changed. 225 (copy_reg): Don't set the special bits if chown failed. 226 (copy_internal): Likewise. 227 * tests/cp/special-bits: Test this fix. 228 2292006-12-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 230 231 * NEWS: Document the cp --preserve=ownership fix. 232 * m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Check for fchmod. 233 * src/copy.c (fchmod_or_lchmod): New function. 234 (copy_reg): New arg OMITTED_PERMISSIONS. All uses changed. 235 Omit confusing and unused ", dst_mode" arg to 'open' without O_CREAT. 236 When creating a file, use O_EXCL, so we're more likely to detect 237 funny business by other processes. At the end, if permissions 238 were omitted, chmod them back in. 239 (copy_internal): If the ownership might change, omit some permissions 240 at first, then restore them after chowning the file. 241 * src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Likewise. 242 * src/copy.c (cached_umask): New function. 243 * src/copy.h (cached_umask): New decl. 244 2452006-12-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 246 247 Make the output of "make check" more reproducible. 248 * tests/misc/date-sec: Don't emit any diagnostic about sleeping. 249 2502006-12-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 251 252 * src/install.c (install_file_in_file): Preserve time stamps 253 before changing owner or file mode bits, for consistency with 254 other coreutils programs. 255 2562006-12-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 257 258 * tests/misc/date-sec: Output a fixed string. 259 260 * NEWS: du --one-file-system (-x) would skip subdirectories of any 261 directory listed as second or subsequent command line argument. 262 * tests/du/one-file-system: New file. Test for today's fts.c fix. 263 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add one-file-system. 264 Reported by Mike Frysinger. 265 2662006-12-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 267 268 * tests/du/basic: Generate 4KB file simply using printf, rather than 269 seq+head. This avoids a spurious "Broken pipe" diagnostic from seq. 270 2712006-11-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 272 273 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: Detect a buggy rename syscall. If found, 274 skip this test. This happens at least on ia64 linux-2.4.19 w/ext3. 275 Reported by Matthew Woehlke. 276 277 * tests/mv/dir2dir: Also accept EBUSY. 278 Reported by Matthew Woehlke. 279 2802006-11-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 281 282 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Rewrite to diagnose failure. 283 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust shred.c offsets. 284 2852006-11-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 286 287 Improve the check for departures from C89, and fix the departures 288 I found. 289 * Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Also check for C89 compatibility 290 as best we can with GCC. 291 * src/stat.c (PRINTF_OPTION): Omit comma before } in enum 292 declaration; C89 doesn't allow this. 293 * src/dcgen: Don't generate string literals longer than 294 what C89 requires support for. 295 * src/cut.c (usage): Don't use string literals longer than 296 what C89 requires support for. 297 * src/date.c (usage): Likewise. 298 * src/dd.c (usage): Likewise. 299 * src/du.c (usage): Likewise. 300 * src/ls.c (usage): Likewise. 301 * src/od.c (usage): Likewise. 302 * src/readlink.c (usage): Likewise. 303 * src/seq.c (usage): Likewise. 304 * src/shred.c (usage): Likewise. 305 3062006-11-26 Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> 307 308 Recognize new archive, audio and image formats. 309 Give audio files a separate color. 310 * src/dircolors.hin: Add comments for common .sh and .csh scripts. 311 Add .bz2, .tbz2, .tz, .rar, .ace, .zoo, .cpio, .7z, .rz as archive 312 suffixes. Add .mng, .pcx, .m2v, .mkv, .ogm, .mp4, .m4v, .mp4v, .vob, 313 .qt, .nuv, .wmv, .asf, .rm, .rmvb, .flc, .yuv as image formats. 314 Add .aac, .au, .mid, .midi, .mka, .ra as audio suffixes. Change 315 audio color to 00;36 to differentiate from image/video color. 316 3172006-11-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 318 319 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Compile patched sources with 320 CFLAGS='-Wdeclaration-after-statement -Werror', to ensure that 321 no violations remain. 322 323 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Remove 3 bogus hunks. 324 325 * src/remove.c (fd_to_subdirp): Remove unused parameter, ds. 326 Update callers. 327 328 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust for changes in rm.c and in remove.c. 329 330 * src/rm.c (main): Remove unnecessary (assuming C99) braces. 331 3322006-11-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 333 334 Port parts of the code to C89 to minimize the need for c99-to-c89.diff, 335 while trying to retain the readability of C99 as much as possible. 336 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Remove decl of local, fd_cwd. 337 Replace each of two uses with literal AT_FDCWD. 338 (cache_stat_init): Return its argument, for convenience. 339 Update the caller in remove_dir. 340 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Return prev_dir rather than storing through 341 a pointer argument. All uses changed. 342 (AD_ensure_initialized): New function. 343 (AD_mark_helper): Use it, to avoid the need for declaration 344 after statement. 345 (rm): Move cycle_check_init call into callee... 346 (rm_1): ...here. 347 Use an else clause in place of a "continue" statement. 348 (close_preserve_errno): Remove. 349 (fd_to_subdirp): Rewrite to avoid the need for decl after statement. 350 3512006-11-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 352 353 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove announce-gen from here, too. 354 3552006-11-24 Theodoros V. Kalamatianos <thkala@softlab.ece.ntua.gr> (tiny change) 356 357 * tests/du/inacc-dest: Skip this test when running as root. 358 3592006-11-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 360 361 * announce-gen: Remove file. It's moving to gnulib. 362 * bootstrap: Pull it from gnulib/build-aux instead. 363 * Makefile.maint (announcement): Reflect move to ./build-aux. 364 365 * tests/du/deref-args: Use "printf %65536s x" to create a 64KB file, 366 rather than a pipeline that would sometimes evoke a diagnostic 367 like "seq: write error: Broken pipe". 368 369 * tests/help-version: Suppress dd transfer rate output. 370 371 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.7-pre, not 6.6-pre. 372 3732006-11-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 374 375 * announce-gen (print_news_deltas): Fix silly, but harmless typo: 376 change "(:?..." to "(?:..." in regexps. 377 378 Post-release version change. 379 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.7-pre. 380 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.7 and add "-pre" suffix. 381 382 Version 6.6. 383 * NEWS: Record release date. Remove "-pre" suffix. 384 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-pre" suffix from version string. 385 386 * announce-gen: Remove unused --release-archive-directory option. 387 (print_news_deltas): Accept new adjective, "Noteworthy", in addition 388 to the old "Major". 389 Match version numbers in NEWS using tighter regular expressions. 390 (main): Require the --gpg-key-id=ID option. 391 * Makefile.maint (announcement): Don't use now-removed 392 --release-archive-directory=... option. 393 394 * NEWS: Mention the three noteworthy changes, all fixed via gnulib. 395 3962006-11-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 397 398 * tests/rm/one-file-system: Upon setup failure (e.g., mount failure), 399 skip the test rather than failing. Reported by Michael Deutschmann. 400 401 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Use the "(exit N); exit N" idiom, 402 rather than just "exit N". 403 404 Arrange for "make check-root" to run the new root-only test. 405 * tests/Makefile.am (t7): New target, to run tests/ls/nameless-uid. 406 (all_t): Add t7. 407 4082006-11-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 409 410 Add a root-only test for today's lib/idcache.c fix. 411 * tests/ls/nameless-uid: New file. 412 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add nameless-uid. 413 (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add PERL to the list. 414 4152006-11-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 416 417 * tests/tail-2/assert-2: Mark as a very-expensive test, because I 418 find the 7-second sleep annoyingly long. Besides, this test is 419 probably far too specific and timing sensitive ever to trigger again. 420 * tests/tail-2/assert: Likewise. 421 422 Post-release version change. 423 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.6-pre. 424 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.6 and add "-pre" suffix. 425 426 Version 6.5. 427 * NEWS: Record release date. Remove "-cvs" suffix. 428 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string. 429 4302006-11-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 431 432 "ln --backup f f" produces a misleading diagnostic: 433 ln: creating hard link `f' => `f': No such file or directory 434 * src/ln.c (do_link): Give a better diagnostic in this unusual case. 435 (do_link): Rename local: s/lstat_ok/dest_lstat_ok/. 436 * tests/ln/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hard-backup. 437 * tests/ln/hard-backup: New test for the above. 438 * NEWS: Mention this fix. 439 4402006-11-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 441 442 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add sys_stat, since we use it 443 directly too. 444 * lib/.cvsignore, lib/.gitignore: Add root-dev-ino.c, root-dev-ino.h. 445 * m4/.cvsignore, m4/.gitignore: Add root-dev-ino.m4. 446 * src/ls.c (DIRED_FPUTS_LITERAL, PUSH_CURRENT_DIRED_POS): 447 Omit unnecessary parenthesization of args. 448 * src/od.c (EQUAL_BLOCKS): Likewise. 449 * src/system.h (STREQ, ASSIGN_STRDUPA): Likewise. 450 4512006-11-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 452 453 * tests/tail-2/append-only: If chattr +a fails, exit 77 (to tell 454 automake we're skipping this test), and give a diagnostic to tell 455 the user the same thing. Reported by Mike Grayson. 456 4572006-11-16 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de> 458 459 * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Replace all optional manpages 460 with `$(MAN)', computed at configure time; also, list them ... 461 (optional_mans): ... in this new variable. 462 (max_aux, EXTRA_DIST): Ensure that we distribute all manpages. 463 4642006-11-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 465 466 Help valgrind see that there is no leak in dd.c. 467 * src/dd.c (dd_copy): Declare real_buf and real_obuf to be static, 468 so we need not free them at all. This is easier than freeing 469 both buffers at each of the early "return"s. 470 471 * src/csplit.c (load_buffer): Plug an inconsequential leak. 472 4732006-11-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 474 475 * .x-po-check: Exclude gl/ files. Otherwise, po-check would 476 complain that some of gl/lib/*.[ch] are not listed in POTFILES.in. 477 4782006-11-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 479 480 * gl/m4/root-dev-ino.m4: Now that this is part of a real "module", 481 remove the now-unnecessary use of AC_LIBSOURCES. 482 483 Adapt to new version of gnulib-tool. 484 * gl/modules/root-dev-ino: New file. 485 * lib/root-dev-ino.c, lib/root-dev-ino.h: Move these files ... 486 * gl/lib/root-dev-ino.c, gl/lib/root-dev-ino.h: ... to here. 487 * m4/root-dev-ino.m4: Move this file ... 488 * gl/m4/root-dev-ino.m4: ... to here. 489 490 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add root-dev-ino. 491 4922006-11-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 493 494 * src/sort.c (insertkey): Use xmemdup, rather than xmalloc+assignment. 495 From Paul Eggert. 496 497 Plug another technically-unimportant leak in sort. 498 * src/sort.c (main): Don't allocate memory for each new key here. 499 (insertkey): Allocate memory for each key here, instead. 500 (key_init): Rename from new_key. Don't allocate. 501 502 * src/sort.c (main): Plug a tiny memory leak. 503 Move declaration of local "minus" down to be nearer point of use. 504 5052006-11-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 506 507 du would exit early, when encountering an inaccessible directory 508 Reported by Mike Frysinger, in 509 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/8831 510 * tests/du/inacc-dest: New test, based on an example from Mike Frysinger. 511 * tests/chgrp/no-x: Remove the "fts_read failed: ..." 512 diagnostic from the expected output when using native fdopendir. 513 * tests/chmod/no-x: Likewise. 514 * tests/du/no-x: Likewise. 515 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix. 516 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add inacc-dest. 517 518 * Makefile.maint (sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value): Add an exclusion 519 for xalloc.h itself. 520 521 Avoid false-positive when testing via valgrind. 522 * tests/mv/atomic: Grep strace output for a more specific pattern 523 than just "unlink", since that got a false positive when testing 524 under valgrind: unlink("/tmp/valgrind_proc_9657_cmdline_A51E9991") = 0 525 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Define EGREP. 526 5272006-10-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 528 529 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Make it easier to regenerate 530 the src/c99-to-c89.diff file. E.g., I do this: 531 make patch-check REGEN_PATCH=1; ediff src/c99-to-c89.diff new-diff 532 533 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to reflect new offsets in rm.c. 534 5352006-10-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 536 537 * src/system.h (ftello): Add a compile-time check for the highly 538 unlikely condition of off_t narrower than long int, rather than 539 handling it at run time. Based on a patch from Paul Eggert. 540 5412006-10-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 542 543 * tests/chmod/c-option: When double-quoting part of a word, prefer 544 to double-quote the whole word. This is a bit easier to read (at 545 least for me), and in some cases it avoids a shell bug with Tru64 546 4.0 sh reported by Nelson H. F. Beebe. For example, instead of 547 "$abs_srcdir"/../setgid-check we now write 548 "$abs_srcdir/../setgid-check". 549 * tests/cp/cp-parents: Likewise. 550 * tests/du/inaccessible-cwd: Likewise. 551 * tests/du/long-from-unreadable: Likewise. 552 * tests/install/basic-1: Likewise. 553 * tests/install/trap: Likewise. 554 * tests/misc/close-stdout: Likewise. 555 * tests/mkdir/concurrent-1: Likewise. 556 * tests/mkdir/p-1: Likewise. 557 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Likewise. 558 * tests/mkdir/parents: Likewise. 559 * tests/mkdir/perm: Likewise. 560 * tests/readlink/can-e: Likewise. 561 * tests/readlink/can-f: Likewise. 562 * tests/readlink/can-m: Likewise. 563 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Likewise. 564 * tests/rm/unread3: Likewise. 565 * tests/touch/no-create-missing: Likewise. 566 567 * lib/.cvsignore: Add uinttostr.c. 568 5692006-10-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 570 571 Portability to Tru64 V4.0. 572 * src/system.h (ftello) [!HAVE_FSEEKO && !defined ftello]: 573 Define inline replacement function. 574 This (along with a yesterday's fix for autoconf's 575 _AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE macro) makes it so coreutils 576 now builds once more on Tru64 V4.0. Reported by Nelson Beebe. 577 5782006-10-25 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org> 579 580 * src/cat.c (infile): Add "const" to declaration. 581 * src/csplit.c (prefix): Likewise. 582 * src/printf.c (cfcc_msg): Likewise. 583 * src/tail.c (valid_file_spec): Likewise. 584 * src/cut.c (cut_file): Likewise, for a parameter. 585 * src/expr.c (str_value): Likewise. 586 * src/fold.c (fold_file): Likewise. 587 * src/pr.c (init_header): Likewise. 588 * src/dircolors.c (dc_parse_stream): Likewise, for a local. 589 * src/tr.c (make_printable_str): Likewise. 590 * src/nl.c (body_type, header_type, footer_type, current_type): 591 (separator_str, build_type_arg, nl_file): Likewise, for many. 592 * src/paste.c (main): Don't assign a read-only string to 'optarg'. 593 * src/tac.c (separator, tac_seekable, copy_to_temp): Likewise. 594 5952006-10-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 596 597 * tests/sample-test: Update copyright year list to include only 598 the current year, since this is what I'll want in any new test. 599 6002006-10-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 601 602 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to reflect new offsets. 603 604 * NEWS: new feature: rm accepts new option: --one-file-system 605 Suggested by Steve McIntyre in <http://bugs.debian.org/392925>. 606 * src/remove.h (struct rm_options) [one_file_system]: New member. 607 * src/rm.c (rm_option_init): Initialize it. 608 (usage): Document the option. 609 * src/mv.c (rm_option_init): Likewise. 610 * src/remove.c (remove_dir): With --one-file-system and --recursive, 611 for each directory command line argument, do not affect a file system 612 different from that of the starting directory.

Reported by Greg Schafer. 641 6422006-10-23 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change) 643 644 * Makefile.maint (alpha beta major): Use a better log message for 645 the automatic commit of .prev-version. 646 6472006-10-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 648 649 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Undo last change, since it made Perl invoke 650 pwd via a shell. Instead, ensure that the absolute name of the 651 pwd binary consists solely of reasonable characters. 652 Whoops. Don't exec the perl script. Otherwise, the sh-trap-based 653 clean-up code isn't run. 654 655 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.5-cvs. 656 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.5 and add "-cvs" suffix. 657 6582006-10-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 659 660 Version 6.4. 661 662 * NEWS: Record the 6.4 release date. 663 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string. 664 665 * Makefile.maint: Complete the adaptation to function with a working 666 directory that is using git (rather than cvs) for version control. 667 6682006-10-22 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de> 669 670 * tests/chmod/c-option: Double-quote instances of `$abs_srcdir'. 671 * tests/cp/cp-parents: Likewise. 672 * tests/mkdir/parents: Likewise. 673 * tests/mkdir/perm: Likewise. 674 675 * tests/sample-test: Quote variables containing absolute build 676 tree paths.

901 902 Enable an fts optimization (call lstat only for directories, 903 on some file system types) also with the --preserve-root option 904 of chown or chgrp. 905 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Compare fts_statp-based 906 dev/ino against root dev/ino only for directories. 907 (chown_files): Don't let the root_dev_ino setting influence whether 908 we use FTS_NOSTAT: fts always sets *fts_statp for a directory. 909 9102006-10-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 911 912 * src/od.c (usage): Change description of default to use "-w16", 913 not the now-invalid "-w 16" syntax. From Dan Jacobson. 914 9152006-10-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 916 917 * bootstrap: Add names to each .gitignore file (if it exists) 918 as well as to .cvsignore. 919 920 * Makefile.maint (po-check): This rule didn't detect the new use 921 of "gettext" (as opposed to the use of "_" everywhere else) in 922 lib/xstrtol.h. Adjust the grep regexp so that now it does. 923 9242006-10-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 925 926 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Rewrite slightly to avoid duplicate code 927 when opening dst_name. 928 (copy_reg, copy_internal): Use (SYSCALL != 0) rather than plain 929 (SYSCALL) to test for failure in a system call. 930 931 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use mknod rather than mkfifo to copy 932 a fifo. This preserves the special mode bits on Solaris 10, which 933 is compatible with what Solaris 10 cp -R does. 934 935 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Remove redundant and confusing local 936 variable src_type. 937 938 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't pass mkdir a mode greater than 939 7777. This matches historical 'cp' behavior and avoids some 940 (though not all) implementation-defined behavior of mkdir. 941 * src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Likewise. 942 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't pass 'open' a mode greater 943 than 777. This is required by POSIX. It doesn't make any difference 944 in actual behavior on any host that I know of. 945 9462006-10-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 947 948 * src/dd.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the 949 "fdatasync" option string from its description, so help2man formats 950 the derived man page properly. Reported by Samuel Thibault 951 in <http://bugs.debian.org/393649>. 952 9532006-10-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 954 955 * .x-sc_trailing_blank: Remove names of files that are no longer 956 version-controlled. 957 9582006-10-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 959 960 * src/groups.sh (version): Reword message to match the other programs. 961 Problem reported by Eric Blake. 962 9632006-10-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 964 965 * Makefile.maint (headers_with_interesting_macro_defs): Define. 966 (.re-defmac, sc_always_defined_macros): New rules. 967 968 * src/system.h (EXIT_FAILURE, EXIT_SUCCESS): Remove definitions. 969 Instead, include "exit.h". This hereby retires the work-around for 970 "Sony NEWS-OS Release 4.0C"'s bug due to "#define EXIT_FAILURE 0". 971 972 * src/cksum.c (uint_fast32_t): Don't define. 973 Instead, include <stdint.h>. 974 975 * src/pinky.c (S_IWGRP): Don't define. 976 It's already defined by "stat-macros.h" (included via system.h). 977 978 * Makefile.cfg: Remove cruft that's now handled via bootstrap. 979 * Makefile.maint: Likewise, remove these targets/rules/variables: 980 (local_updates, update, cvs-update, wget_files, get-targets): Remove. 981 (cvs_files, wget-update, automake_repo): Likewise. 982 Move the comment about cvsu to build-aux/vc-list-files, 983 where cvsu is actually used. 984 985 * Makefile.maint (cvs-update): Use $(CVS), not "cvs". 986 987 Work also when the working directory (with e.g. coreutils sources) 988 is version controlled with git, rather than CVS. 989 * bootstrap (CVS_only_file): Test for the existence of README-cvs, 990 rather than CVS. 991 In messages and comments, say e.g., "checked-out sources", 992 rather than "CVS sources". 993 (version_controlled_file): New function. Work for git as well as 994 for CVS. Don't use grep's -q option. 995 (slurp): Call it here, in place of CVS-specific code. 996 997 * NEWS: cp -r --backup dir1 dir2, would rename an existing dir1/dir2 998 to dir1/dir2~. 999 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Although we do create a backup of each 1000 destination directory when in move mode, don't do that when copying. 1001 Reported by Peter Breitenlohner, in 1002 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/8616>. 1003 * tests/cp/backup-dir: New file. Test for the above. 1004 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add backup-dir. 1005 10062006-10-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1007 1008 More chown/chgrp dereferencing-related fixes. 1009 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Don't use fts_statp if 1010 we're dereferencing symlinks. 1011 Reverse conjuncts, so that we use dereference file_stats 1012 (aka ent->fts_statp) only *after* we've confirmed that 1013 chopt->affect_symlink_referent is true. Otherwise, we might 1014 use ent->fts_statp uninitialized. 1015 Don't turn on FTS_NOSTAT when dereferencing symlinks. 1016 * tests/chown/deref: Update the expected diagnostic, now that 1017 this test case (trying to use "chown --dereference ..." on a 1018 dangling symlink) takes a different code path. 1019 10202006-10-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1021 1022 Sync from Bison, as follows: 1023 1024 2006-10-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1025 1026 Fix problems with translating English-language diagnostics. 1027 * bootstrap: Fix bug introduced in recent bootstrap changes, with 1028 respect to bison-runtime pot generation. The YY_ stuff 1029 wasn't being captured. 1030 10312006-10-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1032 1033 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Use fstatat, not stat, 1034 now that we're using fts_open with FTS_CWDFD. 1035 * tests/chgrp/posix-H: Add --preserve-root to an invocation of 1036 chgrp, to exercise the above fix. 1037 * NEWS: Mention the above. 1038 1039 * src/du-tests: Clean up a little, though it's still not portable. 1040 1041 * .vg-suppressions: Add 3 more for debian unstable. 1042 1043 * tests/ls/Test.pm: Remove long-unused file. 1044 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add bootstrap.conf. 1045 Suggestions from Bruno Haible. 1046 10472006-10-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de> 1048 1049 * Makefile.am (THANKS-to-translators): Add missing $(srcdir). 1050 (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add .kludge-stamp. 1051 * man/Makefile.am (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Typo $(dist_man_MANS) 1052 instead of $(man_MANS). 1053 10542006-10-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de> 1055 1056 * configure.ac: Avoid compiler warnings about default return 1057 type in function definitions and unused variables in tests. 1058 * src/who.c (print_user) [HAVE_UT_HOST]: hostlen is only needed 1059 if this is #defined. 1060 10612006-10-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1062 1063 * configure.ac: Reflect s/gl_MACROS/coreutils_MACROS/ renaming. 1064 Call gl_INIT directly, rather than through the above. 1065 10662006-10-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1067 1068 * bootstrap (symlink_to_gnulib): Fix bug: the dot_dots shell 1069 variable was sometimes used without being initialized. This 1070 messed up the installation of the INSTALL file in some cases. 1071 10722006-10-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1073 1074 * src/ls.c (usage): Correct description of -s, --size. 1075 It works even without -l. Suggestion from Karl Berry. 1076 10772006-10-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1078 1079 * src/ls.c (quote_name): Use initializer rather than memset to 1080 initialize an object to zero. This is easier to read and is less 1081 likely to introduce a runtime error due to a mixup. It causes 1082 gcc -W to issue a warning, but you can work around this by 1083 appending -Wno-missing-field-initializers. 1084 * src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Likewise. 1085 * src/shred.c (main): Likewise. 1086 * src/stty.c (main): Likewise. 1087 * src/tr.c (card_of_complement): Likewise. 1088 * src/wc.c (wc): Likewise. 1089 10902006-10-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1091 1092 * src/sort.c (usage): Mention again that sort fields are origin 1. 1093 1094 * NEWS: Fix typo: iso-8602 -> iso-8601. Problem reported by 1095 Bob Proulx. 1096 1097 * bootstrap (usage, main program, symlink_to_gnulib): Add option 1098 --copy. Inspired by a suggestion from Bruno Haible. 1099 11002006-10-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1101 1102 Avoid a compiler warning. 1103 * src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Initialize variable of type 1104 mbstate_t via memset, rather than via '{0}'. Patch from Bruno Haible. 1105 11062006-10-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1107 1108 Fix bug reported today by Mike Frysinger: mkdir -pv is logging the 1109 wrong file name in some cases. Lars Wendler reported a bug in 1110 my original fix. 1111 * src/install.c (make_ancestor): New arg COMPONENT. 1112 * src/mkdir.c (make_ancestor): Likewise. 1113 * tests/install/basic-1: Check for install -Dv bug. 1114 * tests/mkdir/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add p-v. 1115 * tests/mkdir/p-v: New file, to test this bug. 1116 11172006-10-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1118 1119 * src/chgrp.c: Don't include lchown.h; no longer needed. 1120 * src/chown.c: Likewise. 1121 1122 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Use a dynamic test to decide whether the 1123 current file system has useful d_type info. 1124 1125 * src/dd.c (flags): noatime and nofollow now depend on 1126 HAVE_WORKING_O_NOATIME and HAVE_WORKING_O_NOFOLLOW, too. 1127 (usage): Output info about noatime and nofollow only if 1128 they are known to work. 1129 * src/remove.c (AD_push): Inspect HAVE_WORKING_O_NOFOLLOW rather 1130 than O_NOFOLLOW, when testing whether it's possible to avoid a 1131 race condition reliably. 1132 11332006-10-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1134 1135 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to reflect new offsets. 1136 1137 * tests/install/basic-1: Skip the latter part of this test if the 1138 just-built dd binary is not readable. Otherwise, this test would fail 1139 when binaries were created as root. Reported by Bauke Jan Douma in 1140 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/8433>. 1141 11422006-10-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1143 1144 * src/system.h (ST_BLKSIZE): Ceiling at SIZE_MAX / 8 + 1, not at 4 1145 MiB, since XFS hosts can legitimately have large values of 1146 st_blksize. Problem reported by Tony Ernst in 1147 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17903>. 1148 11492006-10-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1150 1151 * src/remove.c (nonexistent_file_errno): Remove ENAMETOOLONG. 1152 Paul Eggert pointed out that the specified file may exist, 1153 in spite of such an errno value. 1154 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Remove ignore-name-too-long. 1155 * tests/rm/ignore-name-too-long: Remove file. 1156 * NEWS: Update here, too. 1157 11582006-10-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1159 1160 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Report failure also if rm is terminated by 1161 a signal. 1162 1163 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Convert two c99'isms -- one in remove.c 1164 and one in shred.c -- that were added before coreutils-6.3. 1165 Reported by Michael Deutschmann. 1166 1167 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to reflect new offsets. 1168 1169 * src/remove.c (remove_entry): With -f, exit successfully in spite 1170 of a missing file under some very unusual conditions (with errno 1171 being any of ENOENT, ENOTDIR, ENAMETOOLONG). 1172 1173 With --force (-f), rm no longer fails for ENOTDIR. 1174 * src/remove.c (ignorable_missing): New function. 1175 Use it everywhere, rather than open-coding the test. 1176 Andreas Schwab reported the ENOTDIR problem. 1177 (ignorable_missing): Similarly, don't fail for ENAMETOOLONG. 1178 1179 * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. 1180 * tests/rm/ignorable: New file. Test for the ENOTDIR case. 1181 * tests/rm/ignore-name-too-long: New file. Test for ENAMETOOLONG. 1182 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add the new file names. 1183 1184 * bootstrap: Undo last change to this file, since now gnulib-tool 1185 sticks with the automake default in generating dependencies. 1186 1187 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.4-cvs. 1188 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.4 and add "-cvs" suffix. 1189 11902006-09-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1191 1192 Version 6.3. 1193 * NEWS: Record the 6.3 release date. 1194 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string. 1195 1196 * NEWS: Mention Paul's Solaris 8 vs. 10 work-around. 1197 1198 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update offsets. 1199 12002006-09-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1201 1202 * tests/rm/readdir-bug: Don't use $(...) in a shell script, 1203 as it doesn't work with Solaris /bin/sh. 1204 12052006-09-29 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1206 1207 * NEWS: Mention Paul's fix (to gnulib's canon-host.c) for 1208 the pinky segfault. 1209 1210 * tests/seq/basic [neg-2, eq-wid-2]: Comment out tests that 1211 use .1 as the increment. Actual output varies too much. 1212 [eq-wid-3]: New, commented out test. 1213 1214 * src/shuf.c (read_input): Fix an off-by-one error that 1215 would cause an infloop for piped input of 8KB or more. 1216 * NEWS: Mention the fix. 1217 * tests/misc/shuf: Test for the above fix. 1218 1219 Since any system may be affected by the Darwin readdir bug, 1220 perform the extra rewinddir unconditionally. The performance 1221 impact of rewinding a directory is negligible. 1222 * src/remove.c (NEED_REWIND): Define to use 1223 CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD unconditionally. 1224 1225 * tests/seq/basic: Use .11 as the upper bound, in case the ".1" 1226 increment translates to a slightly larger value. 1227 This corrects a test failure on FreeBSD 6.1 reported by Nelson Beebe. 1228 The final expected value wasn't being printed. 1229 1230 Work around a readdir bug in Darwin 7.9.0 (MacOS X 10.3.9) on HFS+ 1231 and NFS, whereby rm would not remove all files in a directory. 1232 * src/remove.c (CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD): Reduce to 10. 1233 (NEED_REWIND): New macro, so that we incur the cost of the work-around 1234 rewinddir only on afflicted systems. 1235 * NEWS: Clarify and correct. 1236 * tests/rm/readdir-bug: New file. Test for the above fix. 1237 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it. 1238 Prompted by testing and analysis from Bruno Haible: 1239 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-09/msg00326.html 1240 12412006-09-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1242 1243 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Unset BASH_ENV, CDPATH, and ENV, too; 1244 suggested for Debian stable, which uses Perl 5.8.4. 1245 12462006-09-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1247 1248 Automatically generated dependencies are important even 1249 when all of the sources in a directory come from gnulib. 1250 * bootstrap (gnulib_tool): Remove the "no-dependencies" automake 1251 option that gnulib-tool adds to what becomes our lib/gnulib.mk. 1252 1253 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Enable Perl's (-T) taint checking. 1254 Ensure that IFS is set properly and unset PATH. 1255 Sanitize inputs. 1256 Work properly even when the name of the selected file starts with "-". 1257 Invoke rm via "../../src/rm", and adjust expected output. 1258 Prompted by a patch from Tim Waugh. 1259 1260 * README-cvs: Add Bison to the list of required packages. 1261 12622006-09-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1263 1264 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update offsets. 1265 1266 * NEWS: rm works around a bug in Darwin 8.6.1 w/NFS that kept 1267 it from removing a directory containing 188 or more entries. 1268 * src/remove.c (CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD): Decrease by 1269 20, go work around the buggy readdir on Darwin 8.6.1 with NFS. 1270 Reported by Matthew Woehlke. 1271 12722006-09-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1273 1274 * NEWS: "groups user" no longer outputs "user :"; you need at least 1275 two users. "groups" now processes options like --help more compatibly. 1276 * src/groups.sh: Implement the option-processing change. 1277 Handle user and group names with special characters more robustly. 1278 Report write errors instead of exiting silently with status 1. 1279 12802006-09-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1281 1282 * README: Warn not to run autoreconf manually. Use bootstrap instead. 1283 1284 * src/groups.sh: When invoked with 0 or 1 argument, just exec "id". 1285 Rewrite to avoid using temporary, $status. 1286 1287 * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. 1288 * src/groups.sh: Don't hide a write failure. 1289 Reported by Iain Calder <ic56@rogers.com>. 1290 12912006-09-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1292 1293 * src/chown.c (usage): Clarify --dereference description. 1294 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Likewise. Suggestion from Jamie McClelland. 1295 12962006-09-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1297 1298 * NEWS: Mention these fixes. 1299 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): With --verbose (-v), print 1300 "removed `file_name'" just after unlinking a file. 1301 (copy_internal): Likewise, in three more places. 1302 Marc Lehman reported that "touch x; ln x y; mv -v x y" was silent. 1303 * tests/mv/hard-verbose: New file. Test for the above fix. 1304 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hard-verbose. 1305 1306 * tests/help-version (sync_args): Don't call sync, since it spins up 1307 disks that I've deliberately caused to spin down (but not unmounted). 1308 1309 * NEWS: Mention the improvement to sort. 1310 1311 * tests/tail-2/proc-ksyms: Require that /proc/ksyms be readable 1312 as well as existing. 1313 1314 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Don't use tmpfs on linux-2.4 or older, 1315 since that predated addition of d_type support. 1316 13172006-09-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1318 1319 * gl/modules/getloadavg.diff: New file. Work around the way the latest 1320 version of the getloadavg module interacts with our bootstrap script. 1321 * bootstrap (gnulib_tool_options): Add "--local-dir gl". 1322 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Sort file names. 1323 Add bootstrap and gl/modules/getloadavg.diff 1324 13252006-09-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1326 1327 * bootstrap: Add support for --force. 1328 (usage): New function. Describe usage less tersely. 1329 (CVS_only_file): New var. 1330 1331 * NEWS: Document fix for cp -i and mv -i. 1332 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): With -i, prompt even if the source 1333 is a directory and the destination is not. This is required by 1334 POSIX and gives the user a chance to bail out before failing. 1335 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-i. 1336 * tests/cp/cp-i: New file. 1337 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add i-5. 1338 * tests/mv/i-5: New file. 1339 13402006-09-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1341 1342 * NEWS: Mention the chmod bug fix. 1343 1344 * tests/chmod/inaccessible: New test, specifically for this bug. 1345 Based on a test case from Paul Eggert. 1346 * tests/chmod/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add inaccessible. 1347 1348 Fix the 2006-09-18 bug differently. 1349 * src/chmod.c: (process_file): Upon FTS_NS for a top-level file, 1350 tell fts_read to stat the file again, in case it has become 1351 accessible since the initial fts_open call. 1352 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Likewise. 1353 1354 * src/chmod.c: Revert last change. There is a better way. 1355 * src/chown-core.c: Likewise. 1356 13572006-09-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1358 1359 * src/ln.c (target_directory_operand): Rewrite to avoid porting 1360 problem on Tandem reported by Matthew Woehlke in 1361 <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17172>. 1362 13632006-09-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1364 1365 Fix bug where chmod, chown, and chgrp did not process operands 1366 left-to-right in some cases. 1367 * src/chmod.c (wd_errno): New var. 1368 (chmod_file): New function, with most of the contents of the 1369 old prcess_file function. 1370 (process_files): Use it. This gives file names to fts one 1371 at a time, so that they are processed left-to-right as POSIX 1372 requires. 1373 * src/chown-core.c (wd_errno, chown_files): Likewise. 1374 (chown_file): New function. 1375 * tests/install/basic-1: Redo test so as to not workaround 1376 the chmod bug, thereby testing for it. 1377 1378 * src/shuf.c (main): Quote the entire range when reporting an 1379 invalid one, rather than just the part that contained the error. 1380 1381 * tests/stty/row-col-1: Rewrite to avoid temporary file that is 1382 sometimes left behind if the test is skipped or interrupted. 1383 1384 * bootstrap (symlink_to_gnulib): New function. 1385 (cp_mark_as_generated): Use it, to prefer symlinks-to-gnulib 1386 to copies-of-gnulib. 1387 (cp_mark_as_generated, slurp, gnulib_files): 1388 Avoid making a copy if it's the same as the old version. 1389 (gnulib_files): Add support for this variable (used by Bison). 1390 1391 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Fix quoting problem in diagnostic 1392 indicating flaw in kernel. Reword to say that the flaw isn't 1393 serious for coreutils, since the flaw does affect ls -i. 1394 1395 * tests/chgrp/basic: Fix bug in test case exposed by building on 1396 Solaris 8 in a setgid directory. The test case incorrectly 1397 assumed that 'symlink' would be in group $g1. 1398 13992006-09-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1400 1401 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.3-cvs. 1402 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.3 and add "-cvs" suffix. 1403 1404 Version 6.2. 1405 * NEWS: Record the 6.2 release date. 1406 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string. 1407 14082006-09-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1409 1410 * tests/chgrp/basic: On an OpenBSD system, rather than failing 1411 due to a known problem, merely warn about it. 1412 Rewrite to avoid testing output of chgrp --verbose and chgrp -c. 1413 Instead, use stat to test file system for desired results, directly. 1414 * tests/chgrp/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set host_triplet. 1415 1416 * tests/envvar-check: Add more variable names to the list of those 1417 that can affect these programs and tests: _POSIX2_VERSION, COLUMNS, 1418 QUOTING_STYLE, TABSIZE, TERM, TMPDIR. 1419 14202006-09-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1421 1422 * NEWS: Document that mkdir -p and install -d now fork on occasion. 1423 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add savewd. 1424 * src/install.c: Include savewd.h. 1425 (process_dir): New function. 1426 (main, install_file_in_file_parents): Use it, along with the new 1427 savewd module, to avoid some race conditions. 1428 * src/mkdir.c: Include savewd.h. 1429 (struct mkdir_options): New members make_ancestor_function, mode, 1430 mode_bits. 1431 (make_ancestor): Return 1 if the resulting directory is not readable. 1432 (process_dir): New function. 1433 (main): Use it, along with new savewd module, to avoid some 1434 race conditions. Fill in new slots of struct mkdir_options, so 1435 that callees get the values. 1436 * tests/install/basic-1: Test for coreutils 5.97 bug that was 1437 fixed in coreutils 6.0, and which should still be fixed with 1438 this change. 1439 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Likewise. 1440 14412006-09-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1442 1443 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add rename-dest-slash. 1444 The 2006-09-08 changes made it so "mv dir new-name/" would 1445 fail on NetBSD 1.6. This makes it work once again. 1446 14472006-09-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1448 1449 * src/mv.c (main): Remove unnecessary (always-true) test for 2 <= n. 1450 Instead, since it's a little fragile, assert the condition. 1451 (target_directory_operand): Update comment to reflect latest change. 1452 14532006-09-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1454 1455 * src/who.c (print_user): Rewrite to avoid warning from 1456 GCC 4.1.1 with -Wall. 1457 14582006-09-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1459 1460 * tests/mv/atomic: Check for specific strace output, rather than 1461 simply nonempty. RHEL AS 4 would fail this test due to strace 1462 generating "[ Process PID=14434 runs in 32 bit mode. ]". 1463 Reported by Nelson Beebe. 1464 14652006-09-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1466 1467 * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Move new cache_stat_init call onto 1468 it's own line. 1469 (rm_1): Move declaration of "st" and new cache_stat_init call 1470 "down" to nearer where they're used. 1471 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Add another set of curly braces. 1472 14732006-09-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1474 1475 * src/expr.c (eval6): Fix buffer overrun, or bad performance, if 1476 substr's last operand is very large. Performance problem reported 1477 by Sebastian Kreft. 1478 14792006-09-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1480 1481 * Makefile.maint (sc_prohibit_jm_in_m4): Don't hang when there 1482 are no .m4 files. 1483 (sc_require_config_h): Skip this test if there are no version- 1484 controlled .c files. 1485 (sc_prohibit_assert_without_use): Likewise. 1486 14872006-09-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1488 1489 * bootstrap: Export CVS_RSH separate from its assignment, to work 1490 even with Solaris 10's /bin/sh. Suggestion from Mark D. Baushke. 1491 14922006-09-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1493 1494 * NEWS: tail now ignores the -f option if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, 1495 no file operand is given, and standard input is any FIFO. 1496 This is in response to Open Group XCU ERN 114. 1497 * src/tail.c (main): Likewise. 1498 14992006-09-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1500 1501 mv and "cp -r" no longer fail when invoked with two arguments 1502 where the first one names a directory and the second name ends in 1503 a slash and doesn't exist. E.g., "mv dir B/", for nonexistent B, 1504 now succeeds, once more. This reverts part of the 2004-06-27 1505 change for 5.3.0. 1506 * NEWS: Say the above. 1507 * src/mv.c (target_directory_operand): Don't require (here) 1508 that the target operand "look like" a directory. This change 1509 pushes the test down to the rename syscall level, where a 1510 "mv dir existing-non-dir/" will mistakenly succeed on older systems 1511 that ignore trailing slashes in the rename destination argument. 1512 * src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): Likewise, but for cp. 1513 * tests/mv/trailing-slash: Exercise the above fixes. 1514 * tests/cp/trailing-slash: New file. 1515 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add trailing-slash. 1516 1517 * bootstrap: Use the previously unused variable, $src, 1518 to avoid repeating "$GNULIB_SRCDIR/$file". 1519 1520 * bootstrap (cp_mark_as_generated): Don't use "local", to 1521 accommodate ancient "/bin/sh". Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues. 1522 Rename now-global "$src" and "$dst" to have cp_ prefix. 1523 Safer, and avoids confusion. 1524 1525 * bootstrap (cp_mark_as_generated): New function. 1526 (slurp): Use it to prepend editor hints and a warning that 1527 the file we're copying is generated. 1528 Suggestion from Bruce Korb. 1529 (cp_mark_as_generated): Don't add C-style comments for .l or .y files. 1530 Fix last-minute typo. 1531 15322006-09-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1533 1534 * bootstrap: Revert last change. There are less disruptive ways 1535 to mark these generated files as read-only. 1536 1537 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to have proper offsets. 1538 15392006-09-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1540 1541 Ensure that some gnulib-tool-generated files are read-only. 1542 * bootstrap (slurp): Put the body of this function in a sub-shell, 1543 with "umask a-w" so that all new files are read-only. Remove each 1544 file before we write to it, in case it's read-only. 1545 Make po/Makevars and runtime-po/Makevars read-only, too. 1546 15472006-09-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1548 1549 * tests/cp/acl: Skip this test when cp lacks ACL support. 1550 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set $(CONFIG_HEADER). 1551 1552 * src/c99-to-c89.diff (remove.c): Adapt one hunk to match the new 1553 context from change of 2006-09-02. 1554 15552006-09-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1556 1557 * README-cvs: Fix typo in update command. 1558 15592006-09-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1560 1561 * NEWS: Tweak the wording in the new change description so that 1562 no one can think this change causes e.g., `rm -fr foo../' to fail. 1563 1564 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Adjust for movement of config.h to lib/. 1565 Use $CONFIG_HEADER, rather than hard-coding it. 1566 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set $CONFIG_HEADER. 1567 15682006-09-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1569 1570 * NEWS: rm now rejects attempts to remove /, ./, and ../. 1571 * src/basename.c: Don't include dirname.h, since system.h does it now. 1572 * src/chmod.c: Likewise. 1573 * src/copy.c: Likewise. 1574 * src/cp.c: Likewise. 1575 * src/df.c: Likewise. 1576 * src/dircolors.c: Likewise. 1577 * src/dirname.c: Likewise. 1578 * src/du.c: Likewise. 1579 * src/install.c: Likewise. 1580 * src/ln.c: Likewise. 1581 * src/ls.c: Likewise. 1582 * src/mkdir.c: Likewise. 1583 * src/mv.c: Likewise. 1584 * src/remove.c: Likewise. 1585 * src/rm.c: Likewise. 1586 * src/rmdir.c: Likewise. 1587 * src/shred.c: Likewise. 1588 * src/split.c: Likewise. 1589 * src/su.c: Likewise. 1590 * src/system.h: Include "dirname.h", since dot_or_dotdot needs it 1591 now. 1592 (dot_or_dotdot): Succeed even if "." or ".." is followed by a 1593 slash. 1594 * src/rm.c (usage, main): --preserve-root is now the default. 1595 * src/remove.h: Fix comment. 1596 * src/remove.c (cache_fstatat, cache_stat_init): New functions. 1597 (cache_statted, cache_stat_ok): New functions. 1598 (write_protected_non_symlink): Remove struct stat ** buf_p arg, 1599 which is no longer needed with the new functions. All callers 1600 changed. 1601 (prompt, is_dir_lstat, remove_entry, remove_dir): 1602 New struct stat * arg. All callers changed. 1603 (write_protected_non_symlink, prompt, is_dir_lstat, remove_entry): 1604 (remove_cwd_entries, remove_dir, rm_1): 1605 Use and maintain the file status cache. 1606 (prompt, remove_entry): Omit the first "directory" in the diagnostic 1607 "Cannot remove directory `foo': is a directory". This causes "rm" 1608 to pass a test case that it would otherwise fail now that it 1609 "knows" more about its argument. I think the diagnostic is better 1610 without the first "directory" anyway. 1611 (prompt): Remove the no-longer-needed IS_DIR arg; all callers changed. 1612 (rm_1): Reject attempts to remove /, ./, or ../. 1613 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add r-4. 1614 * tests/rm/r-4: New file. 1615 16162006-09-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1617 1618 * src/stat.c: Include <stddef.h> 1619 (alignof): New macro. 1620 (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID___VAL, HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID_VAL): 1621 Remove. 1622 (STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID_IS_INTEGER): New macro. 1623 (FSID_VAL): Remove. 1624 (print_statfs): If f_fsid isn't an integer, grab its words one 1625 at a time in little-endian order. This is a bit easier to configure 1626 and should avoid a compilation failure on MacOS reported by Bruno 1627 Haible. 1628 16292006-08-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1630 1631 * src/stat.c (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID_VAL, FSID_VAL): New macros, to 1632 work around a Mac OS X porting problem reported by Bruno Haible in 1633 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-08/msg00308.html>. 1634 (print_statfs): Use them. 1635 1636 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add isapipe. 1637 * src/tail.c: Include isapipe.h. 1638 (IS_PIPE_LIKE_FILE_TYPE): Remove. 1639 (IS_TAILABLE_FILE_TYPE): Just list both FIFOs and sockets as 1640 tailable, since this seems to be portable. 1641 (main): Use isapipe, to fix a bug on MacOS X reported by Bruno Haible in 1642 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-08/msg00304.html>. 1643 1644 * src/system.h (LOCALEDIR): Remove, since configmake.h now defines 1645 it for us. 1646 16472006-08-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1648 1649 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't test whether macros like 1650 S_ISLNK are defined, since they're always defined now. 1651 * src/cp.c (main): Likewise. 1652 * src/ln.c (main): Likewise. 1653 * src/ls.c (get_link_name, make_link_name): Likewise. 1654 * src/mknod.c (main): Likewise. 1655 * src/mkfifo.c (usage): Likewise. 1656 * src/who.c (S_IWGRP): Likewise. 1657 1658 Adjust to recent gnulib changes for the gnulib module. 1659 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add fcntl. 1660 * src/system.h (SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END): Remove. Other code 1661 is already assuming these macros are defined. 1662 (O_DIRECT, O_DIRECTORY, O_DSYNC, O_NDELAY, O_NOATIME, O_NONBLOCK): 1663 (O_NOCTTY, O_NOFOLLOW, O_NOLINKS, O_RSYNC, O_SYNC, O_BINARY, O_TEXT): 1664 Remove; the fcntl module now handles these. 1665 1666 Adjust to recent gnulib changes for the inttypes module. 1667 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove stdint; add inttypes. 1668 (excluded_files): Don't exclude m4/inttypes-h.m4 or m4/inttypes-pri.m4. 1669 1670 * src/system.h: Don't bother to include <stdint.h>, since we can 1671 now assume inttypes.h does the equivalent of including stdint.h. 1672 16732006-08-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1674 1675 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't make a backup if the last 1676 component of the source name is "." or "..". 1677 Reported by Andreas Schwab in http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17540. 1678 * NEWS: Mention this. 1679 * tests/cp/src-base-dot: New file. Test for the above fix. 1680 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add src-base-dot. 1681 1682 * src/system.h (DOT_OR_DOTDOT): Remove macro. Rewrite as a... 1683 (dot_or_dotdot): ...new static inline function. 1684 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Reflect this renaming. 1685 * src/ls.c (basename_is_dot_or_dotdot): Likewise. 1686 1687 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Add comments. 1688 16892006-08-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1690 1691 * src/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Remove -I$(srcdir) and -I../lib, 1692 since Automake supplies them for us. It always did -I$(srcdir), 1693 and with the recent change to AC_CONFIG_HEADERS in configure.ac it 1694 is now also doing -I../lib. 1695 1696 * bootstrap (get_translations): Skip this if WGET_COMMAND is empty. 1697 Fail if the first "echo" fails. Suppress diagnostics from "ls po/*.po" 1698 since there might not be any .po files. 1699 (WGET_COMMAND): Set to empty if wget doesn't 1700 seem to be available. 1701 17022006-08-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1703 1704 This test was failing in some environments. 1705 * tests/ls/color-dtype-dir: Don't rely on eval "`dircolors -b`" 1706 to set LS_COLORS in the environment. 1707 * tests/envvar-check: Instead, ensure that LS_COLORS is not set. 1708 Reported by Bob Proulx. 1709 1710 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Remove hunk for copy.c; no longer needed. 1711 1712 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove these files here, too: 1713 .x-sc_no_if_have_config_h, .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use, 1714 .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage. 1715 1716 Fix "mv --verbose --backup" so its output includes the 1717 " (backup: foo.~1~)" suffix also when backing up a directory. 1718 * NEWS: Report this bug fix. 1719 * src/copy.c (emit_verbose): New function, factored out of... 1720 (copy_internal): ...here. Use the new function. 1721 * tests/mv/backup-dir: Test for the above fix. 1722 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add backup-dir. 1723 17242006-08-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1725 1726 * .x-sc_no_if_have_config_h: Remove; no longer needed. 1727 * .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use: Remove; it was empty. 1728 * .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage: Likewise. 1729 * Makefile.maint (sc_no_have_config_h): Renamed from 1730 sc_no_if_have_config_h, since it now checks that HAVE_CONFIG_H 1731 is absent everywhere. 1732 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add config-h. 1733 * src/shred.c: Include <config.h> unconditionally, since 1734 we now assume config.h exists. 1735 * src/dircolors.c: Likewise. 1736 17372006-08-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1738 1739 "ls --color" would highlight other-writable and sticky directories 1740 no differently than regular directories on a file system with 1741 dirent.d_type support. 1742 * NEWS: Say the above. 1743 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): With --color, also stat the file when 1744 we know it is a directory. 1745 Derived from an anonymous one-line fix and bug report: 1746 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?15043>. 1747 * tests/ls/color-dtype-dir: New file. Test for the above fix. 1748 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add color-dtype-dir. 1749 17502006-08-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1751 1752 * .cvsignore: Remove stamp-h1. Add coreutils-*, to ignore 1753 tarballs. 1754 * bootstrap.conf: Add configmake, verify. 1755 * src/.cvsignore: Remove localedir.h. 1756 * src/Makefile.am (localedir, DISTCLEANFILES, localedir.h): Remove; 1757 subsumed by configmake. 1758 * src/system.h: Include configmake.h rather than localedir.h 1759 (LOCALEDIR): New macro. 1760 1761 Rewrite to avoid some unnecessary casts, macros, literals. 1762 * src/shred.c (DEFAULT_PASSES, VERBOSE_UPDATE): Now constants, 1763 not macros. 1764 (SECTOR_SIZE, SECTOR_MASK): New constants. 1765 (fillpattern, dopass, do_wipefd, main): Remove unnecessary casts, 1766 and use the SECTOR_* constants when applicable. Check for size < 1767 0 rather than size == -1, since negative-size files are a sign of 1768 trouble anyway. 1769 17702006-08-25 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org> 1771 1772 * src/shred.c (dopass): Assume a continuable error if EIO even 1773 if the current position is not a multiple of 512. 1774 17752006-08-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1776 1777 * src/stat.c (print_statfs): Fix typo: remove extra "sizeof". 1778 17792006-08-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1780 1781 * src/stat.c (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID___VAL): Define. This 1782 macro was being used without being defined. 1783 (SB_F_NAMEMAX): Remove cast. 1784 (f_fsid) [BeOS]: Likewise. 1785 (OUT_NAMEMAX): Renamed from NAMEMAX_FORMAT, with a new meaning. 1786 All uses changed. 1787 (out_string, out_int, out_uint, out_uint_o, out_uint_x): New 1788 functions. 1789 (xstrcat): Remove. All uses changed to use the above functions. 1790 (print_statfs, print_stat): 2nd arg is now the prefix len, not the 1791 buffer len. All uses changed. Output '?', not '*', for unknown 1792 data or errors. Do not assume signed values can be interchanged 1793 with unsigned when printing. 1794 (print_statfs): For %i, print the fsid as a single int, not as a 1795 pair. 1796 (print_it): Quote invalid format better. 1797 1798 * NEWS: printf supports the I flag. 1799 * src/printf.c (print_formatted) [glibc 2.2 or later]: Likewise. 1800 18012006-08-23 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org> 1802 1803 * src/stat.c (STRUCT_STATVFS, statfs, f_fsid, f_blocks, f_bfree) [BeOS]: 1804 (f_bavail, f_bsize, STATFS_FRSIZE, f_files, f_ffree) [BeOS]: 1805 (STATXFS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE_MEMBER_NAME) [BeOS]: Define. 1806 1807 * src/ls.c (SA_RESTART): Fallback define. 1808 18092006-08-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1810 1811 * src/system.h (EDQUOT): Define if not already defined. 1812 Problem reported by Bruno Haible for BeOS. 1813 1814 * .cvsignore: Remove config.h, config.hin, as they are now 1815 in lib. 1816 * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_HEADERS): Move config.h and config.hin 1817 to lib. 1818 * src/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Remove '-I..'; no longer needed. 1819 1820 * bootstrap (slurp): Define gl_LOCK_EARLY instead of gl_LOCK, 1821 to accommodate today's gnulib change. 1822 18232006-08-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 1824 1825 * NEWS: Mention the sweeping infrastructure changes. 1826 18272006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 1828 1829 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gnupload. 1830 * Makefile.maint (emit_upload_commands): gnupload is now 1831 in build-aux. 1832 * gnupload: Remove from CVS, since it's now a gnulib module. 1833 1834 * bootstrap (bootstrap_conf_cleanup): Remove. 1835 (excluded_files): New var. 1836 * bootstrap.conf: Likewise. 1837 * bootstrap (slurp): Exclude files early if they're in the 1838 excluded_files list.

Patch from Sven Joachim. For details, see 2017 <http://bugs.debian.org/355368>. 2018 2019 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Test for the 2006-08-17 `ls -CF' fix. 2020 2021 * README: Describe potential "pre-C99 build failure", and work-around. 2022 2023 Some of my 2006-07-03 changes to tests/*/Makefile.am were being 2024 backed out due to updates provoked by the copyright changes. 2025 * tests/Makefile.am.in (PATH): Prepend $(VG_PATH_PREFIX), so that 2026 it propagates to the derived Makefile.am files. 2027 ($(srcdir)/Makefile.am): Mark generated .am files as read-only, 2028 so we don't mistakenly edit them again. 2029 * tests/cut/Makefile.am: Regenerate. 2030 * tests/head/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2031 * tests/join/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2032 * tests/pr/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2033 * tests/sort/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2034 * tests/tac/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2035 * tests/tail/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2036 * tests/test/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2037 * tests/tr/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2038 * tests/uniq/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2039 * tests/wc/Makefile.am: Likewise. 2040 2041 * NEWS: Fix cp --sparse so that it preserves tail-end sparseness, even 2042 when the file's apparent size is not a multiple of its block size. 2043 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't write a NUL before calling ftruncate. 2044 For some file sizes, writing that single byte would unnecessarily 2045 waste a few file blocks. That write may have been necessary in the 2046 early days of Linux, but now, removing it should be safe. 2047 Based on a patch by Alan Curry: <http://bugs.debian.org/370792> 2048 * tests/cp/sparse: New test for the above. 2049 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sparse. 2050 2051 * tests/sparse-file: New file, essence factored out of... 2052 * tests/du/8gb: ... here.

some cases. 2409 * src/ls.c (get_type_indicator): New function. extracted from... 2410 (print_type_indicator): ...here. Use it. 2411 (length_of_file_name_and_frills): Use it here, too, rather than 2412 assuming stat.st_mode is valid. 2413 Reported by Andreas Schwab, here: 2414 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7774> 2415 See the test for this above. FYI, I did ls -CF /proc and visually 2416 inspected the result. 2417 2418 * src/copy.c (copy_internal, same_file_ok): Adjust comments not 2419 to mention the now-removed cp_options.xstat member. 2420 2421 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Adapt to work now that the patch 2422 modifies more than one file in src/. 2423 2424 With this patch, permit building with Solaris cc on Solaris 7. 2425 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Add diffs to convert more c99-isms. 2426 This integrates patches from Bruno Haible. 2427 24282006-08-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2429 2430 Fix some problems reported by Bruno Haible. 2431 * tests/chmod/setgid (abs_srcdir): Remove; not used or needed. 2432 Skip this test if "chmod g+s d" silently does nothing. 2433 * tests/ls-2/tests: Skip this test suite if we can't set up files 2434 properly for the setuid-etc test. This simplifies some of the 2435 hacks we were using to work around porting problems. 2436 24372006-08-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2438 2439 * tests/cp/Makefile.am: Don't mark "acl" as XFAIL. 2440 * tests/cp/acl: Instead, skip the test if either setfacl 2441 or getfacl fails. 2442 Reported by Michael Stone. 2443 24442006-08-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2445 2446 * tests/lang-default (LC_ALL): Set to "C", so we get 2447 English-language diagnostics. Unset the other variables; it 2448 should be portable to use 'unset' for this stuff nowadays. 2449 Problem reported by Bruno Haible. Using "C" reverses the 2450 2000-10-22 change to fileutils in this area. 2451 2452 Fix bugs when printing plurals of numbers that are not 2453 unsigned long int values. 2454 * src/system.h (select_plural): New function. 2455 * src/md5sum.c (digest_check): Use select_plural to avoid bug. 2456 * src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Likewise. 2457 * src/dd.c (print_stats): Likewise. Also, don't use ngettext to 2458 print a floating point number, as reducing to 0 or 1 doesn't work 2459 for some languages. Instead, just use "s" for seconds since it 2460 doesn't need a plural form. 2461 24622006-08-16 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org> 2463 2464 Old versions of gzip would write --help output to stderr, and it 2465 would be annoying to see that in the output of every "make" command. 2466 * Makefile.maint (gzip_rsyncable): Throw away stderr output of 2467 "gzip --help". 2468 24692006-08-16 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de> 2470 2471 * tests/cp/acl: Don't use non-portable == operator for test. 2472 24732006-08-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2474 2475 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Use stat to test file system type, rather 2476 than df -T, in case /etc/mtab lies. Reported by Michael Stone. 2477 24782006-08-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2479 2480 * NEWS: Mention that df exits with nonzero status if it generates 2481 no output. This change was in 6.0 but inadvertently unmentioned. 2482 * src/df.c (file_systems_processed): Renamed from n_valid_args, and now 2483 a boolean. 2484 (show_dev): Don't set it until we actually output something. 2485 Print the header if this is the first output. 2486 (main): Don't print a header, as that is now show_dev's job. 2487 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add df. 2488 * tests/misc/df: New file. 2489 24902006-08-15 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> 2491 2492 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Define to 0 if f_type is needed, but 2493 statvfs.f_type not present. See 2494 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=16325>. 2495 24962006-08-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2497 2498 * src/dd.c (print_stats): Don't substitute "1" for number, as this 2499 causes confusion for the Hungarian translators. Problem reported 2500 by Egmont Koblinger here: 2501 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7726 2502 25032006-08-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2504 2505 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add lib/at-func.c. 2506 2507 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.1-cvs. 2508 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.1 and add "-cvs" suffix. 2509 25102006-08-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2511 2512 * Version 6.0. 2513 * NEWS: Record the 6.0 release date. 2514 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string. 2515 2516 * TODO: Add an item (convert to use gnulib-tool), add to the plan 2517 for id-vs-getgrouplist, and remove a few completed items. 2518 2519 * Makefile.maint (alpha beta major): Fix syntax error. 2520 25212006-08-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2522 2523 * src/shred.c (usage): Don't indent the second line of an item. 2524 Otherwise, help2man would misformat the output. 2525 Reported by Adam Buchbinder in <https://launchpad.net/bugs/48917>. 2526 25272006-08-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2528 2529 * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Upgrade to need-formatstring-macros. 2530 Suggested by Eric Blake to avoid problems like 2531 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-07/msg00087.html>. 2532 25332006-08-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2534 2535 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Too many (losing) systems trigger the 2536 failure that this test checks for (stat/dirent inode mismatch at 2537 a mount point), so continue to give a diagnostic about the failure, 2538 but don't actually count it as a failure. 2539 25402006-08-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2541 2542 * ABOUT-NLS: Update from gettext 0.15. 2543 * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Update from 0.13.1 to 0.15. 2544 2545 * src/csplit.c (struct control): Remove fastmap member. 2546 (extract_regexp): Allocate fastmap separately, since otherwise 2547 it might move due to a realloc. This fixes a bug that led 2548 to a core dump on 64-bit sparc Solaris 10 (Sun Studio 10). 2549 25502006-08-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2551 2552 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: If "." is tmpfs, skip this test unless uname -s 2553 reports "Linux". This avoids a failure on Solaris 10's tmpfs. 2554 Redirect both stdout and stderr of df invocations. 2555 2556 * src/dircolors.hin: Add a TERM directive for each of the following: 2557 ansi, color-xterm, gnome, konsole, kterm, rxvt-cygwin, 2558 rxvt-cygwin-native, screen.linux, xterm-256color. 2559 Sort the TERM directives. 2560 From Mike Frysinger. 2561 25622006-08-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2563 2564 * src/dd.c (usage): Warn about oflag=append without conv=notrunc. 2565 See Debian bug 373736. 2566 2567 * src/dircolors.hin: Add mlterm, rxvt-unicode; this fixes Debian 2568 bug 317503. 2569 2570 * src/.cvsignore: Add shuf. 2571 2572 * Makefile.maint: Remove the po-update procedure; it doesn't 2573 work with the new repository on http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/. 2574 For now I guess we'll have to fix things by hand. 2575 (do-po-update, po-update): Remove. All references removed. 2576 2577 * src/shuf.c (next_line): New function. 2578 (read_input): Use it, to avoid relying on GCC-specific behavior 2579 with void * arithmetic. Problem reported by Bob Proulx. 2580 * Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Compile with -Wpointer-arith 2581 to detect this sort of problem automatically in the future. 2582 25832006-08-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2584 2585 * src/ls.c: Add a compile-time check to ensure that filetype 2586 and filetype_letter have the same number of elements. 2587 2588 * tests/misc/sort-rand: Remove use of --seed=S. 2589 25902006-08-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2591 2592 Add a command 'shuf', and modify shred and sort to use the new 2593 random number generator library of 'shuf'. 2594 2595 * AUTHORS: Add shuf. 2596 * README: Likewise. 2597 * NEWS: Likewise. Mention new --random-source option for shred 2598 and sort. Move "sort +1 -2" notice to the appropriate section, 2599 and clarify its role with respect to POSIXLY_CORRECT. 2600 * man/.cvsignore: Add shuf.1. 2601 * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add shuf.1. 2602 (shuf.1): New dependency. 2603 * man/shuf.x: New file. 2604 * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add shuf. 2605 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rand-isaac.c. 2606 (shuf_LDADD): New macro. 2607 * src/rand-isaac.c: Remove, moving most of its contents to 2608 lib/rand-isaac.c. 2609 * src/shuf.c: New file. 2610 * src/shred.c: Use new random-number interface rather than rand-isaac.c. 2611 Don't include rand-isaac.c; include randint.h and randread.h instead. 2612 (RANDOM_SOURCE_OPTION): New enum. 2613 (long_opts, usage, main): New option --random-source. 2614 * src/sort.c: Likewise. 2615 * src/shred.c (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Remove. 2616 All callers changed to use randint interface. 2617 (fillrand): Remove. All callers changed to use randread interface. 2618 (dopass): Remove dependency on ISAAC buffer size. 2619 (genpattern): Don't wipe the random state here. 2620 (randint_source): New static var. 2621 (clear_random_data): New function. 2622 (main): Allocate random source, and arrange to wipe it on exit. 2623 * src/sort.c: Include md5.h, randread.h, xmemxfrm.h. 2624 (longopts, usage, main): Remove undocumented --seed option; 2625 it's now replaced by --random-source. 2626 (rand_state, get_hash): Remove. 2627 (randread_source): New static var. 2628 (random_state, cmp_hashes, compare_random): New functions; they guarantee 2629 no collisions in the random hash function. 2630 (keycompare): Use compare_random for -R; don't fall back on comparing 2631 via memcoll, since compare_random does the right thing. 2632 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add shuf. 2633 * tests/misc/shuf: New file. 2634 26352006-07-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2636 2637 * src/copy.c (set_author): Preserve the st_author field via the 2638 file descriptor dest_desc. 2639 26402006-07-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2641 2642 * NEWS: chmod now preserves setuid and setgid bits on directories 2643 if you use a numeric mode with them clear, e.g., "chmod 755 DIR". 2644 2645 Fix test case problems if working directory is setgid, 2646 reported by Bob Proulx. 2647 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Use symbolic mode so that we clear 2648 setgid bit more reliably on directories. 2649 * tests/mkdir/special-1 (set_mode_string): Likewise. 2650 26512006-07-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2652 2653 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Use correct grammar in description of the 2654 --reference option 2655 * src/chown.c (usage): Likewise. 2656 26572006-07-26 Thomas Schwinge <tschwinge@gnu.org> (tiny change) 2658 2659 * src/copy.c (set_author) [HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_AUTHOR]: 2660 Correctly access SRC_SB's element ST_AUTHOR. 2661 26622006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2663 2664 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Adapt to match new expected output. 2665 From Paul Eggert. 2666 2667 * src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Test for S_IFREG first, rather 2668 than having the code test for all of the other types first. 2669 Hoist the set-uid/gid-testing code "up" into this new block. 2670 Classify any other type of file (e.g., S_TYPEISSHM, etc.) as 2671 C_ORPHAN, not as C_FILE. 2672 26732006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2674 2675 Checking in a change from Paul. 2676 2677 2006-07-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2678 2679 * src/ls.c (DT_INIT): Remove. All uses removed. 2680 (enum filetype): Use an ordinary enum rather than trying to keep 2681 the values in sync with DT_FIFO etc. That way, we don't have 2682 to make special assumptions about them. All uses changed. 2683 (whiteout): New constant member of enum filetype. 2684 (filetype_letter): New constant, for use with enum filetype. 2685 (FILETYPE_INDICATORS): New initializer list. 2686 (print_dir): Add case for DT_WHT. 2687 (gobble_file): If stat fails, don't discard information from 2688 readdir; instead, preserve it so it can be printed. 2689 (print_long_format): Fall back on readdir result if stat info 2690 is not available. Use "?" to denote each unknown mode char, 2691 instead of an overall "?", since we now know some of the mode 2692 typically. 2693 (print_type_indicator): Now that MODE isn't necessarily 2694 useful, guard all uses. 2695 Now that two blocks in the type-checking tree can set "type = C_FILE", 2696 move the suffix-handling code out and down. 2697 26982006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2699 2700 Prepare for the above change. 2701 * src/ls.c [struct fileinfo] (stat_ok): Rename from stat_failed, 2702 and adjust uses. From a patch by Paul Eggert. 2703 27042006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2705 2706 * src/ls.c: Correct indentation/formatting in a few places. 2707 27082006-07-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2709 2710 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Use "chmod 0500" rather than "chmod 500". 2711 Problem report and fix from Bob Proulx. 2712 * NEWS: Clarify the "chmod 0500" news, and correct the vague 2713 statements about compatibility with BSD. 2714 27152006-07-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2716 2717 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): When handling a stat-failed entry, 2718 print the entry name not the absolute_name -- to be consistent 2719 with the usual case. 2720 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Update accordingly. 2721 2722 * src/ls.c: Add parens around the new uses of ?: ternary operator. 2723 2724 * src/dircolors.hin: Mention that ORPHAN refers not just to dangling 2725 symlinks. 2726 2727 Get --dired offsets right when handling stat-failed entries. 2728 * src/ls.c (print_long_format): Be careful to increment P by the 2729 appropriate amount, even when inode_number_width and nlink_width 2730 are zero. 2731 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Test for the above. 2732 2733 * src/ls.c (gobble_file) [USE_ACL]: Don't use-uninitialized the 2734 have_acl member. That would happen for a directory with both a 2735 non-stat'able entry and one with an ACL. 2736 2737 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Make it so failure to stat a 2738 non-command-line file provokes an exit status of 1, not 0. 2739 Say "cannot access" rather than "cannot stat". 2740 * tests/ls/stat-failed: New file/test, for the above. 2741 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-failed. 2742 * tests/ls-2/tests (no-a-isdir-b): Update to reflect addition 2743 of "cannot access " to diagnostic. 2744 2745 * src/ls.c: Declare stat_failed to be "bool", not "int" everywhere. 2746 2747 * src/ls.c [enum filetype] (command_line): Remove member. Not needed. 2748 Replace all occurrences of "type == command_line" with the 2749 equivalent, "command_line_arg". 2750 2751 * src/ls.c: Apply the stat-failed parts of Red Hat's 2752 coreutils-selinux.patch. From Ulrich Drepper. 2753 This makes it so files not mentioned on the command line (e.g., 2754 names read from a directory that *is* mentioned on the command 2755 line) for which stat fails are still listed. With --color, 2756 such files are colored just like ORPHANs (aka dangling symlinks). 2757 2758 * src/df.c (n_valid_args): Declare global to be static. 2759 27602006-07-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2761 2762 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Skip this test on reiserfs, since that file 2763 system lacks d_type support. 2764 27652006-07-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2766 2767 * man/chmod.x: Update to reflect recent changes to coreutils.texi. 2768 27692006-07-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2770 2771 * src/su.c (usage): Correct typo in --help output: s/commmand/command/ 2772 Reported by Tim Waugh. 2773 Also remove the comment duplicating much of --help output. 2774 2775 * src/ls.c (FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION): Reposition this new 2776 name so the list remains alphabetized. 2777 2778 Fix another bug: ls --indicator-style=file-type would call 2779 stat for a symlink, even though it wasn't always needed. 2780 In some cases, that unnecessary stat would cause ls to fail. 2781 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Don't treat symlinks specially (in 2782 requiring a stat syscall). Remove the offending exclusion. 2783 2784 * NEWS: Mention the fix. 2785 2786 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: New file/test, for the above fix. 2787 Also exercises the new df feature, below. 2788 2789 * src/df.c (main): Fail and don't print the headers if no 2790 file system is processed. This makes it easy to test whether 2791 a specified directory is on a file system of a given type or types. 2792 Otherwise, applications would have had to parse df's output. 2793 E.g., is "." either ext3 or reiserfs: df -t ext3 -t reiserfs . 2794 2795 Fix a bug: ls --file-type worked like --indicator-style=slash, 2796 rather than like --indicator-style=file-type. 2797 * src/ls.c (FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION): New enum member. 2798 (long_options): Map "file-type" to FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION, 2799 not to 'p'. 2800 (decode_switches): Handle new case: FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION. 2801 * NEWS: Mention the fix. 2802 * tests/ls-2/tests (file-type): New test, for the above fix. 2803 28042006-07-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2805 2806 * src/ls.c (print_dir): Give a better diagnostic for failed opendir. 2807 2808 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add build-aux/vc-list-files. 2809 28102006-07-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2811 2812 * NEWS: chmod, install, and mkdir now leave setgid and setuid bits 2813 of directories alone unless you specify them explicitly. 2814 install and mkdir now implement X correctly. 2815 install now creates parent directories with mode 755, without 2816 changing their owner or group. 2817 * src/chmod.c (process_file): Adjust to mode_adjust API change. 2818 * src/install.c: Include mkancesdirs.h. 2819 (announce_mkdir, make_ancestor): New functions. 2820 (DEFAULT_MODE): New macro, specifying initial value of 'mode'. 2821 (mode): Use it. 2822 (dir_mode, dir_mode_bits): New vars. 2823 (main): Set dir modes separately from nondir, so that the X 2824 op of -m works correctly. 2825 (main): Remove cwd_errno cruft, since make_dir_parents no longer 2826 affects cwd. Adjust to new make_dir_parents API. 2827 (install_file_in_file_parents): 2nd arg is now char *, not char 2828 const *. Use mkancesdirs instead of rolling our own code. 2829 (change_attributes): Don't worry about AFS, since that kludge 2830 should not be needed any more. 2831 * src/mkdir.c (struct mkdir_options): New struct. 2832 (announce_mkdir, make_ancestor): New functions. 2833 (main): Use them. Adjust to mode_adjust API change. Stick with 2834 umask 0. Use make_dir_parents for all the work. 2835 * src/mkfifo.c (main): Adjust to new mode_adjust API. 2836 * src/mknod.c (main): Likewise. 2837 * tests/chmod/setgid: Do the setgid test instead of bailing. 2838 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Remove re_protect case that no longer applies. 2839 GNU chmod now behaves like other versions of chmod. 2840 * tests/mkdir/perm: Add a test for the X bug. 2841 28422006-07-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2843 2844 * src/base64.c (do_decode): Output to parameter OUT, not to stdout. 2845 This doesn't fix any bugs, since OUT always equals stdout, but it 2846 makes the code easier to understand. 2847 28482006-07-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2849 2850 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Use new file, build-aux/vc-list-files, 2851 rather than open-coding it. Now supports mercurial, too. 2852 * .hgignore: New file. 2853 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .hgignore, which ignores nearly 2854 all generated files, including ones like configure and po/*.po 2855 that are currently version-controlled in cvs. 2856 2857 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add a few more .??* files. 2858 They've been in CVS, just haven't been distributed before this. 2859 Distribute ChangeLog-2005, too. 2860 (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add THANKS-to-translators. 2861 28622006-07-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2863 2864 * src/system.h: Assume <dirent.h> exists, since gnulib assumes 2865 this now as well. 2866 28672006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2868 2869 * tests/mv/dir2dir: Adjust so failing with ENOTEMPTY is ok, too. 2870 That happens with Linux/tmpfs. 2871 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dir2dir. 2872 28732006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2874 2875 Adjust to recent updates from gnulib. 2876 * src/dd.c (apply_translations): Use toupper rather than 2877 islower followed by toupper; it's simpler and typically 2878 faster now that we assume at least C89 semantics. Similarly 2879 for tolower. 2880 * src/sort.c (inittables): Likewise. 2881 * src/expand.c (expand): Don't assume that isprint etc. return 2882 booleans (needed for pre-C99 hosts). 2883 * src/fmt.c (check_punctuation): Likewise. 2884 * src/ptx.c (initialize_regex, fix_output_parameters): Likewise. 2885 * src/tr.c (is_char_class_member): Likewise. 2886 * src/unexpand.c (unexpand): Likewise. 2887 * src/join.c (is_blank): Remove; no longer needed. All uses 2888 replaced by isblank (to_uchar (...)). 2889 * src/pinky.c (create_fullname): Don't assume char is unsigned. 2890 * src/printf.c (print_esc): Likewise. 2891 * src/ptx.c (SKIP_NON_WHITE, SKIP_WHITE, SKIP_WHITE_BACKWARDS): 2892 (copy_unescaped_string): Likewise. 2893 * src/stat.c (print_it): Likewise. 2894 * src/system.h (_D_EXACT_NAMELEN): Renamed from NLENGTH, for 2895 convenience on GNU systems. All uses changed. Don't bother 2896 looking for any dirent.h substitute other than ndir.h. 2897 (D_INO): Remove unnecessary parentheses. 2898 (IN_CTYPE_DOMAIN, ISGRAPH, ISPRINT, ISALNUM, ISALPHA): 2899 (ISCNTRL, ISLOWER, ISPUNCT, ISSPACE, ISUPPER, ISXDIGIT): 2900 (ISDIGIT_LOCALE, TOLOWER, TOUPPER): Remove. All uses changed 2901 to ctype.h equivalents. 2902 (isblank): Renamed from ISBLANK. Check for HAVE_DECL_ISBLANK too. 2903 All uses changed. 2904 29052006-07-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2906 2907 * tests/mv/dir2dir: New file, test for 2006-07-05 fix in copy.c. 2908 2909 * Makefile.maint (sc_the_the): New rule. 2910 2911 * src/dd.c (skip): Remove one of two adjacent "the"s in a comment. 2912 * tests/Coreutils.pm (run_tests): Remove one of two adjacent "then"s 2913 in a comment. 2914 29152006-07-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2916 2917 * NEWS: Mention that mv can now remove an empty destination directory, 2918 and give an example. Prompted by a report from Florent Bayle. 2919 29202006-07-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2921 2922 * src/ls.c (usage): Correct the description of -G: it is useful 2923 only in a long listing. Reported by Martin Pool in 2924 <https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/51653>. 2925 2926 * man/chmod.x: Correct the description of the sticky bit. Reported 2927 by Chris Moore via Ian Jackson in <http://bugs.debian.org/376745>. 2928 2929 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't work around old NFS clients like 2930 SunOS-4.1.4 and Irix 5.3 that set errno to values like EIO and 2931 ENOTEMPTY upon failed rename. Otherwise, we risk misinterpreting 2932 a banal failure as a recursive move-into-self failure. 2933 Reported by Florent Bayle in <http://bugs.debian.org/376749>. 2934 2935 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz. 2936 29372006-07-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2938 2939 Plug another unusual leak. 2940 (AD_mark_helper): Free malloc'd filename if hash_insert says 2941 that string is already in the hash table. 2942 2943 The dev/inode of the topmost directory in each hierarchy were not 2944 being recorded. 2945 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Don't call cycle_check here. 2946 (AD_push): Call it from here instead. 2947 2948 Fix two small leaks. 2949 * src/remove.c (AD_stack_clear): New function. 2950 (rm_1): Use it. 2951 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Free *prev_dir just before longjmp. 2952 2953 * tests/Makefile.am, tests/*/Makefile.am: (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): 2954 Add $VG_PATH_PREFIX as a prefix to $PATH 2955 2956 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add CDPATH and POSIXLY_CORRECT. 2957 * tests/Makefile.am (evar-check): Remove rule. 2958 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove .env-warn. 2959 * tests/.env-warn: Remove file. No longer used. 2960 Suggestion from Eric Blake. 2961 29622006-07-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2963 2964 * src/system.h: Include <stdint.h> unconditionally, since we 2965 now assume the stdint module. 2966 29672006-07-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2968 2969 * NEWS: With no operand, 'tail -f' now silently ignores the '-f' 2970 only if standard input is a FIFO or pipe and POSIXLY_CORRECT is set. 2971 * src/tail.c (main): Implement this. 2972 * tests/tail/Test.pm (f-pipe-1): Renamed from f-1. 2973 (test_vector): Set POSIXLY_CORRECT for the f-pipe-* tests. 2974 29752006-07-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 2976 2977 * src/ln.c (do_link): Use new, shorter URL, for ag-review link. 2978 2979 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add ^lib/xstrtold\.c$, so make distcheck 2980 passes once again. 2981 29822006-06-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 2983 2984 * NEWS: seq now uses long double internally rather than double. 2985 It now defaults to a minimal fixed point format if possible. 2986 It lets you use %a, %A, %E, %F, %G. 2987 * src/Makefile.am (seq_LDADD): Remove $(SEQ_LIBM); add $(POW_LIB). 2988 * src/seq.c: Don't include <math.h> or <xstrtol.h>; no longer needed. 2989 (isfinite) [!defined isfinite]: New macro. 2990 (separator, terminator): Now points to const. 2991 (first, step, last): Remove. 2992 (usage): Update to match new behavior. 2993 (struct operand, operand): New type. 2994 (scan_arg): Renamed from scan_double_arg, since we no longer use double. 2995 All uses changed. 2996 Compute and return a value of type operand, not double. 2997 (long_double_format): Renamed from valid_format, and now returns a 2998 new format with an "L" added if needed, if the original format was 2999 valid. Allow %a, %A, %E, %F, and %G formats. 3000 (print_numbers): Take numeric values as args rather than from globals. 3001 Print long double, not double. 3002 (get_width_format): Remove. 3003 (get_default_format): New function. 3004 (main): Implement new way of calculating default format. 3005 Don't worry about locale's representation of the decimal point, since 3006 the arguments are always processed in the C locale. 3007 * tests/seq/basic (neg-2): Adjust to new default format. 3008 (eq-wid-1, eq-wid-2): Resurrect these tests, since the new 3009 implementation should do the right thing. 3010 30112006-06-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3012 3013 * tests/stty/basic-1: Work around an intermittent test failure 3014 on HP-UX 11.11. Report and analysis from Bob Proulx. 3015 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7475 3016 30172006-06-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3018 3019 * NEWS: Support obsolete usages like "sort +1 -2" even when 3020 conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001, since this is a pure extension to 3021 POSIX. Problem reported by Christian in: 3022 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00220.html 3023 * src/sort.c (main): Implement this. 3024 3025 * src/system.h (CLOSEDIR): Remove. All uses changed to closedir. 3026 Autoconf 2.60 says this stuff was obsolete. 3027 30282006-06-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3029 3030 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz. 3031 30322006-06-28 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change) 3033 3034 * tests/mv/i-link-no: Work around HP-UX /bin/sh tracing problem 3035 (set -x when VERBOSE=yes) when stderr is redirected before stdout 3036 causing shell tracing of the stdout redirection to be written to 3037 the stderr file. Avoid problem and test failure on HP-UX by 3038 redirecting stderr last. 3039 * tests/dd/unblock-sync: Order shell file redirections for 3040 stderr and stdout in the common style. 3041 tests/acl: Likewise. 3042 30432006-06-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3044 3045 * tests/misc/cat-proc: Try to avoid any spurious numeric 3046 differences in frequently-changing /proc/cpuinfo. 3047 Reported by Nelson Beebe. 3048 30492006-06-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3050 3051 Attempt rmdir (actually, unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR) upon any 3052 fd_to_subdirp failure, not just when errno == EACCES. 3053 * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Use unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR, not 3054 rmdir, here, even though rmdir may happen to be adequate. 3055 3056 * NEWS: rm no longer fails to remove an empty, unreadable directory 3057 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): If we can't open a directory, 3058 and the failure is not being ignored, try to remove the directory 3059 with rmdir (aka unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR), in case it's empty. 3060 Problem report and test case from Paul Eggert in 3061 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7425>. 3062 3063 * tests/rm/empty-inacc: New test, for the above. 3064 3065 Avoid a segfault for wc --files0=- < /dev/null. 3066 * src/wc.c (compute_number_width): Return right away if nfiles == 0. 3067 30682006-06-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3069 3070 * NEWS: wc accepts a new option --files0-from=FILE, where FILE 3071 contains a list of NUL-separated file names. 3072 3073 * src/wc.c: Include "readtokens.h". 3074 (usage): Describe the new option, and adjust the `Usage': 3075 with this option, no FILE may be specified on the command line. 3076 (main): Handle the new option. 3077 * tests/misc/wc-files0: New tests, for the above. 3078 * tests/misc/wc-files0-from: Likewise. 3079 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add wc-files0. 3080 30812006-06-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3082 3083 * src/md5sum.c (DIGEST_BUFFER): Remove now-unused definitions. 3084 30852006-06-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3086 3087 * src/tee.c (tee_files): Rename from tee, to avoid conflict with 3088 the function in glibc's <fcntl.h>. Reported by Andreas Schwab. 3089 30902006-06-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3091 3092 * Makefile.cfg (local-checks-to-skip): Add changelog-check, 3093 so this check is not run as part of "make distcheck". 3094 30952006-06-18 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change) 3096 3097 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Fix typo (s/neq/ne/) in previous change. 3098 30992006-06-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3100 3101 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Make error output a little clearer. 3102 31032006-06-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3104 3105 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Skip this test on systems without openat 3106 support. Reported by Bob Proulx. 3107 31082006-06-15 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change) 3109 3110 * tests/misc/mknod: Improve permission checks to handle 3111 running mkdir test in set-gid directories. 3112 31132006-06-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3114 3115 * tests/du/basic: Revamp not to hard-code file system block sizes. 3116 31172006-06-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de> 3118 3119 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass $(PERL), for 3120 files0-from test. 3121 31222006-06-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3123 3124 * .gitignore: New file. 3125 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .gitignore. 3126 3127 Setting TIME_STYLE=long-iso in the environment would make the 3128 cp/same-file test fail. 3129 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add TIME_STYLE to the list. 3130 * tests/cp/same-file: Revert last change. 3131 Source the envvar-check script, to ensure that TIME_STYLE 3132 settings don't affect these tests. 3133 31342006-06-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3135 3136 * tests/cp/same-file: Execute 'ls' in the C locale, so that it 3137 uses POSIX time stamp formats. Problem reported by John Nixon in 3138 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00062.html>. 3139 31402006-06-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3141 3142 * NEWS: Mention the AIX-strndup-bug vs. dircolors workaround. 3143 3144 Require a "Version N.M" line at the top of the ChangeLog 3145 file only when making the actual release, not when running 3146 "make distcheck". 3147 * Makefile.maint (maintainer-distcheck): Don't depend on 3148 changelog-check. 3149 (alpha beta major): Depend on it here, instead. 3150 31512006-06-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3152 3153 Ensure that cat works with any of the options, -A -v -e -E -T, 3154 when applied to files in /proc and /sys, even when the FIONREAD 3155 ioctl produces nonsensical results. Before this change, cat would 3156 produce no output (or truncated output), for some linux kernels. 3157 3158 * src/cat.c (write_pending): New function, factored out of cat. 3159 (cat): Also interpret a negative ioctl/FIONREAD count as indicating 3160 that there are bytes to read. Some versions of linux-2.6.16 do that. 3161 Write any pending output before returning. 3162 Reported by Dan Jacobson in <http://bugs.debian.org/370583>. 3163 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix. 3164 * tests/misc/cat-proc: New file. Test for the above. 3165 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cat-proc. 3166 31672006-06-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3168 3169 * src/expr.c (eval4): Detect overflow properly when multiplying 3170 INTMAX_MIN * -1. 3171 31722006-06-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3173 3174 * NEWS: The 'expr' command now detects and reports integer overflow. 3175 (It would be better to use extended precision instead, but that 3176 would be more work.) 3177 * src/expr.c (integer_overflow): New function. 3178 (eval4, eval3): Check for integer overflow. 3179 31802006-06-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3181 3182 Fix problems when building with Solaris/SVR4/etc. make, which uses a 3183 different and somewhat bogus implementation of VPATH. In the 3184 directory tests/misc, rename tests whose names might appear in the 3185 Automake-generated rules. For example, we can't use a test named 3186 'test', since Automake generates a rule that contains the text 3187 "if test -f ./$$tst; ...", and this might expand to something like 3188 "if ../../../coreutils-6.0/tests/misc/test -f ./$$test; ...", 3189 which executes the 'test' script rather than the 'test' command. 3190 * tests/misc/false-status: Renamed from tests/misc/false. 3191 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Renamed from tests/misc/pwd. 3192 * tests/misc/sort-merge: Renamed from tests/misc/sort. 3193 ($prog): Set to 'sort' rather than to $PROG. 3194 * tests/misc/test-diag: Renamed from tests/misc/test. 3195 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (PROG): Take the basename of $$tst, 3196 in case Solaris make has prepended the directory. 3197 (TESTS): Adjust to above renamings. 3198 * tests/misc/expand: Don't assign to PROG; no longer needed 3199 now that Makefile.am sets PROG to the basename. 3200 * tests/misc/fold: Likewise. 3201 32022006-06-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3203 3204 Make `cp --link --no-dereference' work also on systems where the 3205 link system call cannot create a hard link to a symbolic link. 3206 * src/copy.c (copy_internal) [LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS]: Don't use 3207 the link syscall on a symlink when it would do the wrong thing. 3208 Based on the patch by Aurelien Jarno: <http://bugs.debian.org/329451> 3209 * tests/cp/link-no-deref: New file/test for the above. 3210 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add link-no-deref. 3211 * NEWS: Mention the change (doesn't affect Linux). 3212 32132006-06-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3214 3215 Fix some porting problems in the test cases reported by 3216 Ralf Wildenhues for HP-UX 11.23 in: 3217 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00238.html 3218 * tests/help-version: Don't assume that \< \> works in sed. 3219 * tests/misc/close-stdout: Don't assume that >&- works. 3220 Add a /dev/full test. 3221 * tests/touch/no-create-missing: Don't assume that >&- works. 3222 32232006-05-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3224 3225 * src/ls.c (usage): Add `v' to the list of sorting-related options. 3226 From Justin Pryzby. 3227 32282006-05-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de> 3229 3230 * tests/cp/fail-perm: source lang-default. 3231 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Likewise. 3232 32332006-05-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3234 3235 * tests/rm/inaccessible: AIX 4.3.3 gives a different diagnostic. 3236 Recognize it, too. Reported by Ralf Wildenhues, in 3237 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00192.html 3238 32392006-05-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3240 3241 * src/chgrp.c: Support new options: --preserve-root and 3242 --no-preserve-root. Somehow this program was skipped when those 3243 options were added to chown, chmod, and rm. Reported by 3244 vaqflabuopac@spammotel.com in <http://bugs.debian.org/365656>. 3245 * NEWS: Mention this. 3246 32472006-05-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3248 3249 * NEWS: Remove mention of --seed. We'll replace it with something 3250 better, and don't want to indicate that it is supported. 3251 * src/sort.c (usage): Likewise. 3252 32532006-05-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3254 3255 * src/chmod.c (main): Use FTS_PHYSICAL here, too. 3256 3257 * src/du.c (main): Rename local, s/symlink_deref_bit/symlink_deref_bits/ 3258 and arrange for -D to set fts' FTS_PHYSICAL bit as well as 3259 FTS_COMFOLLOW. Spotted by Justin Pryzby. 3260 3261 * gnupload: Merge changes from automake, retaining the ""--to... 3262 kludge to placate overzealous `make distcheck' check. 3263 32642006-05-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3265 3266 * src/du.c (main): Don't let -D, -L, or -P turn off the internal 3267 FTS_TIGHT_CYCLE_CHECK directory traversal option. 3268 Reported by Justin Pryzby in http://bugs.debian.org/367691 3269 32702006-05-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3271 3272 * src/cp.c (usage): Correct description of -a: s/-dpR/-dpPR/. 3273 From Tomas Pospisek. 3274 32752006-05-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3276 3277 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: Test two more cases. 3278 32792006-05-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3280 3281 mv -T DIR EMPTY_DIR no longer fails unconditionally 3282 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't manually prohibit a move where 3283 the destination is an existing directory. Sometimes doing that is 3284 valid. Let the rename system call enforce the rules. That is 3285 allowed only when the source is a directory and the destination 3286 directory (to be replaced) is empty. Reported by Eric Blake. 3287 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: New file/test for this. 3288 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add no-target-dir. 3289 * NEWS: Mention this. 3290 3291 * tests/mv/atomic: New file/test for yesterday's fix. 3292 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add atomic. 3293 3294 * tests/du/long-sloop: Avoid harmless `ambiguous redirect' diagnostic. 3295 32962006-05-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3297 3298 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't explicitly unlink the destination 3299 when moving a symlink into the place of an existing non-directory. 3300 Reported by Joshua Hudson. 3301 * NEWS: mention this. 3302 33032006-05-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3304 3305 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Fail if patch generates any output, 3306 even merely for changed offsets. 3307 3308 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust to reflect new offsets. 3309 3310 * NEWS: Mention changes affecting df, pwd, shred. 3311 33122006-05-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3313 3314 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: New test, to detect the bogus file 3315 system condition where dirent.d_ino != stat.st_ino. 3316 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-vs-dirent. 3317 33182006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> 3319 3320 * tests/ls/inode: Expand to test inode from readdir case. 3321 * tests/ls/follow-slink: Expand to test broken links encountered 3322 implicitly, favoring Solaris 9 and OpenBSD 3.4 behavior. 3323 33242006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> 3325 3326 * tests/mv/leak-fd: Work even on case-insensitive file system. 3327 33282006-05-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3329 3330 * NEWS: Mention the 2006-03-19 pwd-related change that makes 3331 lib/getcwd.c work around inconsistent file system dirent.d_ino data. 3332 33332006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3334 3335 * src/ls.c (DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS, LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS): 3336 Use better macro parameter names: s/basename/key_name/, 3337 s/basefunc/key_cmp_func. Fix typo in comment. 3338 33392006-04-29 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> 3340 3341 * src/ls.c (main): On systems with d_type, directories_first only 3342 implies format_needs_type, not format_needs_stat. 3343 33442006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3345 3346 * src/ls.c (xstrcoll_df_version, rev_xstrcoll_df_version): Add space 3347 after comma in arg list, from Eric Blake. 3348 33492006-04-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3350 3351 * tests/misc/date (relative-3): New test, derived from a bug 3352 report by John Thomas McDole. 3353 33542006-04-23 Francesco Montorsi <fr_m@hotmail.com> 3355 3356 New option for ls: --group-directories-first. 3357 It makes ls list directories before files. 3358 * NEWS [New features]: Mention it. 3359 * src/ls.c (sort_type): Rearrange to use as an array index when 3360 choosing sort function; added new sort_numtypes member for 3361 compile-time check. 3362 (time_type): Add new time_numtypes member for compile-time check. 3363 (directories_first): New global variable. 3364 (GROUP_DIRECTORIES_FIRST_OPTION): New enum. 3365 (long_options): Add --directories-first. 3366 (main): Support new option. 3367 (is_directory): New function. 3368 (extract_dirs_from_files): Use it. 3369 (DIRFIRST_CHECK, DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS) 3370 (LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS): New macros. 3371 (sort_functions): New global variable. 3372 (sort_files): Use it. 3373 (usage): Document new option. 3374 33752006-04-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3376 3377 * src/shred.c (fillrand): The assertion was way too weak, due to 3378 what must be a typo. Strengthen it to its intended value. 3379 (dopass): Don't use alloca; it's not worth the aggravation here, 3380 since it's used only to get a page-aligned buffer, and page 3381 alignment doesn't buy us much here. I'm suspicious that alloca 3382 causes problems on some hosts, due to a recent bug report by Adam 3383 Waltman: http://bugs.gentoo.org/130246. 3384 33852006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3386 3387 * tests/misc/tty-eof: Add new programs, base64, sha224sum, sha256sum, 3388 sha384sum, sha512sum. 3389 33902006-04-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3391 3392 * src/chmod.c (describe_change): Adjust to filemode changes. 3393 * src/ls.c (HAVE_ST_DM_MODE): Remove; moved to ../lib/filemode.c. 3394 (print_long_format): Use (new) filemodestring rather than 3395 (old) mode_string, so that we get more file types right, at least 3396 in theory. Adjust to filemode changes. 3397 * src/stat.c (human_access): Likewise. 3398 33992006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3400 3401 * src/ptx.c (main) [DEFAULT_IGNORE_FILE]: Remove code to use a default 3402 ignore file. This has never been enabled. Reported by Eric Blake. 3403 34042006-04-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3405 3406 * src/ln.c (linkfunc): Remove. This method ran into a compiler/linker 3407 bug in Interix. Just call symlink or link directly. All uses changed. 3408 * src/setuidgid.c (main) [! HAVE_SETGROUPS]: Don't call setgroups. 3409 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): New macro. 3410 Include <sys/statvfs.h> and use statvfs only if USE_STATVFS. 3411 (NAMEMAX_FORMAT): define a bit more clearly, now that the 3412 statvfs-using code is a bit more regular. 3413 * src/system.h (sync) [!HAVE_SYNC]: New macro. 3414 34152006-04-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3416 3417 * NEWS: csplit, nl, expr now conform to POSIX better, and are 3418 more-compatible with traditional Unix, with respect to regular 3419 expressions. 3420 * src/csplit.c (extract_regexp): Set re_syntax_options to a 3421 value that is compatible with what POSIX requires. 3422 * src/nl.c (build_type_arg): Likewise. 3423 * src/expr.c (docolon): Likewise. Also, don't let anchors match 3424 newline; this fixes an incompatibility with tradition and with POSIX. 3425 Don't warn about leading ^. POSIX says it is unspecified whether 3426 ^ is a special character, which means that implementations can 3427 either treat it as special or not, but either way a warning is not 3428 allowed (unless the regexp is otherwise invalid). Instead, anchor 3429 the expression but treat ^ as an anchor; this is the traditional 3430 behavior (e.g., Solaris 10). 3431 (eval4, eval3, eval2): Treat non-numeric args, division by zero, 3432 and the like as invalid expressions (exit status 2), not as 3433 failure of 'expr' (exit status 3). This is more consistent with 3434 how Solaris behaves. 3435 * tests/expr/basic (fail-a): Adjust exit status to match new expr 3436 behavior, for status 2 versus 3. 3437 (anchor): New test. 3438 (bre1, bre2, bre3, bre4, bre5, bre6, bre7, bre8, bre9, bre10): 3439 (bre11, bre12, bre13, bre14, bre15, bre16, bre17, bre18, bre19, bre20): 3440 (bre21, bre22, bre23, bre24, bre25, bre26, bre27, bre28, bre29, bre30): 3441 (bre31, bre32, bre33, bre34, bre35, bre36, bre37, bre38, bre39, bre40): 3442 (bre41, bre42, bre43, bre44, bre45, bre46, bre47, bre48, bre49, bre50): 3443 (bre51, bre52, bre53, bre54, bre55, bre56, bre57, bre58, bre59, bre60): 3444 (bre61, bre62): New tests. 3445 * tests/misc/csplit: Use \{...\} in test RE, to test that we're 3446 conforming to POSIX. 3447 3448 Port to Solaris 8. 3449 * tests/du/long-from-unreachable: Solaris 8 sh doesn't understand 3450 "if !". Do not assume that 'sed' can handle long, newline-free input. 3451 * tests/du/long-sloop: Likewise. Evaluate expr once, not $n times. 3452 34532006-04-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3454 3455 Adjust to new regex.h API (with new fastmap type), and clean 3456 up the regex storage allocation a bit. 3457 3458 * src/csplit.c (struct control): Put re_compiled member at the 3459 end, since it's large. Change regexpr member from char * to bool; 3460 all uses changed. Add new member fastmap. 3461 (extract_regexp): regexp arg is now char const *, not char *. 3462 Don't bother duplicating the regular expression; it's not needed. 3463 Set fastmap from new fastmap member. Don't bother allocating 3464 a buffer, as the regexp code does a better job than we do. 3465 * src/expr.c (docolon): Allocate and use a fastmap. 3466 Don't bother allocating a buffer. 3467 * src/nl.c (body_fastmap, header_fastmap, footer_fastmap): 3468 New vars. 3469 (build_type_arg): New fastmap arg. All uses changed. 3470 Don't bother allocating a buffer, but set a fastmap. 3471 * src/ptx.c (context_regex_string, word_regex_string): Remove. 3472 (context_regex, word_regex): New vars, replacing the above. 3473 All uses changed. 3474 (struct regex_data): New type. 3475 (compile_regex): Renamed from alloc_and_compile_regex, since 3476 we no longer allocate storage. Arg is now a struct regex_data *, 3477 not a const char *. All uses changed. Don't allocate the fastmap; 3478 instead, take it from the caller. Don't convert size_t to int, 3479 to avoid arithmetic overflow problems. Don't bother freeing 3480 storage afterwards; it's not worth the aggravation. 3481 * src/tac.c (compiled_separator_fastmap): New ver. 3482 (main): Use it. Don't bother allocating a buffer. 3483 34842006-03-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3485 3486 * src/dd.c (iwrite): Remove assignment without effect. 3487 Reported by Felix Rauch Valenti. 3488 34892006-03-22 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> 3490 3491 * src/ptx.c (usage): Remove mention of --copyright/-C. 3492 (main): Alias --copyright to --version plus a deprecation warning. 3493 * NEWS: Mention this. 3494 34952006-03-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3496 3497 * src/Makefile.am (uptime_LDADD): Add $(POW_LIB), for uptime's 3498 use of strtod. Tiny patch from Nickolai Zeldovich. 3499 35002006-03-11 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> 3501 3502 * tests/misc/dirname: New file. 3503 * tests/basename/Makefile.am: Delete. 3504 * tests/basename/basic: Move to... 3505 * tests/misc/basename: ... this new file. Add some tests, 3506 including fixed behavior for //. 3507 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Sort. Add basename, dirname. 3508 * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove basename. 3509 * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove tests/basename. 3510 3511 Improvements to dirname/basename handling on platforms like 3512 cygwin with distinct // and with drive letters. 3513 * NEWS: Document new behavior. 3514 * src/basename.c (main): Don't strip suffix from file system 3515 roots. 3516 * src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): Use new last_component. 3517 (ASSIGN_BASENAME_STRDUPA): Likewise.

Simplify redirection to /dev/null in some cases. 3569 3570 * tests/dd/misc: iflags->iflag. This fixes a typo that meant the 3571 noatime test never tested anything. 3572 35732006-03-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3574 3575 * src/dd.c (flags, usage): New flags directory, nolinks. 3576 * src/system.h (O_NOLINKS): Define to 0 if not already defined. 3577 3578 * src/ls.c (usage): Mention that -f disables --color. 3579 Problem reported by Niels Möller. 3580 35812006-03-03 Justin Pryzby <pryzbyj@justinpryzby.com> 3582 3583 * man/*.x: Add references to syscalls from utilities of the same name. 3584 35852006-03-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3586 3587 * tests/help-version: Set SHELL, if not already set, in order to 3588 avoid failure when `make check' is run through debuild; dircolors 3589 would fail due to lack of $SHELL.

From Simon Josefsson. 3613 3614 * src/base64.c (do_decode): Use correct type for parameter, 3615 ignore_garbage: s/size_t/bool/. 3616 3617 * src/base64.c: Don't include .h files already included by system.h: 3618 <string.h>, <stdlib.h>, <stdbool.h>, <limits.h>, <errno.h>. 3619 Include "system.h" before the other lib/*.h header files. 3620 Include <sys/types.h> before "system.h". 3621 (wrap_write): Remove declaration of unused local, initial_column. 3622 (wrap_write): Correct declaration syntax: s/size_t * V/size_t *V/. 3623 3624 * README: Add base64 to the list. 3625 36262006-02-17 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com> 3627 3628 New program: base64. 3629 * AUTHORS: Mention base64. 3630 * NEWS: Likewise. 3631 * man/Makefile.am: Build base64.1. 3632 * man/base64.x: New file. 3633 * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add base64. 3634 * src/base64.c: New file. 3635 36362006-02-25 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> 3637 3638 In ls, avoid calling stat for --inode (-i), when possible. 3639 * src/pwd.c (NOT_AN_INODE_NUMBER, D_INO): Move to ... 3640 * src/system.h: ... here, for use in ... 3641 * src/ls.c (main): ... here. Prefer dirent.d_ino to stat when 3642 possible. 3643 (gobble_file): Add inode argument. 3644 (print_dir): Pass inode if available. 3645 (usage): Remove inaccuracy. 3646 36472006-02-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3648 3649 * TODO: Update/correct some obsolete entries. 3650 36512006-02-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3652 3653 * doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Mention `sort -k 1b,1'. 3654 * src/join.c (usage): Likewise. 3655 Documentation problem reported by Philip Kensche. 3656 36572006-02-20 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> 3658 3659 * man/rm.x: Update documentation to match previous patch. 3660 36612006-02-18 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net> 3662 3663 New option for rm: --interactive=once (-I). 3664 * NEWS: Document it, along with change to rm --interactive. 3665 * TODO: Remove entry for implementing rm -I 3666 * src/rm.c (INTERACTIVE_OPTION): New enum value. 3667 (interactive_type): New enum. 3668 (long_opts): Let interactive take an optional argument. 3669 (interactive_args, interactive_types): New option arguments. 3670 (usage): Document -I, --interactive=WHEN.

(Hmm, why did it 3739 go away? was that an accident?) 3740 (sc_cast_of_argument_to_free, sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value): 3741 (sc_cast_of_alloca_return_value, sc_space_tab, sc_prohibit_atoi_atof): 3742 (sc_error_exit_success, sc_file_system, sc_no_if_have_config_h): 3743 (sc_system_h_headers, sc_sun_os_names, sc_trailing_blank): 3744 (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage, sc_unmarked_diagnostics): 3745 (sc_obsolete_symbols, sc_changelog, sc_prohibit_jm_in_m4): 3746 (sc_useless_cpp_parens, makefile-check, m4-check, po-check): 3747 (author_mark_check, makefile_path_separator_check): 3748 Output line numbers, to simplify navigation of Emacs *compilation* 3749 buffers. 3750 (sc_prohibit_atoi_atof, sc_file_system): 3751 Rework slightly so that Makefile.maint doesn't get reported as a 3752 violation of its own syntax rules. 3753 (sc_dd_max_sym_length): Use ifneq to do nothing, instead of doing 3754 it at run-time (which didn't work with Bison). Fix a makefile typo, 3755 caught by Makefile.maint itself: spaces where a tab should be. 3756 (po-check): Check lib/*.[ch] even if not in CVS; used by Bison, 3757 which copies from ../gnulib/lib/*.[ch] to lib/*.[ch]. 3758 Ignore djgpp and man subdirectories, to avoid false matches with 3759 Bison and coreutils, respectively. Use sort -u to remove the 3760 resulting duplicates. 3761 * gnupload: Rework slightly to avoid bogus warning from 3762 sc_two_space_separator_in_usage. 3763 37642006-02-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3765 3766 Use gzip's --rsyncable option only if it's available. 3767 * Makefile.maint (gzip_rsyncable): New variable. 3768 (GZIP_ENV): Use it. 3769 37702006-02-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3771 3772 * Makefile.maint (local-checks-available): Define in terms of 3773 the expansion, $(syntax-check-rules), rather than the single, 3774 top-level target `syntax-check', so that it's easier to exclude 3775 individual rules (via $(local-checks-to-skip)). 3776 (tgz-md5, tgz-sha1, ...): Remove now-unused definitions. 3777 37782006-02-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3779 3780 * src/system.h (!defined O_DIRECT): If O_DIRECTIO is defined (as it 3781 is on Tru64), define O_DIRECT to that. Patch From James Lemley. 3782 3783 * tests/help-version (expected_failure_status_vdir): 3784 Redirect an expected disk-full diagnostic to /dev/null. 3785 37862006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3787 3788 * src/unexpand.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the 3789 --first-only option string from its description, so help2man formats 3790 the derived man page properly. 3791 * src/rm.c (usage): Likewise for --no-preserve-root. 3792 * src/chown.c (usage): Likewise. 3793 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Likewise. 3794 3795 Add a rule to ensure that the above doesn't happen again. 3796 * Makefile.maint (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage): New rule. 3797 (syntax-check-rules): Add it. 3798 * .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage: New empty file. 3799 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage. 3800 38012006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3802 3803 * src/cp.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate each 3804 option string from its description, so help2man formats the 3805 derived man page properly. 3806 * src/mv.c (usage): Likewise. 3807 Patch from Nicolas François in http://bugs.debian.org/351601. 3808 38092006-02-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3810 3811 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): cp -RL would fail when encountering 3812 the same directory more than once in the hierarchy beneath a single 3813 command-line argument. That is legitimate, e.g. when there are 3814 two or more symbolic links, each pointing to some directory that 3815 would not otherwise be copied. Reported by Christophe LYON. 3816 * tests/cp/cp-deref: New file. Test for today's fix. 3817 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-deref. 3818 * NEWS: Document this. 3819 38202006-02-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3821 3822 * configure.ac: Require automake-1.9.6, not 1.8.3. 3823 38242006-02-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3825 3826 * src/od.c (usage): Mention that -t a ignores high order bit. 3827 Documentation problem reported by Ed Avis. 3828 38292006-02-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3830 3831 * src/pwd.c (find_dir_entry): Remove unused local, `ent_sb_valid'. 3832 38332006-01-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3834 3835 * src/head.c (main): Use a better diagnostic when someone uses a 3836 trailing numeric option in an invalid way. Problem reported by 3837 Karl Berry. 3838 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Likewise. 3839 38402006-01-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3841 3842 * man/wc.x: Include `count' keyword in man page synopsis, 3843 per suggestion from http://bugs.debian.org/181585. 3844 38452006-01-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3846 3847 * src/df.c (show_dev): If the file system claims to have 3848 more available than total blocks, report the number of used 3849 blocks as being total - available (a negative number) rather 3850 than as garbage. Problem reported by Toralf Foerster. 3851 38522006-01-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3853 3854 * src/tail.c (tail_forever): Don't exit-nonzero when an attempt 3855 to put a regular file in O_NONBLOCK mode fails with EPERM. 3856 That happens on Linux (up to 2.6.15) when using tail -f on a file with 3857 the append-only attribute. Reported by Dean Gaudet. For details, 3858 see http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15473. 3859 * NEWS: Mention this fix. 3860 * tests/tail-2/append-only: New file. Test for the above. 3861 * tests/tail-2/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add append-only. 3862 * tests/Makefile.am (check-root): Add tail-2/append-only 3863 38642006-01-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3865 3866 * NEWS: Mention fts-related improvements and bug fixes. 3867 38682006-01-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3869 3870 * tests/fmt/basic (pfx-1, pfx-2): New tests, to demonstrate the bug 3871 reported as http://bugs.debian.org/147577. Forwarded by Thomas Hood. 3872 38732006-01-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3874 3875 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-from-unreadable. 3876 38772006-01-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3878 3879 Now that fts no longer changes the current working directory, adjust 3880 its clients accordingly -- note that du.c uses fts but doesn't need 3881 any adjustment, since it doesn't operate on the actual files, 3882 but rather just uses the stat buffers provided by fts. 3883 3884 * src/chown-core.c: Include "openat.h". 3885 Don't include "lchown.h". 3886 (restricted_chown): Accept a new parameter, CWD_FD, and use it in 3887 calling openat, lchownat, chownat, rather than open, lchown, chown. 3888 Update caller. 3889 * src/chmod.c: Include "openat.h". 3890 (process_file): Use chmodat (fts->fts_cwd_fd,... in place of chmod (... 3891 3892 * tests/du/long-from-unreadable: New test, to exercise one small 3893 corner of fts.c. 3894 38952006-01-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3896 3897 * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add comments discouraging the 3898 addition of new directories under tests/. 3899 3900 * tests/acl: Redirect stdin to /dev/null. Otherwise, FreeBSD 5.0's 3901 getfacl would hang. 3902 39032006-01-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3904 3905 * tests/du/long-sloop: Adjust not to hard-code the expected 3906 diagnostic corresponding to ELOOP. Solaris' diagnostic differs 3907 from that of GNU libc. Reported by Paul Eggert. 3908 3909 * tests/du/long-sloop: Create file at end of symlink chain. 3910 3911 * tests/misc/test: New file, with a test for one of the 3912 bugs fixed by yesterday's test.c changes. 3913 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add test. 3914 39152006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3916 3917 * tests/du/long-sloop: New file. Test for today's fts.c bug fix. 3918 That bug could make du -L, chgrp -L, or chown -L fail to diagnose 3919 a very long sequence of symbolic links (not necessarily a loop). 3920 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-sloop. 3921 39222006-01-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3923 3924 * src/test.c (test_syntax_error): Append a newline. All callers 3925 changed, except for the ones that didn't already append a newline. 3926 Bug reported by Eric Blake. 3927 39282006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3929 3930 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC): Now that verify_true is no longer 3931 void, cast its result to void, to avoid gcc's warning that 3932 ``left-hand operand of comma expression has no effect''. 3933 (DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE, X2REALLOC): Likewise. 3934 39352006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3936 3937 * tests/chmod/no-x: Add a test for today's fts.c fix. 3938 39392006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> (tiny change) 3940 3941 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Use DTTOIF only if it's defined. 3942 This is necessary for Dragonfly. Patch by Joerg Sonnenberger. 3943 39442006-01-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3945 3946 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC, X2REALLOC, DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE): 3947 Use verify_true instead of verify_expr, to sync with gnulib. 3948 39492006-01-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3950 3951 * src/date.c (usage): Adjust the formatting of the entries for 3952 %::z and %:::z (separate with two spaces, not one) so that help2man 3953 formats them properly. Reported by Philip Rowlands. 3954 39552006-01-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3956 3957 * configure.ac (gl_IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES): Add. 3958 39592006-01-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3960 3961 * Makefile.maint (copyright-check): Use date +%Y in place of 3962 hard-coded 2005. 3963 3964 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Remove `static' attribute on local `status'. 3965 First off, the attribute should have been `volatile' (not static) 3966 to avoid longjmp-related risk of clobber. Secondly, now there is 3967 no longer any risk of a local variable being clobbered, so there's 3968 no need for any attribute at all. 3969 39702006-01-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3971 3972 * src/remove.c: Give a few functions the inline attribute. 3973 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Use gotos to avoid some duplication. 3974 (AD_push): Rewrite an assertion so that the entire computation 3975 goes away when assertions are turned off. 3976 3977 * src/tail.c (ENOSYS) [!defined ENOSYS]: Don't define here. 3978 It's already defined in "system.h". 3979 * Makefile.maint: Add a FIXME comment. 3980 39812006-01-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3982 3983 * ChangeLog: Remove entries from 2005-10-22 and earlier. 3984 * ChangeLog-2005: New file, for entries up to version 5.92. 3985 39862006-01-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 3987 3988 * tests/du/no-x: Also allow a slightly different diagnostic -- the 3989 one you get when using openat-enabled fts.c and du (coming soon). 3990 * tests/chmod/no-x: Likewise. 3991 * tests/chgrp/no-x: Likewise. 3992 3993 * src/system.h (O_DIRECTORY) [!defined O_DIRECTORY]: Define. 3994 39952006-01-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 3996 3997 * src/chown-core.c (RC_do_ordinary_chown): New enum value. 3998 (restricted_chown): Return it, if the file cannot be accessed due 3999 to EPERM, or if no uid or gid are required, or if the file is 4000 neither a directory nor a regular file. Rewrite to avoid gotos. 4001 (change_file_owner): Handle RC_do_ordinary_chown case. 4002 Rewrite to avoid gotos. 4003 * tests/chgrp/basic: Make sure we can change the group of 4004 inaccessible files. 4005 4006 * src/date.c (usage): Explain %g, %G, and %V a bit better. 4007 40082006-01-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> 4009 4010 * src/copy.c (set_owner): Correct a comment. 4011 4012 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Change warning to say that --retry 4013 is useful `mainly' (not `only') when following by name. 4014 Reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/273781 4015 40162006-01-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> 4017 4018 * NEWS: Document that mkfifo and mknod -m no longer set special bits. 4019 * src/copy.c: Include lchmod.h. 4020 (copy_internal): Use lchmod rather than chmod. 4021 * src/cp.c: Include lchmod.h. 4022 (re_protect, make_dir_parents_private): Use lchmod rather than chmod. 4023 * src/mkdir.c: Include lchmod.h. 4024 (usage): Clarify -m's operation. 4025 (main): Use lchmod rather than chmod. Don't use lchmod unless the 4026 new mode contains bits outside the 777 range. 4027 * src/mkfifo.c (usage): Clarify -m's operation. 4028 (main): If -m is given, don't invoke chmod; use umask 0 instead. 4029 Report an error if -m asks for bits outside the 777 range. 4030 * src/mknod.c (usage, main): Likewise. 4031 4032 * src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c, src/mknod.c: Undo 2005-12-19 changes. 4033 4034 ----- 4035 4036 Copyright (C) 2006, 2009-2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 4037 4038 Copying and distribution of this file, with or without 4039 modification, are permitted provided the copyright notice 4040 and this notice are preserved. 4041
