+ * ChangeLog: Add copyright notice.
+ * ChangeLog-1997: Likewise.
+ * NEWS: Likewise.
+
+2002-07-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.1.12.
+
+ * configure.ac: Require automake-1.6b.
+
+ * TODO: Remove entry that mentions rm's HAVE_WORKING_READDIR.
+ Since remove.c was rewritten, rm is no longer susceptible to that.
+
+2002-07-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/stat.c: Don't include malloc.h -- it was unnecessary.
+
+2002-07-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.1.11.
+
+ * src/stat.c (usage): The short form of --dereference is now -L, not -l.
+ Reported by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo.
+
+ * src/rm.c: Add new option, --presume-input-tty, for testing only.
+ Not documented.
+
+ This test might remove a file owned by the person running `make check'.
+ * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Hoist definition of $target_file, and use
+ that (not $f) in test for owner/dir/symlink. Patch by Michael Stone.
+
+ * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Handle the case in which rm produces no output.
+
+ rm would prompt for a symlink to an unwritable file
+ * src/remove.c (prompt): When not interactive, don't prompt
+ for a symlink. Reported by Dave Beckett. Patch by Michael Stone.
+ * tests/rm/dangling-symlink: Add a test for the above-fixed bug.
+
+2002-07-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use file_name_lookup, not getdport.
+ Patch by Alfred M. Szmidt.
+
+ * Makefile.maint (news-r1, news-r2): Define. Better regexp.
+ (announcement): Use them here. Also makes the line length < 80.
+
+ * Upgrade to cvs automake -- required to work with 2.53b.
+ * configure.ac: Require automake-1.6a.
+
+ * Version 4.1.10.
+
+ * Upgrade to gettext-0.11.3.
+ * Upgrade to autoconf-2.53b.
+
+2002-07-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/dircolors.hin: Add .wav.
+
+ * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Don't expect `ARGV_0=$0 exec ...' to work.
+ It doesn't work with /bin/sh of Solaris5.6.
+ Use an explicit `export ARGV_0' instead.
+ [comparing actual and expected output]: Don't match the entire line,
+ but rather just the `rm: cannot remove `$dir/$f':' part.
+
+ * tests/rm/dangling-symlink: Use input-tty rather than
+ testing for /dev/stdin.
+
+ * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add input-tty.
+ * tests/input-tty: New file.
+
+2002-07-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/dircolors.hin: Add the following to the list of colorizable
+ TERM names: dtterm xterm-color Eterm.
+ New archive suffix: .jar
+ New image suffixes: .jpeg .pbm .pgm .tiff .mpeg .xcf .xwd
+ Audio suffixes: .ogg .mp3
+ From Michael Stone.
+
+2002-07-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/stat.c (print_it): Use memcpy and a little pointer arithmetic,
+ rather than stpncpy.
+
+2002-07-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ Under some circumstances, rm would fail due to a lack of
+ permissions, but give a misleading diagnostic like this:
+ rm: cannot chdir from `.' to `foo': Not a directory
+ * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Detect the case in which unlinking a
+ non-directory fails with EPERM, and give an appropriate diagnostic.
+ Reported by Michael Stone.
+
+2002-07-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/rm/fail-eperm: New file/test, for the above.
+ * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add fail-eperm.
+
+ * src/stat.c (print_it): Use xstrdup, not strdup.
+ Use strspn to avoid an explicit loop.
+ Use fputc rather than printf "\n".
+
+ * src/stat.c: Include quote.h.
+ (print_stat): Use xreadlink, rather than using readlink directly.
+ Use the quote function rather than hard-coded double quotes.
+ Use error, not perror.
+
+2002-07-09 Martin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com>
+
+ * src/df.c (show_dev): Make the `Use%' column align with
+ its heading, even when -P is used with -h or -H.
+
+2002-07-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * man/du.x: Add a description of --exclude=PATTERN.
+ * src/du.c (usage) [--exclude]: Use PATTERN rather than PAT.
+ From Martin Michlmayr.
+
+2002-07-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ I added stat.x, but didn't update the definition of dist_man_MANS.
+ * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add stat.1.
+ (stat.1): Add dependency.
+ Reported by Michael Stone.
+
+ Ensure that the above never happens again.
+ * man/Makefile.am (check-x-vs-1): New target.
+ (check-local): Depend on check-x-vs-1.
+
+ * src/mv.c (euidaccess): Remove declaration. It was unused.
+ From Michael Stone.
+ (yesno): Remove declaration. It too was unused.
+
+2002-07-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com:
+
+ * NEWS: df now rounds all quantities up, as per POSIX.
+ This fixes a bug where df would report Size < Used.
+ * doc/coreutils.texi: Likewise.
+ * src/df.c (df_readable): Omit last arg; we always round up now.
+ All callers changed.
+
+2002-07-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ NEWS, doc/coreutils.texi:
+ New ls time style: long-iso, which generates YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM.
+ Any time style can be preceded by "posix-".
+ The default time style is now posix-long-iso instead of posix-iso.
+
+ * src/ls.c (enum time_style): Remove posix_iso_time_style.
+ Add long_iso_time_style.
+ (time_style_args, time_style_types, decode_switches): Likewise.
+ (decode_switches): If a time style is prefixed by "posix-", ignore
+ it if in the POSIX locale. Default style is now posix-long-iso.
+ (usage): Explain the above.
+
+2002-07-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/Makefile.am (envvar-check): Mark as `.PHONY'.
+
+ * src/stat.c: Remove everything associated with --secure option.
+
+2002-07-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c (prompt): Fix test for write-protectedness to also
+ check errno == EACCES. Otherwise, `rm dangling-symlink' would
+ mistakenly prompt. Reported by Mike Castle.
+
+ * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dangling-symlink.
+ * tests/rm/dangling-symlink: New file/test, for the above fix.
+
+2002-07-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/stat.c (usage): Rename --link/-l to --dereference/-L.
+ Describe --secure.
+ Describe --format.
+ (main): Support -L. Deprecate -l.
+
+2002-07-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/chgrp.c, src/chmod.c, src/chown.c, src/cp.c, src/dd.c (usage):
+ Use the PACKAGE_BUGREPORT e-mail address, rather than hard-coding it.
+ * src/df.c, src/dircolors.c, src/du.c, src/install.c: Likewise.
+ * src/link.c, src/ln.c, src/ls.c, src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c: Likewise.
+ * src/mknod.c, src/mv.c, src/rm.c, src/rmdir.c, src/shred.c: Likewise.
+ * src/stat.c, src/sync.c, src/touch.c, src/unlink.c: Likewise.
+
+2002-07-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/touch/fail-diag: Handle yet another different diagnostic.
+ Report from Volker Borchert.
+
+2002-06-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/stat.c (print_statfs): Use `fputc ('*', stdout)'
+ instead of the combination of strcat and printf.
+ (print_statfs) [!FLASK_LINUX]: Print `*' for %S and %C,
+ rather than `S' and `C'.
+ (print_stat) [!FLASK_LINUX]: Likewise.
+
+ * src/remove.c (AD_mark_current_as_unremovable): Replace dead
+ code with an assertion.
+
+2002-06-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/ls-test: Use grep, not egrep.
+
+2002-06-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c (prompt): Add a comment to help translators work
+ around the problem of making the translations of the adjective
+ `write-protected' and the corresponding run-time-variable noun
+ (e.g., file, directory, symlink, etc.) consistent. From Paul Eggert.
+
+2002-06-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/stat.c (usage): Add missing open-quote.
+ Reported by Michael Piefel.
+
+2002-06-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.1.9.
+
+ * configure.ac: Invoke AC_GNU_SOURCE very early.
+
+ * tests/rm/rm1: Accommodate the slightly different diagnostic we
+ get on some systems, due to `unlink (dir)' failing with EACCES
+ rather than EPERM. E.g. for ReiserFS on Linux-2.4.18.
+
+2002-06-21 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Makefile.maint (wget-update): Checkout into config/.
+ Warn when skipping a file.
+
+ * src/stat.c: Include sys/statvfs.h.
+ [!HAVE_SYS_STATVFS_H && !HAVE_SYS_VFS_H]: Include sys/param.h
+ and sys/mount.h, to get decl of struct statfs on NetBSD 1.5.2.
+ (NAMEMAX_FORMAT, STRUCT_STATVFS): Define.
+ (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_TYPE, SB_F_NAMEMAX): Define.
+ Remove `static' attribute from decl of program_name.
+ (human_fstype): Use f_basetype or f_fstypename if available.
+ (print_human_time): Use nstrftime and an ISO format string, in
+ place of strftime with `%c'. The latter is too locale-dependent.
+ (print_statfs): Deal with lots of portability issues: some fields
+ are available only with statfs, others only with statvfs, and
+ some are available in both, but with different types.
+ (do_statfs) [DEFAULT_FORMAT_TERSE]: Factor out.
+ [DEFAULT_FORMAT_VERBOSE]: Likewise.
+
+ * src/copy.c: Change all `preserving ...' diagnostics to
+ `failed to preserve ...' to make the failure clearer.

+ in cpp directives.
+
+2002-06-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/setgid-check: Interpret a permissions string of
+ drwxr-xr-x (DOS/Windows) as meaning the cwd is not setgid.
+ Reported by Rich Dawe.
+
+2002-05-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ Add support for new ls option --author, for GNU/Hurd.
+ Derived from a suggestion by Alfred M. Szmidt.
+
+ * doc/coreutils.texi (ls invocation), NEWS: Document this.
+ * m4/jm-macros.m4 (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Check for st_author.
+ * src/ls.c (st_author) [! HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_AUTHOR]: New macro.
+ (print_author): New var.
+ (AUTHOR_OPTION): New enum val.
+ (long_options, decode_switches, print_long_format, usage):
+ Support --author.
+ (format_user): New function.
+ (print_long_format): Use it. Make print buffer a bit bigger.
+
+2002-06-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/sample-test (trap): Make sure the temporary hierarchy is
+ writable before removing it.
+
+ * tests/mv/perm-1: New file, to demonstrate fix of 2002-06-12.
+ * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add perm-1.
+
+ * src/system.h: For GNU libc 2.2 and newer, ensure that <sys/types.h>
+ has been included before this file.
+
+2002-06-13 Richard Dawe <richdawe@bigfoot.com>
+
+ Accommodate DOS file name limitations.
+ * tests/cp/same-file: Change temp. file name: s/\.err/_err/, for DOS.
+ * tests/mv/force: Similar.
+ * tests/mv/into-self: Similar.
+ * tests/touch/no-rights: Similar.
+ * tests/mv/mv-special-1: Remove leading `.' from temp. names.
+
+2002-06-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/sys2.h (S_ISNAM): Add to list of S_IS* macros.
+ Rearrange #if directives for each S_IS macro.
+ From diffutils-2.8.2.
+
+2002-06-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/mv.c (do_move): Give one diagnostic, not two, when unable to
+ unlink a destination file. This bug was introduced in fileutils-3.16l.
+
+2002-06-07 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/mv/part-fail: Also accept the permission-denied diagnostic
+ issued by some losing systems. Reported by Volker Borchert.
+
+ * src/remove.c (remove_entry): Use DT_IS_DIR only if
+ HAVE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE is defined.
+
+2002-06-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ `rm' no longer uses explicit recursion, and as such is now able
+ to remove hierarchies of effectively unlimited depth. Prior to
+ this change, on typical systems, rm would fail (segfault) to remove
+ hierarchies of depth greater than about 25,000.
+
+ * src/remove.c: Merge in all changes from no-recursion branch.
+ See below for details.
+ * src/remove.h: Likewise.
+ * src/mv.c (do_move): Adapt to new calling sequence for rm.
+ * src/rm.c (main): Likewise.
+
+2002-06-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/rm/r-2: Adjust, now that we no longer report
+ `removing all entries of directory ...'.
+ * tests/rm/r-1: Likewise.
+
+ * src/remove.c (enum Ternary): Define type.
+ (prompt): Add a parameter. Adjust callers.
+ (remove_entry): Attempt rmdir here, only if a directory is
+ `known' to be empty. Significant rework.
+ (remove_dir): Propagate failure `up' also when rmdir fails.
+
+2002-06-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add rm5.
+ * tests/rm/rm5: New test.
+
+2002-05-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ In interactive mode, prompt only once about an empty directory.
+ * src/remove.c (enum Prompt_action): Define.
+ (prompt): Two new parameters. Adjust all callers.
+
+ Performance.
+ * src/remove.c (remove_entry) [!ROOT_CAN_UNLINK_DIRS]:
+ Don't call rmdir here.
+
+2002-05-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): Don't use errno (it's not valid)
+ in diagnostic for changed dev/ino.
+ (remove_entry): Tweak diagnostic.
+
+2002-05-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c (ROOT_CAN_UNLINK_DIRS): Define.
+ (AD_pop_and_chdir): Propagate status as we traverse back `up' the tree.
+ (DO_UNLINK, DO_RMDIR): Define.
+ (remove_entry) [ROOT_CAN_UNLINK_DIRS]: Add code so this works also on
+ systems where root can use `unlink' to remove directories.
+
+2002-05-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/mv/mv-special-1: Adapt for changed format of --verbose output.
+
+2002-05-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c: Include file-type.h.
+ Include file type in prompt when asking whether to remove file.
+ Based on a patch from Paul Eggert.
+
+ * src/remove.c (prompt): Add comment.
+
+ * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Fix another (known) leak.
+
+ * tests/rm/rm3: Don't depend on order of traversal of dir entries.
+ It is nondeterministic on some types of filesystems.
+
+ * src/remove.c (hash_freer): New function.
+ (AD_mark_helper): Use it.
+ (AD_mark_as_unremovable): xstrdup the filename argument.
+ (remove_dir): Free directory name.
+
+ * src/remove.c (remove_entry): Fail also when trying to remove a
+ directory without the --recursive option.
+ Change a diagnostic, s/unlink/remove/, now that it can apply also
+ to a directory.
+
+ * src/remove.c (is_empty_dir): New function.
+ (prompt): New function, factored out of...
+ (remove_entry): ...here. Call it.
+ (remove_dir): Call prompt before rmdir.
+
+ * src/remove.c (remove_entry): Add support for prompting (e.g., -i).
+
+ * src/remove.h (UPDATE_STATUS): New macro.
+ Include save-cwd.h.
+ (struct File_spec): Remove declaration.
+ Update prototypes.
+
+ * src/remove.c [AD_ent] (status): New member. This lets us propagate
+ the status from a subdirectory to its parent via AD_pop_and_chdir.
+ (AD_push_initial): Set it.
+ (AD_push): Likewise.
+ (remove_cwd_entries): Change return type to enum RM_status, and
+ adjust all callers.
+ (rm): Use UPDATE_STATUS rather than open-coding it.
+
+ * src/remove.c (remove_entry): New function, factored out of...
+ (remove_cwd_entries): ...here, and...
+ (rm_1): ...here.
+
+ * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Add support for --verbose.
+ (remove_dir): Likewise.
+ (rm_1): Likewise.
+
+2002-05-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/rm/rm3: New file.
+ * tests/rm/rm4: New file.
+ * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add rm3 and rm4.
+
+2002-05-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/rm/rm1: New file.
+ * tests/rm/rm2: New file.
+ * tests/rm/unread2: New file.
+ * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add rm1, rm2, and unread2.
+
+ * src/remove.h (enum RM_status) [RM_NONEMPTY_DIR]: New member.
+
+2002-05-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c (rm): Free cwd_state, if necessary.
+
+2002-05-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c (rm_1): Remove now useless (always true)
+ user_specified_name parameter. Adjust sole caller.
+
+ * src/remove.c (rm): New function. This interface allows
+ one to remove multiple arguments at a time. This is important in
+ that it allows us to hide the remove_init/remove_fini functions and
+ the cwd_state parameter.
+ (rm_1): Renamed from rm.
+ (remove_init, remove_fini): Remove functions. Each body is now
+ part of `rm'.
+ * src/remove.h (rm): Update prototype.
+
+2002-06-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/ls.c: Remove use of D_TYPE_IN_DIRENT, now that that symbol
+ has been renamed.
+
+2002-05-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Use a temporary to avoid a warning
+ from gcc -W about comparison between signed and unsigned.
+ (copy_internal): Likewise, but use a cast.
+
+2002-05-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/sys2.h (S_ISREG, S_ISDIR): Define if not already defined.
+ (S_TYPEISSEM, S_TYPEISSHM, S_TYPEISTMO): Likewise.
+
+ * src/ls.c (S_ISLNK, S_ISFIFO, S_ISSOCK, S_ISCHR, S_ISBLK, S_ISDOOR):
+ Remove definitions.
+ * src/sys2.c (S_ISLNK, S_ISFIFO, S_ISSOCK, S_ISCHR, S_ISBLK, S_ISDOOR):
+ Define here instead.
+
+2002-04-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c (cycle_check): New function containing code factored
+ out of remove_dir. The sole difference is that upon detecting a
+ cycle, rm now dies unconditionally. Before, in interactive mode,
+ it would ask the user whether to continue.
+ (remove_dir): Call cycle_check.
+
+2002-04-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ Avoid new warnings from gcc.
+ * src/dd.c: Declare input_file and output_file to be `const'.
+ (skip): Declare `file' parameter to be `const', too.
+
+ Remove hash table, active_dir_map, used to detect directory cycles.
+ Instead, detect them lazily with just O(1) memory.
+ Suggestion from Andi Kleen.
+ * src/remove.c (is_power_of_two): New function.
+ (print_nth_dir, make_active_dir_ent): Remove functions.
+ (hash_active_dir_ent, hash_compare_active_dir_ents): Likewise.
+ (remove_dir): Check for cycles here, ...
+ (rm): ... and don't check for cycles here.
+
+ * src/remove.c (rm): Call fspec_get_full_mode here, rather than
+ fspec_get_filetype_mode. We want to get the dev/ino earlier, and
+ at the same time as when we get the file type, to avoid the risk
+ that an attacker would change e.g. a directory to a symlink before
+ we record its dev/ino.
+
+ * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove intl/Makefile.
+ (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Add external arg.
+
+ * intl/: Remove directory.
+ * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove intl.
+ (DISTCLEANFILES): Remove definition.
+
+ * src/sys2.h: Remove ENABLE_NLS-related code.
+ (_, N_) Remove definitions.
+ Include "gettext.h" instead.
+
+ * src/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Remove -I../intl.
+
+2002-04-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c (rm): Call exit with EXIT_FAILURE, not `1'.
+
+2002-04-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/cp/*: Clean up.
+
+ * tests/sample-test: Use a temporary directory named
+ `basename $0`.tmp/$$. Create with mkdir -p.
+
+ * tests/cp/backup-1: Use better trap, etc.
+ * tests/mkdir/p-2: Use better trap.
+ * tests/mkdir/p-1: Likewise.
+ * tests/mkdir/concurrent-1: Likewise.
+
+ * tests/rm/deep-1: Set $tmp the new way.
+
+ * tests/rm/ir-1: Use `rm', not $RM. Use better trap.
+ * tests/rm/i-1: Likewise.
+ * tests/rm/f-1: Likewise.
+
+ * tests/sample-test: Use automatically-derived name for temporary
+ directory. This is more 8.3-friendly. Based on a suggestion from
+ Richard Dawe.
+
+ * tests/sample-test: New file.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add sample-test.
+
+2002-04-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/touch.c (touch): Don't report errors for nonexistent files
+ when --no-create is in effect. Based on a patch from TAKAI Kousuke.
+ * tests/touch/no-create-missing: New file/test for above.
+ * tests/touch/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add no-create-missing.
+
+2002-04-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/stat.c: Add copyright comment.
+ (human_fstype): Rename from print_human_fstype, and rework accordingly.
+ (print_statfs): Use human_fstype to honor format width on %T.
+
+2002-04-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ Handle "lld" vs "ld" printf formats the same way Bash does.
+ * src/stat.c: Include inttypes.h.
+ (PRIdMAX, PRIuMAX): Define, if not already defined.
+ (print_statfs): Use those macros, not the literal strings.
+ (print_stat): Likewise.
+ Suggestion from Paul Eggert.
+
+ * src/stat.c (print_human_fstype): Add missing `break;'
+ for `case S_MAGIC_MINIX:'.
+
+2002-04-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+

+
+ * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add stat.
+ (noinst_HEADERS): Add fs.h.
+
+ * src/stat.c [HAVE_SYS_VFS_H]: Guard incluion of sys/vfs.h.

+ Remove lots of #if directives involving FLASK_LINUX
+ [!FLASK_LINUX] (is_flask_enabled): Define.
+ (stat_secure, lstat_secure): Define.
+ (print_statfs): Remove lots of nested #if directives.
+ Instead, rely on support fo %llu and %lld printf formats --
+ but that is only temporary, since it's not porable enough.
+ (main): Hoist is_flask_enabled test to be done here, rather
+ than in each of do_stat and do_statfs for every argument.
+
+2002-04-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

+ Declare most functions to be `static'.
+
+2002-04-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/Makefile.am (LDADD): List ../lib/libfetish.a both before
+ and after @LIBINTL@. Thanks to Paul Eggert for the fix and to
+ Bruno Haible for diagnosing the problem.
+
+ * src/link.c: Include long-options.h.

+ Tweak a diagnostic.
+ Use EXIT_FAILURE rather than a literal `1'.
+ * src/unlink.c: Likewise.
+ (main): If POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, don't recognize --help or --version,
+ so the program can operate on a file with one of those names.
+
+2002-04-11 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ New programs link and unlink.
+
+ * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add link and unlink.
+ * src/link.c, src/unlink.c: New files, from Debian's fileutils_4.1-10.
+ Written by Michael Stone.
+
+ * man/link.x: New file.

+ * tests/mv/mv-special-1: Fix typo in VERBOSE=yes handling.
+ Reported by Richard Dawe.
+
+2002-03-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.1.8.
+
+ * tests/mv/i-link-no: Use --reply=no rather than -i.
+ The latter depends on whether stdin is a tty and hence would
+ fail in some situations where --reply=no doesn't.
+
+ * src/mv.c (do_move): Correct a comment.
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Move the block that sets `earlier_file'
+ down to just before the first use of that variable. Otherwise, it was
+ possible to make mv (and probably cp, too) malfunction when copying
+ hard-linked files into a directory containing at least one of the
+ source file names. Call forget_created everywhere thereafter where
+ this function returns without creating a destination file that might
+ subsequently be linked. Reported by Iida Yosiaki.
+ * src/cp-hash.c (forget_created): New function.
+ * src/cp-hash.h (forget_created): Prototype.
+
+ * tests/mv/i-link-no: New test for the above.
+ Based on an example from Iida Yosiaki.
+ * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add i-link-no.
+
+2002-03-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal) [move_mode]: Give a better diagnostic,
+ by using errno from the failed unlink, when a cross-device `mv'
+ fails, e.g., because the destination cannot be unlinked.
+ Prompted by a report from Karl Berry.
+ * tests/mv/part-fail: New test for the above.
+ * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add part-fail.
+
+2002-03-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/Makefile.am (datadir): Don't override $(datadir)
+ which might be set by --datadir and different from $(prefix)/share.
+ Patch from Albert Chin-A-Young.
+
+2002-03-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.1.7.
+
+ * src/ln.c (main): Change wording in diagnostic.
+ * src/cp.c (do_copy): Likewise.
+ * src/install.c (strip): Likewise.
+ Suggestions from Santiago Vila.
+
+ * Use autoconf-2.53. Regenerate dependent files.
+
+ * Makefile.maint (GZIP, BZIP2): Remove definitions.
+ ($(my_distdir).tar.bz2): Remove rule. Now, it's built by `make dist'.
+
+ * configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Specify the required version
+ of automake (1.6), and options (gnits dist-bzip2), rather than...
+ * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ...here. Remove definition.
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't exit upon finding a replaced file.
+ Instead, just skip it like the diagnostic says.
+ Reported by Paul Eggert.
+
+2002-03-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Use a more concise diagnostic for
+ reporting replaced files. This avoids a bug in the code,
+ which mishandled ino_t wider than long.
+ * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Likewise, twice.
+
+2002-03-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove config/config.rpath,
+ now that automake knows about it.
+
+2002-03-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ Don't allow a malicious user to trick another user's rm process into
+ removing unintended files. In one scenario, if root is removing a
+ hierarchy that is writable by the malicious user, that user may trick
+ root into removing all of `/'. Reported by Wojciech Purczynski.
+
+ * src/remove.c (remove_dir): After chdir `..', call lstat to get the
+ dev/inode of "." and fail if they aren't the same as the old numbers.
+ (remove_cwd_entries): New parameter, `cwd_dev_ino'.
+ (remove_dir): Likewise.
+ (rm): Likewise.
+ Adjust all callers.
+ * src/mv.c (do_move): The first time we resort to copy/remove,
+ call lstat `.' to get the device/inode numbers now required for rm.
+ * src/rm.c (main): Call lstat `.' to get the device/inode numbers
+ now required for rm.
+ * src/remove.h (struct dev_ino): Declare new type.
+ (rm): Add a parameter to the prototype.
+
+2002-03-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Use automake-1.6. Regenerate dependent files.
+
+2002-03-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add config/config.rpath.
+
+2002-03-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Makefile.maint (tgz-size): Also handle a suffix of `K', since
+ the sizes in the output of `du -h' now look like `29K'
+
+2002-03-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.1.6.
+
+2002-03-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ Make cp -r equivalent to cp -R. Add a new cp option --copy-contents
+ for people who want to emulate the traditional (and rarely desirable)
+ cp -r behavior.
+
+ * src/cp.c (COPY_CONTENTS_OPTION): New enum value.
+ (long_opts): Add --copy-contents.
+ (usage): Describe new behavior. Sort options.
+ (main): Implement new behavior. Remove diagnostics for -a and -r;
+ no longer needed.
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Remove -r warning; no longer needed.
+
+ * NEWS: Document this.
+
+2002-03-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): For each symlink copied by cp -r,
+ issue a warning that `cp -r' is not portable.
+
+ * src/cp.c (main): Revert change of 2001-12-29. With this change,
+ cp -r once again preserves symlinks.
+ (usage): Document the original (now-restored) behavior.
+ * tests/cp/r-vs-symlink: Reflect changed semantics of cp's -r option.
+
+ * src/cp.c (main): Warn when -r is specified before --archive (-a).
+ * src/cp.c (main): Fail when -r is specified after --archive (-a)
+ on the command line.
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Detect abuse of a race condition
+ whereby an unprivileged user could gain read access to otherwise-
+ inaccessible files when root uses cp or mv to copy a hierarchy
+ belonging to that user.
+
+2002-02-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/ls.c (decode_switches, usage): Add --time-style=+FORMAT.
+ * doc/coreutils.texi (Formatting file timestamps): Document it.
+
+2002-02-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ Add ACL support to 'ls' for HP-UX and Unixware, and try to
+ establish a framework for adding it for other hosts.
+ This builds on a suggestion of Andreas Gruenbacher.
+
+ * lib/Makefile.am (libfetish_a_SOURCES): Add acl.h, acl.c.
+ * lib/acl.h, lib/acl.c, m4/acl.m4: New files.
+ * m4/jm-macros.m4 (jm_MACROS): Require AC_FUNC_ACL.
+ Do not check for acl or sys/acl.h, as AC_FUNC_ACL does that now.
+ * src/ls.c: Include "acl.h" rather than <sys/acl.h>.
+ (USE_ACL): Remove; replaced by HAVE_ACL everywhere.
+ (gobble_file): Use file_has_acl rather than doing it ourselves.
+
+2002-02-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/touch.c: Include posixver.h.
+ (usage): Document only the intersection of the old and new behaviors,
+ to encourage portability.
+ (main): Use `posix2_version ()' in place of POSIX2_VERSION.
+
+2002-02-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * ABOUT-NLS, intl/*: Update to Gettext 0.11.
+ * INSTALL: Update to Autoconf 2.52h.
+
+ * src/Makefile.am (datadir): Use `share' in place of @DATADIRNAME@,
+ per Gettext-0.11.
+ (LDADD): Use @LIBINTL@ instead of @INTLLIBS@, per Gettext-0.11.
+
+ * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): New macro invocation.
+ (ALL_LINGUAS): Remove: now in po/LINGUAS as per Gettext 0.11.
+
+ * config: New subdirectory, containing the following files from .:
+ config.guess, config.sub, depcomp, missing, install-sh, mkinstalldirs.
+ Move the following files here from doc: texinfo.tex, mdate-sh.
+
+2002-02-16 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/ls/infloop: Use `head -n 7', not `head -7'.
+ * tests/rm/hash: Likewise.
+
+2002-02-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * configure.in (ALL_LINGUAS): Add Hungarian (hu).
+
+2002-02-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/shred.c: (VERBOSE_UPDATE): Update every 5 seconds, not every 10.
+ (wipename): Quote file names only when necessary.
+ (main): Copy quoted string into malloc'd storage so it doesn't
+ get clobbered when using -u and --verbose.
+
+ Minor clean-up.
+ * src/shred.c:
+ Use `NULL' rather than `(time_t *) 0'.
+ (dopass): Use STREQ in place of strcmp.
+ Add parentheses around use of nested ternary operator.
+
+2002-01-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/shred.c (VERBOSE_UPDATE): Now counts seconds, not bytes.
+
+ (dopass): If verbose, output a line every VERBOSE_UPDATE seconds,
+ and suppress duplicate output lines. Output a percentage as well
+ as a count of bytes.
+
+ Also, fix comment/code typo regarding how many bytes have been
+ written; this typo was harmless before, but is no longer harmless with
+ the above change in effect.
+
+2002-02-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/remove.c (rm): Add a comment.
+
+2002-01-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

+
+2002-01-21 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * po/POTFILES.in: Add lib/xmemcoll.c
+
+ * src/chown-core.c: Don't include "xalloc.h", as system.h already
+ does that via sys2.h.
+ * src/ls.c: Likewise.
+ * src/shred.c: Likewise.
+
+2002-01-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/ls.c: Avoid undefined behavior when strcoll fails,
+ by resorting the directory with strcmp instead.
+
+ Include <setjmp.h>.
+ Include "quote.h".
+ (compare_atime, rev_cmp_atime, compare_ctime, rev_cmp_ctime,
+ compare_mtime, rev_cmp_mtime, compare_size, rev_comp_size,
+ compare_name, rev_cmp_name, compare_extension, rev_cmp_extension,
+ compare_version, rev_compare_version): Move before use, so that
+ we can remove the forward declaration. Reimplement in terms of
+ the new functions described below, using xstrcoll instead of strcoll.
+ (failed_strcoll): New var.
+ (xstrcoll): New function.
+ (V): New type.
+ (cmp_ctime, compstr_ctime, rev_str_ctime): New functions.
+ (cmp_mtime, compstr_mtime, rev_str_mtime): Likewise.
+ (cmp_atime, compstr_atime, rev_str_atime): Likewise.

+ (cmp_name, compstr_name, rev_str_name): Likewise.
+ (cmp_extension, compstr_extension, rev_str_extension): Likewise.
+ (sort_files): Use prototype for internal function var.
+ If the strcoll-based comparison fails, fall back on a strcmp-based one.
+
+2002-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ Ensure that the two version numbers in configure.ac remain in sync.
+ * Makefile.maint (local-check): Depend on ac-check.
+ (ac_p_pkg, AC_INIT_PKG): Define.
+ (ac_p_ver, AC_INIT_VER): Define.
+ (ac-check): New rule.
+
+2002-01-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * configure.ac: Remove code that set LIBOBJS in support of ansi2knr.
+ The latest version of autoconf objected to it, and besides, I don't
+ care too much about K&R support these days.
+
+2002-01-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/touch.c (main): Issue a warning for obsolete usage, unless
+ POSIXLY_CORRECT.
+
+2002-01-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ Add support for POSIX 1003.1-2001, which requires removal for
+ support of the obsolete `touch [-acm] MMDDhhmm[YY] FILE...' syntax.
+
+ * NEWS: Document this.
+ * src/touch.c (usage, main): Implement this.
+
+2002-01-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ Avoid giving a misleading diagnostic in some unusual cases.
+ Instead, give one that makes sense.
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't treat errno==ENOENT as a special case.
+ (same_file_ok): Detect a case that would have lead to the errno==ENOENT
+ condition above (and a misleading diagnostic), and return 0 so we give
+ a diagnostic about the source and destination being the same file.
+ (copy_internal): Use an explicit test for errno==EXDEV to detect
+ that rename has failed because source and destination are on
+ different devices. This reverts part of a change from 1997-12-13,
+ and is to avoid letting a race condition evoke a bogus diagnostic.
+ Note that while POSIX has encouraged the errno==EXDEV test for
+ years, it was inadequate back in 1997. I'm hoping that many
+ more systems have conforming support these days.
+ Reported by Michael Gaughen <mgaughen@polyserve.com>
+
+ * src/shred.c (usage): Also mention Ext3.
+ Suggestion from Göran Uddeborg.
+
+2002-01-06 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
+
+ * src/ls.c (long_time_format): Extend translator comments.
+
+2002-01-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.1.5.
+
+2001-12-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/cp.c (main): With -r, always dereference symlinks.
+ Reported by Christian Harkort. Patch by Chris J. Bednar.
+
+ * tests/cp/r-vs-symlink: New file to test for the above fix.
+ * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add r-vs-symlink.
+
+2001-12-21 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/shred.c [!HAVE_CONFIG_H]: Remove cpp block that duplicated
+ code in lib/ in order to facilitate compiling this program without
+ config.h.
+
+2001-12-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/shred.c: Add FSF copyright notice.
+
+2001-12-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ Use notation compatible with SI and with IEC 60027-2.
+ For example, --block-size=1MB now means --block-size=1000000,
+ whereas --block-size=1MiB now means --block-size=1048576.
+ A trailing `B' now means decimal, not binary; this is a silent change.
+ -H or --si now outputs the trailing 'B', for consistency with this.
+ Programs now output trailing 'K' (not 'k') to mean 1024.
+ New df, du short option -B is short for --block-size.
+ You can omit an integer `1' before a block size suffix,
+ e.g. `df -BG' is equivalent to `df -B 1G' and to `df --block-size=1G'.
+
+ * NEWS, doc/coreutils.texi: Document this. Remove documentation
+ for obsolescent constructs MD, --kilobytes, -m or --megabytes.
+
+ * src/dd.c (usage, parse_integer): Prefer K to k for 1024.
+ * src/shred.c (usage, main): Likewise.
+
+ * src/shred.c (xstrtoumax): If there is no number but there
+ is a valid suffix, assume 1. "MB" now means decimal, "MiB" binary.
+ Accept 'K' as well as 'k'.
+
+ * src/dd.c (usage): MD -> MB for decimal.
+
+ * src/df.c (BLOCK_SIZE_OPTION): Remove; no longer needed now that
+ we have 'B'.
+ (long_options, usage, main): Add -B.
+ (usage): Deprecate --kilobytes, -m, --megabytes.
+ Document size suffixes.
+ * src/du.c: Likewise.
+ * src/ls.c (usage): Deprecate --kilobytes. Document size suffixes.
+
+ * src/df.c (print_header, show_dev): Enlarge column widths for
+ trailing "B".
+
+2001-12-17 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Makefile.maint (real_dir): Remove unused variable.
+ (url_dir_list): Don't set define it here, but...
+ * Makefile.cfg (url_dir_list): ...define it here instead.
+ (hosts, a_host, b_host): Remove now-unused variables.
+ (alpha_subdir, a_url_dir, b_url_dir): Remove now-unused variables.
+
+2001-12-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

+
+ * tests/touch/fail-diag: Also accept SunOS4's `Not owner' diagnostic.
+ Reported by Volker Borchert.
+
+ * tests/help-version: Fail also if ./$i --version fails.
+ Run each --help and --version test with a few different settings
+ of LC_MESSAGES. Prompted by a report from Nelson Beebe.
+
+2001-12-11 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ Include the word `fail' in some diagnostics to make it clearer
+ that they indicate a failure.

+ Suggestion from Karl Berry.
+
+2001-12-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/dd.c (buggy_lseek_support): Remove function.
+ (skip_via_lseek) [__linux__]: New function.
+ (skip): Use skip_via_lseek, not buggy_lseek_support.
+ Based on an outline from Paul Eggert.
+
+2001-12-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * configure.in (ALL_LINGUAS): Add Estonian (et).
+
+2001-12-08 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Makefile.cfg (wget_files): Remove ansi2knr.c, since it's
+ no longer available at that location.
+
+2001-12-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/chgrp/basic: Don't use diff's -u option. It's not portable.
+ Besides, with GNU diff one can use the DIFF_OPTIONS envvar.
+ * tests/ls/no-arg: Likewise.
+ * tests/ls/recursive: Likewise.
+ * tests/ls/rt-1: Likewise.
+
+2001-12-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.1.3.
+
+ * src/sys2.h (HELP_OPTION_DESCRIPTION): New macro.

+ Use new macros, HELP_OPTION_DESCRIPTION and VERSION_OPTION_DESCRIPTION
+ instead of hard-coding --help and --version descriptions.
+
+ * POTFILES.in: Add src/sys2.h.
+
+ * src/touch.c (touch): Extend the change of 2001-09-15 to work on
+ systems for which errno is set to EPERM in that case. Thus, e.g.,
+ `touch /' by non-root gives a better diagnostic on systems like SunOS4.
+ Reported by Volker Borchert.
+
+ Don't emulate dd's skip=N for *all* character devices; lseek works
+ just fine on non-tape character devices like /dev/mem and /dev/kmem.
+ * src/dd.c (buggy_lseek_support) [__linux__]: Emulate `skip=N'
+ behavior using reads, not lseek for Linux tape devices (major == 9).
+ Kernel lseek support for tapes is broken, up to and including
+ linux-2.4.16. Reported by Herbert Xu.
+
+2001-11-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/ls/rt-1: Compare all lines of output.
+ Update code to use `trap' and more up to date infrastructure.
+
+ The change of 2001-11-01 introduced a bug whereby some recursive
+ listings didn't have a blank line between per-directory groups of files.
+ * src/ls.c (print_dir): Print a newline before each directory name
+ except the first one, rather than after each except the last, since
+ now (after the changes of 2001-11-01) detecting whether a `pending*'
+ is the last would involve more work. Reported by Andreas Schwab.
+ * tests/ls/recursive: New file. Test for the above.
+ * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add recursive.
+
+ This change has no net effect.
+ * src/ls.c (main): Remove always-true conjunct and add a comment.
+
+2001-11-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/shred.c: Don't include "gtod.h"

+
+2001-11-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Makefile.maint: Include signatures for the xdelta file, too.

+ Make ls -R detect directory cycles.
+ Add loop detection without incurring an additional stat call per
+ directory processed. To detect loops efficiently (i.e., time: +O(1)
+ per directory processed by ls -R, total additional space:
+ O(max-tree-depth)), record the dev/ino of each `active' directory
+ in a hash table. To know when a directory is no longer active,
+ insert a marker (name == NULL) entry for it in the pending queue.
+ When a marker comes to the front of the queue, that directory is no
+ longer active, and must be removed from the hash table. To remove it,
+ we need to know its dev/ino again. Since by the time a directory
+ has become inactive its files[] info is long gone and it's DIR*
+ is closed, I must either save the dev/ino someplace (pending seemed
+ logical) or recompute them via stat.
+
+ The following change will convert to using a stack of dev/ino pairs
+ instead, pushing an entry when doing the opendir (use fstat on
+ dirfd (reading)), and popping (when encountering a marker) to get
+ the dev/ino pair to be removed from the hash table.

+
+ * src/du.c (count_entry): Don't omit the size of a directory entry

+
+2000-11-11 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.0.32.

+ Solaris2.5.1's /bin/sh.
+
+ * tests/mkdir/perm: Don't put a newline in IFS; that's not portable to

+
+ * tests/lang-default: Add all the internationalization-related

+
+ `mkdir -p' would create parent directories with permissions
+ that did not account for the umask. [introduced with the
+ 2000-09-30 change that became part of fileutils-4.0.28]
+ * src/mkdir.c: Include dirname.h.
+ Compute the parent directory `mode' unconditionally, effectively
+ as `$(umask -S),u+wx'.
+ Use make_path to create only the parent directories, thus using
+ the same code, both with and without -p, to create the final
+ component in each file name. Reported by Bob Proulx.
+
+ Add tests for the above fix.
+ * tests/cp/cp-parents: Add some permission tests.
+ * tests/mkdir/perm: Fix the test so it actually does something.

+ on the parent directories.
+
+2000-10-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * doc/getdate.texi: Use @sc where appropriate. Document the

+ of alphabetic time zone names, as it wasn't correct and people
+ shouldn't be relying on it anyway. Relative items also

+
+ * src/cp.c (do_copy): When constructing dst_path for use with the

+ line argument. Otherwise, tests/cp/cp-parent would fail on NetBSD.
+
+ * tests/cp/cp-parents: Add a test.
+
+ * src/ls.c (DT_INIT): Define.

+ Reported by John David Anglin.
+
+ * tests/lang-default (LC_COLLATE): Set it to the empty string and

+
+2000-10-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+

+ (print_dir): Set `type' from directory entry, if possible.
+ (gobble_file): Add a parameter, TYPE.
+ Stat the file only if its type is unknown and we need the type.
+ Patch from Ulrich Drepper.
+
+ Shred can now determine the size of a block devices (e.g. /dev/fd0)
+ by writing until a write operation fails.
+
+ * src/shred.c: Include assert.h.
+ (fillrand): Add a parameter, size_max.
+ Adjust caller.
+ Add an assertion.
+ (dopass): Break out of the `for (;;)' loop if size < offset.
+ That can happen now that dopass is called with SIZE == -1.
+ (do_wipefd): Accept a length of zero only for a regular file.
+ If lseek fails or returns 0 for a non-regular file, let dopass
+ determine the length.
+ Inspired by a patch from Alan Iwi.

+
+ * tests/mv/part-symlink: Redirect stdout to stderr before trying to

+ * tests/cp/same-file: Likewise.

+
+ * tests/cp/same-file: Add new tests using cp's --rem option.
+ Reflect the fact that cp's -f option no longer causes cp to remove the

+ (do_copy): Use unlink_dest_after_failed_open member, not `force.'
+ (cp_option_init): Initialize new members.
+ (main): Handle UNLINK_DEST_BEFORE_OPENING (aka --remove-destination).
+
+ * src/mv.c: Remove obsolete comment block.
+ (cp_option_init): Initialize new members.
+ (usage): Reflect the fact that --force (-f) relates only to whether
+ mv prompts.
+ (main): Remove uses of old `force' option member.
+
+ * src/install.c (cp_option_init): Reflect
+
+ `force' no longer means unlink-dest-before-opening
+ * src/copy.h (struct cp_options) [force]: Remove member.
+ [unlink_dest_before_opening]: Add member. `cp -f' and `mv -f' used to
+ do this. Now, you must use `cp --remove-destination' to get this
+ behavior. Now, `cp -f' and `mv -f' work as required by POSIX.
+ [unlink_dest_after_failed_open]: Add member.
+ Paul Eggert reported that `cp -f' removes an existing destination
+ file unconditionally, and that is contrary to POSIX.
+
+ * src/copy.c (same_file_ok): New function, extracted from copy_internal,
+ and rewritten.
+ (copy_internal): Unlink destination file when unlink_dest_before_opening
+ option is set, and when the source is neither a regular file nor a
+ directory.
+
+ * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add part-symlink.
+
+ * src/ls.c: Use strcoll (not strcmp) when comparing file names.
+ Suggestion from Ulrich Drepper.
+
+2000-08-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_reg): New parameters: X and NEW_DST.
+ Remove the SPARSE_MODE parameter. Update caller.
+ Perform POSIX-mandated (for cp) open-with-O_WRONLY|O_TRUNC when copying
+ a regular source file and the destination file exists; upon failure,
+ unlink that existing file, then open again, but with O_WRONLY|O_CREAT.
+ (copy_internal): `force' is not related to interactive; remove
+ the conjunct.
+ Remove the entire `else if (x->force)' block; justifying
+ removal of the non-directory part is easy: POSIX requires we try
+ to open an existing regular file, so we can't unlink it beforehand.
+ The part that changes the mode on a directory to allow overwriting
+ isn't necessary.
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Rename two goto labels.
+ (copy_internal): Set `new_dst' when the move_mode rename fails,
+ since we then unlink the destination file.
+
+ * src/cp.c (usage): --force is independent of --interactive.
+
+2000-08-24 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ Put back the kludge. It's necessary after all.
+ * src/dd.c (buggy_lseek_support): New function.

+ even though it fails.
+
+ * install-sh: Double quote as needed, to protect against arguments
+ containing spaces or shell metacharacters. Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+2000-08-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/dd/not-rewound: New test, for the SEEK_CUR vs. SEEK_SET part

+ * tests/dd/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add not-rewound.
+
+2000-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/dd.c (skip):
+ Assume lseek failed if it returned zero, since a zero return is
+ impossible and some buggy drivers return zero.
+
+ Use SEEK_CUR rather than SEEK_SET; this fixes a bug when the
+ file descriptor is not currently rewound.
+
+2000-08-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>

+ * src/copy.h (enum Dereference_symlink): Define.
+ (struct cp_options) [dereference]: Change type to Dereference_symlink.
+ * src/copy.c: Declare lstat.
+ (copy_dir): Set `xstat' member to lstat so that with `-H' we don't
+ follow symlinks found via recursive traversal.
+ Update uses of `dereference' to compare against new enum member names.
+ * src/cp.c (long_opts): Add --dereference, -L.
+ (usage): Describe -L and -H.
+ (cp_option_init): Initialize to DEREF_UNDEFINED, not `1'.

+ [case 'a']: Initialize `dereference' to DEREF_NEVER, not 0.
+ [case 'd']: Likewise.
+ [case 'H']: New case.
+ [case 'L']: New case.

+
+2000-08-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/copy.c (DO_CHOWN): Do not make a special case for non-root.
+ POSIX.2 requires that cp -p and mv attempt to set the uid of the
+ destination file, even if you're not root. This affects behavior
+ only on hosts that let you give files away via chmod.
+ * NEWS: Describe the above change.
+
+2000-08-15 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+

+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Move declaration of local, `n_read', into

+
+2000-08-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/copy.c (get_dest_mode): Rename from new_nondir_mode.
+ Honor the umask for `cp', but not for `mv' or `cp -p'.
+ (copy_reg): New 4th parameter, dst_mode. Pass it as 3rd arg. to open.
+ (copy_internal): Change type of locals `src_mode' and `src_type' from
+ int to mode_t.
+ Remove unnecessary local, `fix_mode'.
+ Combine two if-stmts into one.
+ Pass `src_mode' as 4th arg to copy_reg.
+ If we've just created a new regular file, return early, skipping the
+ chmod step. copy_reg now sets permissions of such files upon creation.
+ Use get_dest_mode, so there's just one chmod call here.

+
+ Begin converting "`%s'" in format strings to "%s", and wrap each
+ corresponding argument in a `quote (...)' call -- if there's only one.
+ If there are two or more, then use `quote_n (0, ...),
+ quote_n (1, ...), ...'.
+
+ Here's the justification, from Paul Eggert (thanks, Paul):
+
+ [Consider] the following, taken from fileutils/copy.c:
+
+ error (0, errno, _("cannot create directory `%s'"), dst_path);
+
+ Now, suppose dst_path is "/'\nrm: removing all files under `/"
+ (expressed in C string syntax). This will cause the user to see
+ the following delightfully ambiguous display:
+
+ cp: cannot create directory `/'
+ rm: removing all files under `/'
+
+ It would be better to rewrite the above line to be something
+ like this:
+
+ error (0, errno, _("cannot create directory %s"), quote (dst_path));
+
+ using the definition of "quote" [in lib/quote.c]. That way,
+ the user will see the following unambiguous display instead:
+
+ cp: cannot create directory `/\'\nrm: removing all files under `/'
+
+ One might object that any user who asks to copy a file with
+ a weird name like that deserves to get confused. But this
+ is not a good objection, as the source of the string may not
+ be under the user's control, or even visible to the user.
+
+ * src/copy.c: Adapt format strings and args as above. Include quote.h.
+ I have deliberately not changed the output of --verbose.
+ FIXME: maybe I should.
+ * src/cp.c: Likewise.
+ * src/remove.c: Likewise.

+ Save device number as well as inode number for each directory,

+
+ * po/Makefile.in.in (dist distdir): Don't use `ln' (which was just a

+2000-02-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * Version 4.0q.
+
+ * src/sys2.h: Guard declaration of strtoull also with

+
+ * src/sys2.h: Use `#if !HAVE_DECL...' instead of `#ifndef HAVE_DECL...'

+
+ Tranform the generated src/Makefile.in file so it falls back on
+ using /bin/rm when necessary. The old rule didn't always work.

+
+2000-02-11 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * src/df.c (main): Count the stat'able arguments.

+
+2000-02-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ Make du work when invoked from an unreadable directory.

+2000-02-09 Jim Meyering <meyering@lucent.com>
+
+ * tests/mv/mv-special-1: Use $null and $dir in place of literals
+ in `here' script.
+ Exit 77 if we can't set up the framework (Volker Borchert reported

+
+1999-12-19 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * Version 4.0l.
+
+ * doc/fileutils.texi: Clarify and combine descriptions of -c and of
+ --time=ctime.
+ Likewise for -u/--time=atime.
+
+ * src/ls.c [! LSTAT_FOLLOWS_SLASHED_SYMLINK]: Use lstat wrapper.
+ [Notice the new configure-time test in m4/lstat-slash.m4. ]
+ (main): Back out change from 1999-02-19 that made ls remove
+ trailing slashes from command line arguments to accommodate early
+ versions of Linux. Now, `ls symlink-to-dir/' acts like
+ `ls symlink-to-dir/.' thus following the symbolic link, as POSIX says
+ it should. Suggestion from Bruno Haible and Andreas Schwab.
+
+ * lib/xstat.in (slash_aware_lstat): New function.
+ (rpl_@xstat@): Use it.
+ * lib/Makefile.am (lstat.c): Adapt rule to handle new parts of xstat.in.

+ * tests/ls/symlink-slash: New test, for above-fixed bug.
+
+1999-12-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * src/shred.c (wipename): When repeatedly renaming a file, making the
+ name shorter and shorter, skip to the next shorter length length if a
+ rename fails (e.g. due to permission denied). Otherwise, this loop
+ would iterate for so long that shred would appear to be stuck in an
+ infinite loop for any but the shortest file names.
+ Reported by Joe Orton.
+
+ * configure.in (AC_OUTPUT): Add tests/shred/Makefile.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add shred.
+ * tests/shred: New directory
+ * tests/shred/remove: New file. Tests for the above-fixed bug.
+
+1999-12-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>

+
+1999-12-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ Move 120+ lines of stat.h-related macros from system.h (not shared)
+ to sys2.h, which is shared between fileutils, sh-utils, textutils.
+ * src/system.h: Move them from here...
+ * src/sys2.h: ... to here.
+
+ * src/system.h (S_IRUSR, S_IRGRP, S_IWGRP, S_IROTH, S_IWOTH): Define
+ if not defined. This was necessary on a NeXT Turbostation running
+ Mach 3.3. Reported by Nelson H. F. Beebe.
+
+ * src/ls.c (decode_switches): If -c or -u is specified and not -l
+ (or any other option that implies -l), and no sort-type was specified,
+ then sort by the ctime (-c) or atime (-u). Part of this change reverts
+ the 1998-01-10 delta.
+ (usage): Update to reflect this change.

+
+ * Version 4.0k.
+
+ * tests/mv/into-self-2: Adapt to reflect this change in behavior.
+ Make sure the VERSION_CONTROL envvar is not set.
+ Run diff if comparison fails.
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): In move mode, if the rename attempt
+ fails, then unlink any existing destination file. This makes a
+ cross-device `mv' more consistent with the intra-device behavior.
+ This change is required by POSIX to make a cross-device move act with
+ semantics similar to those of the rename syscall. For example now
+ `mv' can move a file onto a symlink to itself when that symlink
+ is on a separate partition. With fileutils-4.0j, it would fail with
+ a diagnostic saying they were the same file.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+ * tests/mv/to-symlink: New file. Adds test for the above.
+ * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add to-symlink.
+
+ * tests/cp/cp-mv-backup (trap): Be careful to close $actual before
+ removing the containing directory. Otherwise, on some systems rmdir
+ fails to remove the containing directory.
+
+ * tests/ls/time-1: List --full-time dates upon failure.
+
+1999-12-02 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>

+
+1999-11-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>

+ Give the right diagnostic when failing to create a file in an
+ unwritable directory.
+ * src/touch.c (touch): Record errno upon failed errno and use that

+ Reported by Wichert Akkerman via Michael Stone.
+
+1999-11-27 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ Clean up test scripts.

+
+ * src/df.c (df_readable): Now returns char const *, not char *.
+ New arg NEGATIVE.
+ (ceil_percent): Now returns double, not int.
+ Be more careful about adding 1 to a wild value.
+ (show_dev): Don't filter out wild sizes from the underlying operating
+ system; instead, show them to the user as faithfully as possible.
+
+1999-11-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * doc/getdate.texi (Calendar date item): Correction regarding 0..68/

+
+1999-11-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * src/touch.c (touch): Don't fail just because we couldn't open

+ Based on a patch from Chip Salzenberg.
+ * tests/touch/no-rights: New test for this.

+ Reported by michael@roka.net.

+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Treat src and dest as the `same' in
+ `mv src symlink-to-src' when src and dest are on different partitions.
+ Otherwise, that `mv' command would silently remove `src'.
+ Reported by Michael Stone.
+ * tests/mv/into-self-2: Add a test for this fix.
+
+ * lib/makepath.c (make_path): Fix long-latent bug: s/&&/||/ (others

+ Richard Braakman reported that using `install -d -g foo 1/2`
+ only sets the group on the intermediate directory, not the final

+
+1999-11-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@set.twinsun.com>
+
+ * human.c (default_block_size): New function.

+
+ * src/dircolors.hin: Add several more TERM types.

+ From Michael Stone.
+
+ * src/chgrp.c (xstat): New global.
+ (main): Define it.
+ (change_file_group): Use it. Before this change, when running chgrp
+ on a symlink without --dereference (-h) and when the requested group
+ is the same as the group for the *symlink*, chgrp would do nothing.

+
+ Allow hard links to symlinks on systems that support it.

+ From James Sneeringer.
+
+ * src/ln.c (do_link): Fix typo (in which the function name `symlink'

+
+1999-11-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>

+
+1999-05-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>

+ just warn rather than failing if the table of mounted filesystems
+ cannot be read. Based on a patch from Mark Kettenis.
+
+ * lib/version-etc.c (version_etc): Put version info and author names
+ on the first two lines respectively rather than putting the three

+
+1999-05-05 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * lib/makepath.c (make_dir): When reporting a mkdir failure and the
+ target cannot be `stat'ed, use the errno from the failed mkdir call,
+ not the one from the stat call. Before this change, running
+ `mkdir -p /no-dir/no-dir' as an unprivileged user would wrongly
+ elicit `No such file or directory' instead of `Permission denied'.
+
+ * lib/strtol.c (TYPE_SIGNED, TYPE_MAXIMUM, TYPE_MINIMUM): Define.
+ (ULONG_LONG_MAX, LONG_LONG_MAX, LONG_LONG_MIN): Define if not defined.
+ Based on a patch from Kaveh Ghazi.
+

+
+1999-05-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * lib/makepath.c: Include makepath.h libintl.h, not after it.
+ Otherwise, we'd get the wrong definition of PARAMS from libintl.h.
+ (The method of defining PARAMS in libintl.h doesn't check PROTOTYPES,
+ which is necessary on Irix4 since cc doesn't define __STDC__.)
+ From Kaveh Ghazi.
+
+1999-04-30 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * Makefile.maint: Define several tag-related make variables.

+ (usage): Mention --no-create.
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Move the one-file-system test so that
+ it follows the `if (new_dst || !S_ISDIR (dst_sb.st_mode))' block.
+ Prior to this change, `cp --one-file-system' would traverse a file-
+ system boundary if the destination directory existed. From Ton Hospel.
+
+1999-04-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/dd.c: Always use STDIN_FILENO for input and STDOUT_FILENO

+ (input_fd, output_fd): Remove; all uses changed to STDIN_FILENO
+ and STDOUT_FILENO.
+ (open_fd): New function.

+ don't get confused.
+
+1999-04-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * src/ls.c (decode_switches): Use STDIN_FILENO, STDOUT_FILENO instead

+ * src/dd.c (skip): Don't fstat the input file; the result is
+ no longer used.
+
+1999-04-26 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * tests/mv/into-self-2: Update to reflect this change by reversing
+ the order of arguments so the symlink is the source, not the
+ destination (otherwise, the mv command would now succeed).
+
+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't make `mv foo symlink-to-foo' fail.
+ That is, even though source and destination are `the same,' don't fail
+ if the destination is a symlink. From Peter Samuelson.
+
+1999-04-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>

+ cross-compilation.
+ * config.guess: New file (from autoconf).
+ * config.sub: New file (from autoconf).
+
+ * src/shred.c <config.h>: Include first, since it can do
+ things like #define const, and this must be done before
+ including any system headers.
+
+ * lib/xstrtoumax.c (my_strtoumax): Fix typo in computing
+ whether overflow occurred. Improve overflow-detection to use

+ conditional branches for an N-digit number.
+
+1999-04-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * configure.in (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Remove strtoull, strtoumax, and

+
+1999-04-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * doc/fileutils.texi, src/shred.c (main, longopts):

+ future compatibility with rm.
+
+1999-04-18 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * src/shred.c [!HAVE_CONFIG_H] (ST_BLKSIZE): Define to 65536.
+ (do_wipefd): Use ST_BLKSIZE instead of referring to the st_blksize
+ member directly.
+
+1999-04-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ Fix shred to do the right thing with off_t longer than long.
+ Merge large-integer parsing code with similar code in dd.c,
+ and put the resulting in lib/xstrtoumax.c so that other programs
+ can use it. Instead of adding a new lib/xstrtoumax.h I thought
+ it cleaner to put all the xstroto* declarations into a single
+ header, which for now is lib/xstrtol.h for lack of a better place.
+ (Mayby lib/xstdlib.h would be better? :-)
+
+ I thought of several other problems with shredding regular files;
+ shredding devices is much more reliable. So I changed the defaults
+ to be more suitable for shredding devices; this should help encourage
+ users to do the right thing.
+
+ pfstatus isn't portable to environments with varying width
+ fonts, or with internationalized environments where the byte
+ count of the message is not the same as its print width.
+ Rather than deal with this, I just simplified it to not do
+ tricks with carriage-returns and spaces. (I'm also worried
+ that vprintf may not return the right value on some hosts; I
+ vaguelly recall this being a problem.) As a result, -v and -
+ no longer conflict.
+
+ When removing a special file, try to truncate it first, but don't
+ worry if this reports an error.
+
+ Try to find the size of a non-regular file by seeking to its end.
+
+ Various porting fixes, mostly because of a port to SunOS 4.1.4 cc.
+
+ Some other minor bug fixes.
+
+ * lib/xstrtoul.h: Remove this file.

+ (__strtol, __strtol_t, __xstrtol): New macros.
+
+ * lib/xstrtol.c (__strtol, __strtol_t, __xstrtol):
+ New macros to specify the
+ underlying function, its returned type, and our function. Default to
+ values suitable for xstrtol.
+
+ Include <ctype.h>, since we use its macros.
+
+ (ULONG_MAX, LONG_MAX, ISBLANK): Remove: no longer needed.
+ (ISSPACE): New macro.
+
+ (bkm_scale, bkm_scale_by_power, __xstrtol, main): __unsigned long int
+ -> __strtol_t.
+
+ (__xstrtol): Depend on whether __strtol_t is an unsigned type, not on
+ whether STRING_TO_UNSIGNED is defined. Skip isspace chars, not
+ isblank chars, to match strtol. When returning
+ LONGINT_INVALID_SUFFIX_CHAR, store the value that we computed into
+ *val.
+
+ * lib/xstrtol.h (__xstrtol, __strtol, __unsigned): Remove macro decls.
+ <inttypes.h>: Include if HAVE_INTTYPES_H.
+ (_DECLARE_XSTRTOL): New macro.

+
+ * lib/xmalloc.c (xalloc_fail):
+ Pass xalloc_msg_memory_exhausted through gettext.
+
+ * lib/getdate.y:
+ <stdlib.h>: Include if HAVE_STDLIB_H, since bison 1.27 invokes "free".
+ (LookupWord, yylex): Don't pass negative char to ctype macros.
+
+ * doc/fileutils.texi:
+ Explain why shredding devices is more reliable, and why the
+ default options are more suitable for devices.
+
+ Remove withdrawn options -b or --no-contents, -c or --freed-contents,
+ -C or --all-contents, -k or --no-links, -l or --ordinary-links, -L or
+ --all-links.
+
+ Add -R or --remove, -s or --size.
+
+ -v can no longer be doubled.
+
+ `file system' --> `filesystem' uniformly.
+
+ * src/chgrp.c: Include xstrtol.h, not obsolete file xstrtoul.h.
+
+ * src/shred.c: Include xstrtol.h, not obsolete file xstrtoul.h.
+ "human.h", "xalloc.h": Include.

+ (STDOUT_FILENO): New macro.
+ (O_NOCTTY): Make sure it's always defined, even if HAVE_CONFIG_H.
+
+ The following changes have effect only if !HAVE_CONFIG_H.
+ <ctype.h>: New include.
+ (RETSIGTYPE): Remove bogus semicolon at end.
+ (STDOUT_FILENO, uintmax_t, human_readable, LONGEST_HUMAN_READABLE):
+ New macros.
+ (xstrtoumax): Renamed from xstrtoul, with corresponding type changes.
+ Handle suffixes like the real routine does.
+ (error): Remove bogus assignment of errno to errnum.
+ (xmalloc, xstrdup): New functions.
+
+ (O_NOCTTY): Define even if !HAVE_CONFIG_H.
+ (S_ISFIFO, S_ISSOCK): New macros, if not already defined.
+ (OUTPUT_BLOCK_SIZE): New macro.
+ (struct Options.verbose): Now a boolean, since we no longer have two
+ levels of verbosity.
+ (long_opts, usage, main): Remove -D or --device option. Invert -p or
+ --preserve option, and rename it to -R or --remove.
+ (usage): Describe G suffix.
+ (usage): "-" no longer conflicts with -v.
+ (UCHAR_MAX): Indent `#error' so that SunOS 4.1.4 cc doesn't reject it.
+ (ind): Portability fixes: return word32, not unsigned; multiply by
+ sizeof (word32) instead of shifting left by 2.
+ (isaac_refill, isaac_mix): Comment out size of array parameter, as
+ ansi2knr mishandles this.
+ (status_visible, status_pos, pfstatus, flushstatus): Remove, since
+ pfstatus isn't portable to users with varying width fonts, or
+ internationalized messages, and vfprintf is problematic. All callers
+ of pfstatus changed to use error instead; this removes incompatibility
+ of -v with -. All calls to flushstatus removed.
+ (dopass, do_wipefd): Do not translate non-English msgs with gettext.
+
+ (dopass): Cast lseek constant arguments to (off_t) for benefit
+ of pre-ANSI compilers; fix one lseek call whose args were interchanged.
+ Remove unnecessary casts to (off_t). Do not check for EIO
+ when determining file size; this was just my earlier wild guess.
+ Use human_readable to print off_t, instead of casting to unsigned long
+ (which doesn't work in Solaris 2.6, where off_t is longer than long).
+ Output human-readable sizes, instead of always using "K".
+ Check for offset overflow (it happened to me in SunOS 4.1.4).
+ (do_wipefd): Do not insist on regular files, but do check for special
+ files that cannot possibly be shredded.
+ Use xmalloc instead of malloc + check.
+ Do not inspect st_size for non-regular files.
+ Try to find the size of a non-regular file by seeking to its end.
+ Do not assume that a regular file of size-0 has unknown size.
+ Check for regular files with negative sizes,
+ and for overflow after rounding to next block.
+ Always try to truncate, even for special files, but do not report an
+ error if truncation fails on a special file.
+
+ (dopass, wipefile): Do not return 1 for special files; the caller
+ doesn't care any more.
+
+ (wipefd): Remove unnecessary (and nonportable) check for
+ whether the file descriptor is read-only. Remove
+ no-longer-needed check for `-v -'.
+
+ (incname): Return 1 for carry bit, like the documentation says.
+
+ (wipename, wipefile): Accept new argument, specifying the
+ quoted file name. All callers changed.
+
+ (wipename): Use xstrdup instead of strdup+error check.
+
+ (wipefile): Check for ENOTDIR when opening /dev/fd/NNN. Check for
+ errors in NNN more carefully. Restore errno after the check.
+ Check for errors when closing the file descriptor.
+ Use more consistent wording when unable to remove a file.
+
+ (main): Do not remove files by default.
+ Use xstrtoumax instead of xstrtoul uniformly, since xstrtoul won't
+ exist if !HAVE_CONFIG_H.
+ In diagnostics, quote invalid operands to -n and -s options.
+ Allow T, P, E, Z, and Y suffixes in -s operand.
+ flags.verbose is now a boolean, not a counter.
+ Use STDOUT_FILENO instead of 1, for clarity.
+
+ * lib/human.c:
+ Include xstrtol.h, not xstrtoul.h, since xstrtol.h now defines all the
+ xstrto... functions.
+
+ * src/dd.c: Include xstrtol.h.
+ (parse_integer): Migrate most of the work into the new xstrtoumax fn.

+ (main): Assert that the lengths of the color_indicator and
+ indicator_name arrays are appropriately related.
+ Reported by John Gotts.
+
+ * src/dd.c (scanargs): Fix bug introduced with last change: now that

+ Reported by Andreas Jaeger and jvogel@linkny.com.
+

+
+ * src/shred.c: Don't include string.h.
+ [!HAVE_CONFIG_H]: Include string.h here.
+ [!HAVE_CONFIG_H]: Hard-code RETSIGTYPE to `int'.
+ (sigill_handler): Change return type and type of local `oldhandler' to
+ RETSIGTYPE.
+ (isaac_seed_machdep): Change and type of local `oldhandler' to
+ RETSIGTYPE.
+ From Colin Plumb.
+
+ * Version 4.0e
+
+ * tests/cp/same-file: Change the sed command used to extract the
+ filename from ls -l output, to accommodate the change in format.
+
+ * src/ls.c (print_long_format): Add a space between %s and %3u. This
+ assures that even when modebuf has the trailing `+' and there are more
+ than 99 hard links to a file, the permissions string and the link count
+ will be separated.
+
+1999-04-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>
+
+ * src/shred.c (dopass): add curly braces to avoid warning about

+ to allow standalone compilation.
+
+ (wipefile): Added support for emulating /dev/fd/# files even if
+ the OS doesn't support them. From Paul Eggert.
+
+ (main, usage): Changed --device short option to -D.
+
+ (wipefd, do_wipefd): Renamed function to do_wipefd and added
+ separate wipefd that performs sanity checks on externally-opened file
+ descriptors, such as not append-only. From Paul Eggert.
+
+ (do_wipefd, isaac_seedfd): Do not read file for any reason.
+ if the file is low-entropy, it's a security hole.
+ (wipefile) Changed to open O_WRONLY and chmod to write-only when
+ forcing.
+ (isaac_seedfd) Function deleted as unnecessary.
+ From Paul Eggert.
+
+ (dopass): Dynamically fall back to fsync() if fdatasync() fails,
+ since POSIX, in their infinitesimal wisdom, encourage implementations
+ that return constant -1, making compile-time testing useless.
+ From Paul Eggert.
+
+ (dopass): Changed to support a size of -1 to mean "unknown".
+ This entailed changing to a counting-up offset rather than couting-down
+ cursize for the central state variable. Also changed size argument to
+ be call-by-reference so that it can be passed back once known.
+ (sizer) Function deleted as unnecessary.
+ (wipefd): Changed to match. From Paul Eggert
+
+ (dopass): Try to skip over bad blocks in destination files.
+ Also added ftruncate() for more complete destruction of metadata.
+
+ (main, usage): Changed "-" to stand for standard output.
+ (wipefd): Added error message to detect conflict with -v.
+
+ (dopass): Added periodic fsync() calls to keep the pass progress
+ display in sync with reality. Hopefully they're sufficiently far spaced
+ that throughput isn't affected. It might be a good thing to do even in
+ non-verbose mode, to avoid filling up the kernel caches with dirty data.
+ Also added ftruncate() for more complete destruction of metadata.
+
+ (quotearg_colon): New function to print
+ pathological filenames properly.
+ [!HAVE_CONFIG_H] (quotearg_colon_buf) New internal helper function
+ that does most of the work.
+ (wipefd, do_wipefd, dopass) Now take a qname (pre-quoted name) argument.
+ (wipename, wipefile, main) Changed diagnostics to use quotearg_colon.
+ Error messages are also in a more uniform format.
+ From Paul Eggert.
+
+ (struct Options, main, do_wipefd): Added -s/--size=N flag.
+ (xstrtoul): Added support for valid_suffixes to help this.
+ (usage) Documented it.
+
+ (error): Changed some arguments from N_() to _(), since error()
+ does not translate its argument. I think this is a bug.
+
+ (struct Options do_wipefd, wipefd, wipefile, main): moved passes
+ argument into the Options structure as n_iterations, which is now a
+ size_t. From Paul Eggert.
+
+ (isaac_seed_start, isaac_seed_data, isaac_seed_finish): New functions
+ to manage seeding of RNG with arbitrary-sized data.
+ (isaac_init): commented out as dead code.
+ (isaac_seed): changed to use new functions to prevent any possibility of
+ a buffer overflow.
+
+ (isaac_seed): Added support for Solaris' gethrtime()
+ configure.in: Corresponding feature test. From Paul Eggert.
+
+ (wipename): Change remove() to unlink() for speed & portability.
+ Use lstat() instead of access() to see if a filename is taken. This
+ works even on dangling symlinks and avoids the suid problems of
+ access(2). From Paul Eggert.
+
+ (isaac_seed_machdep): New function for reading cycle counters
+
+1999-04-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@shade.twinsun.com>
+
+ * configure.in (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Add gethrtime.
+
+ * src/shred.c (isaac_seed): Don't overrun the s->mm buffer.
+ Use gethrtime if available. Don't assume that clock_gettime succeeds.
+ Put most random sources first.
+
+1999-04-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ shred: Add new options -bcCklL and fix some porting problems.
+ Remove options -dp. Do not read output files.
+
+ * src/shred.c (long_opts, usage, main, wipefile): Adjust to
+ new options.
+ ("human.h", "quotearg.h"): New includes.
+ (struct Options): New members contents, links, n_iterations.
+ Remove allow_devices, remove_file. Change n_iterations to size_t.
+ All uses changed.
+ (output_block_size): New var.
+ (usage): Declare __noreturn__ attribute.
+ (fdatasync): Define to -1 if not present, since we need to invoke both
+ fdatasync and fsync if both are present. All invokers of fdatasync
+ now try fdatasync, then fsync.
+ (MIXIN): New macro.
+ (isaac_seed): Use it to mix in values. Add uid, gid to mix.
+ Don't use gettimeofday, as it has too many porting problems.
+ (isaac_seedfd): Remove, since we no longer read the output files.
+ (sizefd): Remove; we now determine size by writing sequentially.
+ (dopass, wipename, wipefile, main): Clean up error messages.
+ (dopass): Keep track of offset relative to start of file, not
+ end, since we may not know how large the file is. If size is
+ negative, write until we fall off the end of the file.
+ (wipefd): Do not read output file.
+ Return 0 if successful, -1 if not; do not make a special case for
+ non-regular files, since our callers have that info now.
+ (wipename): Now static. Return errno if error.
+ (main): "-" now stands for standard output.
+ Do not shred append-only standard output.
+ (wipefile): Do not grant read permission to file when wiping it.
+ Use symbolic permission (S_IWUSR), not octal.
+
+ * src/system.h (S_IWUSR): Define if not already defined.
+
+ * configure.in (AC_SEARCH_LIBS): Prefer rt to posix4, for Solaris 7.

+ (jm_CHECK_ALL_TYPES): Remove explicit AC_TYPE_* macros and use
+ this instead.
+
+1999-03-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>

+ Accommodate the Hurd (defining lstat to rpl_lstat via config.h didn't

+
+1998-10-25 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com>

+ * README: Man pages will now be supported to the extent that

+
+ * tests/rm/unreadable: Two new tests.

+ text of diagnostics that are likely to vary between systems.
+ (TEST_ENVIRONMENT): Add required framework.
+
+ * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Don't apply CLOSEDIR to a NULL
+ pointer. (provoke with `mkdir -m 0100 x; rm -rf x')

+ probes from 4 to 6 to account for the extra probes needed to
+ discover a spring-forward gap in the worst case.
+
+1998-10-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * mktime.c (my_mktime_localtime_r): Renamed from localtime_r.
+ Define also if HAVE_LOCALTIME_R && defined (localtime_r), with

+ (find_backup_file_name): Adjust prototype.
+
+1998-01-13 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * src/df.c (print_header): Fix inode format header to line it up
+ with the rest of the output.
+
+1998-01-13 Jim Meyering <meyering@na-net.ornl.gov>
+
+ * lib/stat.c: Set errno to ENOENT, not EINVAL. This is consistent
+ with most other implementations.
+
+1998-01-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@na-net.ornl.gov>
+
+ * lib/fileblocks.c: Include sys/param.h only #if HAVE_SYS_PARAM_H.
+ Move function-spanning `#if ...BSIZE' directive to follow inclusion
+ of sys/param.h since BSIZE is sometimes defined in sys/param.h.
+ Reported by Philippe De Muyter.
+
+1998-01-10 Jim Meyering <meyering@na-net.ornl.gov>
+
+ * Version 3.16k.
+
+ * src/install.c (install_file_to_path): New function.
+ FIXME: update fileutils.texi.
+ (main): Handle new option, -D.
+ Based on a patch from Marty Leisner.
+ (usage): Describe -D.
+
+ * src/ls.c (decode_switches) [-u]: Fix bug whereby -u worked only
+ with -l or -t. Now, -u (like -c) implies --sort=time.
+ (usage): Correct descriptions of --sort, --time, and -t.
+ Suggestions from Andreas Schwab.
+
+ Add test for the above fix.
+ * configure.in (AC_OUTPUT): Add tests/ls/Makefile.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add ls.
+ * tests/ls: New directory.
+ * tests/ls/Makefile.am: New file.
+ * tests/ls/time-1: New file.
+
+ * lib/makepath.c (make_path): Reformat 3 if-stmts to test
+ `if (newly_created_dir)' only once. Suggestion from Andreas Schwab.
+
+1998-01-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@na-net.ornl.gov>
+
+ * lib/getdate.y: Move inclusion of getdate.h and dependent extern
+ declarations down so getdate.h's prototype follows the sometimes-
+ enabled definition of `const' to nothing. Otherwise, the prototype
+ wouldn't match the definition because of the defined-away `const'.
+ From Kaveh Ghazi.
+ (get_date): ANSI-fy definition.
+ Add %expect directive.
+
+1998-01-05 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * lib/makepath.c (make_path): Put only newly created directories
+ on the LEADING_DIRS list.
+
+1998-01-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ * lib/fsusage.c (PROPAGATE_ALL_ONES): New macro.
+ (get_fs_usage): If a value consists entirely of 1 bits,
+ propagate this info to the output by setting it to (uintmax_t) -1.
+ * src/df.c (df_readable): New function.
+ (show_dev): If a value consists entirely of 1 bits, or is derived
+ from some other value that consists entirely of 1 bits, report "-".
+ Check inode and block counts more carefully for plausibility,
+ to avoid arithmetic overflow when computing percentages.
+
+1998-01-04 Jim Meyering <meyering@na-net.ornl.gov>
+
+ * Version 3.16j.
+
+ * lib/Makefile.in: Regenerated with patched automake-1.2d.
+ See README-alpha.
+
+ * src/chgrp.c: Use a single enumerated type, Verbosity, instead of
+ the two booleans, verbose and changes_only. This fixes a bug whereby
+ --change had the same effect as --verbose.
+ * src/chmod.c: Likewise.
+ * src/chown.c: Likewise.
+ Reported by Paul Eggert.
+
+1998-01-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+
+ Check for write errors more carefully.
+
+ * lib/Makefile.am (libfu_a_SOURCES): Add closeout.c.
+ (noinst_HEADERS): Add closeout.h.
+ * lib/closeout.c, lib/closeout.h: New files.
+ * lib/long-options.c (parse_long_options),
+ src/chgrp.c, src/chmod.c, src/chown.c, src/cp.c, src/dd.c,
+ src/df.c, src/dircolors.c, src/du.c, src/install.c, src/ln.c,
+ src/ls.c, src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c, src/mknod.c, src/mv.c,
+ src/mvdir.c, src/rm.c, src/rmdir.c, src/sync.c, src/touch.c
+ (main, usage): Check for write error to stdout before exiting.
+ Include "closeout.h".
+
+1998-01-03 Jim Meyering <meyering@na-net.ornl.gov>
+
+ * src/df.c (show_dev): Treat `fsu.fsu_bavail == (unsigned long) -1'
+ just like `fsu.fsu_blocks == 0' as an indicator that usage information
+ is invalid. This happens with Solaris-5.5.1 CD-ROM mount points.
+
+ * lib/save-cwd.h: Guard PARAMS-enabling definition with
+ `defined PROTOTYPES || (defined __STDC__ && __STDC__)' to avoid
+ problems with Irix4's cc. From Kaveh Ghazi.
+ * lib/getdate.h: Likewise, but just to be consistent.
+
+ * configure.in: Convert the .o suffix on files in LIBOBJS to $U.o so
+ those files will be built via the ANSI2KNR-filtering rules if necessary.
+ Reported by Kaveh Ghazi.
+
+1998-01-02 Jim Meyering <meyering@na-net.ornl.gov>
+
+ * Version 3.16i.
+
+ Fix problem with `install -d'. Reported by Marty Leisner.
+
+ * src/install.c (get_ids): When otherwise unspecified,
+ set uid and gid to -1.
+ * lib/makepath.c (make_path): Try to change ownership only if we've
+ just created the directory. Fix latent bug (s/&&/||/ in two places --
+ also, note that it could not be exercised via install or mkdir)
+ whereby chown would not be invoked when only one of owner/group is
+ not -1.
+
+1998-01-01 Jim Meyering <meyering@na-net.ornl.gov>
+
+ * src/rm.c (remove_cwd_entries): Initialize the entry-name obstack
+ only once and never free it.
