coreutils/src/comm.c, branch v8.7

provide POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL hint to appropriate utils

2010-07-22T00:04:47Z

Following on from commit dae35bac, 01-03-2010, "sort: inform the system about our input access pattern" apply the same hint to all appropriate utils. This currently gives around a 5% speedup for reading large files from fast flash devices on GNU/Linux. * src/base64.c: Call fadvise (..., FADVISE_SEQUENTIAL); * src/cat.c: Likewise. * src/cksum.c: Likewise. * src/comm.c: Likewise. * src/cut.c: Likewise. * src/expand.c: Likewise. * src/fmt.c: Likewise. * src/fold.c: Likewise. * src/join.c: Likewise. * src/md5sum.c: Likewise. * src/nl.c: Likewise. * src/paste.c: Likewise. * src/pr.c: Likewise. * src/ptx.c: Likewise. * src/shuf.c: Likewise. * src/sum.c: Likewise. * src/tee.c: Likewise. * src/tr.c: Likewise. * src/tsort.c: Likewise. * src/unexpand.c: Likewise. * src/uniq.c: Likewise. * src/wc.c: Likewise, unless we don't actually read().

doc: fix comm's --help output so we generate a better man page

2010-06-21T06:55:22Z

* src/comm.c (usage): Don't align example comments in --help output, since the extra space (sequence of two spaces) there would be interpreted by help2man and induce an unwanted line break in the resulting man page. Reported by Jari Aalto.

maint: update all FSF copyright year lists to include 2010

2010-01-01T13:06:47Z

Use this command: git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \ | xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \ build-aux/update-copyright

doc: mention the texinfo documentation in --help

2009-09-21T11:37:57Z

* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C' (and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page. Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command. Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it. * man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the --help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man. Suggestion from C de-Avillez

global: convert indentation-TABs to spaces

2009-08-25T07:21:00Z

doc: clarify the operation of the comm -123 parameters

2009-05-18T15:17:31Z

* src/comm.c (usage): give more information on the -123 parameters, with examples to show that they can be combined. Addresses . * doc/coreutils.texi (comm invocation): Mention that the column separators are suppressed along with the column. Suggestion from Dan Jacobson. * man/comm.x: Reference other commands that match adjacent lines. * man/join.x: ditto. * man/uniq.x: ditto.

doc: note the use of LC_COLLATE in comm, join and uniq

2009-05-05T16:14:51Z

* doc/coreutils.texi (uniq invocation): Simplify the text to remove the inconsequential mentioning of order, while implying that LC_COLLATE can alter equality comparisons. * src/comm.c (usage): Mention LC_COLLATE is significant. * src/join.c (usage): Ditto. * src/uniq.c (usage): Ditto. Also improve the summary. Suggestion from Andries Brouwer

comm: fix a bug in its new --check-order option

2009-03-08T20:34:08Z

* src/comm.c: Include memcmp2.h. (check_order): Use memcmp2 instead of memcmp. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add memcmp2.

make --help print "Report PROGRAM translation bugs to <...>."

2008-11-10T07:19:52Z

for all but the C/POSIX locale. * src/system.h: Include "hard-locale.h". (emit_bug_reporting_address): Tell where to report translation bugs. don't include "hard-locale.h", now that system.h does * src/comm.c: Likewise. * src/join.c: Likewise. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/pinky.c: Likewise. * src/pr.c: Likewise. * src/sort.c: Likewise. * src/uniq.c: Likewise. * src/who.c: Likewise.

remove redundant const directives

2008-06-16T14:40:59Z

In 1463824d8e7f72c31f1d803d7cfe2b608ccafc5c, I added some missing "const" directives, as well as some new, redundant ones. This removes the redundant ones. Pointed out by Eric Blake. * base64.c, cat.c, chcon.c, chgrp.c, chmod.c, chown.c, comm.c: * cp.c, csplit.c, cut.c, date.c, dd.c, df.c, dircolors.c, du.c: * env.c, expand.c, fmt.c, fold.c, groups.c, head.c, id.c: * install.c, join.c, kill.c, ln.c, ls.c, md5sum.c, mkdir.c: * mkfifo.c, mknod.c, mktemp.c, mv.c, nice.c, nl.c, od.c: * paste.c, pathchk.c, pinky.c, pr.c, ptx.c, readlink.c, rm.c: * rmdir.c, runcon.c, seq.c, shred.c, shuf.c, sort.c, split.c: * stat.c, stty.c, su.c, sum.c, tac.c, tail.c, tee.c, timeout.c: * touch.c, tr.c, truncate.c, tty.c, uname.c, unexpand.c, uniq.c: * wc.c, who.c: Remove redundant const directives. * maint.mk (sc_const_long_option): Don't require redundant "const".
