coreutils/src/ls.c, branch v6.8

* src/csplit.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate

each option string from its description, so help2man formats the derived man page properly. Reported by Thomas Huriaux in . * src/df.c (usage): Likewise. * src/du.c (usage): Likewise. * src/install.c (usage): Likewise. * src/ls.c (usage): Likewise.

Plug a leak in ls.

2007-01-29T13:18:28Z

* src/ls.c (print_dir): Don't leak a "DIR"+fd upon failure to determine dev/inode or upon detecting a symlink loop.

* src/ls.c: Rename three global variables.

2007-01-29T13:06:45Z

(cwd_file): Rename from 'files'. (cwd_n_alloc): Rename from 'nfiles'. (cwd_n_used): Rename from 'files_index'.

Shave 8 bytes off the size of "struct fileinfo".

2007-01-29T11:25:01Z

* src/ls.c (fileinfo): Put all members of type "bool" together.

Modify "ls" to sort its data faster, using the new gnulib mpsort

2007-01-29T11:08:52Z

module rather than qsort. This is particularly a win in environments where strcoll is slow, since mpsort typically calls strcoll less often than qsort does. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add mpsort. * src/ls.c: Include mpsort.h. (sorted_file, sorted_file_alloc): New vars, for a new vector of pointers to the file info, for speed. (clear_files, extract_dirs_from_files, sort_files, print_current_files): (print_many_per_line, print_horizontal, print_with_commas): (calculate_columns): Set and use new vector. (initialize_ordering_vector): New function.

Standardize on list of signals when an app catches signals.

2007-01-20T08:54:20Z

* src/csplit.c (main): Also catch SIGALRM, SIGPIPE, SIGPOLL, SIGPROF, SIGVTALRM, SIGXCPU, SIGXFSZ. * src/ls.c (main): Likewise (except SIGPIPE was already caught). Note that ls.c is special, as it also catches SIGTSTP. * src/sort.c (main): Likewise. Also catch SIGQUIT. More details in .

Now, "ls -FRL" always follows symbolic links on Linux.

2007-01-02T06:27:22Z

* NEWS: Mention this bug fix. * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Fix bug reported by Nobuyuki Tsuchimura in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-12/msg00152.html where "ls -FRL" didn't follow a symbolic link in some cases on Linux. * tests/ls/follow-slink: Add a test for this case.

Improve the check for departures from C89, and fix the departures

2006-11-27T10:27:46Z

I found. * Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Also check for C89 compatibility as best we can with GCC. * src/stat.c (PRINTF_OPTION): Omit comma before } in enum declaration; C89 doesn't allow this. * src/dcgen: Don't generate string literals longer than what C89 requires support for. * src/cut.c (usage): Don't use string literals longer than what C89 requires support for. * src/date.c (usage): Likewise. * src/dd.c (usage): Likewise. * src/du.c (usage): Likewise. * src/ls.c (usage): Likewise. * src/od.c (usage): Likewise. * src/readlink.c (usage): Likewise. * src/seq.c (usage): Likewise. * src/shred.c (usage): Likewise.

* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add sys_stat, since we use it directly too.

2006-11-16T18:51:23Z

* lib/.cvsignore, lib/.gitignore: Add root-dev-ino.c, root-dev-ino.h. * m4/.cvsignore, m4/.gitignore: Add root-dev-ino.m4. * src/ls.c (DIRED_FPUTS_LITERAL, PUSH_CURRENT_DIRED_POS): Omit unnecessary parenthesization of args. * src/od.c (EQUAL_BLOCKS): Likewise. * src/system.h (STREQ, ASSIGN_STRDUPA): Likewise.

* src/ls.c (usage): Correct description of -s, --size.

2006-10-11T05:44:41Z

It works even without -l. Suggestion from Karl Berry.
