Run "make update-copyright" and then... * gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted. * tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year. * bootstrap: Likewise. * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.

truncate: avoid integer-overflow assumptions

2019-10-03T19:41:51Z

* src/truncate.c (do_ftruncate): Simplify overflow checking, and don’t rely on theoretically-nonportable assumptions like assuming that OFF_MAX < UINTMAX_MAX.

doc: clarify that truncate creates sparse files

2019-08-08T12:34:54Z

* src/truncate.c (usage): Explicitly mention "sparse". * doc/coreutils.texi (truncate invocation): Likewise. Addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/36963

all: reduce usage of proper_name_utf8()

2016-11-14T00:34:39Z

This reduces a standard coreutils install size by about 160K. * src/cat.c: Change to proper_name() which removes about 18K text. * src/cp.c: Likewise. * src/df.c: Likewise. * src/du.c: Likewise. * src/getlimits.c: Likewise. * src/realpath.c: Likewise. * src/split.c: Likewise. * src/stdbuf.c: Likewise. * src/timeout.c: Likewise. * src/truncate.c: Likewise. * src/local.mk: Remove -llibiconv from the above programs. * cfg.mk (sc_check-AUTHORS): Adjust to use factor(1). * AUTHORS: Adjust to use ASCII to satisfy sc_check-AUTHORS.

all: use die() rather than error(EXIT_FAILURE)

2016-10-16T11:23:55Z

die() has the advantage of being apparent to the compiler that it doesn't return, which will avoid warnings in some cases, and possibly generate better code. * cfg.mk (sc_die_EXIT_FAILURE): A new syntax check rule to catch any new uses of error (CONSTANT, ...);
