maint: update to latest gnulib, for testsuite improvement

2010-12-31T16:50:46Z

* gnulib: Update to latest for init.sh fix. * bootstrap: Resync from gnulib. * tests/init.sh: Likewise.

coreutils: keep lines within 80-column limits

2010-12-28T20:30:42Z

* cfg.mk (LINE_LEN_MAX, FILTER_LONG_LINES): New macros. (sc_long_lines): New rule. * HACKING: Use shorter URLs to the same material. * doc/Makefile.am, doc/coreutils.texi, m4/boottime.m4: * man/help2man, man/stdbuf.x, src/Makefile.am, src/cat.c, src/copy.c: * src/cp.c, src/dd.c, src/df.c, src/du.c, src/groups.c, src/install.c: * src/ls.c, src/md5sum.c, src/mv.c, src/od.c, src/pinky.c, src/ptx.c: * src/readlink.c, src/remove.c, src/rmdir.c, src/setuidgid.c: * src/sort.c, src/tail.c, src/touch.c, tests/Coreutils.pm: * tests/cp/existing-perm-race, tests/cp/perm, tests/cp/preserve-gid: * tests/du/2g, tests/du/long-from-unreadable, tests/init.sh: * tests/install/basic-1, tests/ls/nameless-uid: * tests/ls/readdir-mountpoint-inode, tests/misc/chroot-credentials: * tests/misc/cut, tests/misc/date, tests/misc/join, tests/misc/md5sum: * tests/misc/sha1sum, tests/misc/sha224sum, tests/misc/sort: * tests/misc/sort-continue, tests/misc/sort-files0-from: * tests/misc/sort-rand, tests/misc/stdbuf, tests/misc/tr: * tests/misc/uniq, tests/mv/atomic, tests/mv/part-fail: * tests/mv/part-symlink, tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart, tests/pr/pr-tests: * tests/rm/fail-2eperm, tests/rm/interactive-always: Reformat to fit within 80 columns. * doc/Makefile.am (BAD_POSIX_PERL): New macro. * doc/coreutils.texi: Reword slightly, to make menus and index lines shorter. * src/md5sum.c: Redo --help output so that it fits within 79 columns, since that's a bit more portable and all the other --help strings fit in 79 columns.

tests: sync init.sh from gnulib

2010-12-19T04:03:21Z

* tests/init.sh (setup_): Initialize fail=0 before invoking mktempd_. Ensure that IFS is defined initially. (mktempd_): Remove fail=0 initialization; no longer needed.

tests: set fail=0 by default

2010-12-18T06:40:20Z

* tests/init.sh (setup_): Set fail=0. This was the intent as per but the assignment in mktempd_ is ineffective, since mktempd_ is used inside `` and its assignments are in a subshell.

tests: don't disqualify FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh just yet,

2010-11-07T20:08:37Z

because dash-0.5.6-2.fc14.x86_64 would also be disqualified. This reverts part of yesterday's commit 6c058b2d, "tests: avoid failure due to bug in FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh". Note that the offending aspect of those shells is not officially a bug, since "local" is not specified by POSIX. However, it is very unintuitive that prepending "local" to an existing, standards-compliant assignment would evoke such a fundamental change in semantics. * tests/init.sh: Remove snippet requiring sane "local" support. Upstream dash bug report: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.shells.dash/419

tests: avoid failure due to bug in FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh

2010-11-06T14:24:53Z

* tests/init.sh: Arrange not to accept FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh, since it fails this test: /bin/sh -c 'f(){ local s=$IFS; test -n "$s"; }; f' * tests/init.cfg (sanitize_path_): Stop-gap measure to work around a bug in FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh. We'll un-do this change once all 300+ tests use init.sh.

tests: sync tests/init.sh from gnulib

2010-09-18T19:32:18Z

* tests/init.sh: Update from gnulib.

maint: update to latest gnulib

2010-09-17T21:57:49Z

* gnulib: Update to latest. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Use fdutimens instead of gl_futimens. * src/touch.c (touch): Adjust parameter order. * tests/init.sh: Resync from upstream.

init.sh: work around trap limitation of some shells

2010-08-03T20:01:42Z

* tests/init.sh (setup_): Move exit trap outside of shell function. This patch is imported from gnulib.
