tests: avoid spurious failure of root-only ls/capability test

2010-04-14T13:48:31Z

* tests/ls/capability: Adjust this test not to expect the no-op escape sequence that was removed from all other tests by 2010-01-30 commit 5d43617e, "ls --color: don't emit a final no-op escape sequence".

maint: ensure test independence from config macro format

2010-01-23T22:53:52Z

* tests/cp/acl: Support USE_ACL not being defined. * tests/mv/acl: Likewise. Also fix typo in skip message. * tests/cp/preserve-slink-time: Support HAVE_UTIMENSAT being 0. * tests/touch/no-dereference: Likewise. * tests/ls/capability: Normalize so 1 is not required to be last char.

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

ls: fix capability coloring

2009-11-09T08:16:20Z

Capability checking was incorrectly done on just the base name rather than on the whole path. Consequently there could be both false positives and negatives when coloring files with capabilities. Also capability checking was not done at all in certain cases for non executable files. Note passing absolute rather than relative names to cap_get_file() reduces the has_capability() overhead from around 33% to 30%. I.E. ls --color is now around 3% faster. * src/ls.c (struct fileinfo): Add a has_capability member. (print_color_indicator): Refactor to pass just a fileinfo pointer and a flag to say if we're dealing with a symlink target. (print_name_with_quoting): Likewise. (gobble_file): Set has_capability in the fileinfo struct. Also do a capability check even if executable coloring is disabled. Ditto for SETUID and SETUID coloring. Comment on how expensive has_capability() is. (print_long_format): Adjust to refactored print_name_with_quoting. (quote_name): Likewise. (print_file_name_and_frills): Likewise. * tests/ls/capability: Test the various false positive and negatives. * THANKS: Add reporter (Ivan Labath). * NEWS: Mention the fix.

tests: factor 350 fail=0 initializations into test-lib.sh

2009-10-30T11:50:12Z

Run this command to remove the factored-out "fail=0" lines. perl -ni -e '/^fail=0$/ or print' $(g grep -l '^fail=0$') * tests/test-lib.sh: Initialize fail=0 here, not in 300+ scripts. * tests/...: nearly all bourne shell scripts Suggested by Eric Blake.

tests: skip a root-only test when configured without libcap

2008-10-02T13:54:36Z

* tests/ls/capability: Test for HAVE_CAP definition in config.h.

tests: use "Exit $fail", not (exit $fail); exit $fail

2008-09-10T11:20:10Z

* tests/test-lib.sh (Exit): New function by Ralf Wildenhues in automake http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=automake.git;a=commitdiff;h=20594c08f63 * tests/**: Convert all uses: This restrictive change converted the vast majority: git grep -l '^(exit \$fail); exit \$fail$' \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/'^$exit \$fail$; exit \$fail$/Exit \$fail/' And this did the rest, plus a few undesirable ones, so I manually backed out the changes to ChangeLog-* and build-aux/check.mk: git grep -l -E '$exit [^)]+$; exit ' \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/$exit (.+?)$; exit \1/Exit $1/'

ls: --color now highlights files with capabilities, too

2008-08-01T20:13:25Z

* src/ls.c: [HAVE_CAP] Include . (has_capability): New function for capability detection. (print_color_indicator): Colorize file with capability. * m4/jm-macro.m4: New configure option: --disable-libcap. Check for libcap usability. * src/Makefile.am (dir_LDADD, ls_LDADD, ...): Append $(LIB_CAP). * src/dircolors.c: Update color lists. * src/dircolors.hin: Mention new CAPABILITY color attribute. * tests/ls/capability: Test for ls - colorize file with capability. * tests/Makefile.am (root_tests): Add ls/capability. * NEWS: Mention the change.
