tests: mention that btrfs also causes failure of misc/ls-time

2010-10-26T16:14:50Z

* tests/misc/ls-time: Mention that this test also fails on btrfs, at least until http://bugzilla.redhat.com/591068 is addressed.

ls: use the POSIX date style when the locale does not specify one

2010-07-01T12:12:52Z

Previously we defaulted to "long-iso" format in locales without specific format translations, like the en_* locales for example. This reverts part of commit 6837183d, 08-11-2005, "ls ... acts like --time-style='posix-long-iso' if the locale settings are messed up" * src/ls.c (decode_switches): Only use the ISO format when specified. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. Reported by Daniel Qarras at http://bugzilla.redhat.com/525134

tests: avoid spurious sc_prohibit_test_minus_ao syntax-check failures

2010-03-29T06:28:51Z

* tests/misc/ls-time: Change comments and diagnostics. * tests/misc/xattr: Likewise.

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

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.

maint: update all Copyright year lists to include 2009

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/'

in 280+ tests/* files, use $srcdir, not $top_srcdir/tests

2008-05-27T11:48:32Z

Revamp test-related Makefiles.

2008-04-20T22:01:51Z

One side-effect of this change is that "make check" now works even if you put "." early in your shell's search PATH (don't do that!). Remove all test-related Makefile.am files, except those generated by mk-script. Instead, tests/Makefile.am now lists not only the tests directly under tests/, but also those in tests/*/ that are not generated by mk-script, e.g., cp/abuse, cp/acl, mv/i-1, etc. A lot of these changes are like this: -. $srcdir/../lang-default +. $top_srcdir/tests/lang-default -. $srcdir/../test-lib.sh +. $top_srcdir/tests/test-lib.sh * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove corresponding Makefiles. * tests/check.mk (vc_exe_in_TESTS): Relax syntax requirements. * tests/rwx-to-mode: Remove file. Rewritten as... * tests/test-lib.sh (rwx_to_mode_): ...this new function. * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rwx-to-mode. (SUBDIRS): Remove each dir with a removed Makefile.am. (EXTRA_DIST): Add $(TESTS). (TESTS): Add over 300 entries.

Require that "(exit $fail); exit $fail" be last line of each test.

2008-03-28T13:21:28Z

* maint.mk (sc_require_test_exit_idiom): New rule to enforce policy. * tests/cp/acl: Adhere to the new policy. * tests/cp/preserve-gid: Likewise. * tests/dd/misc: * tests/install/create-leading: * tests/ln/sf-1: * tests/ls/symlink-slash: * tests/misc/help-version: * tests/misc/ls-time: * tests/misc/nice: * tests/misc/shred-remove: * tests/misc/stty: * tests/misc/stty-row-col: * tests/mkdir/p-1: * tests/mkdir/p-2: * tests/mkdir/p-3: * tests/mkdir/p-v: * tests/mkdir/special-1: * tests/mkdir/writable-under-readonly: * tests/mv/acl: * tests/mv/backup-is-src: * tests/mv/diag: * tests/mv/dir-file: * tests/mv/force: * tests/mv/hard-link-1: * tests/mv/i-2: * tests/mv/i-4: * tests/mv/into-self: * tests/mv/into-self-2: * tests/mv/into-self-3: * tests/mv/partition-perm: * tests/mv/to-symlink: * tests/rmdir/ignore: * tests/tail-2/assert: * tests/tail-2/assert-2: * tests/touch/dangling-symlink: * tests/touch/dir-1: * tests/touch/empty-file: * tests/touch/fifo: * tests/touch/no-rights: Likewise.
