sort: allow SI and IEC units on separate human sort fields

2009-07-03T16:00:55Z

* src/sort.c: Store the si_present state per key rather than globally * tests/misc/sort: Add a check that would have previously failed. Also add a test to demonstrate that invalid IEC/SI mixtures are not always noticed when they're not significant to the sort.

sort: Ignore fields where end position is before the start position

2009-06-13T00:25:06Z

* NEWS: Mention the fix * THANKS: Add Cliff Miller * src/sort.c (keycompare): Ensure lima >= texta * tests/misc/sort: Add 3 corresponding tests Signed-off-by: Pádraig Brady

sort: new --human-numeric-sort option to sort KiB MB etc.

2009-05-26T13:49:17Z

* NEWS: Document the new option * doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): ditto * src/sort.c (main): handle the new --human-numeric-sort option (-h). (human_numcompare): A new function to compare SI and IEC suffixes before falling back to the standard --numeric comparison. (find_unit_order): A new helper function to find the order of magnitude of a number string as determined by its suffix. (check_mixed_SI_IEC): A new helper function to exit with error if both SI and IEC suffixes are presented. * tests/misc/sort: Add 8 tests to test the new functionality. * THANKS: Update

tests: avoid unusual (~1-in-20) failure of a new test

2009-04-24T19:34:59Z

* tests/misc/sort: Remove one of the generated tests. 363 remain in this file alone.

sort -m: don't segfault when output file is also an input file

2009-04-23T19:03:14Z

* src/sort.c (avoid_trashing_input): Fix an off-by-one error and guard the use of memmove. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * tests/misc/sort: Add tests to exercise the offending code. * THANKS: Update. Reported by Otavio Salvador in http://bugs.debian.org/525048.

tests: sort: Check skipping blanks in multibyte locales

2009-02-28T01:09:18Z

* tests/misc/sort: On Fedora 8 at least, sort -k1b,1 mishandles blanks in multibyte locales, so add test.

sort: Fix two bugs with determining the end of field

2009-02-26T14:40:28Z

* src/sort.c: When no specific number of chars to skip is specified for the end field, always skip the whole field. Also never include leading spaces from next field. * tests/misc/sort: Add 2 new tests for these cases. * NEWS: Mention this bug fix. * THANKS: Add bug reporter. Reported by Davide Canova.

tests: refactor to use the new getlimits utility

2009-01-03T15:10:42Z

* tests/Coreutils.pm: Add function to make limits available * tests/test-lib.sh: ditto * tests/misc/join: Check for both SIZE_OFLOW and UINTMAX_OFLOW rather than using arbitrary 2^128 * tests/misc/sort: ditto * tests/misc/uniq: ditto * tests/misc/printf: Check for both INT_OFLOW and INT_UFLOW rather than using arbitrary -2^31 * tests/misc/seq-long-double: Check for INTMAX_OFLOW rather than using arbitrary 2^63 * tests/misc/split-fail: Check --lines --bytes and --line-bytes options limits on all platforms. Note getlimits obviates the need to use expr to check if 32 bit integers are supported, which I think was invalid anyway as expr now supports bignum? * tests/misc/test: Check for UINTMAX_OFLOW rather than using arbitrary 2^64 and 2^128. Check for INTMAX_UFLOW rather than using arbitrary -2^64 * tests/misc/timeout-parameters: Check for UINT_OFLOW rather than using arbitrary 2^32 * tests/misc/truncate-overflow: Don't depend on truncate to determine if we're on a 32 or 64 bit platform and instead use the various OFF_T limits * tests/misc/sort-merge: Check for UINTMAX_OFLOW rather than using arbitrary 2^64+1 * tests/misc/unexpand: ditto

tests: remove ugly /bin/sh wrapper around each perl-based test script

2008-05-17T06:27:58Z

* tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Save and restore TMPDIR around envvar-check, so that the few scripts that require $TMPDIR don't fail. This is also good to let a user's default TMPDIR setting be used e.g., in the search for an 'other-partition'. FIXME: this is pretty ugly. maybe undo it and find a better way. (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Invoke perl scripts with $(PERL), and use -T if the script requires that. Otherwise, use $(SHELL). * tests/misc/md5sum-newline: Create a file whose name contains a newline in Perl (resort to using "system", since open refuses). Fix old brokenness exposed by this change: * tests/du/files0-from: Correct test not to rely on stdin being attached to a non-tty. * tests/misc/sort (3g, 3h, 3i): Likewise: add explicit empty input file. Avoid warnings about using qw()-around-commas. * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Now that this test is run from a temporary subdirectory, adjust the full name of the "rm" program we're going to run. Change #!/bin/sh to #!/usr/bin/perl, and factor out the few lines of boilerplate code to invoke perl. Do not "require 5.00x"; a configure-time Perl test handles that * tests/dd/skip-seek: * tests/misc/base64: * tests/misc/basename: * tests/misc/cut: * tests/misc/date: * tests/misc/dircolors: * tests/misc/dirname: * tests/misc/expand: * tests/misc/expr: * tests/misc/factor: * tests/misc/fmt: * tests/misc/fold: * tests/misc/head: * tests/misc/head-elide-tail: * tests/misc/join: * tests/misc/ls-misc: * tests/misc/md5sum: * tests/misc/md5sum-newline: * tests/misc/mktemp: * tests/misc/od: * tests/misc/paste: * tests/misc/pr: * tests/misc/printf-cov: * tests/misc/seq: * tests/misc/sha1sum: * tests/misc/sha1sum-vec: * tests/misc/sha224sum: * tests/misc/sha256sum: * tests/misc/sha384sum: * tests/misc/sha512sum: * tests/misc/sort-merge: * tests/misc/stat-printf: * tests/misc/sum: * tests/misc/tac: * tests/misc/tail: * tests/misc/test: * tests/misc/test-diag: * tests/misc/tr: * tests/misc/tsort: * tests/misc/tty-eof: * tests/misc/unexpand: * tests/misc/uniq: * tests/misc/wc: * tests/misc/wc-files0-from: * tests/misc/xstrtol: * tests/mv/i-1: * tests/pr/pr-tests: * tests/rm/empty-name: * tests/rm/fail-eperm: * tests/rm/unreadable:
