It was useful only back when coreutils used CVS as its version
control system.
* build-aux/cvsu: Delete.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove it.
* cfg.mk: Remove the two exemptions for this removed file.
For example, instead of factoring out the extra linker flags needed
by 'cp', 'mv' ind 'install' into a '$(copy_LDADD)' variable, factor
them out in a '$(copy_ldadd)' variable.
Partly a minor cleanup, partly a preparation for future changes.
* src/Makefile.am (copy_LDADD): Rename ...
(copy_ldadd): ... like this.
(remove_LDADD): Rename ...
(remove_ldadd): ... like this.
All uses adjusted. Some comments updated.
Partly a minor cleanup, partly a preparation for future changes.
* Makefile.am (all_programs): Rename ...
(all-progs-but-lbracket): ... like this, and re-define it to expand
at make time rather than only at recipe time (i.e., using $(shell ...)
instead of `...`).
(check-programs-vs-x): Adjust.
* scripts/autotools-install: New script, so you can always build
from git-cloned sources, even when they require bleeding edge
m4, autoconf, automake, etc.
* cfg.mk: We exempt a few test files that would otherwise trigger
false-positive matches in syntax-check rules. The recent change
that added a .sh or .pl suffix to each test script made it so
some of the exclusion regexps would no longer match.
Include the required \.sh suffix in each such regexp, too.
It's now easier and faster to simply run the perl ans shell test
scripts directly with the appropriate interpreter and options.
* tests/shell-or-perl: Delete.
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove it.
(SH_LOG_COMPILER): Re-define to invoke the correct shell.
(PL_LOG_COMPILER): Re-define to invoke the correct perl
interpreter ...
(TESTSUITE_PERL_OPTIONS): ... with the correct options.
(XPL_LOG_COMPILER): Use those options instead of inlining
their expansion.
(LOG_COMPILER): Delete, no longer needed.
Not only this shrinks the size of the generated Makefile (from > 6300
lines to ~3000), but will allow further simplifications in future
changes.
* tests/Makefile.am (TEST_EXTENSIONS): Add '.sh' and '.pl'.
(PL_LOG_COMPILER, SH_LOG_COMPILER): New, still defined simply to
$(LOG_COMPILER) for the time being.
(TESTS, root_tests): Adjust as described.
* All tests: Rename as described.
* configure.ac (AM_CONDITIONAL): Set the conditional 'HAVE_PERL' to
true if the configure-time checks (as run by gl_PERL) have been able
to find a working perl.
* tests/no-perl: New script, report a diagnostic about "missing perl"
and exit with status 77.
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute it.
(TESTSUITE_PERL): New, define to '$(PERL)' if a perl interpreter has
been found at configure time (i.e., if the 'HAVE_PERL' automake
conditional is true), and to '$(srcdir)/no-perl' otherwise.
(LOG_COMPILER): Use $(TESTSUITE_PERL) instead of $(PERL).
(XPL_LOG_COMPILER): Likewise.
* tests/shell-or-perl: Simplify: no need to actually check whether
perl is working.
* tests/rm/fail-eperm: Rename ...
* tests/rm/fail-eperm.xpl: ... like this
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Adjust.
(TEST_EXTENSIONS): New, list '.xpl'.
(XPL_TEST_LOGS): New, run a perl test in tainted mode.
* tests/shell-or-perl: Simplify this script: we no longer need to
parse the shebang line and adjust the flags in the perl invocation
accordingly.
Now that we use AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT, we must require
Automake >= 1.11.2.
* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Bump version requirement to 1.11.2.
* bootstrap.conf ($buildreq): Likewise.
The separation has become unnecessary after all the ancient
'tests/*/Makefile.am' makefiles have been merged into the
"more-top-level" one 'tests/Makefile.am'.
* tests/check.mk: Merge ...
* tests/Makefile.am: ... in here. Some comments tweaking while
at it.
This is not strictly required now (it will be once we make more
parts of the coreutils build system non-recursive), but enabling
it early helps to ensure that we don't unwittingly introduce any
incompatibility or subtle breakage later.
* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Add 'subdir-objects'.
We may well want to switch from checking all *.texi to
checking only version-controlled .texi files, so encapsulate
this concept in one place.
* doc/local.mk (doc_srcdir): Delete. Use this instead:
(texi_files): Define. All usages adjusted.
* cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase): Here, by grafting the 'man/'
prefix to the manpages obtained from $(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT)
and listed as prerequisites for this rule.
This is more natural, now that the top-level Makefile has access to
all the variables and rules once defined only in 'man/Makefile.am'
* man/local.mk (all_programs, sc_option_desc_uppercase,
sc_man_file_correlation check-x-vs-1, check-programs-vs-x): Move
from here ...
* cfg.mk: ... to here. Adjust some comments in the process.
* Makefile.am: Include 'man/local.mk'.
(SUBDIRS): Remove 'man'.
* configure.ac ($MAN): Adjust so that each of its entries has a leading
'man/' component.
(AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'man/Makefile'.
* man/Makefile.am: Rename ...
* man/local.mk: ... like this. With further adjustments: each 'foo.1'
target renamed like 'man/foo.1', each '../src/foo.c' dependency as
'src/foo.c', and each '$(srcdir)' usage as '$(srcdir)/man'. Also ...
(mandep): Adjust, removing the leading '../' component.
Several whitespace adjustments while at it.
(ASSORT): Remove, it's already defined in the top-level Makefile.am.
* cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase, sc_man_file_correlation): Remove
the associated recipes, they are now directly available from the
included 'man/local.mk'. Actually, the other changes in this commit
have made these recipes instable and not completely correct, but that
will be fixed in later changes.
This change is merely required to make future changes easier.
In particular, since we are going to merge the contents of
'man/Makefile.am' into the top-level Makefile, we need to avoid
conflicts with the rules and variables in 'dist-check.mk', and
to prepare for changes in the value of the '$*' variable as used
in the recipe of the '.x -> .1' suffix rule.
* man/Makefile.am (t, mapped_name): Delete, inlining their use ...
(.1.x): ... in the recipe of this suffix rule. Other adjustments
to prepare to changes in the value of the '$*' automatic variable.
While at it, made more resilient about unlikely but possible failure.
Adjust and reorder few comments.
This will be mostly useful in future changes.
* Makefile.am (all_programs): New, simply work by delegating to
the same-named target in the 'src/' subdirectory.
* cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase): Take advantage of it.
(sc_man_file_correlation): Likewise.
* man/Makefile.am: In all the 'foo.1' targets, no need to depend
explicitly on '$(srcdir)/foo.x': the '.x.1' suffix rule takes care
of that automatically.
This is mostly a preparatory refactoring in view of future changes.
* man/Makefile.am (common_dep): Rename ...
(mandep): ... like this.
All usages adjusted.
* doc/Makefile.am: Rename ...
* doc/local.mk: ... like this. With further adjustments ...
(info_TEXINFOS): Prepend 'doc/' to all '*.texi' files listed in
here.
(coreutils_TEXINFOS): Likewise, and rename ...
(doc_coreutils_TEXINFOS): ... like this.
(constants.texi): Rename ...
(doc/constants.texi): ... like this. Adjust the recipe to avoid
spurious errors.
(MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Adjust, and extend with '+=' rather than
setting it with '='.
(ME): Delete.
(find_upper_case_var): Use '$@', not '$(ME)', in error messages.
* Makefile.am: Include 'doc/local.mk'.
(SUBDIRS): Remove 'doc'.
* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'doc/Makefile'.
* doc/Makefile.am (check-local): Here, by making this depend
on 'check-texinfo' ...
(check): ... rather than this. While the old usage worked, it
did so for an implementation detail rather than a documented
behaviour, so relying on that was riskier a "unclean".
This is just a preparatory refactoring that will become useful in
a future change (in which the doc/Makefile.am makefile will be merged
with the top-level one).
* doc/Makefile.am (doc_srcdir): New, define to '$(top_srcdir)/doc'.
Use it throughout instead of "bare" '$(srcdir)'.
* doc/Makefile.am (coreutils_TEXINFO): List them here, instead of ...
(EXTRA_DIST): ... listing them here. This ensures the rebuild rules
will be more faithful.
($(DVIS), $(INFO_DEPS)): No need to depend on $(EXTRA_DIST) now.
It's last use had been removed in commit v8.12-3-g3ed91fc of 2011-04-28,
"tests: remove useless test: misc/pwd-unreadable-parent".
* tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Adjust.

This change enables tail -f to use inotify and lets
stat -f --format=%T report the file system type name, "zfs".
* src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add a case: zfs, 0x2fc12fc1.
* NEWS (Improvements): Mention it.
* THANKS.in: Update.
Reported by Raimonds Miltins in http://bugs.gnu.org/12301.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Remove all uses of @acronym{...},
per recommendation by Karl Berry.
* doc/perm.texi: Likewise.
* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Remove exemption, enabling
the @acronym{-prohibiting syntax-check rule.
