* doc/coreutils.texi (truncate invocation): Mention that --reference bases the --size rather than just setting it. * src/truncate.c (usage): Likewise. Also remove the clause describing --size and --reference as being mutually exclusive. (do_truncate): Add an extra parameter to hold the size of a referenced file, and use it if positive. (main): Pass the size of a referenced file to do_truncate(). * tests/misc/truncate-parameters: Adjust for the new combinations. * NEWS: Mention the change Suggested by Richard W.M. Jones
