coreutils/tests/mv/symlink-onto-hardlink-to-self.sh
Stefano Lattarini 9eb4c31eb7 tests: add .sh and .pl suffixes to shell and perl tests, respectively
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.

# Demonstrate that when moving a symlink onto a hardlink-to-that-symlink, the
# source symlink is removed. Depending on your kernel (e.g., Linux, Solaris,
# but not NetBSD), prior to coreutils-8.16, the mv would successfully perform
# a no-op. I.e., surprisingly, mv s1 s2 would succeed, yet fail to remove s1.
