2011-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering1-1/+1
Run "make update-copyright".
2010-12-28coreutils: keep lines within 80-column limitsPaul Eggert1-1/+4
* cfg.mk (LINE_LEN_MAX, FILTER_LONG_LINES): New macros. (sc_long_lines): New rule. * HACKING: Use shorter URLs to the same material. * doc/Makefile.am, doc/coreutils.texi, m4/boottime.m4: * man/help2man, man/stdbuf.x, src/Makefile.am, src/cat.c, src/copy.c: * src/cp.c, src/dd.c, src/df.c, src/du.c, src/groups.c, src/install.c: * src/ls.c, src/md5sum.c, src/mv.c, src/od.c, src/pinky.c, src/ptx.c: * src/readlink.c, src/remove.c, src/rmdir.c, src/setuidgid.c: * src/sort.c, src/tail.c, src/touch.c, tests/Coreutils.pm: * tests/cp/existing-perm-race, tests/cp/perm, tests/cp/preserve-gid: * tests/du/2g, tests/du/long-from-unreadable, tests/init.sh: * tests/install/basic-1, tests/ls/nameless-uid: * tests/ls/readdir-mountpoint-inode, tests/misc/chroot-credentials: * tests/misc/cut, tests/misc/date, tests/misc/join, tests/misc/md5sum: * tests/misc/sha1sum, tests/misc/sha224sum, tests/misc/sort: * tests/misc/sort-continue, tests/misc/sort-files0-from: * tests/misc/sort-rand, tests/misc/stdbuf, tests/misc/tr: * tests/misc/uniq, tests/mv/atomic, tests/mv/part-fail: * tests/mv/part-symlink, tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart, tests/pr/pr-tests: * tests/rm/fail-2eperm, tests/rm/interactive-always: Reformat to fit within 80 columns. * doc/Makefile.am (BAD_POSIX_PERL): New macro. * doc/coreutils.texi: Reword slightly, to make menus and index lines shorter. * src/md5sum.c: Redo --help output so that it fits within 79 columns, since that's a bit more portable and all the other --help strings fit in 79 columns.
2010-01-01maint: update all FSF copyright year lists to include 2010Jim Meyering1-2/+1
Use this command: git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \ | xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \ build-aux/update-copyright
2009-09-21doc: mention the texinfo documentation in --helpPádraig Brady1-0/+6
* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C' (and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page. Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command. Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it. * man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the --help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man. Suggestion from C de-Avillez
2009-02-02doc: preserve --help line breaks in 'REPORTING BUGS' man page sectionJim Meyering1-0/+3
* man/help2man: Insert .br between adjacent lines.
2009-01-27doc: restore "REPORTING BUGS" section to generated man pagesJim Meyering1-2/+2
* man/help2man ($PAT_BUGS): Update regexp to match the newer "Report PROG bugs ..." --help output, as well as "Report bugs...". Reported by Eric Blake.
2008-12-17doc: Remove curly quotes from shell examples in man pagesPádraig Brady1-1/+1
Use \(aq rather than a literal ' as groff will convert apostrophe to a right quote (\u2029) in utf8 locales for example. Stepan Kasal details the issue and fix here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2008-12/msg00124.html
2008-05-06fix typo in comments: s/ouput/output/Jim Meyering1-1/+1
adjust spelling in that same comment: s/localisation/localization/
2008-05-06help2man: fix perl 5.10 problem properlyJim Meyering1-2/+2
* man/help2man: Do pull LC_ALL via "use POSIX". Instead, limit the importing of gettext-related symbols to just those two we'll use: gettext and textdomain.
2008-05-05help2man: avoid failure with Debian unstable's Perl 5.10.0Jim Meyering1-1/+1
Avoid failure that produced this diagnostic: Constant subroutine main::LC_ALL redefined at /.../Exporter.pm * man/help2man: Don't include LC_ALL in the "use POSIX" list, since Locale::gettext->import will get it.
2008-01-26Emit "info coreutils 'PROG invocation'" into the man page,Jim Meyering1-2/+2
rather than just "info PROG". The latter would often fail or simply display the man page. * man/help2man: Change the template. Prompted by http://bugs.debian.org/399684

2004-04-20Accept new option: --program-name=NAME, so that weJim Meyering1-0/+6
can override the one in --version output. This is needed solely so that test.1 doesn't refer to `[' as the program name. Reported by Benjamin Cutler as http://bugs.debian.org/205251.
