It's much better than having to write it my hand each time; after all,
most of it is either boilerplate or a cope of NEWS entries.
* Makefile.am (determine_release_type): Also set the shell variable
'$announcement_type' appropriately.
(print-release-type): Print the value of this new variable as well.
(announcement): New phony target, generate a files with the same name.
The recipe uses the shell variable '$announcement_type'.
(CLEANFILES): Clean it.
(PACKAGE_MAILINGLIST): New make macro, used when generating the
'announcement' file.
* HACKING: Explain how to take advantage of the new convenience
target.
* .gitignore: Ignore the 'announcement' file.

This is related to commit v1.11-1704-g254227b of 2012-05-01,
"parallel-tests: avoid trailing backslashes in make recipes",
and automake bug#10436.
Recipes with a trailing backslash character (possibly followed by
blank characters only) can cause spurious syntax errors with at
least older bash versions (e.g., bash 2.05b), and can be potentially
be unportable to other weaker shells.
So provide a target that runs the testsuite looking for this kind
of breakage (without requiring a real bugged shell).
* t/ax/shell-no-trail-bslash.in: New, a "shell" that chokes on '-c'
commands having a trailing '\' (possibly followed by whitespace only).
* Makefile (t/ax/shell-no-trail-bslash): Generate this script from it.
(noinst_SCRIPTS, CLEANFILES): Add it.
(EXTRA_DIST): Add 't/ax/shell-no-trail-bslash.in'.
(check-no-trailing-backslash-in-recipes): New target, runs the testsuite
with 'shell-no-trail-bslash' as the CONFIG_SHELL, to catch possible
recipes having a trailing backslash character (possibly followed by
* .gitignore: Update.
* t/self-check-shell-no-trail-bslash.sh: New testsuite self-check.
* t/parallel-tests-trailing-bslash.sh: Remove as obsolete.

We can do so with minimal churn, now that the early setup of $PATH in
both 'runtest' and AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT allow the '.' built-in to find
to-be-sourced shell scripts in 't/ax' automatically, both in in-tree
and VPATH builds.
With this change, we take another step forward a more rational and
"segregated" organization of our testsuite framework.

Move our wrapper script 'runtest' (meant to allow the execution of
Automake test cases from the command line) from the 't/ax/' directory
to the top-level one. This makes the script easier to find and to
invoke. Much more importantly, our DejaGNU-checking test cases won't
try anymore to use that script instead of the 'runtest' program provided
by DejaGNU (that happened because '$(srcdir)/t/ax/' is automatically
added early to the $PATH variable in our test cases), which was causing
spurious SKIPs.

The latter is shorter and clearer. Better to do the rename early,
before other developers or contributors begin to get used to the
'test-runner' name.

I've unwittingly broken support for that feature *again* in some of
my recent testsuite tweaking. In this case, the re-execution code
works correctly when the tests are executed with a POSIX shells, but
breaks when they are invoked by an old-style Bourne shells (e.g.,
/bin/sh on Solaris).
It's time to face it: that feature is too much brittle, and too seldom
used (because the Makefile takes care of running the tests with the
correct shell anyway, so that a breakage is only experienced when
running the tests by hand). It just don't remain working for long, not
when we often touch the testsuite setup (which we are going to do again
when we'll try to move part of our testsuite framework to Gnulib, or a
similar project).
So, instead of trying to be extra-smart and automatically re-execute the
tests with the correct shell, we now offer a simple wrapper script that
the user can employ to run the test scripts with the proper shell. And
while we are at it, we write this wrapper to also deal with TAP tests in
a better way, running them through the prove(1) utility, so that their
results are correctly recognized and reported.
* t/ax/test-runner.in: New file; the wrapper script we were talking about.
* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Process it into 't/ax/test-runner'.
* .gitignore: Add 't/ax/test-runner'.
* defs: Remove code for automatic re-execution of the scripts with the
correct shell. This file now just a very thin layer around 'defs-static'
and 't/ax/test-init.sh'.
* t/README: Adjust, and remove or fix some imprecise or outdated text in
the process (like "... test scripts are written with portability in mind,
so that they should run with any decent Bourne-compatible shell ..." ).
* Makefile.am (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): No need to export 'AM_TESTS_REEXEC'
to "no" anymore.

We start passing the '--build-dir' option to the texi2dvi and texi2pdf
invocations done in our Texinfo-related rules. The argument for this
option will be specific for each info_TEXINFOS entry, to work around a
texi2dvi bug that could otherwise cause racy failures in parallel make
builds:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2012-06/msg00073.html>
That bug seems already fixed in the development version of texi2dvi,
though:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2012-06/msg00074.html>
so the details of our '--build-dir' usage can be revisited once we can
assume Texinfo 5.0 or later.
Since the '--build-dir' options has been only supported since Texinfo
4.9, we lose compatibility with all older Texinfo versions.
But we also get some real improvements.
First, the '--build-dir' option implies the '--tidy' option; this, like
the '--clean' option that we were formerly using, prevents cluttering of
the build directory with all the TeX and Texinfo auxiliary files and
build by-products, but, differently from '--clean', keeps them around
for later re-runs to use; this shortens the rebuild times considerably.
Second, the use of '--build-dir' also allows us to specify different
build directories for the PDF and DVI output, preventing the rules
building them from stomping on each other's feet when run in parallel.
This is demonstrated by the test cases 'txinfo-no-clutter.sh' and
'txinfo33.sh', which before this change used to fail when run with
MAKE="make -j4", but now succeed even in that case.
* NEWS: Update.
* lib/am/texibuilds.am: Do not try to avoid texi2dvi/texi2pdf option
'-o'; it has been supported since Texinfo 4.1, and we now require
Texinfo >= 4.9. Remove an obsolete comment. Modify calls to texi2dvi
and texi2pdf to use the '--build-dir' option, so that TeX auxiliary
files and build by-products for a 'foo.texi' input will be placed in
a 'foo.t2d' directory (for texi2dvi) or in a 'foo.t2p' directory (for
texi2pdf).
* automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Greatly simplify the implementation,
since we don't need anymore to keep track of the TeX auxiliary files and
build by-products to clean. Drop the '@CLEAN_FILES' part of the return
value.
(handle_texinfo_helper): Adjust the 'scan_texinfo_file()' call to its
new signature. Append the "work directories" now created by texi2dvi
and texi2pdf invocation to the list of files/directories removed upon
"make mostlyclean".
* lib/am/texinfos.am: Update the cleaning rules (and comments)
accordingly.
* t/txinfo-no-clutter.sh: Minimal adjustment to avoid spurious failures.
* .gitignore: Update.

Some tests in the Automake testsuite already aims only at verifying
the performance, rather than the correctness, of some operations.
Still, they are somewhat shoehorned and forced into the PASS/FAIL
framework (say, with the 'ulimit' shell builtin used to verify some
operation doesn't take up too much time or memory), but that is
conceptually a stretch, and has already caused problems in practice
(see automake bug#11512 for an example).
So we start moving the "performance tests" out of the testsuite proper,
and make them run only "on demand" (when the user exports the variable
'AM_TESTSUITE_PERF' to "yes"). Ideally, we should provide those tests
with a custom runner/driver that measures and displays the relevant
performance information, but doing that correctly and with the right
APIs is definitely more difficult, so we leave it for a later step
(an hope we'll take such a step eventually).

When we (soon) convert the Automake testsuite to a non-recursive
make setup, we'll have to fix the entries of $(TESTS) to be
prepended with the subdirectory they are in; this will increase
the length of $(TESTS), and thus increase the possibility of
exceeding the command-line length limits on some systems (most
notably, MinGW/MSYS). See automake bug#7868 for more information.
Thus we rename the 'tests/' subdirectory to 't/', and each 'x.test'
script in there to 'x.sh'; this way, the $(TESTS) entry 'foo.test'
will become 't/foo.sh', which have the same number of characters.

Recursive make-based build systems tend to be slower, more fragile
and less faithful than "flat" ones. See Peter Miller's article
"Recursive Make Considered Harmful" for more a more in-depth
discussion:
<http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/books/rmch/>
While in the case of automake this isn't a big problem (given the
small size of its build systems), it still creates occasional
glitches and annoyances.
With this change, the use of recursion in Automake's own build
system is eliminated *but for the testsuite*. Converting that
is a little more tricky, and better left for a later change (or
series of changes).

The 'is' helper script, used by some test cases since commit
'v1.11-1830-g96401cb' of 08-02-2012, "tests: better way to compare
lists in Makefile rules", is not available in VPATH builds, since
it resides in $(srcdir), nor in $(builddir), and only $(builddir)
is added to $PATH in the test script. This was causing spurious
failures.
Solve this issue by re-organizing a bit the layout and placing of
wrapper and help scripts used by the testsuite. This reorganization
is by no mean complete, but should be enough to solve the VPATH
issues.

The chapter on Automake history, while certainly interesting and
even fascinating, does not truly pertain to a reference manual,
so move it out from there and into its own dedicated file. This
change is made more advisable and pressing by the fact that such
and "Automake history" chapter hasn't been updated since the 1.9.6
release, so it has been becoming less faithful and useful since
then.
* doc/history.texi: New, manual on the history of the automake
package; extracted from ...
* doc/automake.texi: ... this file, with related adjustments.
* doc/Makefile.am (info_TEXINFOS): Add 'history.texi'.
(history_TEXINFOS): New, list included file 'fdl.texi'.
* Makefile.am (release-stats): Remove as obsolete.
* HACKING (Release Procedure): Don't advise anymore to run the
"release-stats" target and to update the manual with its output.
* NEWS: Update.
* .gitignore: Likewise.

Fixes automake bug#10434. Suggestion by Peter Rosin.
The 'depcomp.tap' test case worked by trying to unconditionally
force the compiler in use by the testsuite to use, one by one, *all*
the dependency modes known by the 'depcomp' script, and, for each
such forced mode that was compatible enough with said compiler not
to cause breakage in the basic compilation rules, checking that it
was *also* good enough not to break remake rules in VPATH builds.
This seemed a good approach when this test was first introduced, as
it apparently increased coverage for the less used and less tested
dependency-tracking modes. But in the log run it turned out the
approach was actually in part too brittle, causing some annoying
spurious failures (as with the Tru64 depmode forced on GCC, see
automake bug#10434), and partly too forgiving, since, for some of
the more corner-case dependency modes, the 'depcomp' script simply
reverts to silently disabling dependency tracking when an error is
encountered (this happened e.g., with the Tru64 depmode forced on
the Sun C compiler 5.9), so that a passing test means nothing, and
only gives a false sense of security.
As Peter Rosin put it, "it's just dead wrong to assume that feeding
-M or -xM to the compiler (or whatever other random stuff 'depcomp'
might do) and not get an error is the same as dependencies magically
appearing".
So we get rid of this wrong approach, and in the process proceed to
a complete overhaul of many of the tests on automatic dependency
tracking, extending the offered coverage and rationalizing their
organization.
* tests/depcomp.sh: New helper script, used by several new
autogenerated tests.
* tests/gen-testsuite-part: Generate several tests based on the
new 'depcomp.sh' script. Emit makefile code that declares their
dependency on that script, and that extends EXTRA_DIST in order
to distribute it.
* tests/depmod.tap: Remove.
* tests/depend2.test: Remove, it has been subsumed by the new
autogenerated test 'depcomp-disabled.tap'.
* tests/depcomp3.test: Remove, it has been subsumed by the new
autogenerated test 'depmod-dashmstdout.tap'.
* tests/depcomp3.test: Remove, it has been subsumed by the new
autogenerated test 'depmod-lt-makedepend.tap'.
* tests/depcomp6.test: Remove, it has been subsumed by the new
autogenerated test 'depmod-auto.tap'.
* tests/depcomp7.test: Remove, it has been subsumed by the new
autogenerated test 'depmod-lt-auto.tap'.
* tests/depcomp5.test: Remove as obsolescent.
* test/list-of-tests.mk: Adjust.
* .gitignore: List the new autogenerated tests.

This simplifies the organization of the Automake source tree and
reduces the (lamentably high) number of Makefiles in the Automake
build system by one. It also makes the maintainer check that
verifies the consistency of list of tests more self-contained and
simpler. Finally, it might be a first step forward the transition
to a non-recursive build system for automake (if we ever decide to
go down that road fully some day).
* lib/Automake/tests: All the '*.pl' tests in here moved ...
* tests/pm: ... into this new directory.
* lib/Automake/tests/Makefile.am: Remove, its meaningful
contents moved ...
* tests/Makefile.am: ... here, with obvious adjustments.

of 'maintainer-check-list-of-tests'.

Following the practice set by various other GNU projects, we start
to automatically generate the ChangeLog file from the git commit
messages. This will avoid duplication (as the ChangeLog entries
were always inserted both in the git commit message and in the
version-controlled ChangeLog file), and potential problems with
spurious merge conflicts (which, although greatly mitigated by
Bruno Haible's `git-merge-changelog' helper program, have never
been completely solved).
* ChangeLog: Moved ...

It has been quite some time since autoconf and libtool have stopped
committing the generated autotools files in their git repositories,
with no significant ill effects we're aware of. It's true that the
autoconf bootstrap process has now the minor annoyance that a
pre-installed autoconf is required to complete it; but luckily
automake will not have a similar annoyance, since our bootstrap
script take care, through some hoops, to use the very automake and
aclocal versions from the current git checkout to generate the
required aclocal.m4 and Makefile.in files. In fact, this has been
a necessity also in the past, because automake has been known to
use in its own build system new development features that hadn't
been present in any previously released automake distribution.

It seems cscope is not able to take into account relative
file names of included cscope.files files, but it is able to
canonicalize file names containing '../' sequences.
This patch makes the cscope references relative again, and
fixes some corner cases.

* NEWS: Reword a bit.
* THANKS: Update.
* automake.in (handle_tags): Use $(am__cd). Provide default
empty rule for the `cscope' target, for empty sources.
* lib/am/tags.am (cscopelist): Construct relative path to files
in $(srcdir) if $(srcdir) is relative.
