* maint: make update-copyrightJim Meyering2022-01-032-2/+2
|
* maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering2021-01-012-2/+2
| | | | | | | Run "make update-copyright" and then... * gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted. * tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year. * bootstrap: Likewise.
* doc: adjust formatting to make apropos (man -k) work betterJim Meyering2020-03-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | * man/Makefile.am $(dist_man1_MANS): Adjust sed substitution to also remove the space after "GNU". This avoids the single leading space on each man page title line. I'm guessing that interfered with indexing/searching, causing "man -k diff3" to print this: diff3 (1) - (unknown subject). Reported by Dan Jacobon in http://bugs.gnu.org/39769.
* doc: use program name, not "GNU", in the nroff/man headerJim Meyering2020-01-051-1/+2
| | | | | | | * man/Makefile.am (dist_man1_MANS): Elide "GNU " prefix from the generated prog+one-line-summary, so that help2man uses the program name rather than "GNU" as the nroff "name". Reported by Dan Jacobson in http://bugs.gnu.org/38574.
* maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering2020-01-012-2/+2
| | | | | | | Run "make update-copyright" and then... * gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted. * tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year. * bootstrap: Likewise.
* maint: update all copyright dates via "make update-copyright"Jim Meyering2019-01-012-2/+2
| | | | * gnulib: Also update submodule for its copyright updates.
* maint: update gnulib and copyright dates for 2018Jim Meyering2018-01-062-2/+2
| | | | | | * gnulib: Update to latest. * all files: Run "make update-copyright". * bootstrap: Update from gnulib.
* maint: update gnulib and copyright dates for 2017Jim Meyering2017-01-012-2/+2
| | | | | * gnulib: Update to latest. * all files: Run "make update-copyright".
* maint: update copyright year, bootstrap, init.shJim Meyering2016-01-012-2/+3
| | | | | | | | Run "make update-copyright" and then... * gnulib: Update to latest. * tests/init.sh: Update from gnulib. * bootstrap: Likewise.
* build: correct man-page generation ruleJim Meyering2015-09-011-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The PATH was set incorrectly, so that the diff used by help2man was the one from $PATH, rather than the just-built one. * man/Makefile.am (bin_dir): New variable, to... (dist_man1_MANS): ...prepend ../src to PATH, not just "..". Also, add a test to ensure that each $(bin_dir)/$$base is executable, so this doesn't happen again. In http://debbugs.gnu.org/21023, Rodrigo Valiña Gutiérrez reported that diff.1 from the diffutils-3.3 tarball contained no description of the then-new --no-dereference option.
* maint: update copyright year ranges to include 2015; update gnulibJim Meyering2015-01-012-2/+2

* build: double-quote use of $PATHKO Myung-Hun2014-12-091-1/+1
| | | | | | * man/Makefile.am (dist_man1_MANS): On OS/2, PATH_SEPARATOR is ';', but unquoted, that is interpreted as the shell's statement terminator. Quote it.
* maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering2013-01-042-3/+2
| | | | Run "make update-copyright".
* maint: quote 'like this' or "like this", not `like this'Paul Eggert2012-01-251-14/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is in response to a recent change in the GNU coding standards, which now suggest quoting 'like this' or "like this", instead of `like this' or ``like this''. * HACKING, NEWS, README, README-hacking, TODO, doc/diagmeet.note: * doc/diffutils.texi, ms/config.bat, ms/config.site: * src/analyze.c, src/cmp.c, src/context.c, src/diff.c: * src/diff.h, src/diff3.c, src/dir.c, src/ifdef.c, src/io.c: * src/sdiff.c, src/side.c, src/system.h, src/util.c: * tests/help-version: Quote 'like this' or "like this" in commentary. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Adjust to reflect new NEWS quoting. * man/help2man: Update to 1.40.4 version, with quoting fixed as above. * po/en.po: Remove translation involving `, as it's no longer needed. * src/cmp.c (try_help, specify_ignore_initial, usage, main): * src/diff.c (main, try_help, option_help_msgid, specify_value) (compare_files): * src/diff3.c (main, try_help, option_help_msgid, usage) (read_diff): * src/dir.c (compare_names): * src/sdiff.c (try_help, usage, check_child_status, main): * src/util.c (finish_output): * tests/help-version: Quote 'like this' in output.

| | | | Run "make update-copyright".
* build: don't require perl when building from a tarballJim Meyering2011-06-191-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | But do ensure -- in all other circumstances -- that the man/*.1 files are rebuilt whenever the version number changes. * configure.ac (SRC_VERSION_C): Define. * man/Makefile.am (dist_man1_MANS): Rename from $(man1_MANS), so that we distribute those pesky man/*.1 files. (EXTRA_DIST): Reflect name change. (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Define this, not DISTCLEANFILES, now that these generated files are distributed. ($(dist_man1_MANS)): Depend on $(SRC_VERSION_C), so we get the full dependency when not building from a tarball.
* doc: do not distribute generated man/*.1 man filesJim Meyering2011-06-132-10/+677
| | | | | | | | | | * man/help2man: New file. * man/Makefile.am: Use $(srcdir)/help2man. Convert $(dist_man1_MANS) to $(man1_MANS), to tell automake not to distribute the generated man/*.1 files. Now they're generated at build-from-tarball time. ($(man1_MANS)): Depend on version.c, so that man pages are regenerated whenever the version string changes.
* doc: ensure each program has a man/*.x file: add "SEE ALSO" referencesJim Meyering2011-06-125-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | * man/cmp.x: New file. * man/diff3.x: New file. * man/sdiff.x: New file. * man/diff.x: Add xrefs to the other three programs, and to patch. * man/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): List new files. (cmp.1, diff3.1, sdiff.1): Depend on each .x file.
* doc: rename diff.texi to diffutils.texiJim Meyering2011-06-121-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the .texi basename the same as the package name, which is consistent with most other GNU packages. * doc/diffutils.texi: Rename from... * doc/diff.texi: ...removed. * doc/Makefile.am (info_TEXINFOS): Reflect name change. (diffutils_TEXINFOS): Likewise. * cfg.mk (gendocs_options_): Remove this customization. It is no longer needed, now that the .texi name matches that of the package. * man/Makefile.am ($(dist_man1_MANS)): Remove now-unnecessary sed filter. * README: Update references to diffutils.texi etc. here, too. * .gitignore: Update here, too. Suggested by Karl Berry.
* doc: add a reference to wdiff(1) from diff.1Jim Meyering2011-03-182-3/+8
| | | | | | | | * man/diff.x: New file, to add "SEE ALSO" reference to wdiff(1). * man/Makefile.am (diff.1): Depend on diff.x. ($(dist_man1_MANS)): Tell help2man to include diff.x. (EXTRA_DIST): Add diff.x. Suggestion from Dan Jacobson in http://bugs.debian.org/613319
* maint: update copyright year ranges to include 2011Jim Meyering2011-01-031-1/+1
| | | | Run "make update-copyright", so "make syntax-check" works in 2011.
* maint: update all FSF copyright year lists to include 2010Jim Meyering2010-01-011-1/+1
| | | | | | Use this command: git ls-files |grep -vE '^(\..*|COPYING|gnulib)$' |xargs \ env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 build-aux/update-copyright
* maint: hide build commands behind $(AM_V_GEN)Jim Meyering2009-11-181-1/+1
| | | | | * src/Makefile.am (paths.h): Use $(AM_V_GEN), and split a long line. * man/Makefile.am ($(dist_man1_MANS)): Use $(AM_V_GEN) here, too.
* build: let automake generate better man-installation rulesJim Meyering2009-11-161-3/+3
| | | | | * man/Makefile.am (dist_man1_MANS): Rename from dist_man_MANS, to enable better automake-generated installation rules.
* admin: update all copyright notices to include the year 2009Jim Meyering2009-11-111-1/+1
