6	a bug that lost many msgids in doc/diffutils.pot.
7	* bootstrap: New file.
8	* exgettext: Don't generate a temporary file, as this runs afoul
9	of "make distcheck" which operates with read-only directories.
10	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add bootstrap.
11	Remove config/config.rpath as it is deduced automatically these days.
12

33	jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG, jm_PREREQ_REGEX, AC_FUNC_FNMATCH_GNU, jm_AC_DOS):
34	Remove; not needed here, as our files don't use them directly
35	or we rely on gnulib modules.

38	time.h.

45	(AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS): Remove.
46
47	* doc/diff.texi (dircategory): Change to "Text creation and
48	manipulation" from "GNU packages".
49	(Translations): New node.
50	(Overview): Improve quality of algorithm citations.
51	(Binary): -q doesn't exactly cause diff to assume files are binary.
52	(Normal): Place after Side by Side, since it's less important.
53	(Detailed Context, Detailed Unified, Detailed ed,
54	Detailed if-then-else, diff3 Hunks, Detailed diff3 Normal):
55	Place at end of menu.
56	(Detailed Unified): Mention that fractional timestamps are

72
73	* lib/inttostr.c (inttostr): Protect i < 0 by compile-time
74	test intended to suppress compiler warnings.
75	* lib/inttostr.h: Include limits.h unilaterally.
76	(CHAR_BIT): Remove.
77	(PARAMS): Remove; all uses changed.
78	* lib/setmode.c (__attribute__): New macro.
79	(set_binary_mode): Define only if HAVE_SETMODE_DOS.
80	Otherwise define a dummy static char, as C89 requires
81	that we define something.
82	* lib/setmode.h (set_binary_mode): Return true, not 1.
83
84	* src/analyze.c, src/context.c, src/diff.c, src/io.c, src/util.c:
85	Do not include regex.h, as diff.h does this now.
86
87	* src/cmp.c: Sort includes.  Include <exit.h>, <unlocked-io.h>.
88	(specify_comparison_type): Don't report an error if the comparison
89	type has already been specified the same way as this one.

109	(longopts): Set tabsize flag to 1.
110	(main): Don't output nanoseconds if platform lacks them.
111	Don't treat files as binary if !binary.
112	(set_mtime_to_now): Use 0, not NULL.
113	(compare_files): Mark files as nonexistent if it looks like
114	'patch' created inaccessible regular empty files to denote
115	nonexistent backups.  Don't compare such files.
116	Clear st_* members of status of	nonexistent file.
117	Remove now-unnecessary tests.
118
119	* src/diff.h: Include regex.h, unlocked-io.h.
120	(struct file_data.changed): Now char *, not bool *, to save
121	space on hosts where bool takes more space than char.
122	All uses changed.
123
124	* src/diff3.c: Include unlocked-io.h.
125	(strip_trailing_cr): New var.
126	(STRIP_TRAILING_CR_OPTION): New enum.
127	(longopts, main, option_help_msgid, read_diff):
128	Add --strip-trailing-cr support.
129	(read_diff): Exit with status 126 (not 127) if errno != ENOENT
130	after failed execvp in child.  Report this in parent.
131
132	* src/dir.c: Include <strcase.h>.
133	(failed_locale_specific_sorting): Renamed from failed_strcoll.
134	All uses changed.
135	(compare_names): Don't invoke strcasecmp first thing when
136	ignore_file_name_case; if locale_specific_sorting, we should
137	just use that.
138
139	* src/ifdef.c (next_line): Remove; replace with...
140	(next_line0, next_line1): New vars.
141	(print_ifdef_script, print_ifdef_hunk):
142	Use them to fix line-number computation bug.
143
144	* src/io.c (find_and_hash_each_line): Don't convert char *
145	to unsigned char *; just leave pointers as char *.  This
146	lessens the number of potentially-dangerous casts.
147	* src/util.c (lines_differ): Likewise.
148
149	* src/sdiff.c: Include <unlocked-io.h>, <exit.h>.
150	(check_child_status): Renamed from ck_editor_status, and
151	accept a new arg MAX_OK_STATUS.  All callers changed.
152	Handle status 126/127 as per POSIX.
153	(edit): Likewise.
154	(main): Likewise.  Fix getopt typo: -E wasn't supported.
155
156	* src/system.h (S_IRWXU, S_IRWXG, S_IRWXO): Define if not defined.
157	(S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, S_IXOTH): Remove.
158	Include <time.h> unconditionally, since we can assume C89 now.
159	Likewise for <stdlib.h>, <string.h>.
160	(getenv, EXIT_SUCCESS, EXIT_FAILURE, SSIZE_MAX, strchr, strrchr,
161	memcmp, memcpy): Remove decl; no longer needed.
162	(strcasecoll, strcasecmp): Define if not built in.
163	(CTYPE_DOMAIN, ISPRINT, ISSPACE, TOLOWER, _tolower, errno): Remove;
164	we now assume C89 or better.  All uses changed.
165	Include <stdbool.h> unconditionally now, since gnulib supports it
166	if the C compiler doesn't.  All boolean uses of 0 and 1 now
167	changed to false and true.
168	(lin_is_printable_as_long_int): Renamed from lin_is_printable_as_long.
169
170	* src/util.c (begin_output): Fix bug: 0 wasn't cast to char * arg,
171	which led to undefined behavior on 64-bit hosts.
172	Use more-standard test for exit status 126 versus 127.
173	(finish_output): Likewise.
174	(analyze_hunk): Do not cast bool to int.

177
178	* src/cmp.c (main): Don't consider two files with the same name to
179	be the same, if their initial skip values differ.  This fixes a
180	bug reported by Hideki Iwamoto in
181	<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2004-03/msg00024.html>.
182
1832004-03-11  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
184
185	* src/analyze.c (diag): Return void, not lin, since the return
186	value wasn't needed.  All callers changed.
187	(diag, diff_2_files):
188	Use 'true' and 'false' instead of '1' and '0', when appropriate.
189	(compareseq): Use lin const * local variables instead of lin *.
190	Don't bother checking diag's return value.
191	(shift_boundaries, build_reverse_script, build_script, diff_2_files):
192	Use char arrays, not bool arrays, since
193	sizeof (bool) might be greater than 1.
194
1952004-02-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
196
197	* m4/setmode.m4 (AC_FUNC_SETMODE_DOS): AC_LIBOBJ(setmode) if
198	we would return true.
199
2002002-10-14  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
201
202	* src/Makefile.am (diff3.$(OBJEXT), diff.$(OBJEXT),
203	sdiff.$(OBJEXT)): Rename from (misspelled) diff3.$(OBJECT),
204	diff.$(OBJECT), sdiff.$(OBJECT).  Patch by Paul D. Smith in
205	<http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-gnu-utils/2002-October/003251.html>.
206	Bug reported by Chris Bainbridge.
207
2082002-10-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
209
210	* src/Makefile.am (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Add paths.ht.
211	(paths.h): Send output to paths.ht first, and then rename to
212	paths.h at the end.  This avoids problems if the disk is full.
213	It also works around what appears to be a bug with GNU make -j
214	(3.79.1); see <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8934>.
215
2162002-06-27  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

225
226	* src/analyze.c (briefly_report): Don't say "Binary files differ",
227	since one of the files may not be a binary file.
228	Bug reported by Dan Jacobson.
229
2302002-06-22  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
231
232	* lib/c-stack.c (segv_handler, c_stack_action) [! defined
233	SA_SIGINFO]: Do not assume SA_SIGINFO behavior.

954	* src/sdiff.c (interact): After extracting rlen from the editor
955	command, test for a terminating null character, not for a newline.
956
957	* ms/config.bat: Allow longer source directory names without
958	overflowing the line length limits.  Create the cache in the
959	build directory, not in the source directory

982	Check for pclose failure properly.
983	(main, edit): If child exec fails, exit with 127 rather than trying to
984	print diagnostic.
985	Distinguish between subsidiary program failing and not being found.
986	(edit): Handle signals the same way, regardless of whether we're using
987	system or fork+exec.  Check for system returning -1.

1003	(option_help_msgid): Default context is 3, not 2.

1042
1043	* lib/setmode.c (set_binary_mode) [HAVE_SETMODE_DOS]: Don't assume
1044	O_TEXT has a zero value.  If FD is a terminal device, do nothing
1045	and return MODE, thus pretending that it was already in the
1046	requested MODE.
1047	[HAVE_FCNTL_H]: Include fcntl.h (needed for O_BINARY).
1048

2153	(CTYPE_DOMAIN, ISDIGIT, ISPRINT, ISSPACE, ISUPPER): New macros that
2154	work around common <ctype.h> problems.
2155	(O_BINARY): Remove.
2156	(SYSTEM_QUOTE_ARG): New macros.

2171
2172Tue Sep 13 18:46:43 1994  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
2173
2174	* configure.in (AC_FUNC_MEMCHR): Remove.  Autoconf didn't adopt this,
2175	since we need not worry about an old experimental library
2176	where memchr didn't work.
2177	(AC_FUNC_MEMCMP): Not needed, since we only test for equality.
2178	(AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add test for memchr.
2179	(AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Check for memchr, not memcpy, since it'll be cached.
2180	(AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add string.h; regex.c uses on some old hosts.
2181
2182	* system.h (memcmp): Define in terms of bcmp.
2183	Use HAVE_MEMCHR to test for all mem* routines.
2184
2185	* Makefile.in (srcs): Remove memcmp.c.
2186	We use bcmp if memcmp doesn't work, since we only test for equality.
2187
2188Mon Sep 12 15:52:22 1994  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
2189
2190	* configure.in (AC_CONFIG_HEADER): Rename config.h.in to config.hin.
2191	(AC_ISC_POSIX, AC_MINIX): Go back to these old names for Autoconf 2.
2192	(AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Remove now-redundant check for <string.h>.
2193	(AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Check for strchr.
2194	(AC_FUNC_MEMCHR, AC_FUNC_MEMCMP, AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Use special-purpose
2195	macros when suitable.

2197	* Makefile.in (CPPFLAGS, DEFS, CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, prefix, exec_prefix):
2198	Default to autoconf-specified strings.
2199	(COMPILE): Use the defaults.

2202	(Makefile, config.h, config.hin, config.status): Rework for
2203	compatibility with Autoconf 2.
2204	* io.c (binary_file_p): Assume non-broken memchr.
2205	* memchr.c: Assume compiler understands void *; otherwise
2206	we don't match GCC's internal declaration of memchr.
2207	* system.h: Use more modern autoconf approach to standard C headers.
2208	* version.c: Include <config.h>, not "config.h".
2209
2210	* diff.c, diff.h (ignore_some_line_changes):
2211	New variable; replaces `length_varies'.
2212	(line_end_char): Replace with '\n'; it wasn't being used consistently.
2213
2214	* io.c (find_and_hash_each_line): Fix inconsistencies with -b -w -i and
2215	incomplete lines.  Put incomplete lines into their own bucket.
2216	This means line_cmp no longer needs line length arguments,
2217	and equivalence classes' line lengths no longer need to include \n.
2218	Invoke line_cmp only if ignore_some_line_changes.
2219	(prepare_text_end): -B no longer ignores missing newlines.
2220	(read_files): Allocate another bucket for incomplete lines.
2221
2222	* util.c (line_cmp): Now takes just two arguments.  No longer
2223	optimizes for common case of exact equality; the caller does that
2224	optimization now.  The caller is changed accordingly.
2225	Optimize for the common case of mostly equality.
2226	Use isupper+tolower instead of islower+toupper, for consistency.
2227
2228	* waitpid.c (waitpid): Fix typo with internal scoping.
2229

2239	Change VOID_CLOSEDIR to CLOSEDIR_VOID for Autoconf 2.
2240	* sdiff.c, util.c (memchr, waitpid): Remove; use new substitutes.
2241	* diff3.c (read_diff): Use new waitpid substitute.
2242
2243	* cmp.c, diff.c, diff3.c, sdiff.c (check_stdout, try_help): New fns.
2244	(usage): Just print more detailed usage message; let caller exit.

2255	make sure SIGCHLD isn't ignored.
2256
2257	* diff3.c (DIFF_CHUNK_SIZE): Removed.  Get size from STAT_BLOCKSIZE.
2258	(INT_STRLEN_BOUND): New macro.

2264	(S_IXGRP, S_IXOTH, S_IXUSR): Remove unused macros.
2265
2266	* util.c (begin_output): Check fdopen result.
2267
2268	The following changes simplify porting to non-Posix environments.
2269	* cmp.c, diff.c, diff3.c, sdiff.c, (main): Call initialize_main first.
2270	* diff.c (binary_I_O): New variable for --binary option.
2271	(main, usage, compare_files): Support --binary option.
2272	(compare_files): Use filename_lastdirchar to find last
2273	directory char in a file name.
2274	* cmp.c (main), diff.c (compare_files), dir.c (compare_names,
2275	diff_dirs): Use filename_cmp to compare file names.
2276	Use same_file to determine whether two files are the same.
2277	* context.c (print_context_label): Check whether ctime yields 0.
2278	* diff3.c (read_diff), sdiff.c (cleanup, main, waitpid),
2279	util.c (begin_output): Use popen+pclose if !HAVE_FORK.
2280	* io.c (sip): If HAVE_SETMODE, test for binary files in O_BINARY mode.
2281	* sdiff.c (ck_fdopen): Function removed.
2282	(edit): Use system if !HAVE_FORK.

2285	(private_tempnam): Try TMP if TMPDIR isn't defined.
2286	Fit temporary filenames into 8.3 limit.

2298
2299	* cmp.c, io.c (word): Change from typedef to #define, to avoid
2300	collision with Unicos 8.0 <sys/types.h>, which also typedefs `word'.
2301
2302Thu Apr 15 00:53:01 1994  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2303
2304	* diff3.c (scan_diff_line), util.c (print_number_range): Don't
2305	rely on promotion to make the old-style parameter type agree
2306	with the prototype parameter type; this doesn't work on
2307	Apollos running bsd4.3.
2308
2309Mon Jan  3 02:05:51 1994  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2310
2311	* Makefile.in (LDFLAGS): Remove -g.  Change all link commands

2314Mon Dec 13 12:23:27 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2315
2316	* system.h: Don't assume dirent.h exists just because

2328
2329	* Version 2.6 released.
2330
2331	* analyze.c (too_expensive): New variable, for heuristic to
2332	limit the worst-case cost to O(N**1.5 log N) at the price of
2333	producing suboptimal output for large inputs with many differences.
2334	(diff_2_files): Initialize it.
2335	(struct partition): New type.
2336	(SNAKE_LIMIT): New macro; merely documents already-used number 20.

2345	(usage): Send usage to stdout, not stderr.
2346	(compare_files): Initialize `inf' properly.
2347
2348	* io.c (word): Change to `int'; it makes a big difference on x86.
2349	(sip, slurp): Put off allocating room to hold the whole file until we
2350	have to read the whole file.  This wins if the file turns out
2351	to be binary.
2352
2353	* util.c (xmalloc, xrealloc): "virtual memory" -> "memory"
2354	(primes): Omit large primes if INT_MAX is small.

2398	to suppress bogus warnings on some nonstandard hosts.
2399	(memchr): Make first arg char const *

2420
2421	* system.h (malloc, realloc): Declare only if !HAVE_STDLIB_H.

2426	need it for size_t even if STDC_HEADERS.

2437	* sdiff.c (xmalloc): Likewise.
2438
2439	* ifdef.c (format_group): Ensure isdigit argument isn't < 0.
2440
2441	* side.c (print_half_line): Use isprint, since some hosts lack isgraph.

2443	(xmalloc, xrealloc): Remove needless casts.
2444
2445	* system.h (volatile, const):
2446	Define these before including any system headers,
2447	so that they're used consistently in all system includes.
2448	(getenv, malloc, realloc): Declare even if HAVE_STDLIB_H, since some
2449	<stdlib.h>s don't declare them.
2450	(memchr): Likewise for <string.h>.

2468	work on ttys.
2469
2470	* system.h, version.c: #include <config.h>, not "config.h", to allow
2471	configuring in a separate directory when the source directory has
2472	already been configured.
2473	* Makefile.in (COMPILE): New defn, with proper -I options so that
2474	`#include <config.h>' works.
2475	(.c.o, diff3.o, sdiff.o): Use it.
2476
2477Mon Sep 13 06:45:43 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)

2483	(struct group): New struct.
2484	(print_ifdef_lines): Use it to simplify argument passing.
2485	Remove the convention that last arg -1 signifies that the lines
2486	from file 2 are the same as the lines from file 1; this
2487	convention no longer works, now that line numbers might be
2488	printed out, since the line numbers may differ.
2489	Add first FILE * argument to output to.  All callers changed.
2490	Use a faster test for the single-fwrite optimization.
2491	(format_group, scan_printf_spec, groups_letter_value): New functions.

2501	these standard names to the traditional names (bcmp, bcpy, index,
2502	rindex, struct direct).  All callers changed.
2503
2504	* system.h (PARAMS, VOID):
2505	Define earlier so that malloc decl can use VOID.
2506	(STAT_BLOCKSIZE): Simplify ersatz defn; just use 8K.
2507
2508Fri Sep  3 00:21:02 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2509
2510	* diff.c (compare_files): Two files with the same name must be
2511	the same file; avoid a needless `stat' in that case.

2513Fri Aug 27 06:59:03 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2514
2515	* Pervasive changes for portability to 64-bit hosts:
2516	Add prototypes to function declarations.
2517	Use size_t, not int, when needed.
2518
2519	* Other pervasive changes:
2520	Use `const' more often.
2521	Use STD{IN,OUT,ERR}_FILENO instead of [012].
2522	Use 0, not NULL, for portability to broken hosts.
2523
2524	* Makefile.in: (srcs, objs, distfiles, cmp): New files cmpbuf.[ch].
2525	(distfiles): New files config.h.in, mkinstalldirs.
2526	(.c.o): Add -DHAVE_CONFIG_H.
2527
2528	* analyze.c: (diag): Pacify `gcc -Wall' with a useless assignment.

2530
2531	* cmp.c: Make globals static when possible.
2532
2533	(file): Now a 2-element array; replaces `file1' and `file2'.
2534	(file_desc, buffer): Likewise, for file[12]_desc and buf[12].
2535	(main): Likewise, for stat_buf[12].  Index these variables with `i'.
2536
2537	(ignore_initial): New var.
2538	(long_options): Now const.  Add `--ignore-initial'.
2539	(usage): Sort options and add `--ignore-initial'.
2540	(main, cmp): Add `--ignore-initial' support.
2541
2542	(main): `cmp - -' now succeeds.
2543	When comparing standard input to a file, and using a shortcut (e.g.
2544	looking at file sizes or inode numbers), take the lseek offset into
2545	account before deciding whether the files are identical.
2546	Avoid mentioning `dev_t', `ino_t' for portability to nonstandard hosts.
2547	Use l.c.m. of files' buffer sizes, not 8 * 1024.
2548	ferror (stdout) does not imply errno has a useful value.
2549	If 2nd file is "-", treat it first, in case stdin is closed.
2550
2551	(cmp): Always compute `char_number', `smaller' for speed and simplicity.
2552	Say `cmp: EOF on input', not `/usr/gnu/bin/cmp: EOF on input',
2553	as per Posix.2.
2554
2555	(block_compare_and_count): Increment line_number argument.
2556	Remove end_char argument; it's always '\n'.  All callers changed.
2557	Do not assume sizeof(long) == 4; this isn't true on some 64-bit hosts.
2558	(block_compare): Minimize differences with block_compare_and_count.
2559
2560	(block_read): Coalesce `bp += nread's.
2561
2562	(printc): Remove `FILE *' arg; output to stdout.  All callers changed.
2563
2564	* configure.in: Configure HAVE_SIGACTION, RETSIGTYPE, HAVE_VPRINTF.
2565	Configure into config.h.
2566
2567	* context.c (print_context_label):
2568	Standard input's st_mtime is no longer a special case
2569	here, since `compare_files' now sets it to the current time.
2570
2571	* diff.c (usage): Sort options.
2572	(filetype): New function.
2573	(compare_files): Set stdin's st_mtime to be the current time.
2574	Leave its name "-" instead of changing it to "Standard Input";
2575	to test whether a file is stdin, we must compare its name to "-" instead
2576	of its desc to 0, since if it's closed other file descs may be 0.
2577	When comparing standard input to a file, and using a shortcut (e.g.
2578	looking at file sizes or inode numbers), take the lseek offset into
2579	account before deciding whether the files are identical.
2580	Pretend that nonexistent files have the same filetype as existing files.
2581	Rename `errorcount' to `failed', since it's boolean.
2582	In directory comparisons, if a file is neither a regular file nor a
2583	directory, just print its type and the other file's type.
2584
2585	* diff.h (Is_space, textchar): Remove.
2586	(struct msg, msg_chain, msg_chain_end): Move to util.c.
2587	(VOID): Move to system.h.
2588	(line_cmp, version_string, change_letter, print_number_range,
2589	find_change): New decls.
2590
2591	* diff.texi:
2592	whitespace -> white space.  It now stands for whatever isspace yields.
2593	Add --ignore-initial.
2594
2595	* diff3.c (VOID): Move to system.h.
2596	(version_string): Now char[].
2597	(usage): Sort options.
2598	(process_diff): Pacify `gcc -Wall' with a useless assignment.
2599	(read_diff): pid is of type pid_t, not int.  Use waitpid if available.
2600	(output_diff3): Simplify test for `\ No newline at end of file' message.
2601
2602	* dir.c (struct dirdata): Rename `files' to `names' to avoid confusion
2603	with external struct file_data `files'.
2604
2605	* io.c (line_cmp): Move declaration to diff.h.
2606	(textchar): Remove.
2607	(find_and_hash_each_line): Use locale's definition of white space
2608	instead of using one hardwired defn for -b and another for -w.
2609
2610	* normal.c (change_letter, print_number_range, find_change):
2611	Move decls to diff.h.
2612	(print_normal_hunk): Now static.
2613
2614	* sdiff.c (SEEK_SET): Move to system.h.
2615	(version_string): Now char[], not char*.
2616	(private_tempnam): Remove hardcoded limit on temporary file names.
2617	(exiterr, perror_fatal, main): When exiting because of a signal,
2618	exit with that signal's status.
2619	(lf_refill, main, skip_white, edit, interact): Check for signal.
2620	(ignore_SIGINT): Renamed from `ignore_signals'.
2621	(NUM_SIGS, initial_handler): New macros.
2622	(initial_action, signal_received, sigs_trapped): New vars.
2623	(catchsig, trapsigs): Use sigaction if possible, since this closes the
2624	windows of vulnerability that `signal' has.  Use RETSIGTYPE not void.
2625	When a signal comes in, just set a global variable; this is safer.
2626	(checksigs, untrapsig): New functions.
2627	(edit): Pacify `gcc -Wall' with a useless assignment.
2628	Respond to each empty line with help, not to every other empty line.
2629	(private_tempnam): Remove hardcoded limit on temporary file name length.
2630	Don't assume sizeof (pid_t) <= sizeof (int).
2631
2632	* system.h: (S_IXOTH, S_IXGRP, S_IXUSR,
2633	SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR,
2634	STDIN_FILENO, STDOUT_FILENO, STDERR_FILENO):
2635	New macros, if system doesn't define them.
2636	(volatile): Don't define if already defined.
2637	(PARAMS): New macro.
2638	(VOID): Move here from diff.h.
2639
2640	* util.c (struct msg, msg_chain, msg_chain_end): Moved here from diff.h.
2641	(message5): New function.
2642	(pr_pid): New var.
2643	(begin_output): Allocate `name' more precisely.
2644	Put child pid into pr_pid, so that we can wait for it later.
2645	Don't check execl's return value, since any return must be an error.
2646	(finish_output): Detect and report output errors.
2647	Use waitpid if available.  Check pr exit status.
2648	(line_cmp): Use locale's definition of white space
2649	instead of using one hardwired defn for -b and another for -w.
2650	(analyze_cmp): Avoid double negation with `! nontrivial'.
2651	Pacify `gcc -Wall' be rewriting for-loop into do-while-loop.
2652	(dir_file_pathname): New function.
2653
2654	* version.c (version_string): Now char[], not char*.

2662
2663	* Makefile.in (dist): Replace `if [ ! TEST ]; then ACTION; fi'
2664	with `[ TEST ] || ACTION || exit' so that the containing for-loop exits
2665	with proper status for `make'.
2666
2667Thu Jul  8 19:47:22 1993  David J. MacKenzie  (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

2686	* analyze.c (diff_2_files):  With -q, do not report that files differ
2687	if all their differences are ignored.
2688	(briefly_report): New function.
2689	* diff.h (ignore_some_changes): New variable.
2690	* diff.c (compare_files): Don't use the file size shortcut if
2691	ignore_some_changes is nonzero, since the file size may differ
2692	merely due to ignored changes.
2693	(main):  Set ignore_some_changes if we might ignore some changes.
2694	Remove unsystematic assignment of 0 to static vars.
2695	* io.c (read_files): New argument PRETEND_BINARY says whether to
2696	pretend the files are binary.

2724	* diff.c (main, longopts, usage): Add --horizon-lines option.
2725	* diff3.c (main, process_diff, read_diff): Invoke second diff

2812
2813	* io.c (find_and_hash_each_line): When running out of lines,
2814	double the number of allocated lines, instead of just doubling
2815	that number minus the prefix lines.  This is more likely to

2819
2820	* dir.c (dir_sort): Plug memory leak: space holding directory

2840Mon Nov  9 05:13:25 1992  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2841
2842	* diff3.c (main, usage): Add -A or --show-all.
2843	-m now defaults to -A, not -E.  Allow up to three -L options.
2844	(output_diff3_edscript, output_diff3_merge):
2845	Remove spurious differences between these two functions.
2846	Output ||||||| for -A.  Distinguish between conflicts and overlaps.

2848	(output_diff3_edscript, output_diff3_merge): Use them.
2849
2850	* io.c (find_identical_ends): shift_boundaries needs an extra
2851	identical line at the end, not at the beginning.
2852
2853	* sdiff.c (edit): execvp wants char **, not const char **.

2867
2868	* diff3.c (main, make_3way_diff, using_to_diff3_block): Don't
2869	report bogus differences (for one of -mexEX3) just because the
2870	file0-file1 diffs don't line up with the file0-file2 diffs.
2871	(This is entirely possible since we don't use diff's -n
2872	option.)  Always compare file1 to file2, so that diff3 sees
2873	those changes directly.  Typically, file2 is now the common
2874	file, not file0.
2875	(output_diff3_merge): The input file is file 0, not the common file.
2876
2877	(FC, FO): New macros; they replace FILE1, FILE0 for two-way diffs,
2878	to distinguish them from three-way diffs.
2879
2880	* diff3.c (using_to_diff3_block): Fold repeated code into loops.
2881
2882	* diff3.c (make_3way_diff, process_diff): Have the *_end
2883	variable point to the next field to be changed, not to the last
2884	object allocated; this saves an if-then-else.
2885
2886	* diff3.c (process_diff): Use D_NUMLINES instead of its definiens.
2887
2888	* diff3.c: Make fns and vars static unless they must be external.
2889
2890Wed Sep 30 09:21:59 1992  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2891
2892	* analyze.c (diff_2_files): OUTPUT_IFDEF is now robust.
2893	* diff.h (ROBUST_OUTPUT_STYLE): Likewise.
2894	(default_line_format): Remove.  All refs removed.
2895

2900
2901	* diff.c (longopts, main): --{old,new,unchanged,changed}--group-format

2903	no_diff_means_no_output if --unchanged-{line,group}-format allows it.
2904	* diff.h (enum line_class): New type.
2905	(group_format, line_format): Use it to regularize option flags.
2906	All refs changed.

2912	* diff.c (main, usage): Replace --line-prefix with the more general
2913	--{old,new,unchanged}-line-format options.
2914	* ifdef.c (format_ifdef, print_ifdef_lines): Likewise.
2915	* diff.h (line_format): Renamed from line_prefix.  All refs changed.
2916	* diff.h, ifdef.c (default_line_format): New variable.
2917	* util.c (output_1_line): New function.
2918	(print_1_line): Use it.

2922Sun Sep 27 05:38:13 1992  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2923
2924	* diff.c (main): Add -E or --line-prefix option.  Add -D'=xxx'
2925	for common lines.  Change default -D< format from copy of -D>
2926	format to to -D<%<; similarly for default -D> format.
2927	* diff.h (common_format, line_prefix): New variables.
2928	* ifdef.c (format_ifdef): New function.
2929	(print_ifdef_script, print_ifdef_hunk, print_ifdef_lines):
2930	Use it for -D'=xxx', -E.
2931
2932	* context.c (find_hunk): Glue together two non-ignorable changes that
2933	are exactly CONTEXT * 2 lines apart.  This shortens output, removes
2934	a behavioral discontinuity at CONTEXT = 0, and is more compatible
2935	with traditional diff.
2936
2937	* io.c (find_identical_ends): Slurp stdin at most once.
2938
2939	* util.c (print_line_line): line_flag is const char *.

2945	(print_ifdef_script, print_ifdef_hunk): Use it.
2946
2947Thu Sep 24 05:54:14 1992  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)

2953	a hardwired format.
2954
2955	* side.c (print_1sdiff_line): Represent incomplete lines on output.
2956	(print_sdiff_script): Likewise.  Don't print 'q' at end,
2957	since that doesn't work with incomplete lines.
2958	* sdiff.c (interact): Don't assume diff output ends with 'q' line.
2959	* diff.h (ROBUST_OUTPUT_STYLE): OUTPUT_SDIFF is now robust.
2960
2961	* sdiff.c (lf_copy, lf_snarf): Use memchr instead of index,
2962	to avoid dumping core when files contain null characters.
2963	(memchr): New function (if memchr is missing).
2964
2965	* io.c (sip): New arg SKIP_TEST to skip test for binary file.
2966	(read_files): Don't bother testing second file if first is binary.

2999
3000Sun Sep  6 07:25:49 1992  Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3001
3002	* diff.h: (struct line_def): Replace this 3-word struct with char *.
3003	This uses less memory, particularly for large files with short lines.
3004	(struct file_data): New member linbuf_base counts number of lines
3005	in common prefix that are not recorded in linbuf;
3006	this uses less memory if files are identical or differ only at end.
3007	New member buffered_lines counts possibly differing lines.
3008	New member valid_lines counts valid data.
3009	New member alloc_lines - linbuf_base replaces old linbufsize.
3010	linbuf[0] now always points at first differing line.
3011	Remove unused members ltran, suffix_lines.
3012	Add const where appropriate.
3013	(Is_space): New macro, for consistent definition of `white space'.
3014	(excluded_filename, memchr, sip, slurp): New declarations.
3015	* ed.c (print_ed_hunk): Adjust to diff.h's struct changes.
3016	* context.c (pr_context_hunk): Likewise.
3017	* ifdef.c (print_ifdef_script): Likewise.
3018	* side.c (print_sdiff_script, print_half_line): Likewise.
3019	* util.c (analyze_hunk, line_cmp, print_1_line): Likewise.
3020
3021	* analyze.c (shift_boundaries): Remove unneeded variable `end' and
3022	unnecessary comparisons of `preceding' and `other_preceding' against 0.
3023	(diff_2_files): When comparing files byte-by-byte for equality,
3024	don't slurp them all in at once; just compare them a buffer at a time.
3025	This can win big if they differ early on.
3026	Move some code to compare_files to enable this change.
3027	Use only one buffer for stdin with `diff - -'.
3028	(discard_confusing_lines, diff_2_files): Coalesce malloc/free calls.
3029	(build_script): Remove obsolete OUTPUT_RCS code.
3030
3031	* diff.c (add_exclude, add_exclude_file, excluded_filename): New fns.
3032	(main): Use them for the new --exclude and --exclude-from options.
3033	(compare_files): Don't open a file unless it must be read.
3034	Treat `diff file file' and `diff file dir' similarly.
3035	Move some code here from diff_2_files to enable this.
3036	Simplify file vs dir warning.
3037
3038	* dir.c (dir_sort): Support new --exclude* options.
3039
3040	* io.c (struct equivclass): Put hash code and line length here instead
3041	of struct line_def, so that they can be shared.
3042	(find_and_hash_each_line): Compute equivalence class as we go,
3043	instead of doing it in a separate pass; this thrashes memory less.
3044	Make buckets realloc-able, since we can't preallocate them.
3045	Record one more line start than there are lines, so that we can compute
3046	any line's length by subtracting its start from the next line's,
3047	instead of storing the length explicitly.  This saves memory.
3048	Move prefix-handling code to find_identical_ends;
3049	this wins with large prefixes.
3050	Use Is_space, not is_space, for consistent treatment of white space.
3051	(prepare_text_end): New function.
3052	(find_identical_ends): Move slurping here, so it's only done when
3053	needed.  Work even if the buffers are the same (because of `diff - -').
3054	Compare prefixes a word at a time for speed.
3055	(find_equiv_class): Delete; now done by find_and_hash_each_line.
3056	(read_files): Don't slurp unless needed.
3057	find_equiv_class's work is now folded into find_and_hash_each_line.
3058	Don't copy stdin buffer if `diff - -'.
3059	Check for running out of primes.
3060	(sip, slurp): Split first part of `slurp' into another function `sip'.
3061	`sip' sets things up and perhaps reads the first ST_BLKSIZE buffer to
3062	see whether the file is binary; `slurp' now just finishes the job.
3063	This lets diff_2_files compare binary files lazily.
3064	Allocate a one-word sentinel to allow word-at-a-time prefix comparison.
3065	Count prefix lines only if needed, only count the first file's prefix.
3066	Don't bother to count suffix lines; it's never needed.
3067	Set up linbuf[0] to point at first differing line.
3068	(binary_file_p): Change test for binary files:
3069	if it has a null byte in its first buffer, it's binary.
3070	(primes): Add more primes.
3071
3072	* util.c (line_cmp): Use bcmp for speed.
3073	Use Is_space, not is_space, for consistent treatment of white space.
3074	(translate_line_number): Internal line numbers now count from 0
3075	starting after the prefix.
3076	(memchr): New function (if memchr is missing).
3077
3078	* Makefile.in: Document HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE.  Link with wildmat.o.
3079	* system.h (STAT_BLOCKSIZE): New macro based on HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE.
3080	* configure.in: Add AC_ST_BLKSIZE.
3081	* wildmat.c: New file.

3086
3087Thu Sep  3 15:28:59 1992  David J. MacKenzie  (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3088
3089	* diff.h: Don't declare free, index, rindex.
3090
3091Tue Aug 11 22:18:06 1992  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygnus.com)
3092
3093	* io.c (binary_file_p):  Use heuristic to avoid declaring info
3094	files as binary files.  Allow about 1.5% non-printing
3095	characters (in info's case, ^_).
3096
3097Tue Jul  7 01:09:26 1992  David J. MacKenzie  (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3098
3099	* diff.h: Replace function_regexp and ignore_regexp with lists
3100	of compiled regexps.
3101	* analyze.c, context.c, util.c: Test whether the lists, not
3102	the old variables, are empty.
3103	* util.c (analyze_hunk), context.c (find_function): Compare
3104	lines with the lists of regexps.
3105	* diff.c (add_regexp): New function.
3106	(main): Use it.

3203	Clean up temporary file and kill subsidiary diff if interrupted.
3204	Ensure subsidiary diff doesn't ignore SIGPIPE.
3205	Don't get confused while waiting for two subprocesses.

3242
3243	* diff.h, diff3.c: Rearrange ifdefs to use POSIX,

3783Wed Feb 15 06:19:14 1989  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
3784
3785	* io.c (find_identical_ends): Delete the variable `bytes'.
3786
3787Sun Feb 12 11:50:36 1989  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
3788
3789	* io.c (slurp): ->bufsize is nominal amount we have room for;
3790	add room for sentinel when calling xmalloc or xrealloc.
3791
3792	* io.c (find_identical_ends): Do need overrun check in finding suffix.
3793
3794Fri Feb 10 01:28:15 1989  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
3795
3796	* diff.c (main): -C now takes arg to specify context length.
3797	Now -p to show C function name--Damned IEEE!
3798	Fatal error if context length spec'd twice.
3799
3800	* ed.c (print_ed_hunk): Now special treatment only for lines containing
3801	precisely a dot and nothing else.  Output `..', end the insert,
3802	substitute that one line, then resume the insert if nec.
3803
3804	* io.c (find_and_hash_lines): When backing up over starting context,
3805	don't move past buffer-beg.
3806
3807	* io.c (find_identical_ends): Use sentinels to make the loops faster.
3808	If files are identical, skip the 2nd loop and return quickly.
3809	(slurp): Leave 1 char extra space after each buffer.
3810
3811	* analyze.c (diff_2_files): Mention difference in final newlines.
3812
3813Wed Jan 25 22:44:44 1989  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
3814
3815	* dir.c (diff_dirs): Use * when calling fcn ptr variable.
3816
3817Sat Dec 17 14:12:06 1988  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
3818
3819	* Makefile: New vars INSTALL and LIBS used in some rules;
3820	provide default defns plus commented-put defns for sysV.
3821
3822Thu Nov 17 16:42:53 1988  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
3823
3824	* dir.c (dir_sort): Open-trouble not fatal; just say # files is -1.
3825	(diff_dirs): If dir_sort does that, give up and return 2.
3826
3827	* diff.c (compare_files): Don't open directories.
3828	Don't close them specially either.
3829	Cross-propagate inf[i].dir_p sooner.
3830
3831Sun Nov 13 11:19:36 1988  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
3832
3833	* diff.h: Declare index, rindex.
3834
3835	* diff.c (compare_files): If comparing foodir with b/f,
3836	use foodir/f, not foodir/b/f.
3837
3838	* diff.c (compare_files): Don't print "are identical" msg for 2 dirs.
3839	Status now 1 if one file is a dir and the other isn't, etc.
3840
3841Thu Nov  3 16:30:24 1988  Randall Smith  (randy at gluteus.ai.mit.edu)
3842
3843	* Makefile: Added a define for diff3 to define DIFF_PROGRAM.
3844
3845	* util.c: Added hack to make sure that perror was not called with
3846	a null pointer.
3847
3848	* diff.c: Changed S_IFDIR to S_IFMT in masking type of file bits
3849	out.
3850
3851	* diff3.c: Included USG compatibility defines.
3852
3853	* diff.h: Moved sys/file.h into #else USG section (not needed or
3854	wanted on System V).
3855
3856	* ed.c, analyze.c, context.c: Shortened names to 12 characters for
3857	the sake of System V (too simple not to do).
