18 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add wcwidth.
19 * src/side.c: Include <wchar.h>.
20 (print_half_line): Compute number of bytes and print widths of
21 multibyte characters. Inspired by an alternative solution from

43 2007-08-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
45 Break out diffseq.h into a separate file, so that gettext can use
46 this code. Idea and code from Bruno Haible.

57 2007-08-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
59 * src/diff.c (compare_files): Use last_component rather than base_name,
60 adjusting to gnulib API change. This avoids a memory leak.
61 * src/sdiff.c (expand_name): Likewise.
62 * src/util.c (dir_file_pathname): Likewise.
64 * doc/diff.texi (Copying This Manual): Adjust to new fdl.texi layout.
66 2007-07-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
68 * doc/diff.texi (White Space): Note that newline always ends a line,
69 so -w doesn't ignore newline-related changes. Problem reported by
73 * AUTHORS: Update from GPLv2 to GPLv3.
74 * Makefile.am: Likewise.
77 * README-hacking: Likewise.

111 "GNU General Public License". Reported by Erich Guenther.
112 * src/side.c: Likewise.
114 2007-06-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
116 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add inttypes.
117 * src/context.c (print_context_label): Don't assume that time_t
118 fits in long int, since it doesn't in FreeBSD/arm. Problem
119 reported by Xin Li in
120 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2007-06/msg00091.html>.
122 2007-06-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

127 (edit): Support them.
129 2007-04-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
131 * doc/diff.texi (Detailed diff3 Normal): "range is a singleton" ->
132 "there is only one line", for clarity. Suggested by Jerry Peek.
134 2007-04-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
136 * TODO: Mention possible sdiff improvement.
138 * bootstrap: Sync from gnulib.
139 * src/cmp.c: Don't include exit.h; no longer needed.
140 * src/diff.c: Likewise.
141 * src/sdiff.c: Likewise.
142 * src/dir.c: Don't include strcase.h; no longer needed.
143 * README-alpha: Remove, replacing with:
144 * README-hacking: New file, taken from coreutils with some changes.
145 The rename is required by the change to 'bootstrap'.

149 * src/analyze.c (build_reverse_script): Fix typo in comment.
150 Problem and fix reported by Daniel Hipschman.
152 2006-11-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
154 Don't assume SIGPIPE exists, and that sigblock and sigsetmask
155 exist if sigprocmask does not. Problem reported by Paul Edwards
157 * configure.ac (sigblock): Check whether this function is
158 available, if sigprocmask is not.
159 * src/sdiff.c (sigs): Omit SIGPIPE if it's not defined.
160 Put SIGINT last; all uses changed.

167 * src/sdiff.c (sigprocmask) [! HAVE_SIGPROCMASK]: Cast 2nd arg to
168 sigset_t *, since it might be a literal 0. Problem reported by
169 Paul Edwards for MVS 3.8.
171 2006-09-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
173 * NEWS: diff -u no longer outputs trailing white space unless the
174 input data has it. Suggested by Jim Meyering.
175 * doc/diff.texi (Detailed Unified): Document this.
176 * src/context.c (pr_unidiff_hunk): Implement this.
178 Modernize bootstrap procedure to match current gnulib.

181 * bootstrap.conf: New file.
182 (gnulib_modules): Add config-h, dup2, extensions, fcntl, fdl,
184 * configure.ac: Invoke gl_EARLY and gl_INIT rather than
185 GNULIB_AUTOCONF_SNIPPET.
186 (AC_CONFIG_HEADER): Rename config.h to lib/config.h.
187 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS_ONCE): Don't check for fcntl.h, locale.h,
188 sys/file.h, unistd.h. We now use the fcntl and unistd modules,
189 and locale.h can be assumed for any C89 compiler.
190 (DIFFUTILS_PREREQUISITES): Remove. No longer needed now that
191 we use the stdint module.
192 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Remove dup2, which is no longer needed
193 now that we use the dup2 module.
194 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Use need-formatstring-macros, and ...
195 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): specify version 0.15 instead of 0.14.5,
196 to be consistent with coreutils.
197 * lib/Makefile.am (noinst_LIBRARIES):
198 (lib_SOURCES, libdiffutils_a_LIBADD):
199 (libdiffutils_a_DEPENDENCIES, BUILT_SOURCES, EXTRA_DIST):
200 (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Remove; now computed automatically.
201 (noinst_HEADERS, libdiffutils_a_SOURCES): Just append
202 our special files now.
203 * lib/cmpbuf.c: Include config.h unconditionally, since we
204 no longer define HAVE_CONFIG_H.
205 * lib/prepargs.c: Likewise.
206 * src/Makefile.am (LDADD): Use $(LIBINTL), not @LIBINTL@.
207 (diff_LDADD): Use $(LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME), not @LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME@.
208 * src/dir.c (dir_read): Use _D_EXACT_NAMLEN, not NAMELEN.
209 * src/system.h (volatile): Remove, since we assume C89 or better.
210 Include stat-macros.h.
211 (S_IRWXU, S_IRWXG, S_IRWXO, S_IRUSR, S_IWUSR):
212 Remove, since we now use stat-macros.h.
213 (SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR): Remove, since we assume C89 or better.
214 Include unistd.h unconditionally, since we use unistd.
215 Likewise for fcntl.h.
216 (dup2): Remove, since we now use dup2.
217 (O_RDONLY, O_RWDR, O_BINARY): Remove, since we now use
219 Include dirent.h unconditionally.
220 (NAMLEN): Remove, replacing with....
221 (_D_EXACT_NAMLEN): New macro.
222 Include inttypes.h unconditionally.
223 (PTRDIFF_MAX, SIZE_MAX, UINTMAX_MAX, strtoumax): Remove, since
225 Include locale.h unconditionally.
226 (setlocale): Remove, since we now assume locale.h.
228 2006-09-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
230 * src/context.c (print_context_function): Do not print
231 trailing white space in a context header.
233 2006-05-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
235 * src/cmp.c (cmp): The previous fix wasn't quite right either, as
236 it mishandled 'cmp A B >/dev/null' when A is shorter than B and
237 differs before A's end-of-file, by outputting a bogus EOF message.
238 Also, it was inefficient if A and B were large.
240 2006-05-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> (tiny change)
242 Fix bug introduced in 2006-03-09 change:
243 cmp always exits successfully, when stdout is redirected to /dev/null.
244 * src/cmp.c (cmp): When there's a difference, arrange to return nonzero
245 also when comparison_type is the new (from 2006-03-09) type_no_stdout.
247 2006-05-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
249 * src/context.c (pr_context_hunk, pr_unidiff_hunk):
250 Prefer fputs or fputc to fprintf, since it's a tad more efficient
251 with unlocked-IO on glibc. Long ago we avoided fputs to
252 work around an ancient SunOS bug, but that's no longer relevant.
253 * src/diff3.c (output_diff3, dotlines, undotlines):
254 (output_diff3_edscript, output_diff3_merge): Likewise.
255 This also avoids a gcc -Wformat-security warning reported
257 * src/ed.c (print_ed_hunk, print_forward_ed_hunk, print_rcs_hunk):
259 * src/normal.c (print_normal_hunk): Likewise.
261 2006-05-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
263 * src/io.c (find_identical_ends): Fix huge performance bug that I
264 introduced in the 2001-11-25 change: the code to remove the
265 identical suffix also looked at the trailing sentinel, which meant
266 the common suffix length was always incorrectly calculated to be
267 zero. Problem and fix reported by Daniel Hipschman. Instead of
268 his fix, revert to the pre-2001 code.
270 * doc/diff.texi: Switch from GFDL 1.1 to 1.2.
272 2006-03-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
274 * src/system.h (PARAMS, PROTOTYPES): Remove; no longer needed.
275 (IF_LINT): New macro, to pacify GCC.
276 * src/analyze.c (diag, compareseq): Use IF_LINT.
277 * src/cmp.c (cmp): Likewise.
278 * src/diff3.c (process_diff): Likewise. Also, prefer NULL to 0.
279 * src/ifdef.c (do_printf_spec, scan_char_literal): Likewise.
280 * src/sdiff.c (edit): Likewise.
282 2006-03-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
284 * src/cmp.c (type_no_stdout): New constant.
285 (main): Use it to avoid bug when the "EOF on foo" message is
286 generated and stdout is /dev/null.
287 Problem reported by Vincent Lefevre (Debian bug 356083).
289 2006-01-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

293 * AUTHORS: Simplify list by removing legalisms.
294 * THANKS: Add Larry Wall, who contributed to manual. Update email

299 gettime, sh-quote, stat-time, verify, version-etc-fsf modules.
300 Remove posixver module. Retrieve doc/fdl.texi from gnulib.
301 Handle gettext.m4 like glibc21.m4. Don't remove po/en.po.
302 * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Bump to 2.59.
303 (AC_INIT): Bump version to 2.8.7-cvs.
304 (AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Change from config to build-aux.
305 Prefer AC_CHECK_HEADERS_ONCE to AC_CHECK_HEADERS
306 and AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE to AC_CHECK_FUNCS.
307 Remove jm_AC_TYPE_INTMAX_T, jm_AC_TYPE_UINTMAX_T,
308 AC_STRUCT_ST_MTIM_NSEC.
309 (DIFFUTILS_PREREQUISITES): New macro. Call it.
310 (REGEX_MALLOC): Remove; no longer needed.
311 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Now 0.14.15.
312 (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Call.
313 (LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME): Remove; bootstrap now does that.
314 (AC_FUNC_SETMODE_DOS): Remove.
315 (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove m4/Makefile.
316 * doc/diff.texi: Use @- at end of lines that should end in white space,
317 so that Emacs doesn't remove the white space.
318 (diff Options): "diff -NUM" is a pure extension to POSIX, so support
320 * lib/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Remove quotesys.h.
321 (lib_SOURCES): Remove quotesys.c.
322 (DISTCLEANFILES): Remove.
323 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove setmode.h, waitpid.c.

328 * src/cmp.c: Don't include <setmode.h>.
329 (specify_ignore_initial): Reword to avoid gcc -W warnings.

339 All uses of quotesys replaced by sh-quote.
340 (main, compare_files):
341 Use freopen instead of setmode, since freopen is in POSIX.

371 (function_regexp_list, ignore_regexp_list): No longer static; now
373 (main): Set opt.function_regexp, opt.ignore_regexp if using regexps;
374 all other code now tests these pointers rather than inspecting fastmap
376 New local OPT to hold former statics; initialize it.
377 (init_regexp_list): New function, used by main.
378 (summarize_regexp_list): Now returns struct re_pattern_buffer *, and

392 last line is a single-dot line.
394 2004-06-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

398 Include setmode.h first, to catch interface errors.
399 Assume HAVE_SETMODE_DOS is defined.
401 * lib/setmode.h: Include stdbool.h.
403 2004-04-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

410 * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Add.

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

439 jm_PREREQ_QUOTEARG, jm_PREREQ_REGEX, AC_FUNC_FNMATCH_GNU, jm_AC_DOS):

460 Detailed if-then-else, diff3 Hunks, Detailed diff3 Normal):
461 Place at end of menu.
462 (Detailed Unified): Mention that fractional timestamps are

486 Otherwise define a dummy static char, as C89 requires
487 that we define something.
488 * lib/setmode.h (set_binary_mode): Return true, not 1.
490 * src/analyze.c, src/context.c, src/diff.c, src/io.c, src/util.c:

493 * src/cmp.c: Sort includes. Include <exit.h>, <unlocked-io.h>.
494 (specify_comparison_type): Don't report an error if the comparison
495 type has already been specified the same way as this one.

525 * src/diff.h: Include regex.h, unlocked-io.h.
526 (struct file_data.changed): Now char *, not bool *, to save

538 * src/dir.c: Include <strcase.h>.
539 (failed_locale_specific_sorting): Renamed from failed_strcoll.
541 (compare_names): Don't invoke strcasecmp first thing when

546 (next_line0, next_line1): New vars.
547 (print_ifdef_script, print_ifdef_hunk):
548 Use them to fix line-number computation bug.
550 * src/io.c (find_and_hash_each_line): Don't convert char *
551 to unsigned char *; just leave pointers as char *. This
552 lessens the number of potentially-dangerous casts.

567 memcmp, memcpy): Remove decl; no longer needed.

572 if the C compiler doesn't. All boolean uses of 0 and 1 now
573 changed to false and true.
574 (lin_is_printable_as_long_int): Renamed from lin_is_printable_as_long.
576 * src/util.c (begin_output): Fix bug: 0 wasn't cast to char * arg,
577 which led to undefined behavior on 64-bit hosts.
578 Use more-standard test for exit status 126 versus 127.
579 (finish_output): Likewise.
580 (analyze_hunk): Do not cast bool to int.

593 (diag, diff_2_files):
594 Use 'true' and 'false' instead of '1' and '0', when appropriate.
595 (compareseq): Use lin const * local variables instead of lin *.
596 Don't bother checking diag's return value.
597 (shift_boundaries, build_reverse_script, build_script, diff_2_files):
598 Use char arrays, not bool arrays, since
599 sizeof (bool) might be greater than 1.
601 2004-02-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
603 * m4/setmode.m4 (AC_FUNC_SETMODE_DOS): AC_LIBOBJ(setmode) if

614 2002-10-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
616 * src/Makefile.am (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Add paths.ht.
617 (paths.h): Send output to paths.ht first, and then rename to
618 paths.h at the end. This avoids problems if the disk is full.
619 It also works around what appears to be a bug with GNU make -j
620 (3.79.1); see <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8934>.

1396 (longopts, main): Use them.
1397 (longopts, main, option_help_msgid): New option --diff-option=PROGRAM.

1614 with what we've seen.

2422 * sdiff.c (version_string): Fix decl typo: `const' was missing.
2423 (trapsigs): Ignore sigaction failure, to be compatible with `signal'.
2425 * util.c (struct msg, message5, print_message_queue):
2426 Allocate just one block of memory to save a message.
2428 Wed Nov 9 17:42:44 1994 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
2430 * sdiff.c (trapsigs): Don't check signal return value, since it's

2484 * system.h (malloc, realloc): Remove unused declarations.
2485 * diff3.c, sdiff.c, util.c (xmalloc, xrealloc): Remove.
2486 * sdiff.c (diffarg): Take advantage of cleaner xrealloc semantics.

2490 * Makefile.in (common_o): New variable.
2491 Link error.o and xmalloc.o into all programs.
2492 (check): Depend on $(PROGRAMS).
2494 * diff.h (error): Change to GNU library standard. All callers changed.
2495 * diff3.c (main): Use strerror (EISDIR) instead of "Is a directory".
2496 (fatal, perror_with_exit): Use `error'.
2497 * util.c (perror_with_name, fatal): Use GNU `error'.
2500 Wed Oct 12 17:04:40 1994 David J. MacKenzie (djm@duality.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
2502 * cmp.c (main): Set xmalloc_exit_failure.
2504 Sat Oct 1 05:24:19 1994 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
2506 * Version 2.7 released.
2508 * configure.in (AC_HEADER_SYS_WAIT): Add.
2509 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Remove sys/wait.h.
2510 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Add tmpnam.
2511 * system.h (<sys/wait.h>, WEXITSTATUS): Use simpler scheme
2512 now that HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H is not set on hosts
2513 that are incompatible with Posix applications.
2515 * util.c (dir_file_pathname): Use filename_lastdirchar not strrchr.
2516 * sdiff.c (expand_name): Likewise.
2517 (private_tempnam): Use tmpnam if HAVE_TMPNAM; this simplifies porting.
2518 (exists, letters): Omit if HAVE_TMPNAM.
2520 * diff3.c (read_diff): If STAT_BLOCKSIZE yields zero,
2521 adjust it to a more reasonable value.
2523 Sat Sep 24 20:36:40 1994 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
2525 * sdiff.c (exists, private_tempname): Adopt latest GNU libc algorithm.

2530 * configure.in (AC_ARG_PROGRAM): Added.
2531 (AC_OUTPUT): Add [date > stamp-h].
2533 * Makefile.in (DEFAULT_EDITOR_PROGRAM, DIFF_PROGRAM, LIBOBJS,
2534 NULL_DEVICE, PR_PROGRAM, PROGRAMS): New variables.
2535 (check, stamp-h.in, cmp.o, util.o): New targets.
2536 (edit_program_name): New variable; replaces old binprefix method.
2537 (install, uninstall): Use it.
2538 (binprefix): Removed.
2539 (distfiles): Add stamp-h.in.
2540 (clean): Clean stamp-h.
2541 (config.hin, config.h): Use time stamp files.
2542 (cmp_o): Add $(LIBOBJS).
2543 (install): Install info files from srcdir if they're not in `.'.
2545 * cmp.c, io.c (word): Don't define if already defined.
2547 * comp.c (main): Use setmode, not open(..., O_BINARY); this gets stdin.
2548 Use NULL_DEVICE instead of "/dev/null".
2549 (cmp): Use %lu instead of %ld when it is more likely to be right.
2551 * diff.h (PR_FILE_NAME): Rename to PR_PROGRAM and move to Makefile.in,
2554 * diff3.c (main): Give proper diagnostic if too many labels were given.
2555 (read_diff): Use SYSTEM_QUOTE_ARG.
2557 * system.h: <string.h>: Include if HAVE_STRING_H, too.
2558 <ctype.h>: Include here. All includers changed.

2560 work around common <ctype.h> problems.
2562 (SYSTEM_QUOTE_ARG): New macros.

2571 * sdiff.c (TMPDIR_ENV): New macro.
2572 (DEFAULT_EDITOR_PROGRAM): Renamed from DEFAULT_EDITOR for consistency.
2573 (expand_name): Change `isdir' to `is_dir' to avoid theoretical ctype
2574 namespace contamination.
2575 (main): Use SYSTEM_QUOTE_ARG.
2576 (private_tempnam): Don't access "/tmp" directly; use PVT_tmpdir.
2578 Tue Sep 13 18:46:43 1994 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
2580 * configure.in (AC_FUNC_MEMCHR): Remove. Autoconf didn't adopt this,
2581 since we need not worry about an old experimental library
2582 where memchr didn't work.
2583 (AC_FUNC_MEMCMP): Not needed, since we only test for equality.
2584 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Add test for memchr.
2585 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Check for memchr, not memcpy, since it'll be cached.
2586 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Add string.h; regex.c uses on some old hosts.
2588 * system.h (memcmp): Define in terms of bcmp.
2589 Use HAVE_MEMCHR to test for all mem* routines.
2591 * Makefile.in (srcs): Remove memcmp.c.
2592 We use bcmp if memcmp doesn't work, since we only test for equality.
2594 Mon Sep 12 15:52:22 1994 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
2596 * configure.in (AC_CONFIG_HEADER): Rename config.h.in to config.hin.
2597 (AC_ISC_POSIX, AC_MINIX): Go back to these old names for Autoconf 2.
2598 (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Remove now-redundant check for <string.h>.
2599 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Check for strchr.
2600 (AC_FUNC_MEMCHR, AC_FUNC_MEMCMP, AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Use special-purpose
2601 macros when suitable.
2602 * memcmp.c: New file.

2604 Default to autoconf-specified strings.
2605 (COMPILE): Use the defaults.
2606 (srcs): Add memcmp.c.
2607 (distfiles): Rename config.h.in->config.hin, install.sh->install-sh.
2608 (Makefile, config.h, config.hin, config.status): Rework for
2609 compatibility with Autoconf 2.
2610 * io.c (binary_file_p): Assume non-broken memchr.
2611 * memchr.c: Assume compiler understands void *; otherwise
2612 we don't match GCC's internal declaration of memchr.
2613 * system.h: Use more modern autoconf approach to standard C headers.
2614 * version.c: Include <config.h>, not "config.h".
2616 * diff.c, diff.h (ignore_some_line_changes):
2617 New variable; replaces `length_varies'.
2618 (line_end_char): Replace with '\n'; it wasn't being used consistently.
2620 * io.c (find_and_hash_each_line): Fix inconsistencies with -b -w -i and
2621 incomplete lines. Put incomplete lines into their own bucket.
2622 This means line_cmp no longer needs line length arguments,
2623 and equivalence classes' line lengths no longer need to include \n.
2624 Invoke line_cmp only if ignore_some_line_changes.
2625 (prepare_text_end): -B no longer ignores missing newlines.
2626 (read_files): Allocate another bucket for incomplete lines.
2628 * util.c (line_cmp): Now takes just two arguments. No longer
2629 optimizes for common case of exact equality; the caller does that
2630 optimization now. The caller is changed accordingly.
2631 Optimize for the common case of mostly equality.
2632 Use isupper+tolower instead of islower+toupper, for consistency.
2634 * waitpid.c (waitpid): Fix typo with internal scoping.
2636 Thu Sep 8 08:23:15 1994 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
2638 * configure.in: Revamp for Autoconf 2.

2643 * system.h: Use Autoconf 2 style HAVE_DIRENT_H etc. macros for dirs.
2644 * dir.c (dir_sort): Prefer NAMLEN (p) to strlen (p->d_name).
2645 Change VOID_CLOSEDIR to CLOSEDIR_VOID for Autoconf 2.
2646 * sdiff.c, util.c (memchr, waitpid): Remove; use new substitutes.
2647 * diff3.c (read_diff): Use new waitpid substitute.
2649 * cmp.c, diff.c, diff3.c, sdiff.c (check_stdout, try_help): New fns.
2650 (usage): Just print more detailed usage message; let caller exit.
2651 * diff.c (option_help): New variable.
2652 (filetype): Add Posix.1b file types.
2654 Fri Sep 2 16:01:49 1994 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
2656 * configure.in: Switch to new autoconf names. Add sys/file.h test.
2657 * Makefile.in (distclean): Clean config.cache, config.log
2658 (used by new autoconf).
2660 * diff.c, diff3.c, (main), sdiff.c (trapsigs): If we'll have children,
2661 make sure SIGCHLD isn't ignored.
2663 * diff3.c (DIFF_CHUNK_SIZE): Removed. Get size from STAT_BLOCKSIZE.
2664 (INT_STRLEN_BOUND): New macro.
2666 * ifdef.c (format_group, groups_letter_value):
2667 Use * instead of [] in prototypes.

2670 (S_IXGRP, S_IXOTH, S_IXUSR): Remove unused macros.
2672 * util.c (begin_output): Check fdopen result.
2674 The following changes simplify porting to non-Posix environments.
2675 * cmp.c, diff.c, diff3.c, sdiff.c, (main): Call initialize_main first.
2676 * diff.c (binary_I_O): New variable for --binary option.
2677 (main, usage, compare_files): Support --binary option.
2678 (compare_files): Use filename_lastdirchar to find last
2679 directory char in a file name.
2680 * cmp.c (main), diff.c (compare_files), dir.c (compare_names,
2681 diff_dirs): Use filename_cmp to compare file names.
2682 Use same_file to determine whether two files are the same.
2683 * context.c (print_context_label): Check whether ctime yields 0.
2684 * diff3.c (read_diff), sdiff.c (cleanup, main, waitpid),
2685 util.c (begin_output): Use popen+pclose if !HAVE_FORK.
2686 * io.c (sip): If HAVE_SETMODE, test for binary files in O_BINARY mode.
2687 * sdiff.c (ck_fdopen): Function removed.
2688 (edit): Use system if !HAVE_FORK.
2689 (execdiff): Now assumes caller has pushed all args, plus trailing 0.
2690 All callers changed.
2691 (private_tempnam): Try TMP if TMPDIR isn't defined.
2692 Fit temporary filenames into 8.3 limit.
2693 * system.h (STAT_BLOCKSIZE): Don't define if already defined.
2694 (min, max): Undef if already defined.
2695 (filename_cmp, filename_lastdirchar, HAVE_FORK, HAVE_SETMODE,
2696 initialize_main, O_BINARY, same_file): New macros.
2698 Fri Jun 17 11:23:53 1994 David J. MacKenzie (djm@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
2700 * Makefile.in (info, dvi, diff.dvi): New targets.
2701 (clean): Remove TeX output files.
2703 Fri Jun 17 05:37:52 1994 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2705 * cmp.c, io.c (word): Change from typedef to #define, to avoid
2706 collision with Unicos 8.0 <sys/types.h>, which also typedefs `word'.
2708 Thu Apr 15 00:53:01 1994 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2710 * diff3.c (scan_diff_line), util.c (print_number_range): Don't
2711 rely on promotion to make the old-style parameter type agree
2712 with the prototype parameter type; this doesn't work on
2713 Apollos running bsd4.3.
2715 Mon Jan 3 02:05:51 1994 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2717 * Makefile.in (LDFLAGS): Remove -g. Change all link commands
2718 to use both $(CFLAGS) and $(LDFLAGS).
2720 Mon Dec 13 12:23:27 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2722 * system.h: Don't assume dirent.h exists just because
2723 _POSIX_VERSION is defined.

2731 * Makefile.in (distclean): Remove config.h.
2733 Wed Nov 10 00:28:27 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2735 * Version 2.6 released.
2737 * analyze.c (too_expensive): New variable, for heuristic to
2738 limit the worst-case cost to O(N**1.5 log N) at the price of
2739 producing suboptimal output for large inputs with many differences.
2740 (diff_2_files): Initialize it.
2741 (struct partition): New type.
2742 (SNAKE_LIMIT): New macro; merely documents already-used number 20.

2751 (usage): Send usage to stdout, not stderr.
2752 (compare_files): Initialize `inf' properly.
2754 * io.c (word): Change to `int'; it makes a big difference on x86.
2755 (sip, slurp): Put off allocating room to hold the whole file until we
2756 have to read the whole file. This wins if the file turns out
2759 * util.c (xmalloc, xrealloc): "virtual memory" -> "memory"
2760 (primes): Omit large primes if INT_MAX is small.
2762 * sdiff.c (usage): Send usage to stdout, not stderr.
2763 (long_options, main, usage): Add `--help'.
2764 (main): Send version number to stdout, not stderr. Exit afterwards.

2767 (long_options, main, usage): Add `--help'.
2768 (read_diff): Detect integer overflow in buffer size calculations.
2770 * cmp.c (word): New type. All uses of `long' for
2771 word-at-a-time comparisons changed to `word'.

2778 Mon Sep 27 07:20:24 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2780 * diff.c (add_exclude_file): Cast memchr to (char *)
2781 to suppress bogus warnings on some nonstandard hosts.
2783 * Makefile.in (cmp): Add version.o.
2785 * analyze.c (diff_2_files): Work around memcmp bug with size=0.
2787 * cmp.c (main, usage, version_string): Add --version option.
2789 * system.h (malloc, realloc): Declare only if !HAVE_STDLIB_H.

2819 * sdiff.c (lf_copy, lf_skip, lf_snarf): Likewise.
2821 * diff3.c, sdiff.c, util.c (xmalloc, xrealloc): Cast malloc, realloc
2822 to (VOID *) to suppress bogus warnings on some nonstandard hosts.
2824 * sdiff.c, util.c (memchr): Make first arg char const *
2827 * system.h (malloc, realloc): Declare only if !HAVE_STDLIB_H.
2828 (memchr): Declare only if !HAVE_MEMCHR. These changes are
2829 needed to keep some nonstandard hosts happy.
2831 * xmalloc.c: Include <sys/types.h> always; some nonstandard hosts
2832 need it for size_t even if STDC_HEADERS.
2834 Sat Sep 18 01:33:07 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2836 * configure.in (AC_STAT_MACROS_BROKEN): Add.

2849 (xmalloc, xrealloc): Remove needless casts.
2851 * system.h (volatile, const):
2852 Define these before including any system headers,
2853 so that they're used consistently in all system includes.

2855 <stdlib.h>s don't declare them.
2856 (memchr): Likewise for <string.h>.
2858 * cmp.c, diff3.c, diff.h, sdiff.c: Include "system.h" first.

2869 * ifdef.c (scan_char_literal): New function, for new %c'x' and
2870 %c'\ooo' format specs.
2871 (format_group, print_ifdef_lines): Use it. Remove %0 format spec.
2873 * cmp.c (cmp): Don't try to read past end of file; this doesn't
2876 * system.h, version.c: #include <config.h>, not "config.h", to allow
2877 configuring in a separate directory when the source directory has
2878 already been configured.
2879 * Makefile.in (COMPILE): New defn, with proper -I options so that
2880 `#include <config.h>' works.
2881 (.c.o, diff3.o, sdiff.o): Use it.
2883 Mon Sep 13 06:45:43 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2885 * diff.c (main, longopts): Add --line-format=FORMAT option.
2886 (specify_format): Args no longer const pointers. All callers changed.
2888 * ifdef.c: Add support for %?c, %(A=B?T:E), PRINTF_SPECn formats.
2889 (struct group): New struct.
2890 (print_ifdef_lines): Use it to simplify argument passing.
2891 Remove the convention that last arg -1 signifies that the lines
2892 from file 2 are the same as the lines from file 1; this
2893 convention no longer works, now that line numbers might be
2894 printed out, since the line numbers may differ.
2895 Add first FILE * argument to output to. All callers changed.
2896 Use a faster test for the single-fwrite optimization.
2897 (format_group, scan_printf_spec, groups_letter_value): New functions.
2899 * diff.h (group_format, line_format): No longer const pointers.
2900 (format_ifdef): 1st arg is no longer const pointer.

2903 * system.h <limits.h>, <stdlib.h>, <string.h>:
2904 Include only if HAVE_LIMITS_H etc.
2906 * system.h (memcmp, memcpy, strchr, strrchr, struct dirent): Prefer
2907 these standard names to the traditional names (bcmp, bcpy, index,
2908 rindex, struct direct). All callers changed.
2910 * system.h (PARAMS, VOID):
2911 Define earlier so that malloc decl can use VOID.
2912 (STAT_BLOCKSIZE): Simplify ersatz defn; just use 8K.
2914 Fri Sep 3 00:21:02 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2916 * diff.c (compare_files): Two files with the same name must be
2917 the same file; avoid a needless `stat' in that case.
2919 Fri Aug 27 06:59:03 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
2921 * Pervasive changes for portability to 64-bit hosts:
2922 Add prototypes to function declarations.
2923 Use size_t, not int, when needed.
2925 * Other pervasive changes:
2926 Use `const' more often.
2927 Use STD{IN,OUT,ERR}_FILENO instead of [012].
2928 Use 0, not NULL, for portability to broken hosts.
2930 * Makefile.in: (srcs, objs, distfiles, cmp): New files cmpbuf.[ch].
2931 (distfiles): New files config.h.in, mkinstalldirs.
2932 (.c.o): Add -DHAVE_CONFIG_H.
2934 * analyze.c: (diag): Pacify `gcc -Wall' with a useless assignment.
2935 (diff_2_files): Use l.c.m., not max, of files' buffer sizes.
2937 * cmp.c: Make globals static when possible.
2939 (file): Now a 2-element array; replaces `file1' and `file2'.
2940 (file_desc, buffer): Likewise, for file[12]_desc and buf[12].
2941 (main): Likewise, for stat_buf[12]. Index these variables with `i'.
2943 (ignore_initial): New var.
2944 (long_options): Now const. Add `--ignore-initial'.
2945 (usage): Sort options and add `--ignore-initial'.
2946 (main, cmp): Add `--ignore-initial' support.
2948 (main): `cmp - -' now succeeds.
2949 When comparing standard input to a file, and using a shortcut (e.g.
2950 looking at file sizes or inode numbers), take the lseek offset into
2951 account before deciding whether the files are identical.
2952 Avoid mentioning `dev_t', `ino_t' for portability to nonstandard hosts.
2953 Use l.c.m. of files' buffer sizes, not 8 * 1024.
2954 ferror (stdout) does not imply errno has a useful value.
2955 If 2nd file is "-", treat it first, in case stdin is closed.
2957 (cmp): Always compute `char_number', `smaller' for speed and simplicity.
2958 Say `cmp: EOF on input', not `/usr/gnu/bin/cmp: EOF on input',
2961 (block_compare_and_count): Increment line_number argument.
2962 Remove end_char argument; it's always '\n'. All callers changed.
2963 Do not assume sizeof(long) == 4; this isn't true on some 64-bit hosts.
2964 (block_compare): Minimize differences with block_compare_and_count.
2966 (block_read): Coalesce `bp += nread's.
2968 (printc): Remove `FILE *' arg; output to stdout. All callers changed.
2970 * configure.in: Configure HAVE_SIGACTION, RETSIGTYPE, HAVE_VPRINTF.
2971 Configure into config.h.
2973 * context.c (print_context_label):
2974 Standard input's st_mtime is no longer a special case
2975 here, since `compare_files' now sets it to the current time.
2977 * diff.c (usage): Sort options.
2978 (filetype): New function.
2979 (compare_files): Set stdin's st_mtime to be the current time.
2980 Leave its name "-" instead of changing it to "Standard Input";
2981 to test whether a file is stdin, we must compare its name to "-" instead
2982 of its desc to 0, since if it's closed other file descs may be 0.
2983 When comparing standard input to a file, and using a shortcut (e.g.
2984 looking at file sizes or inode numbers), take the lseek offset into
2985 account before deciding whether the files are identical.
2986 Pretend that nonexistent files have the same filetype as existing files.
2987 Rename `errorcount' to `failed', since it's boolean.
2988 In directory comparisons, if a file is neither a regular file nor a
2989 directory, just print its type and the other file's type.
2991 * diff.h (Is_space, textchar): Remove.
2992 (struct msg, msg_chain, msg_chain_end): Move to util.c.
2993 (VOID): Move to system.h.
2994 (line_cmp, version_string, change_letter, print_number_range,
2995 find_change): New decls.
2998 whitespace -> white space. It now stands for whatever isspace yields.
2999 Add --ignore-initial.
3001 * diff3.c (VOID): Move to system.h.
3002 (version_string): Now char[].
3003 (usage): Sort options.
3004 (process_diff): Pacify `gcc -Wall' with a useless assignment.
3005 (read_diff): pid is of type pid_t, not int. Use waitpid if available.
3006 (output_diff3): Simplify test for `\ No newline at end of file' message.
3008 * dir.c (struct dirdata): Rename `files' to `names' to avoid confusion
3009 with external struct file_data `files'.
3011 * io.c (line_cmp): Move declaration to diff.h.
3013 (find_and_hash_each_line): Use locale's definition of white space
3014 instead of using one hardwired defn for -b and another for -w.
3016 * normal.c (change_letter, print_number_range, find_change):
3017 Move decls to diff.h.
3018 (print_normal_hunk): Now static.
3020 * sdiff.c (SEEK_SET): Move to system.h.
3021 (version_string): Now char[], not char*.
3022 (private_tempnam): Remove hardcoded limit on temporary file names.
3023 (exiterr, perror_fatal, main): When exiting because of a signal,
3024 exit with that signal's status.
3025 (lf_refill, main, skip_white, edit, interact): Check for signal.
3026 (ignore_SIGINT): Renamed from `ignore_signals'.
3027 (NUM_SIGS, initial_handler): New macros.
3028 (initial_action, signal_received, sigs_trapped): New vars.
3029 (catchsig, trapsigs): Use sigaction if possible, since this closes the
3030 windows of vulnerability that `signal' has. Use RETSIGTYPE not void.
3031 When a signal comes in, just set a global variable; this is safer.
3032 (checksigs, untrapsig): New functions.
3033 (edit): Pacify `gcc -Wall' with a useless assignment.
3034 Respond to each empty line with help, not to every other empty line.
3035 (private_tempnam): Remove hardcoded limit on temporary file name length.
3036 Don't assume sizeof (pid_t) <= sizeof (int).
3038 * system.h: (S_IXOTH, S_IXGRP, S_IXUSR,
3040 STDIN_FILENO, STDOUT_FILENO, STDERR_FILENO):
3041 New macros, if system doesn't define them.
3042 (volatile): Don't define if already defined.
3043 (PARAMS): New macro.
3044 (VOID): Move here from diff.h.
3046 * util.c (struct msg, msg_chain, msg_chain_end): Moved here from diff.h.
3047 (message5): New function.
3049 (begin_output): Allocate `name' more precisely.
3050 Put child pid into pr_pid, so that we can wait for it later.
3051 Don't check execl's return value, since any return must be an error.
3052 (finish_output): Detect and report output errors.
3053 Use waitpid if available. Check pr exit status.
3054 (line_cmp): Use locale's definition of white space
3055 instead of using one hardwired defn for -b and another for -w.
3056 (analyze_cmp): Avoid double negation with `! nontrivial'.
3057 Pacify `gcc -Wall' be rewriting for-loop into do-while-loop.
3058 (dir_file_pathname): New function.
3060 * version.c (version_string): Now char[], not char*.
3062 Thu Jul 29 20:44:30 1993 David J. MacKenzie (djm@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3064 * Makefile.in (config.status): Run config.status --recheck, not
3065 configure, to get the right args passed.
3067 Thu Jul 22 10:46:30 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3069 * Makefile.in (dist): Replace `if [ ! TEST ]; then ACTION; fi'
3070 with `[ TEST ] || ACTION || exit' so that the containing for-loop exits
3071 with proper status for `make'.
3073 Thu Jul 8 19:47:22 1993 David J. MacKenzie (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3075 * Makefile.in (installdirs): New target.

3086 * side.c (print_sdiff_common_lines, print_sdiff_hunk): Likewise.
3087 * analyze.c, diff3.c, sdiff.c, util.c: Don't assume NULL is defined
3090 Tue May 25 14:54:05 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3092 * analyze.c (diff_2_files): With -q, do not report that files differ
3093 if all their differences are ignored.
3094 (briefly_report): New function.
3095 * diff.h (ignore_some_changes): New variable.
3096 * diff.c (compare_files): Don't use the file size shortcut if
3097 ignore_some_changes is nonzero, since the file size may differ
3098 merely due to ignored changes.
3099 (main): Set ignore_some_changes if we might ignore some changes.
3100 Remove unsystematic assignment of 0 to static vars.
3101 * io.c (read_files): New argument PRETEND_BINARY says whether to
3102 pretend the files are binary.
3104 * diff3.c (tab_align_flag): New variable, for new -T option.
3105 (main, usage, output_diff3): Add support for -T.
3107 Sun May 23 15:25:29 1993 Richard Stallman (rms@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3109 * dir.c (dir_sort): Always init `data' to avoid GCC warning.
3111 Sat May 22 15:35:02 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3113 * Makefile.in (dist): Change name of package from diff to diffutils.

3116 Fri May 21 16:35:22 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3118 * diff.c: Include "system.h" to get memchr declaration.
3119 * system.h (memchr): Declare if !HAVE_MEMCHR, not if
3120 !HAVE_MEMCHR && !STDC_HEADERS.
3122 Wed May 19 17:43:55 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3124 * Version 2.3 released.
3126 Fri Apr 23 17:18:44 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3128 * io.c (find_identical_ends): Do not discard the last HORIZON_LINES
3129 lines of the prefix, or the first HORIZON_LINES lines of the suffix.
3130 * diff.c (main, longopts, usage): Add --horizon-lines option.
3131 * diff3.c (main, process_diff, read_diff): Invoke second diff
3132 with --horizon-lines determined by the first diff.
3133 * diff.h, diff3.c (horizon_lines): New variable.
3135 Mon Mar 22 16:16:00 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

3142 * diff.c (main): Use NULL in arg to compare_files.
3144 Thu Feb 25 15:26:01 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3146 * system.h: Declare memchr #if !HAVE_MEMCHR && !STDC_HEADERS,
3147 not #if !HAVE_MEMCHR || !STDC_HEADERS.
3149 Mon Feb 22 15:04:46 1993 Richard Stallman (rms@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3151 * io.c (find_identical_ends): Move complicated arg outside GUESS_LINES.
3153 Mon Feb 22 12:56:12 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3155 * Makefile.in (.c.o): Add -I$(srcdir); put $(CFLAGS) last before $<.
3157 Sat Feb 20 19:18:56 1993 Richard Stallman (rms@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3159 * io.c (binary_file_p): Return zero if file size is zero.
3161 Fri Feb 19 17:31:32 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3163 * Version 2.2 released.
3165 * system.h [HAVE_STRING_H || STDC_HEADERS] (index, rindex): Don't
3166 define if already defined.
3168 Wed Feb 17 17:08:00 1993 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)

3172 Thu Feb 11 03:36:00 1993 Richard Stallman (rms@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3174 * diff3.c (xmalloc): No longer static.
3176 * sdiff.c (edit): Allocate buf dynamically.
3178 * dir.c (dir_sort): Handle VOID_CLOSEDIR.
3180 Wed Feb 10 00:15:54 1993 Richard Stallman (rms@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3182 * limits.h: File deleted (should never have been there).
3184 Tue Feb 9 03:53:22 1993 Richard Stallman (rms@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3186 * Makefile.in (.c.o, diff3.o, sdiff.o): Put $(CFLAGS) last.
3188 Wed Feb 3 15:42:10 1993 David J. MacKenzie (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3190 * system.h: Don't #define const; let configure do it.
3192 Mon Feb 1 02:13:23 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@hal.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3194 * Version 2.1 released.
3196 * Makefile.in (dist): Survive ln failures. Create .tar.z
3197 (gzipped tar) file as well as .tar.Z (compressed tar) file.
3199 Fri Jan 8 22:31:41 1993 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3201 * side.c (print_half_line): When the input position falls
3202 outside the column, do not output a tab even if the output
3203 position still falls within the column.
3205 Mon Dec 21 13:54:36 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@kropotkin.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3207 * Makefile.in (.c.o): Add -I.
3209 Fri Dec 18 14:08:20 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3211 * configure.in: Add HAVE_FCNTL_H, since system.h uses it.
3213 Tue Nov 24 10:06:48 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@goldman.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3215 * Makefile.in: Note change from USG to HAVE_STRING_H.
3217 Mon Nov 23 18:44:00 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3219 * io.c (find_and_hash_each_line): When running out of lines,
3220 double the number of allocated lines, instead of just doubling
3221 that number minus the prefix lines. This is more likely to
3222 avoid the need for further memory allocation.
3224 Wed Nov 18 20:40:28 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3226 * dir.c (dir_sort): Plug memory leak: space holding directory
3227 contents was not being reclaimed. Get directory size from
3228 struct file_data for initial guess at memory needed.
3229 Detect errors when reading and closing directory.
3230 (diff_dirs): Pass struct file_data to dir_sort. Finish plugging leak.
3231 * diff.c (compare_files): Pass struct file_data to diff_dirs.
3233 * io.c (find_and_hash_each_line): Don't assume alloc_lines is
3234 nonzero when allocating more lines.
3236 Thu Nov 12 16:02:18 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3238 * diff.c (main): Add `-U lines' as an alias for `--unified=lines'.
3240 * diff3.c (usage): Add third --label option in example.
3242 * util.c (analyze_hunk): Fix test for ignoring blank lines.
3244 * configure.in, system.h: Avoid USG; use HAVE_TIME_H etc. instead.
3246 Mon Nov 9 05:13:25 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3248 * diff3.c (main, usage): Add -A or --show-all.
3249 -m now defaults to -A, not -E. Allow up to three -L options.
3250 (output_diff3_edscript, output_diff3_merge):
3251 Remove spurious differences between these two functions.
3252 Output ||||||| for -A. Distinguish between conflicts and overlaps.
3253 (dotlines, undotlines): New functions that output `Ns', not `N,Ns'.
3254 (output_diff3_edscript, output_diff3_merge): Use them.
3256 * io.c (find_identical_ends): shift_boundaries needs an extra
3257 identical line at the end, not at the beginning.
3259 * sdiff.c (edit): execvp wants char **, not const char **.
3261 Mon Oct 19 04:39:32 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3263 * context.c (print_context_script, find_function): Context
3264 line numbers start with - file->prefix_lines, not 0.
3266 * io.c (binary_file_p): Undo last change; it was a library bug.
3268 Sun Oct 18 00:17:29 1992 Richard Stallman (rms@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3270 * io.c (binary_file_p): Consider empty file as non-binary.
3272 Mon Oct 5 05:18:46 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3274 * diff3.c (main, make_3way_diff, using_to_diff3_block): Don't
3275 report bogus differences (for one of -mexEX3) just because the
3276 file0-file1 diffs don't line up with the file0-file2 diffs.
3277 (This is entirely possible since we don't use diff's -n
3278 option.) Always compare file1 to file2, so that diff3 sees
3279 those changes directly. Typically, file2 is now the common
3281 (output_diff3_merge): The input file is file 0, not the common file.
3283 (FC, FO): New macros; they replace FILE1, FILE0 for two-way diffs,
3284 to distinguish them from three-way diffs.
3286 * diff3.c (using_to_diff3_block): Fold repeated code into loops.
3288 * diff3.c (make_3way_diff, process_diff): Have the *_end
3289 variable point to the next field to be changed, not to the last
3290 object allocated; this saves an if-then-else.
3292 * diff3.c (process_diff): Use D_NUMLINES instead of its definiens.
3294 * diff3.c: Make fns and vars static unless they must be external.
3296 Wed Sep 30 09:21:59 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3298 * analyze.c (diff_2_files): OUTPUT_IFDEF is now robust.
3299 * diff.h (ROBUST_OUTPUT_STYLE): Likewise.
3300 (default_line_format): Remove. All refs removed.
3302 * ifdef.c (print_ifdef_lines): Add %L. Optimize %l\n even if user
3303 specified it, as opposed to its being the default.
3305 Tue Sep 29 19:01:28 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3307 * diff.c (longopts, main): --{old,new,unchanged,changed}--group-format
3308 are new options, so that -D is no longer overloaded. Set
3309 no_diff_means_no_output if --unchanged-{line,group}-format allows it.
3310 * diff.h (enum line_class): New type.
3311 (group_format, line_format): Use it to regularize option flags.
3314 * ifdef.c (format_ifdef, print_ifdef_lines): %n is no longer a format.
3316 Mon Sep 28 04:51:42 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3318 * diff.c (main, usage): Replace --line-prefix with the more general
3319 --{old,new,unchanged}-line-format options.
3320 * ifdef.c (format_ifdef, print_ifdef_lines): Likewise.
3321 * diff.h (line_format): Renamed from line_prefix. All refs changed.
3322 * diff.h, ifdef.c (default_line_format): New variable.
3323 * util.c (output_1_line): New function.
3324 (print_1_line): Use it.
3326 * ifdef.c: (format_ifdef, print_ifdef_lines): Add %0 format.
3328 Sun Sep 27 05:38:13 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3330 * diff.c (main): Add -E or --line-prefix option. Add -D'=xxx'
3331 for common lines. Change default -D< format from copy of -D>
3332 format to to -D<%<; similarly for default -D> format.
3333 * diff.h (common_format, line_prefix): New variables.
3334 * ifdef.c (format_ifdef): New function.
3335 (print_ifdef_script, print_ifdef_hunk, print_ifdef_lines):
3336 Use it for -D'=xxx', -E.
3338 * context.c (find_hunk): Glue together two non-ignorable changes that
3339 are exactly CONTEXT * 2 lines apart. This shortens output, removes
3340 a behavioral discontinuity at CONTEXT = 0, and is more compatible
3341 with traditional diff.
3343 * io.c (find_identical_ends): Slurp stdin at most once.
3345 * util.c (print_line_line): line_flag is const char *.
3347 Thu Sep 24 15:18:07 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3349 * ifdef.c (print_ifdef_lines): New function, which fwrites a sequence
3350 of lines all at once for speed.
3351 (print_ifdef_script, print_ifdef_hunk): Use it.
3353 Thu Sep 24 05:54:14 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3355 * diff.c (main): Support new -D options for if-then-else formats.
3356 (specify_format): New function.
3357 * diff.h (ifndef_format, ifdef_format, ifnelse_format): New variables.
3358 * ifdef.c (print_ifdef_hunk): Use the new variables instead of
3361 * side.c (print_1sdiff_line): Represent incomplete lines on output.
3362 (print_sdiff_script): Likewise. Don't print 'q' at end,
3363 since that doesn't work with incomplete lines.
3364 * sdiff.c (interact): Don't assume diff output ends with 'q' line.
3365 * diff.h (ROBUST_OUTPUT_STYLE): OUTPUT_SDIFF is now robust.
3367 * sdiff.c (lf_copy, lf_snarf): Use memchr instead of index,
3368 to avoid dumping core when files contain null characters.
3369 (memchr): New function (if memchr is missing).
3371 * io.c (sip): New arg SKIP_TEST to skip test for binary file.
3372 (read_files): Don't bother testing second file if first is binary.
3374 Thu Sep 17 21:17:49 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3376 * system.h [!USG && !_POSIX_VERSION]: Protect from conflicting
3377 prototype for wait in sys/wait.h.

3381 * Makefile.in: Include binprefix in -DDIFF_PROGRAM.
3383 Tue Sep 15 14:27:25 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3387 Sat Sep 12 01:31:19 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3389 * util.c, diff.h, system.h [!HAVE_MEMCHR]: Don't use void *
3390 and const when declaring memchr replacement. Declare memchr
3391 if !STDC_HEADERS && !USG.
3393 Thu Sep 10 15:17:32 1992 David J. MacKenzie (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3395 * Makefile.in (uninstall): New target.
3397 * diff.c (excluded_filename): Use fnmatch, not wildmat.
3398 (usage): Document -x, -X, --exclude, --exclude-from.
3399 Makefile.in: Use fnmatch.c, not wildmat.c.
3401 Sun Sep 6 23:46:25 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3403 * configure.in: Add HAVE_MEMCHR.
3404 * diff.h, util.c: Use it instead of MEMCHR_MISSING.
3406 Sun Sep 6 07:25:49 1992 Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3408 * diff.h: (struct line_def): Replace this 3-word struct with char *.
3409 This uses less memory, particularly for large files with short lines.
3410 (struct file_data): New member linbuf_base counts number of lines
3411 in common prefix that are not recorded in linbuf;
3412 this uses less memory if files are identical or differ only at end.
3413 New member buffered_lines counts possibly differing lines.
3414 New member valid_lines counts valid data.
3415 New member alloc_lines - linbuf_base replaces old linbufsize.
3416 linbuf[0] now always points at first differing line.
3417 Remove unused members ltran, suffix_lines.
3418 Add const where appropriate.
3419 (Is_space): New macro, for consistent definition of `white space'.
3420 (excluded_filename, memchr, sip, slurp): New declarations.
3421 * ed.c (print_ed_hunk): Adjust to diff.h's struct changes.
3422 * context.c (pr_context_hunk): Likewise.
3423 * ifdef.c (print_ifdef_script): Likewise.
3424 * side.c (print_sdiff_script, print_half_line): Likewise.
3425 * util.c (analyze_hunk, line_cmp, print_1_line): Likewise.
3427 * analyze.c (shift_boundaries): Remove unneeded variable `end' and
3428 unnecessary comparisons of `preceding' and `other_preceding' against 0.
3429 (diff_2_files): When comparing files byte-by-byte for equality,
3430 don't slurp them all in at once; just compare them a buffer at a time.
3431 This can win big if they differ early on.
3432 Move some code to compare_files to enable this change.
3433 Use only one buffer for stdin with `diff - -'.
3434 (discard_confusing_lines, diff_2_files): Coalesce malloc/free calls.
3435 (build_script): Remove obsolete OUTPUT_RCS code.
3437 * diff.c (add_exclude, add_exclude_file, excluded_filename): New fns.
3438 (main): Use them for the new --exclude and --exclude-from options.
3439 (compare_files): Don't open a file unless it must be read.
3440 Treat `diff file file' and `diff file dir' similarly.
3441 Move some code here from diff_2_files to enable this.
3442 Simplify file vs dir warning.
3444 * dir.c (dir_sort): Support new --exclude* options.
3446 * io.c (struct equivclass): Put hash code and line length here instead
3447 of struct line_def, so that they can be shared.
3448 (find_and_hash_each_line): Compute equivalence class as we go,
3449 instead of doing it in a separate pass; this thrashes memory less.
3450 Make buckets realloc-able, since we can't preallocate them.
3451 Record one more line start than there are lines, so that we can compute
3452 any line's length by subtracting its start from the next line's,
3453 instead of storing the length explicitly. This saves memory.
3454 Move prefix-handling code to find_identical_ends;
3455 this wins with large prefixes.
3456 Use Is_space, not is_space, for consistent treatment of white space.
3457 (prepare_text_end): New function.
3458 (find_identical_ends): Move slurping here, so it's only done when
3459 needed. Work even if the buffers are the same (because of `diff - -').
3460 Compare prefixes a word at a time for speed.
3461 (find_equiv_class): Delete; now done by find_and_hash_each_line.
3462 (read_files): Don't slurp unless needed.
3463 find_equiv_class's work is now folded into find_and_hash_each_line.
3464 Don't copy stdin buffer if `diff - -'.
3465 Check for running out of primes.
3466 (sip, slurp): Split first part of `slurp' into another function `sip'.
3467 `sip' sets things up and perhaps reads the first ST_BLKSIZE buffer to
3468 see whether the file is binary; `slurp' now just finishes the job.
3469 This lets diff_2_files compare binary files lazily.
3470 Allocate a one-word sentinel to allow word-at-a-time prefix comparison.
3471 Count prefix lines only if needed, only count the first file's prefix.
3472 Don't bother to count suffix lines; it's never needed.
3473 Set up linbuf[0] to point at first differing line.
3474 (binary_file_p): Change test for binary files:
3475 if it has a null byte in its first buffer, it's binary.
3476 (primes): Add more primes.
3478 * util.c (line_cmp): Use bcmp for speed.
3479 Use Is_space, not is_space, for consistent treatment of white space.
3480 (translate_line_number): Internal line numbers now count from 0
3481 starting after the prefix.
3482 (memchr): New function (if memchr is missing).
3484 * Makefile.in: Document HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE. Link with wildmat.o.
3485 * system.h (STAT_BLOCKSIZE): New macro based on HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE.
3486 * configure.in: Add AC_ST_BLKSIZE.

3499 * io.c (binary_file_p): Use heuristic to avoid declaring info
3500 files as binary files. Allow about 1.5% non-printing
3501 characters (in info's case, ^_).

3527 * sdiff.c [USG || STDC_HEADERS]: Define bcopy in terms of memcpy.
3529 * sdiff.c: Use the version number from version.c.
3530 * Makefile.in: Link with version.o.
3532 * cmp.c error.c xmalloc.c: New files from textutils.
3533 * Makefile.in: Add rules for them.
3535 * diff.c (longopts): --unidirectional-new-file is like -P, not -N.

3625 sdiff-style output format to diff.
3627 Mon Aug 26 16:44:55 1991 David J. MacKenzie (djm at pogo.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3629 * Makefile.in, configure: Only put $< in Makefile if using VPATH,

3732 standard input to a directory; print error instead.
3734 * analyze.c (diff_2_files), context.c (print_context_header,
3735 print_context_script), diff.c (main), diff.h (enum
3736 output_style): Tread unidiff as an output style in its own
3737 right. This also generates an error when both -u and -c are
3740 * diff.c (main): Better error messages when regexps are bad.
3742 * diff.c (compare_files): Don't assume stdin is opened.
3744 * diff3.c (read_diff): Don't assume things about the order of

3865 * util.c (setup_output): Detect error from pipe.
3866 No need to close stdin.

3912 `many' wasn't being used; use it.
3913 Canceling provisionals near start of run must handle already

4117 * analyze.c: To make RCS work correctly on files that don't
4118 necessarily end in newline, introduce some changes that cause
4119 diffs to be sensitive to missing final newline. Because
4120 non-RCS modes don't want to be affected by these changes, they
4121 are conditional on `output_style == OUTPUT_RCS'.
4122 (diff_2_files) [OUTPUT_RCS]: Suppress the "File X missing

4204 Fatal error if context length spec'd twice.
4206 * ed.c (print_ed_hunk): Now special treatment only for lines containing
4207 precisely a dot and nothing else. Output `..', end the insert,
4208 substitute that one line, then resume the insert if nec.
4210 * io.c (find_and_hash_lines): When backing up over starting context,
4211 don't move past buffer-beg.
4213 * io.c (find_identical_ends): Use sentinels to make the loops faster.

4239 * diff.h: Declare index, rindex.
4241 * diff.c (compare_files): If comparing foodir with b/f,
4242 use foodir/f, not foodir/b/f.
4244 * diff.c (compare_files): Don't print "are identical" msg for 2 dirs.
