+ [in 1.14.5]
+
+execute_cmd.c
+ - changed execute_builtin and execute_function to not set

+general.c
+ - canonicalize_pathname should not attempt to interpret backslash
+ quoting `/', since Unix doesn't really allow it [in 1.14.5]
+
+bashline.c
+ - added `\', `!', and `)' to the list of characters which
+ cause filenames to be quoted
+ - changed bash_quote_filename to use any of the three shell
+ quoting styles based on the value of a variable,
+ completion_quoting_style
+ - if *qcp is not 0 when passed to bash_quote_filename, adjust the
+ type of completion we're doing based on its value (i.e.,
+ *qcp == '"' forces double quoting, *qcp == '\'' forces single)
+ - bash_quote_filename now leaves the quotes intact in the filename
+ it returns. The readline completion code takes care of avoiding
+ doubled open quotes
+ - if a filename containing a `!' is passed to bash_quote_filename
+ without an opening quote character, and we are performing history
+ expansion, use single quoting as the quoting style
+
+bashhist.c
+ - changed bash_history_disable to not call bash_history_reinit(0),
+ but do what it needs to directly
+ - new function bash_history_enable
+ - make history_expansion_inhibited exist only if BANG_HISTORY
+ is defined
+
+bashhist.h
+ - extern declaration for bash_history_enable
+
+lib/readline/complete.c
+ - make make_quoted_replacement set should_quote to 1 if the quote

+
+test.c
+ - added the csh-like `=~' and `!~' pattern-matching binary operators
+ which match the string on the lhs against the shell pattern on

+ undefined and undocumented by default
+

+
+builtins/read.def
+ - new function, bind_read_variable, to allow binding simple variables
+ and array elements to strings read (uses do_array_element_assignment)
+ - changed occurrences of bind_variable to bind_read_variable where
+ it matters
+
+variables.c

+ - changed ASSOC to alias_t
+
+alias.c
+ - changed add_alias to set the AL_EXPANDNEXT flag when the alias is
+ inserted into the hash table
+
+parse.y
+ - added a third parameter to push_string: a pointer to the alias_t
+ that is being expanded
+ - push_string marks the alias it's passed as being expanded
+ (AL_BEINGEXPANDED)
+ - pop_string marks the alias being popped as no longer being
+ expanded
+ - changed shell_getc to defer popping an alias expansion until
+ the parser has had a chance to catch up, since the parser reads
+ ahead and would cause the expansion to be popped before it
+ fully parsed the expanded string
+ - changed alias_expand_word to check the AL_BEINGEXPANDED flag
+ instead of the expanded_token_stack when checking whether an
+ alias is already being expanded
+
+oslib.c
+ - make the definition of bzero be surrounded by #ifdef HAVE_BZERO

+ - cd_builtin now tests that a directory constructed from a $CDPATH

+ - added an error message if $HOME is not set
+ - added a descriptive error message if `cd -' used and OLDPWD unset
+ - changed the error messages to use builtin_error, not file_error
+ - moved the code at the bind_and_exit label into a function,

+
+subst.c
+ - made the `quoted' parameter to expand_word_internal into a flags

+ number. This message is printed only if the job dies due to
+ a fatal signal
+
+support/mkversion.c

+execute_cmd.c
+ - before doing a longjmp(subshell_top_level,...) when executing a

+
+unwind_prot.c
+ - changed unwind_protect_var and restore_variable to do the

+ from being copied if a short is being unwind-protected
+
+unwind_prot.h
+ - new define, unwind_protect_short, to protect variables smaller

+command.h
+ - new flag value for a word: W_NOSPLIT. A word with this bit set
+ in its flags will not have word splitting performed
+
+parse.y
+ - turn on the W_NOSPLIT flags for assignment statements appearing
+ where an assignment statement is acceptable (words that would
+ return ASSIGNMENT_WORD rather than WORD). This means that, for
+ the time being, assignment statement arguments to builtins like
+ `declare' or `alias' will be split unless they are quoted
+
+subst.c
+ - don't split a word in expand_word_internal if the W_NOSPLIT flag
+ is set, rather than checking W_ASSIGNMENT; do the same thing in
+ expand_word_list_internal
+
+builtins.h
+ - a new flag, ASSIGNMENT_BUILTIN, indicating that this builtin takes
+ assignment statements as arguments
+ - rearranged the values of the builtin flags, so the BUILTIN_* flags
+ come first, then the *_BUILTIN flags
+
+builtins/makebuiltins.c
+ - added code for an array of `assignment builtins' -- builtins that
+ take assignment statements as arguments -- and to add the
+ ASSIGNMENT_BUILTIN flag for those builtins
+
+execute_cmd.c
+ - added a hack function `fix_assignment_words', which checks the
+ first word of a builtin command to see if it is a builtin that
+ has the ASSIGNMENT_BUILTIN flag set, and adds W_NOSPLIT to the
+ flags for all words with the W_ASSIGNMENT bit set. This means
+ that word splitting is not done for any of the assignment
+ statements in commands like `declare z=$a'

+lib/readline/complete.c
+ - in rl_complete_internal, if the completion function results in

+ _getenv() as well, which just calls getenv()
+
+builtins/ulimit.def

+
+execute_cmd.c
+ - new function, builtin_status(), to translate the new return
+ status codes to something the shell can export
+ - changed execute_simple_command to call builtin_status after

+parse.y
+ - augmented parse_matched_pair
+ o fixed up backslash quoting and CTLESC handling after

+ o keep track of line number quoted string starts on for

+ o push and pop delimiters when parsing quoted strings
+ inside $(...), ${...}, and $[...] for use by the

+ o set EOF_Reached to 1 if we get an EOF before finding the
+ match closer
+ - rewrote read_token_word from scratch to use parse_matched_pair:
+ o shell quote characters use parse_matched_pair to find
+ the matching quote
+ o fixed up backslash parsing code
+ o compound array assignments use parse_matched_pair
+ o corrected all_digits and dollar_present computations, so,
+ for instance, 2''>/dev/null is no longer accepted as
+ identical to 2>/dev/null
+ o converted ${...} parsing to use parse_matched_pair
+ o removed printing of error messages about unmatched quotes;
+ now handled by parse_matched_pair
+ o converted $'...' and $"..." to use parse_matched_pair
+ o removed all of the delimited_xxx and dollar_xxx variables

+ - modified report_syntax_error to regularize error messages:
+ o non-interactive shells and interactive shells running

+ o unexpected EOF is always reported when EOF_Reached is true
+ o non-interactive shells no longer duplicate the script name
+ in error messages (e.g., `./z3: ./z3: line 3: syntax error')

+
+locale.c
+ - track the value of $LC_COLLATE and call setlocale(LC_COLLATE,...)
+ when it changes. Also, set its default value

+
+lib/readline/util.c

+
+lib/readline/terminal.c
+ - new function, _rl_set_screen_size(int rows, int cols), to set

+
+jobs.c, nojobs.c
+ - make sure that window size changes are propagated back down to

+builtins/command.def
+ - the `command' builtin should not be setting CMD_NO_FORK at all;
+ it doesn't know enough about the execution context to do so
+
+execute_cmd.c, subst.c
+ - set subshell_environment to one of the values in command.h rather
