12	* src/side.c (print_half_line): Don't convert to unsigned char
13	unnecessarily.
14
15	Don't mishandle multibyte characters in side-by-side format.

42
432007-08-17  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
44

46	this code.  Idea and code from Bruno Haible.
47	* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add diffseq.

58
59	* src/diff.c (compare_files): Use last_component rather than base_name,

67
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
70	David Kastrup.

115
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

130
131	* doc/diff.texi (Detailed diff3 Normal): "range is a singleton" ->
132	"there is only one line", for clarity.  Suggested by Jerry Peek.
133
1342007-04-04  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
135
136	* TODO: Mention possible sdiff improvement.

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'.
146
1472006-11-15  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
148
149	* src/analyze.c (build_reverse_script): Fix typo in comment.

153
154	Don't assume SIGPIPE exists, and that sigblock and sigsetmask
155	exist if sigprocmask does not.  Problem reported by Paul Edwards
156	for MVS 3.8.
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.

164
1652006-11-04  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
166
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.
170
1712006-09-05  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
172
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.
177
178	Modernize bootstrap procedure to match current gnulib.
179	* bootstrap: Sync with coreutils bootstrap, except check that
180	the directory build-aux exists before trying to copy to it.
181	* bootstrap.conf: New file.
182	(gnulib_modules): Add config-h, dup2, extensions, fcntl, fdl,
183	stat-macros, unistd.
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
218	fcntl.
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
224	we now use inttypes.
225	Include locale.h unconditionally.
226	(setlocale): Remove, since we now assume locale.h.
227
2282006-09-04  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
229
230	* src/context.c (print_context_function): Do not print
231	trailing white space in a context header.
232
2332006-05-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
234
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.
239
2402006-05-07  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>  (tiny change)
241
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.
246
2472006-05-07  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
248
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
256	by Jim Meyering.
257	* src/ed.c (print_ed_hunk, print_forward_ed_hunk, print_rcs_hunk):
258	Likewise.
259	* src/normal.c (print_normal_hunk): Likewise.
260
2612006-05-06  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
262
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.
269
270	* doc/diff.texi: Switch from GFDL 1.1 to 1.2.
271
2722006-03-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
273
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.
281
2822006-03-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
283
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).
288
2892006-01-04  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
290
291	* README-alpha: Describe CVS access better, using the README-alpha
292	from GNU tar.
293	* AUTHORS: Simplify list by removing legalisms.
294	* THANKS: Add Larry Wall, who contributed to manual.  Update email
295	addresses.
296	* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove m4.  Put lib first, then other
297	source files, so documentation can rely on programs being built.
298	* bootstrap: Import changes from Bison bootstrap.  Add gettext,
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
319	it unconditionally.
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.
324	* lib/cmpbuf.c (block_read): Reword to avoid gcc -W warning.

326	* m4/setmode.m4, m4/gnu-source.m4, m4/Makefile.am.in: Remove.
327	* m4/jm-glibc-io.m4: Remove.
328	* src/cmp.c: Don't include <setmode.h>.
329	(specify_ignore_initial): Reword to avoid gcc -W warnings.
330	(main): Use freopen instead of setmode, since freopen is in POSIX.
331	* src/context.c: Revert most 2004-09-01 changes.  Then:
332	(TIMESPEC_NS): Remove.  All uses replaced by
333	get_stat_mtime_ns.
334	Include stat-time.h, strftime.h.
335	(nstrtime): Remove decl.
336	* src/diff.c: Revert most 2004-09-01 changes.  Then:
337	Don't include <posixver.h>, <quotesys.h>, <setmode.h>.
338	Include <sh-quote.h>, <stat-time.h>, <timespec.h>.
339	All uses of quotesys replaced by sh-quote.
340	(main, compare_files):
341	Use freopen instead of setmode, since freopen is in POSIX.
342	(main): Don't complain about "diff -NUM'.
343	(main, set_mtime_to_now):
344	Adjust to stat-time.h macros when accessing nanoseconds.
345	* src/diff3.c: Include sh-quote.h rather than quotesys.  All uses
346	changed.
347	* src/dir.c (dir_read): excluded_filename renamed to
348	excluded_file_name.
349	* src/io.c: Don't include <setmode.h>.

360	* src/util.c: Include sh-quote.h rather than quotesys.h.
361	All uses changed.
362
3632004-09-01  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
364
365	* src/diff.c (recursive, new_file, unidirectional_new_file):

369	New arg OPT.  All uses changed.
370	(GDIFF_MAIN): Remove.  All uses removed.
371	(function_regexp_list, ignore_regexp_list): No longer static; now
372	locals in 'main'.
373	(main): Set opt.function_regexp, opt.ignore_regexp if using regexps;
374	all other code now tests these pointers rather than inspecting fastmap
375	internals.
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
379	assumes reglist->regexps is not NULL.  All uses changed.
380
381	* src/context.c (find_function_last_search): Move into struct diffopt.
382	All uses changed.
383	(pr_context_label, pr_context_header,

385	pr_context_hunk, pr_unidiff_hunk): New arg OPT.  All uses changed.
386	(print_context_number_range,
387	print_unidiff_number_range): New arg OUT.  All uses changed.
388
3892004-07-19  Stepan Kasal  <kasal@ucw.cz>
390
391	* src/ed.c (print_ed_hunk): Optimize the case where an insert's
392	last line is a single-dot line.
393
3942004-06-30  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
395
396	* lib/setmode.c:
397	Don't include <stdbool.h>, since setmode.h now does this.
398	Include setmode.h first, to catch interface errors.
399	Assume HAVE_SETMODE_DOS is defined.
400

415	of "make distcheck" which operates with read-only directories.

417	Remove config/config.rpath as it is deduced automatically these days.

457	(Binary): -q doesn't exactly cause diff to assume files are binary.
458	(Normal): Place after Side by Side, since it's less important.
459	(Detailed Context, Detailed Unified, Detailed ed,
460	Detailed if-then-else, diff3 Hunks, Detailed diff3 Normal):
461	Place at end of menu.
462	(Detailed Unified): Mention that fractional timestamps are

480	test intended to suppress compiler warnings.

483	(PARAMS): Remove; all uses changed.
484	* lib/setmode.c (__attribute__): New macro.
485	(set_binary_mode): Define only if HAVE_SETMODE_DOS.
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.
489
490	* src/analyze.c, src/context.c, src/diff.c, src/io.c, src/util.c:
491	Do not include regex.h, as diff.h does this now.
492
493	* src/cmp.c: Sort includes.  Include <exit.h>, <unlocked-io.h>.
494	(specify_comparison_type): Don't report an error if the comparison

518	(set_mtime_to_now): Use 0, not NULL.
519	(compare_files): Mark files as nonexistent if it looks like
520	'patch' created inaccessible regular empty files to denote
521	nonexistent backups.  Don't compare such files.
522	Clear st_* members of status of	nonexistent file.
523	Remove now-unnecessary tests.
524
525	* src/diff.h: Include regex.h, unlocked-io.h.
526	(struct file_data.changed): Now char *, not bool *, to save
527	space on hosts where bool takes more space than char.
528	All uses changed.
529

531	(strip_trailing_cr): New var.

539	(failed_locale_specific_sorting): Renamed from failed_strcoll.
540	All uses changed.
541	(compare_names): Don't invoke strcasecmp first thing when
542	ignore_file_name_case; if locale_specific_sorting, we should
543	just use that.

546	(next_line0, next_line1): New vars.
547	(print_ifdef_script, print_ifdef_hunk):
548	Use them to fix line-number computation bug.
549
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.
553	* src/util.c (lines_differ): Likewise.
554
555	* src/sdiff.c: Include <unlocked-io.h>, <exit.h>.
556	(check_child_status): Renamed from ck_editor_status, and

563	(S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, S_IXOTH): Remove.

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

569	(CTYPE_DOMAIN, ISPRINT, ISSPACE, TOLOWER, _tolower, errno): Remove;
570	we now assume C89 or better.  All uses changed.
571	Include <stdbool.h> unconditionally now, since gnulib supports it
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.
575
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.

583
584	* src/cmp.c (main): Don't consider two files with the same name to
585	be the same, if their initial skip values differ.  This fixes a
586	bug reported by Hideki Iwamoto in
587	<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2004-03/msg00024.html>.
588
5892004-03-11  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
590
591	* src/analyze.c (diag): Return void, not lin, since the return
592	value wasn't needed.  All callers changed.
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.
600
6012004-02-09  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
602
603	* m4/setmode.m4 (AC_FUNC_SETMODE_DOS): AC_LIBOBJ(setmode) if

612	Bug reported by Chris Bainbridge.
613
6142002-10-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
615
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>.

637

1312	All uses changed.
1313
1314	* src/cmp.c (bytes, specify_ignore_initial, cmp): Use UINTMAX_MAX
1315	instead of (uintmax_t) -1, to avoid warnings on some compilers.

1336	that might result in an invalid comparison function that might
1337	make qsort dump core.
1338	(diff_dirs): Sort the directory ourselves.  Use setjmp to recover
1339	from strcoll failure, falling back on native byte comparison.

1359
1360	* src/sdiff.c (interact): After extracting rlen from the editor
1361	command, test for a terminating null character, not for a newline.
1362
1363	* ms/config.bat: Allow longer source directory names without
1364	overflowing the line length limits.  Create the cache in the
1365	build directory, not in the source directory
1366	* ms/config.sed: Fix AC_CONFIG_LINKS for when symlinks are
1367	unavailable.
1368

1387	than execdiff.  Set errno to 0 before invoking popen.
1388	Check for pclose failure properly.
1389	(main, edit): If child exec fails, exit with 127 rather than trying to
1390	print diagnostic.
1391	Distinguish between subsidiary program failing and not being found.
1392	(edit): Handle signals the same way, regardless of whether we're using
1393	system or fork+exec.  Check for system returning -1.

1406	(main): Use 130 instead of DEFAULT_WIDTH, since it's not really
1407	builder-settable.  Do not prepend DIFF_OPTIONS.
1408	(check-stdout): If fclose (stdout) fails, print errno info.
1409	(option_help_msgid): Default context is 3, not 2.

1433	location.  Ask for "diff --version" in bug reports.

1448
1449	* lib/setmode.c (set_binary_mode) [HAVE_SETMODE_DOS]: Don't assume
1450	O_TEXT has a zero value.  If FD is a terminal device, do nothing
1451	and return MODE, thus pretending that it was already in the
1452	requested MODE.
1453	[HAVE_FCNTL_H]: Include fcntl.h (needed for O_BINARY).
1454
1455	* ms/config.sed: Remove the split prevention of config.status.

1872
1873	(struct file_data): Buffer is now word*, not char*, as it's always

2555	(read_diff): Use SYSTEM_QUOTE_ARG.
2556
2557	* system.h: <string.h>: Include if HAVE_STRING_H, too.
2558	<ctype.h>: Include here.  All includers changed.
2559	(CTYPE_DOMAIN, ISDIGIT, ISPRINT, ISSPACE, ISUPPER): New macros that
2560	work around common <ctype.h> problems.
2561	(O_BINARY): Remove.
2562	(SYSTEM_QUOTE_ARG): New macros.

2577
2578Tue Sep 13 18:46:43 1994  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
2579
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.
2587
2588	* system.h (memcmp): Define in terms of bcmp.
2589	Use HAVE_MEMCHR to test for all mem* routines.
2590
2591	* Makefile.in (srcs): Remove memcmp.c.
2592	We use bcmp if memcmp doesn't work, since we only test for equality.
2593
2594Mon Sep 12 15:52:22 1994  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>
2595
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.

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".
2615
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.
2619
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.
2627
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.
2633
2634	* waitpid.c (waitpid): Fix typo with internal scoping.
2635

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.
2648
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.

2661	make sure SIGCHLD isn't ignored.
2662
2663	* diff3.c (DIFF_CHUNK_SIZE): Removed.  Get size from STAT_BLOCKSIZE.
2664	(INT_STRLEN_BOUND): New macro.

2670	(S_IXGRP, S_IXOTH, S_IXUSR): Remove unused macros.
2671
2672	* util.c (begin_output): Check fdopen result.
2673
2674	The following changes simplify porting to non-Posix environments.

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.

2704
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'.
2707
2708Thu Apr 15 00:53:01 1994  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2709
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.
2714
2715Mon Jan  3 02:05:51 1994  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2716
2717	* Makefile.in (LDFLAGS): Remove -g.  Change all link commands

2720Mon Dec 13 12:23:27 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2721
2722	* system.h: Don't assume dirent.h exists just because

2734
2735	* Version 2.6 released.
2736
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.

2753
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
2757	to be binary.
2758
2759	* util.c (xmalloc, xrealloc): "virtual memory" -> "memory"
2760	(primes): Omit large primes if INT_MAX is small.

2805	(memchr): Make first arg char const *

2843	* sdiff.c (xmalloc): Likewise.
2844
2845	* ifdef.c (format_group): Ensure isdigit argument isn't < 0.
2846
2847	* side.c (print_half_line): Use isprint, since some hosts lack isgraph.

2849	(xmalloc, xrealloc): Remove needless casts.
2850
2851	* system.h (volatile, const):
2852	Define these before including any system headers,
2853	so that they're used consistently in all system includes.
2854	(getenv, malloc, realloc): Declare even if HAVE_STDLIB_H, since some
2855	<stdlib.h>s don't declare them.

2874	work on ttys.
2875
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.
2882
2883Mon Sep 13 06:45:43 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)

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.

2907	these standard names to the traditional names (bcmp, bcpy, index,
2908	rindex, struct direct).  All callers changed.
2909
2910	* system.h (PARAMS, VOID):
2911	Define earlier so that malloc decl can use VOID.

2914Fri Sep  3 00:21:02 1993  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
2915
2916	* diff.c (compare_files): Two files with the same name must be
2917	the same file; avoid a needless `stat' in that case.

2920

2922	Add prototypes to function declarations.
2923	Use size_t, not int, when needed.
2924
2925	* Other pervasive changes:
2926	Use `const' more often.

2928	Use 0, not NULL, for portability to broken hosts.
2929

2936
2937	* cmp.c: Make globals static when possible.
2938
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'.
2942

2944	(long_options): Now const.  Add `--ignore-initial'.
2945	(usage): Sort options and add `--ignore-initial'.
2946	(main, cmp): Add `--ignore-initial' support.
2947
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.
2956
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',
2959	as per Posix.2.
2960
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.
2965
2966	(block_read): Coalesce `bp += nread's.
2967

2969
2970	* configure.in: Configure HAVE_SIGACTION, RETSIGTYPE, HAVE_VPRINTF.
2971	Configure into config.h.
2972
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.
2976
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.
2990
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.
2996
2997	* diff.texi:
2998	whitespace -> white space.  It now stands for whatever isspace yields.
2999	Add --ignore-initial.
3000
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.
3007
3008	* dir.c (struct dirdata): Rename `files' to `names' to avoid confusion
3009	with external struct file_data `files'.
3010
3011	* io.c (line_cmp): Move declaration to diff.h.
3012	(textchar): Remove.
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.
3015
3016	* normal.c (change_letter, print_number_range, find_change):
3017	Move decls to diff.h.
3018	(print_normal_hunk): Now static.
3019
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).
3037
3038	* system.h: (S_IXOTH, S_IXGRP, S_IXUSR,
3039	SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR,
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.
3045
3046	* util.c (struct msg, msg_chain, msg_chain_end): Moved here from diff.h.
3047	(message5): New function.
3048	(pr_pid): New var.
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.
3059
3060	* version.c (version_string): Now char[], not char*.

3068
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'.
3072

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.

3130	* diff.c (main, longopts, usage): Add --horizon-lines option.
3131	* diff3.c (main, process_diff, read_diff): Invoke second diff

3218
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

3225
3226	* dir.c (dir_sort): Plug memory leak: space holding directory

3239
3240	* diff3.c (usage): Add third --label option in example.
3241
3242	* util.c (analyze_hunk): Fix test for ignoring blank lines.

3246Mon Nov  9 05:13:25 1992  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
3247
3248	* diff3.c (main, usage): Add -A or --show-all.

3250	(output_diff3_edscript, output_diff3_merge):
3251	Remove spurious differences between these two functions.
3252	Output ||||||| for -A.  Distinguish between conflicts and overlaps.

3254	(output_diff3_edscript, output_diff3_merge): Use them.
3255
3256	* io.c (find_identical_ends): shift_boundaries needs an extra
3257	identical line at the end, not at the beginning.
3258
3259	* sdiff.c (edit): execvp wants char **, not const char **.
3260
3261Mon Oct 19 04:39:32 1992  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)

3273
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
3280	file, not file0.
3281	(output_diff3_merge): The input file is file 0, not the common file.
3282
3283	(FC, FO): New macros; they replace FILE1, FILE0 for two-way diffs,
3284	to distinguish them from three-way diffs.
3285
3286	* diff3.c (using_to_diff3_block): Fold repeated code into loops.
3287
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.
3291
3292	* diff3.c (process_diff): Use D_NUMLINES instead of its definiens.
3293
3294	* diff3.c: Make fns and vars static unless they must be external.
3295
3296Wed Sep 30 09:21:59 1992  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
3297
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.
3301
3302	* ifdef.c (print_ifdef_lines): Add %L.  Optimize %l\n even if user

3306
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.
3312	All refs changed.

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.

3328Sun Sep 27 05:38:13 1992  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)
3329
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.
3337
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.
3342
3343	* io.c (find_identical_ends): Slurp stdin at most once.
3344
3345	* util.c (print_line_line): line_flag is const char *.

3350	of lines all at once for speed.
3351	(print_ifdef_script, print_ifdef_hunk): Use it.
3352
3353Thu Sep 24 05:54:14 1992  Paul Eggert  (eggert@twinsun.com)

3357	* diff.h (ifndef_format, ifdef_format, ifnelse_format): New variables.
3358	* ifdef.c (print_ifdef_hunk): Use the new variables instead of
3359	a hardwired format.
3360
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.
3366
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).
3370
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.

3374Thu Sep 17 21:17:49 1992  David J. MacKenzie  (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3375

3403	* configure.in: Add HAVE_MEMCHR.
3404	* diff.h, util.c: Use it instead of MEMCHR_MISSING.
3405
3406Sun Sep  6 07:25:49 1992  Paul Eggert (eggert@twinsun.com)
3407
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.
3426
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.
3436
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.
3443
3444	* dir.c (dir_sort): Support new --exclude* options.
3445
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.
3477
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).
3483
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.
3487	* wildmat.c: New file.

3494
3495	* diff.h: Don't declare free, index, rindex.
3496
3497Tue Aug 11 22:18:06 1992  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygnus.com)
3498
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, ^_).
3502
3503Tue Jul  7 01:09:26 1992  David J. MacKenzie  (djm@nutrimat.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
3504

3510	lines with the lists of regexps.

3609	Clean up temporary file and kill subsidiary diff if interrupted.
3610	Ensure subsidiary diff doesn't ignore SIGPIPE.

3648
3649	* diff.h, diff3.c: Rearrange ifdefs to use POSIX,

4184
4185Wed Feb 15 14:24:48 1989  Jay Fenlason  (hack at apple-gunkies.ai.mit.edu)
4186
4187	* diff3.c (message)  Re-wrote routine to avoid using alloca()
4188
4189Wed Feb 15 06:19:14 1989  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
4190
4191	* io.c (find_identical_ends): Delete the variable `bytes'.
4192
4193Sun Feb 12 11:50:36 1989  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
4194
4195	* io.c (slurp): ->bufsize is nominal amount we have room for;
4196	add room for sentinel when calling xmalloc or xrealloc.
4197
4198	* io.c (find_identical_ends): Do need overrun check in finding suffix.
4199
4200Fri Feb 10 01:28:15 1989  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
4201
4202	* diff.c (main): -C now takes arg to specify context length.
4203	Now -p to show C function name--Damned IEEE!
4204	Fatal error if context length spec'd twice.
4205
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.
4209
4210	* io.c (find_and_hash_lines): When backing up over starting context,
4211	don't move past buffer-beg.
4212
4213	* io.c (find_identical_ends): Use sentinels to make the loops faster.
4214	If files are identical, skip the 2nd loop and return quickly.
4215	(slurp): Leave 1 char extra space after each buffer.
4216
4217	* analyze.c (diff_2_files): Mention difference in final newlines.
4218
4219Wed Jan 25 22:44:44 1989  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
4220
4221	* dir.c (diff_dirs): Use * when calling fcn ptr variable.
4222
4223Sat Dec 17 14:12:06 1988  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
4224
4225	* Makefile: New vars INSTALL and LIBS used in some rules;
4226	provide default defns plus commented-put defns for sysV.
4227
4228Thu Nov 17 16:42:53 1988  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
4229
4230	* dir.c (dir_sort): Open-trouble not fatal; just say # files is -1.
4231	(diff_dirs): If dir_sort does that, give up and return 2.
4232
4233	* diff.c (compare_files): Don't open directories.
4234	Don't close them specially either.
4235	Cross-propagate inf[i].dir_p sooner.
4236
4237Sun Nov 13 11:19:36 1988  Richard Stallman  (rms at sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
4238
4239	* diff.h: Declare index, rindex.
4240
4241	* diff.c (compare_files): If comparing foodir with b/f,
4242	use foodir/f, not foodir/b/f.
4243
4244	* diff.c (compare_files): Don't print "are identical" msg for 2 dirs.
4245	Status now 1 if one file is a dir and the other isn't, etc.
4246
4247Thu Nov  3 16:30:24 1988  Randall Smith  (randy at gluteus.ai.mit.edu)
4248
4249	* Makefile: Added a define for diff3 to define DIFF_PROGRAM.
4250
4251	* util.c: Added hack to make sure that perror was not called with
4252	a null pointer.
4253
4254	* diff.c: Changed S_IFDIR to S_IFMT in masking type of file bits
4255	out.
4256
4257	* diff3.c: Included USG compatibility defines.
4258
4259	* diff.h: Moved sys/file.h into #else USG section (not needed or
4260	wanted on System V).
4261
4262	* ed.c, analyze.c, context.c: Shortened names to 12 characters for
4263	the sake of System V (too simple not to do).
