11 * vms/gzip.hlp: Likewise.
13 * Makefile.am (FILES_TO_CHECK): New macro.

52 * deflate.c: Likewise.
55 * inflate.c: Likewise.
57 * revision.h: Likewise.

65 * gzip.c (license_msg): Use more-modern wording.
66 Include fcntl-safer.h, openat.h, stat-macros.h, stat-time.h.
67 Simply include <dirent.h> if !NO_DIR, removing a rats-nest of
69 Simply include <utimens.h> if !defined NO_UTIME, removing a

96 directories that we read.
97 (open_and_stat, open_input_file): New functions.
98 (do_stat, get_istat): Remove; most of the contents went to these new
100 (make_ofname): Don't use WARN, as it affects exit status.
101 (get_method): When the original file name was truncated,
102 restore from its base name, not from its full name.
103 (do_list): Avoid undefined behavior with out-of-range time stamps.
104 ctime, for example, cannot be invoked on arbitrary time stamps safely,
105 since it might overrun an internal buffer. Do not assume that
107 (copy_stat): Do not remove input file; that's now the caller's
108 responsibility. This avoids a problem if there is a write error
109 when the caller closes the output file.

129 Use xcalloc rather than calloc + check.
130 (gzip_error): Renamed from error, so we don't collide with gnulib.
132 (xalloc_die): New function.
133 (xmalloc): Remove; no longer needed.
134 * zip.c (zip): Watch for time stamp overflow; the old code

152 (BUGS): Mention that input file arguments are required.
153 Add copyright notice.

220 Suggested by <antos@MAST.queensu.ca>.
222 2002-09-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
224 * zforce.in: Use shell pattern matching instead of 'expr', which
225 mishandles names like "+". Remove old check for 14-byte file
226 names on hosts with broken "mv" implementations, as such systems
227 aren't in use any more and it's better nowadays to support file
228 names longer than 14 bytes. Rely on "mv"'s error-reporting.
229 This fixes a portability bug reported by Ralf Neubauer, along
230 with some other bugs.
232 Remove dangling output symlinks properly.
233 Bug reported by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo.
234 * gzip.c (lstat): New macro, for platforms lacking lstat.

249 * gzexe.in (PATH): Set to same as other programs.
250 Don't assume "tail +22" works; POSIX removed this.
251 Check against compressing "tail".
252 Check against "skip=" line with no integer.
253 * zgrep.in: Exit with status 2 if trouble, for consistency with grep.
255 * gzip.c (main): Avoid core dump in diagnostic message if
256 incorrect suffix is given.
258 2002-09-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
260 * zdiff.in: Use "trap -" instead of "trap". Patch by Nicolas Boullis.

281 * Makefile.am (AM_MAKEINFOFLAGS): Add --no-split.
282 (gzip_TEXINFOS): New macro.

285 * gzip.c (NO_DIR): Define to 0 if not defined. All uses changed.
286 (usage): Don't put '#if' inside printf, as the C standard says
287 that it is not portable if printf is a macro.
289 Don't lose output when decompressing truncated input.
290 Bug reported by Nadav Har'El.
291 * inflate.c (GETBYTE): New macro.
293 (inflate_dynamic, inflate_block): Add a local variable w, needed

391 * configure.in (AC_PROG_SHELL): Add it.
392 * Makefile.am (ACINCLUDE_INPUTS): Add $(M4DIR)/shell.m4.

516 Revision 1.2.4.4294967303, dated today.
518 * gzip.c (get_method): Don't complain about trailing zeros at

974 Add support for DJGPP.
975 Add support for the Atari ST.
976 Added zforce to rename gzip'ed files with truncated names.
