Historically, the MD5 checksums in our LFS files serve as a protection
against broken downloads, or accidentally corrupted source files.
While the sources are nowadays downloaded via HTTPS, it make sense to
beef up integrity protection for them, since transparently intercepting
TLS is believed to be feasible for more powerful actors, and the state
of the public PKI ecosystem is clearly not helping.
Therefore, this patch switches from MD5 to BLAKE2, updating all LFS
files as well as make.sh to deal with this checksum algorithm. BLAKE2 is
notably faster (and more secure) than SHA2, so the performance penalty
introduced by this patch is negligible, if noticeable at all.
In preparation of this patch, the toolchain files currently used have
been supplied with BLAKE2 checksums as well on
https://source.ipfire.org/.

- Changelog
2018-12-31 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
version 3.7
* NEWS: Record release date.
maint: distribute new file, init.cfg
Otherwise, strip-trailing-cr would fail on a system without valgrind.
* tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Include init.cfg.
2018-12-30 Dennis Lambe Jr <malsyned@malsyned.net>
diff: adjust ANSI escapes for compatibility with less -R
GNU less can display ANSI-colored text with the -R flag, but this
support has some limitations. One of them is that if an escape
sequence starts on one line and ends on a different line, only the
first line will be colored in less.
As a result, when diff creates colored output with multi-line deletes
or adds, less will only color the first line.
This change resets ANSI color to the default at the end of
each line and restarts it at the beginning of the next. It patches
normal and context mode. Side-by-side already worked in my testing.
* src/context.c (print_context_label, pr_context_hunk): As above.
(pr_unidiff_hunk, print_context_header): Likewise.
* src/normal.c (print_normal_hunk): Likewise.
* tests/colors: Adjust existing tests to accommodate this.
* NEWS (Improvements): Mention it.
Proposed in http://bugs.gnu.org/31105
2018-12-29 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
tests: fix colors test on systems lacking fractional timestamp support
* tests/colors: The .NNNNNNNNN suffix is not printed on some systems.
Adapt the test to accommodate those systems.
tests: strip-trailing-cr: avoid failure with ASAN
Valgrind cannot operate on an ASAN-compiled binary.
* tests/strip-trailing-cr (valgrind): Define as no-op when diff
was compiled with sanitizer support.
2018-12-28 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
tests: add test for --strip-trailing-cr UMR bug
* tests/strip-trailing-cr: New file. Test for today's bug fix.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
tests: import test infrastructure from coreutils
* tests/init.cfg: New file, for require_valgrind_ definition (from coreutils).
* tests/Makefile.am (PATH): Don't set stderr_fileno_ here, since it is
now initialized in init.cfg.

diff: fix UMR with --strip-trailing-cr
Problem reported by Hongxu Chen (Bug#31935).
* src/io.c (prepare_text): Strip trailing CR before
doing the rest of the analysis.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
2018-12-28 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
tests: colors: avoid test failure on AIX 7
* tests/colors: Splice the argument into the printf format string.
2018-12-27 Bruno Haible <address@hidden>
maint: don't use an undocumented Autoconf macro
* configure.ac: Use AC_CONFIG_HEADERS instead of AC_CONFIG_HEADER.
2018-12-23 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
build: avoid build failure with --enable-gcc-warnings and latest gcc
* src/diff.c (usage): Assert that each line length is no longer than
the minimum required size of 4095. This lets newer gcc (currently
9.0.0 20181219) infer that it need not issue this warning:
diff.c:1012:19: error: '%.*s' directive output between 0 and 2147483647
bytes may exceed minimum required size of 4095
[-Werror=format-overflow=]
1012 | printf (" %.*s", msglen, msg);
build: update gnulib to latest; and bootstrap and init.sh
build: make the autoconf-2.63 requirement explicit
* configure.ac: AC_PREREQ: Require 2.63, not 2.59. And quote properly.
Autoconf-2.63 has been required for some time via gnulib.
This merely makes it explicit.
2018-12-20 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
maint: use https: in gnu mirror URL prefix, not http
This appears in the generated release announcement message.
* cfg.mk (url_dir_list): Use https: prefix, not http:.
2018-07-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
cmp: fix bug in -b diagnostic
Problem reported by mancha (Bug#32249).
* src/cmp.c (count_newlines): Restore old value of sentinel.
* tests/cmp: Test for the bug.
build: update gnulib submodule to latest
2018-05-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
doc: prepend "GNU" to NAME in man pages
Requested by RMS.
* src/cmp.c, src/diff.c, src/diff3.c, src/sdiff.c:
Prepend "GNU" to first comment, so that the man page says "GNU".
2018-04-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
sdiff: port to mingw
Problem reported by Ross Burton (Bug#31218).
* src/sdiff.c (checksigs): Use ‘raise’, not ‘kill’.
2018-03-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
build: update gnulib submodule to latest
2018-01-14 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
tests: fix quoting error in previous change
* tests/colors: Double-quote $PATH.
2018-01-06 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
tests: port tests/colors to some env-munging shell
* tests/colors: Also set PATH="$PATH" in env invocation.
maint: update gnulib and copyright dates for 2018
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* all files: Run "make update-copyright".
* bootstrap: Update from gnulib.
maint: suppress gcc's new -Wcast-function-type in gnulib
* configure.ac (WERROR_CFLAGS): Suppress gcc's new -Wcast-function-type
warning in gnulib, because it would trigger on this:
sig-handler.h:47:12: error: cast between incompatible function types\
from 'void (* const)(int, siginfo_t *, void *)' \
{aka 'void (* const)(int, struct <anonymous> *, void *)'} \
to 'void (*)(int)' [-Werror=cast-function-type]
return (sa_handler_t) a->sa_sigaction;
2017-10-22 Jim Meyering <meyering@fb.com>
tests: add expected-failing test for minor subopimality
In some unusual cases, diff -u prints suboptimal output.
* tests/large-subopt: New test script.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
(XFAIL_TESTS): Add it here, too, to record that this test is
currently expected to fail.
* tests/large-subopt.in1, tests/large-subopt.in2: Inputs derived from
those in http://bugs.gnu.org/28796
