Sort PLIST files. Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running: pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F

Update to 3.9.0
* Use gmake.
* MAKE_JOBS_SAFE=yes (at least, with MAKE_JOBS=5)
Changelog:
NEWS for GNU RCS (Revision Control System)
See the end for copying conditions.
- 5.9.0 | 2013-05-06
- distribution now .tar.lz and .tar.xz
If you have GNU tar, you can use "tar xf" and it will DTRT.
If not, you can use "lzip -dc TARBALL | tar xf -" to unpack
the .tar.lz, or "xz -dc TARBALL | tar xf -" for the .tar.xz.
- planned retirement
- configure option ãà-enable-compat2ãà
This option enables reading of files written by RCS 2.x (before
RCS was GNU, even), but the file format became obsolete in 1982.
Support for it WILL BE REMOVED in a near future GNU RCS release.
- common option ãàVãà
This option is obsoleted by ãà-versionãà(since 5.8, 2011-08-30).
Support for it WILL BE REMOVED in some future GNU RCS release.
Its use now produces a warning to stderr.
Please note that ãàVNãà(N ãè{3,4,5}) is a separate issue.
- bugs fixed
- ãàÏÓcsmerge --helpãàmentions ãàAãà ãàEãà ãàeãà
These options are accepted and internally passed to diff3(1).
- ãàÏÊdent -VNãàand ãàÏÎerge -VNãànow signal error
For these commands, the argument to ãàVãàhas no meaning.
Previously, such invocations would display version info,
ignoring the arg. Now they signal a "bad option" error.
- new features
- ident(1) recognizes Subversion "fixed-width keyword syntax"
In addition to the normal keyword pattern, for Subversion 1.2
(and later) compatability, ident(1) also recognizes patterns
having one of the forms:
$KEYWORD:: TEXT $
;; two colons and space after keyword
;; space before ending $
$KEYWORD:: TEXT#$
;; two colons and space after keyword
;; hash before ending $
- new co(1) option ãàSãàfor "self-same" mode
In this mode, the owner of a lock is unimportant, just that it
exists. Effectively, this prevents you from checking out the
same revision twice.
$ whoami
ttn
$ co -l -f z
RCS/z,v --> z
revision 1.1 (locked)
done
$ co -S -l -f z
RCS/z,v --> z
co: RCS/z,v: Revision 1.1 is already locked by ttn.
- several RCS commands "internalized" into rcs(1)
As part of an ongoing effort to modernize the command-line
interface of GNU RCS, the previously standalone programs:
ci, co, rcs, rcsclean, rcsdiff, rcsmerge, rlog
can now be invoked as "rcs PROGRAM". In this case, we call
PROGRAM a "command", and also provide some aliases. E.g., you
can type "rcs diff" in addition to "rcs rcsdiff" (and "rcsdiff",
of course). We plan to support standalone (w/o "rcs" prefix)
invocation from the shell at least through the 5.x series of
releases -- not indefinitely, but for a good while, yet.
The rcs(1) program itself now supports ãà-commandsãàto list all
the commands, ãà-aliasesãàto list their aliases, as well as
ãà-help COMAMNDãàto show the help for COMMAND.
Note that programs ident(1) and merge(1) remain standalone.
Lastly, in the manual, section "Invoking rcs" now describes both
"modern" and "legacy" usages. Also, the internalized commands
invocations mentions both "rcs COMMAND" and "PROGRAM" styles.
- ãà-helpãàoutput includes a one-line description
E.g., "merge --help" says: "Three-way file merge".
- most long options can be recognized if partially specified
With the exception of "rcs --help COMMAND", where "--help" must
be spelled out in full, all long options can now be recognized
even if partially specified. For example, "rcs --al" is
recognized as "rcs --aliases".
- updated portability
Several more Gnulib (http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib) modules
are now in use.
- new cross-compilation support
The configure script now assigns "pessimistic defaults" when
cross-compiling. See new section "cross-compilation" in README.
- effects of ãàVNãà(N ãè{3,4,5}) documented
See (info "(rcs) Misc common options").
- maintenance tools updated
- gnulib-tool (GNU gnulib 2013-05-01 06:14:19) 0.0.7913-5191
- 5.8.2 | 2013-04-04
- Bugs fixed
- Wrong symbolic name dereference
RCS 5.8 introduced a bug whereby commands would incorrectly
dereference a symbolic name (into a numerical revision number)
in the presence of multiple symbolic names that share a common
prefix. See tests/t803.
- ãàÏÊntegrityãàvalue syntax better specified
The ãàÏÊntegrityãàvalue (if present) is a string composed of a
system part followed by an optional user part, with formfeed
(^L, U+0C) separating the two. Unlike other string values, the
ãàÏÊntegrityãàstring (either part) must NOT contain '@' (U+40).
If it does, RCS displays a "spurious '@' in `integrity' value"
error message and exits failurefully.
This change restores interop play-space for third-party tools
that was stricken w/ the RCS 5.8 top-level grammar freeze. Left
unspecified is how such tools should divvy up the user part.
- New manual chapter: RCS file format
This documents the RCS file format grammar and particulars,
adapted from rcsfile(5).
- Manpages refer to info documentation
They now recommend using "info rcs" for full documentation.
- Script to trim "junk at end of file" posted
The "junk at end of file" error occurs for some files due to RCS
5.8 being more strict about the syntax it accepts. You can use
ãàÏÕrimrcsãàby Warren Jones:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-rcs/2013-01/msg00006.html
to remedy such files while we figure out how best to move such
functionality into RCS proper.
- Maintenance tools updated
- automake (GNU Automake) 1.13.1
- gnulib-tool (GNU gnulib 2013-03-19 16:08:47) 0.0.7899-34f84
- makeinfo (GNU Texinfo) 5.1
- 5.8.1 | 2012-06-05
- Bugs fixed
- Debug output removed
Due to an oversight, release 5.8 rlog included code to write
debugging output to stderr for invocations using the ãàdãàoption
and a date range (e.g., ãàÏÓlog -d 2010<2012ãà.
- Criteria for avoiding read-only checks refined
For "make check", some test cases are inhibited if the user
running the test is not effectively blocked from writing a
purportedly read-only file, such as when "make check" is run by
the super user, or for certain (weird) NFS situations.
Previously, to determine this condition, we considered only the
operating system type, a very crude (and incomplete) proxy.
Now, we explicitly check with a shell sequence comprising the
umask(1) and test(1) commands, plus output-redirection.
- Regression in ãàzLTãàhandling
On a 64-bit x86 system, RCS 5.8 introduced a regression whereby:
rlog -zLT -d>2011-05-04
would select the correct entry but display its date always with
default (01) month and day, i.e., YYYY-01-01. This is now fixed
(see also tests/t320).
- Regression in ãàÏÄi -d -Tãàhandling
RCS 5.8 introduced a regression whereby:
ci -l -d -T FILE
would set the mtime of RCS/FILE,v (the comma-v file) to the
epoch. This is now fixed (see also tests/t810).
- Use ãàÏÅiff --labelãàinstead of ãàÏÅiff -Lãà
Previously, RCS used GNU diff's ãàLãàoption. According to Paul
Eggert (a GNU diffutils maintainer):
That option has been undocumented since diffutils 2.8
(released in March 2002) and the option is intended to
be replaced sometime soon with a different meaning.
Now, RCS uses ãàÏÅiff --labelãà thus immune to the planned change.
- Miscellaneous changes
- Make help extraction noisy (on failure)
- Silence some compiler warnings
- Increase coverage of "make check"
- Documentation improvements
- Manpage rcsintro(1) dropped
This manpage is redundant, and (arguably) should not have been
in section 1 in the first place.
- Use "Invoking COMMAND" instead of "COMMAND" as node names
This makes it easier for ãàÏÊnfo --usage COMMANDãàto DTRT, and
makes GNU (info "(standards) Manual Structure Details") happy.
- explicitly UTF-8
This is to prepare for a (future) GNU Texinfo release that
renders @code in a more pretty way when the encoding is UTF-8.
If you're reading this (from the future) with such a Texinfo at
hand, feel free to regenerate the docs in doc/ prior to install.
- CVS is not GNU
Previously, we incorrectly said "GNU CVS", succumbing to a
common misunderstanding. Now we know better.
- TAGS file no longer distributed
To create, configure normally and do "make TAGS".
- New configure script option ãà-enable-coverageãà
Specifying ãà-enable-coverageãàcauses ãàÏÀExitãàto be an alias for
ãàÏÆxitãàand CFLAGS to append ãà-coverageãàif the compiler is GCC.
This is needed because the coverage machinery writes the .gcda
files only on ãàÏÆxitãà
This option is for maintainers; most people can ignore it.
- Portability improvements
- Use more gnulib modules
- Use portable Makefile subst-ref variable syntax
- Use portable shell command-output interpolation syntax
- Maintenance tools upgraded
- GNU Automake 1.12
- GNU Autoconf 2.69
- gnulib-tool (GNU gnulib 2012-06-03 16:29:00) 0.0.7432-f6c24-modified
- 5.8 | 2011-08-30
- License now GPLv3+ (see COPYING)
- Change in terminology: from "path" to "file name" (or "file-name")
However, if "path" intends "search path", we say so explicitly.
- Changes to the RCS package
- New documentation in Info format
On "make install", rcs.info is installed in $(infodir), with
title "GNU RCS <VERSION>" in dircategory "Version control".
The doc source is texinfo (released under GNU FDL 1.3), so you
can easily create output in HTML, PDF, etc.
- Dropped configure option: --with-diffutils
To specify non-GNU diffutils programs diff(1) and diff3(1), name
them using variables on the configure command-line. See README.
- Configuration more strict in some ways, more lax in others.
Before, part of the configuration was done at compile time.
Now, all of it is done by the configure script. Here are the
set of conditions which will cause the configure script to fail
(with a "could not find..." message):
- for --enable-mailer=PROG, ãàϱROGãànot absolute;
- for diff(1), value of env var ãàÏ¥IFFãànot absolute;
- diff(1) not GNU diffutils compatible;
- for diff3(1), value of env var ãàÏ¥IFF3ãànot absolute;
- for ed(1), value of env var ãàϦDãànot absolute;
- no C99-capable compiler.
Here, "absolute" means "specified as an absolute filename".
On the flip side, configuration no longer checks for some
situations such as ãàÏÔigactionãàyes, but ãàÏ´A_SIGINFOãàno.
Most of the portability duties are now handled by gnulib.
- New configure option: --enable-suid[=setreuid]
This builds RCS with setuid support (the default). Optional
arg ãàÏÔetreuidãàmeans use setreuid(2) instead of seteuid(2).
- New configure option: --disable-mmap
This builds RCS without mmap(2), even if available. See README.
- New configure option: --enable-mailer=PROG
The feature whereby ci(1) sends mail when breaking a lock is now
disabled by default. To enable, specify ãà-enable-mailer=PROGãà to the configure script. See README.
- New configure option: --enable-compat2
This preponderantly unlikely to be used option allows RCS
commands to read RCS files written by RCS 2. See README.
- You can "make check" prior to "make install".
Doing "make check" automatically prepends to the ãàϱATHãàenv var
the value of ãà(abs_top_builddir)/srcãà so that the programs
co, rcsdiff, and rcsmerge can find their peers (co and merge).
Likewise, "make installcheck" prepends ãà(DESTDIR)$(bindir)ãà
Previously, you had to "make install" first and then arrange
for ãà(DESTDIR)$(bindir)ãàto be on ãàϱATHãà"manually".
See tests/README for more info on the test suite.
- Bug fixes
- Remove all edit info when removing all revisions.
Previously, "rcs -o" (outdating) all revisions failed to
leave the RCS file in a consistent state; edit info (i.e.,
log message + diff(1) output) remained for the deleted revisions.
For example, this sequence of commands:
echo foo > foo
ci -q -i -t-desc -mHELLO foo
rcs -q -o1.1: foo
grep '@H' foo,v
used to display "@HELLO" to stdout.
Now, all revisions are completely removed.
- Code no longer uses mktemp(3).
Using mktemp(3) is a security risk. We use mkstemp(3) now.
Likewise, rcsfreeze.sh now uses mktemp(1).
- Misc manpage tweaks / fixes.
Document ãàÏÓlog -qãà fix small merge.1 omission; add branch
labels in rcsfile.5; say "GNU RCS <VERSION>" in footer.
- Other changes
- All commands accept ãà-helpãàand ãà-versionãà
The help output includes an email address for bug reports.
For continuity, option ãàVãàis now a synonym for ãà-versionãà
Relatedly, commands no longer display usage info if given
a bad or malformed option. You can use ãà-helpãàfor that.
- A string of all digits is now valid for author, state.
This means you can set the author or state to, for example,
"000000" or "42". Previously, these would have caused a
"invalid identifier" or "invalid symbol" error.
- Env var RCS_MEM_LIMIT controls stdio threshold.
For speed, RCS uses memory-based routines for files up to
256 kilobytes, and stream-based (stdio) routines otherwise.
You can change this threshold value by setting the environment
variable ãàϳCS_MEM_LIMITãàto a non-negative integer, measured in
kilobytes. An empty ãàϳCS_MEM_LIMITãàvalue is silently ignored.
- RCS can now work with files larger than 2 gigabytes.
RCS now uses large file offsets (#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64).
- Pass-through for RCS file ãàÏÄommitid SYMBOLãànow builtin.
Due to GNU CVS (Concurrent Versions System) using a compatible
file format as RCS for the RCS file, you can use RCS commands
to view and manipulate its contents. (Note, however, the next
NEWS item.)
This works well enough except for a small annoyance: CVS adds a
per-revision field called the "commitid" with an opaque (to RCS)
symbolic value. Previously, RCS commands would emit a warning
"unrecognized phrases" (unless given ãàqãàon the command-line).
RCS commands now automatically support pass-through handling of
ãàÏÄommitid SYMBOLãà(so ãàqãàis no longer necessary).
- RCS file top-level grammar frozen.
The RCS file top-level grammar is now frozen; RCS no longer
supports pass-through operation of unrecognized key/data pairs
(called "newphrases" in the RCS 5.7 rcsfile(5) manpage).
To avoid painting ourselves into a corner, the grammar now
includes a new key ãàÏÊntegrityãàwith @-string value, whose
sub-grammar is not yet specified. (We intend to keep checksums
and other compacted redundancies in this field, for manipulation
by the commands in a future RCS 5.x release.) For upward
compatability, the commands in this release do not change this
field, although they silently read and write it (pass-through),
if present.
- RCS file syntax-validated earlier, completely.
Previously, RCS file syntax was validated lazily, and trailing
garbage was not detected (see bugfix above). Now, a top-level
validation is done on each access.
- Possible to specify an empty log message with ci -m, rcs -m.
The commands "ci -m" and "rcs -m" no longer error on an
empty log message. Their non-interactive behavior is now
consistent with the interactive invocation.
was: ci -m file < /dev/null # use stdin to avoid error
now: ci -m file # works fine, like so
Note that these commands actually store as the log message
the string: "*** empty log message ***".
- Date option accepts some more date-only formats
Date format ãàϺYYY-DDDãàspecifies a year and a day (1-366),
while format ãàϺYYY-wWW-Dãàspecifies a year, an ISO week number
(0-53, 0 is a GNU RCS extension), and a day number (1-7, for
Monday through Sunday).
- Changes to rcsdiff
- New handling for option: -U N
This arranges to output N lines of unified-diff context.
Relatedly, the list of possible options passed to the underlying
diff(1) appears in both "rcsdiff --help" and in the manual.
- Refined "same-revision don't call diff" optimization
Normally, if the two revisions specified are the same, we avoid
calling the underlying diff(1) on the theory that it will
produce no output. This does not hold generally for ãàyãà (--side-by-side) and ãàDãà(--ifdef), such as when the revision
specified is by different symbolic names, so for those options
the optimization is disabled.
