Pad infinity and negative infinity values with spaces when using the
`-w` option to `seq`. This corrects the behavior of `seq` to match that
of the GNU version:
$ seq -w 1.000 inf inf | head -n 4
1.000
inf
inf
inf
Previously, it incorrectly padded with 0s instead of spaces.
* seq: use BigDecimal to represent floats
Use `BigDecimal` to represent arbitrary precision floats in order to
prevent numerical precision issues when iterating over a sequence of
numbers. This commit makes several changes at once to accomplish this
goal.
First, it creates a new struct, `PreciseNumber`, that is responsible for
storing not only the number itself but also the number of digits (both
integer and decimal) needed to display it. This information is collected
at the time of parsing the number, which lives in the new
`numberparse.rs` module.
Second, it uses the `BigDecimal` struct to store arbitrary precision
floating point numbers instead of the previous `f64` primitive
type. This protects against issues of numerical precision when
repeatedly accumulating a very small increment.
Third, since neither the `BigDecimal` nor `BigInt` types have a
representation of infinity, minus infinity, minus zero, or NaN, we add
the `ExtendedBigDecimal` and `ExtendedBigInt` enumerations which extend
the basic types with these concepts.

GNU rm allows the `-r` flag to be specified multiple times, but
uutils/coreutils would previously exit with an error.
I encountered this while attempting to run `make clean` on the
Postgres source tree (github.com/postgres/postgres).
Updates #1663.
For the CICD on macOS, this fixes:
```
---- common::util::tests::test_check_coreutil_version stdout ----
---- common::util::tests::test_expected_result stdout ----
thread 'common::util::tests::test_expected_result' panicked at
'byte index 4 is out of bounds of `9.0`', tests/common/util.rs:1172:41
```
Replace two loops that print leading and trailing 0s when printing a
number in fixed-width mode with a single call to `write!()` with the
appropriate formatting parameters.
Ensure that the `print_seq_integers()` function is called when the first
number and the increment are integers, regardless of the type of the
last value specified.
Change the way `seq` computes the number of digits needed to print a
number so that it works for inputs given in scientific notation.
Specifically, this commit parses the input string to determine whether
it is an integer, a float in decimal notation, or a float in scientific
notation, and then computes the number of integral digits and the number
of fractional digits based on that. This also supports floating point
negative zero, expressed in both decimal and scientific notation.
This fixes an issue on macOS/bsd where multiple calls
to `host_name_for` each added a prefix 'g'.
The issue led to some tests being skipped because `util_name` was
renamed to e.g. "ggid" instead of "gid".
This makes it no longer possible to pass multiple filenames, but every
other implementation I tried (GNU, busybox, FreeBSD, sbase) also
forbids that so I think it's for the best.
* chown: support '.' as 'user.group' separator (like ':')
It also manages the case:
user.name:group (valid too)
Should fix:
gnu/tests/chown/separator.sh
* Fixed some documentation of display_item_long that was missed in #2623
* Implemented coloring of `ls -l` symlink targets( after the arrow `->`).
* Documented display_file_name to some extent.
* Ran rustfmt as part of mitigating CI chain errors.
* Removed unused variables and code in test_ls_long_format as per #2623
specifically, as per
https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/2623#pullrequestreview-742386707
* Added a thorough test for `ls -laR --color` symlink coloring implemented in this branch.
* renamed test files and dirs to shorter names and ran rustfmt.
* Changed the order with which files are expected to match the change in their name.
* Bettered some comments.
* Removed needless borrow. Fixed that one clippy warning.
* Moved the cfg not windows up to the function level
because this function is meant to only run in non-windows OS (with
groups and unames).
Fixes the unused variable warning in CI.
- prevent duplicate errors from both us and `walkdir` by instructing `walkdir'
to skip directories we failed to read metadata for.
- don't directly display `walkdir`'s errors, but format them ourselves to
match gnu's format
Fix a mix-up between ownership and mode. The latter (mode / file permissions)
can also be set on windows (which however only affects the read-only flag),
while there doesn't seem to be a straight-forward way to change file ownership
on windows.
Copy the acl as well when copying the mode. This is a non-default feature and can be
enabled with --features feat_acl, because it doesn't seem to work on CI.
It is only available for unix so far.
Copy the SELinux context if possible.
Makes the -o auto option construct a format at initialization, rather
than try to handle it as a special case when printing lines. Fixes bugs
when combined with -e, especially when combined with -a.
* Used .as_path() and .as_str() when required:
when the argument required is a Path and not a PathBuf,
or an str and not a Path, respectively.
* Changed display_items to take Vec<PathData>, which is passed, instead of [PathData]
* Added a pad_right function.
* Implemented column-formating to mimic the behavior of GNU coreutils's ls
Added returns in display_dir_entry_size that keep track of uname and
group lengths.
Renamed variables to make more sense.
Changed display_item_long to take all the lengths it needs to render
correctly.
Implemented owner, group, and author padding right to mimic GNU ls.
* Added a todo for future quality-of-life cache addition.
* Documented display_item_long, as a first step in documenting all functions.
* Revert "Used .as_path() and .as_str() when required:"
This reverts commit b88db6a817.
* Revert "Changed display_items to take Vec<PathData>, which is passed, instead of [PathData]"
This reverts commit 0c690dda8d.
* Ran cargo fmt to get rid of Style/format `fmt` testing error.
* Added a test for `ls -l` and `ls -lan` line formats.
* Changed uname -> username for cspell. Removed extra blank line for rustfmt.
Fix a bug in `seq` where the number of characters needed to print the
number was computed incorrectly in some cases. This commit changes the
computation of the width to be after parsing the number instead of
before, in order to accommodate inputs like `1e3`, which requires four
digits when printing the number, not three.
