Fix a bug where `tail -f` would terminate with an error due to failing
to parse a UTF-8 string from a sequence of bytes read from the
followed file. This commit replaces the call to `BufRead::read_line()`
with a call to `BufRead::read_until()` so that any sequence of bytes
regardless of encoding can be read.
Fixes#1050.
Correct the behavior of `dd` with the `status=noxfer` option. Before
this commit, the status output was entirely suppressed (as happens
with `status=none`). This was incorrect behavior. After this commit,
the input/output counts are printed to stderr as expected.
For example,
$ printf "" | dd status=noxfer
0+0 records in
0+0 records out
This commit also updates a unit test that was enforcing the wrong
behavior.
Fix a bug when getting all but the first NUM lines or bytes of a file
via `tail -n +NUM <file>` or `tail -c +NUM <file>`. The bug only
existed when a file is given as an argument; it did not exist when the
input data came from stdin.
This expands the error message that is printed if either input file has
an unsorted line. Both the program name (join) and the offending line
are printed out with the message to match the behaviour of the GNU
utility.
This commit replaces generic Results with UResults in some key
functions in numfmt. As a result of this, we can provide different
exit codes for different errors, which resolves ~70 failing test
cases in the GNU numfmt.pl test suite.
Fix two issues with the filename creation algorithm. First, this
corrects the behavior of the `-a` option. This commit ensures a
failure occurs when the number of chunks exceeds the number of
filenames representable with the specified fixed width:
$ printf "%0.sa" {1..11} | split -d -b 1 -a 1
split: output file suffixes exhausted
Second, this corrects the behavior of the default behavior when `-a`
is not specified on the command line. Previously, it was always
settings the filenames to have length 2 suffixes. This commit corrects
the behavior to follow the algorithm implied by GNU split, where the
filename lengths grow dynamically by two characters once the number of
chunks grows sufficiently large:
$ printf "%0.sa" {1..91} | ./target/debug/coreutils split -d -b 1 \
> && ls x* | tail
