Problem reportyed by Phillip Lord.
* admin/update_autogen, autogen.sh, build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog:
* configure.ac, make-dist:
Do not require that .git be a directory, as 'git worktree' makes
it a file and not a directory.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog: Ignore all merges from gnu.org,
not merely those from master and emacs-NN. The ChangeLog entries
they generate are not that useful.
POSIX says that ‘echo FOO’ produces implementation-defined output
if FOO contains leading ‘-’, or ‘\’ anywhere, so don’t assume GNU
behavior in that case.
* Makefile.in (removenullpaths): Remove.
(epaths-force): Rewrite to avoid the need for ‘echo’.
(install-etc): Be clearer about escaping the shell metacharacters
‘\’ and ‘$’.
* Makefile.in (install-arch-indep, install-etcdoc):
* admin/charsets/mapconv, admin/merge-gnulib, admin/merge-pkg-config:
* admin/quick-install-emacs, build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog:
* configure.ac, lib-src/rcs2log, make-dist:
* src/Makefile.in (lisp.mk):
Don’t assume ‘echo’ outputs ‘\’ and leading ‘-’ unscathed.
For example, use ‘printf '%s\n' "$foo"’ rather than ‘echo "$foo"’
if $foo can contain arbitrary characters.
* lisp/Makefile.in (TAGS): Use ‘ls’, not ‘echo’, to avoid ‘\’ issues.
* doc/lispref/two-volume.make (vol1.pdf):
* test/etags/make-src/Makefile (web ftp publish):
Use ‘printf’ rather than ‘echo -e’.
That way, 'make change-history' needs to change only ChangeLog.2,
instead of having to change two files.
* ChangeLog.2: Add commit info for range that this file covers.
* Makefile.in (new_commit_regexp): New macro.
(change-history-nocommit): Simplify, by putting what used to be
the gen_origin value into the data (ChangeLog.2) rather than
into the program (gitlog-to-emacslog).
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog (gen_origin): Calculate from
the input file (e.g., ChangeLog.2) rather than by having a
constant in the program. Substitute it into the output.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog: Add command-line options.
By default, refuse to remove an existing output file.
* Makefile.in (CHANGELOG): Update default.
(ChangeLog): Do not test for existing file.
(change-history-nocommit): Ensure temp file does not exist.
* Makefile.in (gen_origin): Move to gitlog-to-emacslog.
(emacslog): New variable.
(ChangeLog): Use $emacslog. Don't pass $gen_origin.
(unchanged-history-files): Use $emacslog rather than Makefile.in.
(change-history-nocommit): Store hash in $emacslog.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog (gen_origin): Move default here.
* admin/update_autogen (changelog_files): Update for the above.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog: Use ChangeLog.1, not Makefile.in,
for copyright notice prototype, so that we get a proper "coding:"
cookie. Use 'mv -i' to avoid unconditionally overwriting an
existing ChangeLog. Problems reported by Eli Zaretskii in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-04/msg00504.html
* .gitignore: Add 'ChangeLog'.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-changelog: New file, from Gnulib.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog: New file.
* CONTRIBUTE: Document the revised workflow.
* Makefile.in (clean): Remove *.tmp and etc/*.tmp*
instead of just special cases.
(CHANGELOG_HISTORY_INDEX_MAX, CHANGELOG_N, gen_origin): New vars.
(ChangeLog, unchanged-history-files, change-history)
(change-history-commit): New rules.
* admin/admin.el (make-manuals-dist--1):
Don't worry about doc/ChangeLog.
* admin/authors.el: Add a FIXME.
* admin/make-tarball.txt:
* lisp/calendar/icalendar.el:
* lisp/gnus/deuglify.el:
* lisp/obsolete/gulp.el:
* lwlib/README:
Adjust to renamed ChangeLog history files.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Add gitlog-to-changelog.
* admin/notes/repo: Call it 'master' a la Git, not 'trunk' a la Bzr.
Remove obsolete discussion of merging ChangeLog files.
New section "Maintaining ChangeLog history".
* build-aux/git-hooks/pre-commit:
Reject attempts to commit files named 'ChangeLog'.
* lib/gnulib.mk, m4/gnulib-comp.m4: Regenerate.
* make-dist: Make and distribute top-level ChangeLog if there's a
.git directory. Distribute the new ChangeLog history files
instead of scattered ChangeLog files. Distribute the new files
gitlog-to-changelog and gitlog-to-emacslog.
Fixes: bug#19113
