- Update to 3.1:
+ Bug fixes
- diff no longer reports spurious differences merely because two
entries in the same directory have names that compare equal in
the current locale, or compare equal because --ignore-file-name-case
was given.
* Sun Sep 19 2010 vuntz@opensuse.org
- Update to version 3.0:
+ Bug fixes
- diff once again prints the required "\ No newline at end of
file" line when at least one input lacks a newline-at-EOF and
the final hunk plus context-length aligns exactly with the end
of the newline-lacking file.
[bug introduced between 2.8.7 and 2.9]
+ Changes in behavior
- In context-style diffs, diff prints a portion of a preceding
"function" line for each hunk, with --show-function-line=RE
(-F) or --show-c-function (-p). Now, it trims leading blanks
from such lines before extracting a prefix. This is useful
especially when a function line is so far indented that the
name itself would be truncated or not included in the
limited-width substring that diff appends.
- diff once again reports a difference with the diagnostic
"Binary files A and B differ" when at least one of the files
appears to be binary. From 2.8.4 through diffutils-2.9, it
printed "Files A and B differ".
- Changes from version 2.9:
+ New features
- New diff option --suppress-blank-empty.
- Bring back support for `diff -NUM', where NUM is a number,
even when conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001. This change
reverts to the behavior of GNU diff 2.7 and earlier. This is
a change only when conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001; there is
no effect when conforming to older POSIX versions.
- sdiff now understands '1' and '2' as synonyms for 'l' and
'r'.
+ Changes in behavior
- sdiff and diff3 now invoke diff, not $(bindir)/diff
+ Administrivia
- updated gnulib support
- Drop diffutils-no_binary_mode.patch: fixed upstream.
- Drop diffutils-2.8.1-i18n-0.2.patch: this doesn't apply anymore,
the only reference I can guess about it goes back to 2004, and
commit 8983b8d9 upstream is about handling multibyte characters
in side-by-side format. So I'm assuming it's fixed. This also
means we can drop the call to autoreconf.
- Drop diffutils-2.8.7-autoconf.patch: this is not needed anymore.
- Remove AutoReqProv: it's default now.
- Stop touching the main pages in %build.
- Use %configure and %makeinstall macros.
* Fri Aug 20 2010 pth@novell.com
- Only do freopen if O_BINARY is true.
* Mon Jun 28 2010 jengelh@medozas.de

* Sat Feb 13 2010 rguenther@suse.de
- fix stack limit autoconf check
* Mon Dec 07 2009 jengelh@medozas.de
- enable parallel building
* Thu Jan 10 2008 schwab@suse.de
- Update to head of trunk.
* New diff option --suppress-blank-empty.
* Bring back support for `diff -NUM', where NUM is a number,
even when conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001. This change reverts to
the behavior of GNU diff 2.7 and earlier. This is a change only
when conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001; there is no effect when
conforming to older POSIX versions.
This change is in response to decisions taken in the January 2005
Austin Group standardization meeting. For more details, please see
"Utility Syntax Guidelines" in the Minutes of the January 2005
Meeting <http://www.opengroup.org/austin/docs/austin_239.html>.
