	* NEWS: Record release date.

2022-01-31  Reuben Thomas  <rrt@sc3d.org>

	maint: allow atexit-1 test to work when wprintf failed
	The test assumed that there was no error before closing stdout. When
	there is, the output is different (close_stdout detects a previous
	error).

	Hence, detect just the “write error” part of the output, which is
	constant.

	(The other part may depend on the libc anyway.)

2022-01-27  Reuben Thomas  <rrt@sc3d.org>

	tests: remove multibyte-1 test
	There is no way to make wide character conversion fail reliably: in
	particular, some libc’s, such as musl, allow conversion even in the C
	locale; and glibc allows it in 8-bit locales.

	  requested, and stderr when the message is given as hint user should
	  do something other.
	* src/hello.c: Add Translation Project address to the bug reports line,
	  similarly what the coreutils is doing.
	* src/hello.c: Exit with none-zero value when option operand error
	  happens.

	build: add write bit to manual page file in distribution file
	* Makefile.am (hello.1): Extracted distribution package should be
	removable without --force option.
	Reported by Benno Schulenberg.

	and such error has already slipped twice to hello, see 9aaee4c9 and
	bc966b6f.

	  of scripts in .git/hooks/ directory.

2014-08-20  Sami Kerola  <kerolasa@iki.fi>

	build: revert AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT to TESTS_ENVIRONMENT
	* Makefile.am: prefer TESTS_ENVIRONMENT rather than AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT
	  to avoid problems with older automake versions.  For example Travis-CI
	  is not working because of this issue, or Debian stable cannot be used
	  to build upstream GNU Hello.
	* configure.ac: automake 1.12 or newer will not allow combination of
	  parallel-tests and TESTS_ENVIRONMENT.

	Reference:
	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hello/2014-07/msg00003.html

2014-07-26  A. Gordon  <assafgordon@gmail.com>

	build: generate man-page only when appropriate
	* configure.ac: detect compilation under git (vs tarball), and
	cross-compilation.
	* Makefile.am:
	1) re-generate (and clean) man-page only when building from git.
	2) if building from git AND cross-compiling, don't add target for
	   man-page - there's no way to generate it.

	Possible future improvement: If cross-compliing from git, AND user have
	'binfmt' configured to run non-native binaries, then the man-page can be
	generated.

	Reference:
	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hello/2014-07/msg00001.html

2014-05-04  Jim Meyering  <meyering@fb.com>

	maint: add gnulib's update-copyright module
	* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add update-copyright, so
	that each year we can run "make update-copyright".
	Otherwise, that rule fails due to the absence of the file
	in build-aux.

	maint: don't let envvar setting break ChangeLog generation
	* Makefile.am (gen-ChangeLog): Clear amend_git_log when we
	don't set it, so that an envvar setting cannot cause trouble.

	maint: add an example how to use git-log-fix file

	of gitlog-to-changelog and propogate exit status appropriately.

2014-04-20  Sami Kerola  <kerolasa@iki.fi>

	Revert "maint: make ChangeLog generation more robust"
	I should have used patch sent by Pádraig Brady to GNU Hello maillist.

	This reverts commit fb1c5fbd5eee3ab6e3270b6aaf4037bca8ab20bd.

2014-04-20  Sami Kerola  <kerolasa@iki.fi>

	update gnulib
	* gnulib: jump 56 commits a head

	* Makefile.am (gen-ChangeLog): Check the git-log-fix file is present
	before trying to use it.  This change was made to coreutils by Pádraig
	Brady and copied to GNU Hello as-is.
	* build-aux/git-log-fix: Add example how to use git-log-fix file.

2014-03-13  Jim Meyering  <meyering@fb.com>

	maint: accommodate "make syntax-check"
	* doc/hello.texi: Replace itemized copyright year numbers with an
	equivalent range, to placate a "make syntax-check" rule.

	maint: make po/POTFILES.in consistent
	* po/POTFILES.in: Remove src/system.c: it no longer contains any
	translatable strings.

	maint: update all copyright dates via "make update-copyright"

	build: do not fail due to an existing read-only hello.1
	* Makefile.am (hello.1): In Makefile rules, never redirect directly
	to the target.  Instead, redirect to a temporary, $@-t, and once
	that succeeds, rename to target using "mv -f".
	Also, since this is a generated file, explicitly make it read-only,
	so one is less likely to think it is an editable primary source.
	Reported by Assaf Gordon.

2014-01-13  Sami Kerola  <kerolasa@iki.fi>

	Use parallel tests harness, to fix make check with newer automake.
	* configure.ac (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Add the 'parallel-tests' option.
