2007-07-14Fix Savannah bug #20452.Paul Smith1-0/+20
Add a new feature to the test suite suggested by Icarus Sparry: set a timer before invoking a test, so that if it loops infinitely we will wake up and have a chance to kill the process and continue.

Update NEWS docs. Enhance the manual to use automake version.texi, and use the canonical FSF copyright features and statement. Some $(realpath ...) tests won't work on Windows; leave them out The jobserver filedescriptor test might fail if some FDs are reserved, so for now comment out that check.

list. Fixes Savannah bug #15757.
2006-02-15Fix Savannah bug #106: keep separate track of which variable we arePaul Smith1-0/+12

2006-01-04Various changes getting ready for the release of 3.81.Paul Smith1-0/+6
- Updates to make.texi and make.1 and other documentation - Some VMS patches - Fix minor bugs reported on the mailing list and from Debian.
2005-12-13Update the make.1 man page.Paul Smith1-0/+9
Use rm -f instead of rm in the test scripts. Fixes bug #15085.
2005-12-11Extend .SECONDEXPANSION to implicit rules. Final fix for bug #13781.Paul Smith1-0/+6
2005-12-09Fixed bug #13022 by setting is_target flag on files that this implicitBoris Kolpackov1-0/+4
pattern rule also makes.
2005-12-07Fixed bug #14334 by propagate the change of modification time to all theBoris Kolpackov1-0/+4
double-colon entries only if it is the last one to be updated.
2005-11-17Implemented the flavor function which returns the flavor ofBoris Kolpackov1-0/+4
a variable ('simple', 'recursive', or 'undefined').
2005-11-14Implemented the .INCLUDE_DIRS special variable. It expands to a listBoris Kolpackov1-0/+5
of directories that make searches for included makefiles.
2005-10-24Make second expansion optional (partial implementation).Paul Smith1-0/+12
I decided this feature was too impacting to make the permanent default behavior. This set of changes makes the default behavior of make the old behavior (no second expansion). If you want second expansion, you must define the .SECONDEXPANSION: special target before the first target that needs it. This set of changes ONLY fixes explicit and static pattern rules to work like this. Implicit rules still have second expansion enabled all the time: I'll work on that next. Note that there is still a backward-incompatibility: now to get the old SysV behavior using $$@ etc. in the prerequisites list you need to set .SECONDEXPANSION: as well.
2005-08-31Try using POSIX::getcwd to find the working directory wherever it exists.Paul Smith1-0/+8
This should help the tests run more accurately on Windows (hopefully...)
