2017-06-28add -v to SYNOPSIS and STANDARDS;Jason McIntyre
2017-06-27fix a few lines of unusual lengthTed Unangst
2017-06-27add a -v verbose flag to cp, mv, and rm. useful for monitoring progress,Ted Unangst
and present on several other systems. some ok, some less ok. from Job Snijders
2016-10-14delete useless setlocale(3);Ingo Schwarze
noticed by Jan Stary <hans at stare dot cz>; return from main while here; feedback and OK tb@, OK martijn@
2016-06-28revert previous. better fix applied to fts_open.Ted Unangst

ok benno deraadt
2016-04-15don't allow removal of /. more robust approach involving stat this time.Ted Unangst
posix uses the language "resolves to the root directory" in this case. ok millert

rm -f ""
2015-10-11Don't allow "rm -rf /"Daniel Dickman
Patch from Theo Buehler who was inspired by watching Bryan Cantrill in BSD Now 103. Minor tweak from me to turn the complained variables into flags instead of counters. "i think it's ok" tedu@ "this isn't 1980 anymore" deraadt@ ok millert@
2015-10-09Change all tame callers to namechange to pledge(2).Theo de Raadt
2015-10-08the -P flag overwrites files, so it needs tame "stdio rpath wpath cpath".Theo de Raadt
the remaining code paths can use tame "stdio rpath cpath". One again, the "cpath" request says a path-based system call will be used to "change" filesystem pathname layout, for instance any of O_CREAT, symlink, rename, unlink...
2015-01-16Replace <sys/param.h> with <limits.h> and other less dirty headers whereTheo de Raadt
possible. Annotate <sys/param.h> lines with their current reasons. Switch to PATH_MAX, NGROUPS_MAX, HOST_NAME_MAX+1, LOGIN_NAME_MAX, etc. Change MIN() and MAX() to local definitions of MINIMUM() and MAXIMUM() where sensible to avoid pulling in the pollution. These are the files confirmed through binary verification. ok guenther, millert, doug (helped with the verification protocol)
2014-05-25- it seems our notes that posix require rm to behave like rmdir for directoriesJason McIntyre
is plain wrong: remove it. the note in posix spec is misleading, to be fair - most of the rest of notes in STANDARDS are really historical notes (admittedly caused by the standards i guess) so move them into HISTORY. debatable, yes, but leaves STANDARDS consistent. HISTORY is a hodge podge anyway, by neccesity. - while there, fix a sentence splice in BUGS sobrado agrees with the removal of the rmdir note; millert oks the diff

2012-09-04one random overwrite is sufficient, after some discussion on techTed Unangst
2012-06-18Polish the rm -rP turd: if the fts_* routines have lstat()'ed thePhilip Guenthe
directory entry then use the struct stat from that instead of doing it again, and skip the rm_overwrite() call if fts_read() indicated that the entry couldn't be a regular file. ok millert@
2012-06-18Fix potential symlink race condition in "rm -P" by adding a checkTodd C. Miller
that the file we have opened is the one we expected. Also open in non-blocking mode to avoid a potential hang with FIFOs. Reported by Radoslaw A. Zarzynski. Fix adapted from NetBSD. OK guenther@
2010-10-04- rearrange STANDARDS slightly to read betterJason McIntyre
- remove a stray .Pp
2010-09-03add an EXIT STATUS section for /bin;Jason McIntyre
2009-10-28rcsid[] and sccsid[] and copyright[] are essentially unmaintained (andTheo de Raadt
unmaintainable). these days, people use source. these id's do not provide any benefit, and do hurt the small install media (the 33,000 line diff is essentially mechanical) ok with the idea millert, ok dms
