(AT_INIT): Pre-extract test groups into separate files.
(AT_CLEANUP): Source pre-extracted file instead of calling at_func_test.
Remove at-test-source files together with the $at_group_dir.
* tests/autotest.at (Long test source lines): New test.
":;{" shorthand as in previous patch.
2007-11-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* doc/autoconf.texi (Limitations of Builtins): Document problem
with { ... } a bit more clearly. Suggest ":;{" as a shorthand
for the workaround.
* lib/m4sugar/Makefile.am (version.m4): Detect 'echo' failure.
Use ":;{" shorthand.
* tests/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/package.m4): Likewise.
* tests/torture.at (Configuring subdirectories, Deep Package):
In the --help* tests in read-only trees, make `.' temporarily
writable again for the `stderr' file, and ignore errors due to
the attempt to write configure.lineno.
Report by Patrick Welche.
* tests/Makefile.am (package.m4): Adjust target.
Don't redirect directly to $@.
(CLEANFILES): Add package.m4.
($(TESTSUITE)): Depend on just-built package.m4, not the one
in $(srcdir).
When running $(AUTOTEST), search "." before searching $(srcdir).
* tests/Makefile.am (distclean-generic): Replace the default,
automake-provided rule with an identical one, but with an additional
dependency on distclean-local. Simply adding the dependency would
cause automake not to emit the rule at all.
* BUGS: Building with -jN works, now.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (_m4_version_unletter): Also treat - as a
component separator.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Number processing Macros)
<m4_version_compare>: Document this change.

Now, each unofficial build has a version "number" like 2.61a-19-58dd,
which indicates that it is built using the 19th change set
(in _some_ repository) following the "v2.61a" tag, and that 58dd
is a prefix of the commit SHA1.
* build-aux/git-version-gen: New file.
* configure.ac: Run it to set the version.
(AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Don't check NEWS here.
* Makefile.am (dist-hook): Arrange so that .version appears only
in distribution tarballs, never in a checked-out repository.
* .gitignore: Add .version here, too. Just in case.
* tests/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/package.m4): Depend on Makefile,
not configure.ac, now that the version number changes automatically.
Ensure that $(VERSION) is up to date for dist-related targets.
* GNUmakefile: Arrange to rerun autoconf, if the version reported by
git-version-gen doesn't match $(VERSION), but only for dist targets.
* aclocal.m4: Remove.
* configure: Remove.
* Makefile.in: Remove, along with all other Makefile.in in subdirs.
* .gitignore: Add aclocal.m4, configure and Makefile.in. Sort.
* README-hacking: New file: how to build from just-checked-out sources.
* tests/torture.at (Deep Package): Do not add `.' to $PATH
unnecessarily. Do not try running `/bin/sh configure' with a
configure script to be found in $PATH, if the shell does not do
this resolution. Fixes test failure on FreeBSD.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (Defaults): Validate input ranges ...
<at_func_validate_ranges>: ... using this new function.
* tests/autotest.at (Keywords and ranges): Test invalid ranges.
Test --list with ranges and keywords.
(Banners): Remove one now-failing test.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (BANNERS): New named diversion.
(TESTS_END): Diversion no longer used.
(AT_INIT) <at_func_banner, BANNERS>: Factor all banners into a
shell function, which prints only as needed, using an associative
array of banner text from a special diversion.
<PARSE_ARGS_END>: No longer need awk to find banners.
<TESTS>: Banners are no longer processed by main driver loop, so
we no longer need case statement.
(AT_BANNER): Rewrite to populate new diversion.
(AT_SETUP): Each test invokes its own banner. No output is needed
to the TESTS diversion.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Writing Testsuites): Document slight
semantics change.
* tests/autotest.at (AT_BANNERS): Enhance test.
* NEWS: Document AT_BANNER.

(_m4_append_uniq): New helper macro.
(m4_append_uniq_w): New macro.
* lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_TESTED, AT_KEYWORDS): Fix
duplication bug by using new macro.
(AT_INIT) <at_tested>: Restore newline separators. Invoke tested
programs with stdin redirected, so programs that don't
understand --version won't try to behave interactively.

* lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (_AS_LN_S_PREPARE): Avoid errors when `.'
is not writable, use 'cp -p' in this case, in the hope that it
will not actually be needed. Still try removing files, in case
of other write errors.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (_AC_INIT_SRCDIR): For ac_confdir,
use $as_myself, not $0.

exist, try again in the the source tree. This change assumes
that the subpackage configure script is capable of running
--help=recursive in the source tree.

Adjust tests to expose both issues, also try invocation as
`sh configure ...' and plain `configure ...' with PATH adjusted.
