Since the code is identical when just checking if a utility is present on
the system or not, we can factorize it.
Signed-off-by: Quentin Casasnovas <quentin.casasnovas@oracle.com>
* src/util.c (create_backup): Document patch's backup file logic.
(create_backup, create_backup_copy): Add a flag to remember the backup
file; use when a patch deletes a file.
(move_file, copy_file): Better error messages.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Remove remember-backup-files-2.
* tests/remember-backup-files: Add tests from remember-backup-files-2.
* tests/symlinks: Add a symlink backup file test.

still require a diff that understands "-u".

Make the sed utility optional.
* src/patch.c (main): Refuse to patch read-only files, or at least warn
when patching such files with --force or --batch.
* patch.man: Document the changed behavior.
* tests/read-only-files: Split read-only file test case off from
tests/remember-backup-files.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add new test case.
