* src/patch.c (main): Instead of looking at the SHA hashes to detect
concatenated git-style patches, detect when a file to write to is already in
the output queue.
* tests/concat-git-diff: Add create/delete tests.
* src/patch.c (output_file): Create new files immediately. Document why
things are implemented that way.
* tests/concat-git-diff: Fix glitch in test case.
* src/patch.c (main): Remember the "before" SHA1 hashes of git-style patches;
the same patch will always use the same "before" SHA1 for a specific file.
Try to recognize concatenated patches based on that.
* tests/concat-git-diff: New test case.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add new test case.
* tests/copy-rename, tests/criss-cross, tests/file-modes,
tests/mixed-patch-types, tests/quoted-filenames: Add missing index lines in the
"dif --git" test cases: We will use some of them for consistency checks soon.
Bug reported by Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>.
* src/patch.c (output_file_later): Fix case where the output file is identical
with the input file (and to == NULL).
Failing when trying to patch read-only files causes various users of patch to
break. Instead, warn by default and introduce a command line option for
choosing a different behavior.
* patch.man: Describe the new behavior and command-line option.
* src/patch.c (read_only_behavior): New variable.
(main): Implement the new behavior.
(longopts): Add the new --read-only option.
(option_help): Describe the new behavior.
(get_some_switches): Recognize the new --read-only option.
In git-style patch files, all patches refer to the initial state of the input
files; files cannot be modified more than once. Implement these semantics by
creating all output files once all patches in the patch file have been
processed.
* src/patch.c (init_files_to_output, output_files): Add prototypes.
(main): Remember which type of patch file we are processing. Initialize the
output files list. Output files of git-style patches once all patches have
been read, or when from git-style to normal patches.
(file_to_output): New struct.
(files_to_output): List of the files to output.
(output_file, output_file_now, output_file_later): Either queue a file for
deletion, remember to output a file later (git-style), or output the file
immediately (normal).
(dispose_file_to_output, init_files_to_output, output_files,
forget_output_files): New functions.
(gl_list_clear): Should be provided by gnulib but isn't.
(cleanup): Clean up any left-over temporary output files as well.
* tests/Makefile-am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove criss-cross; this test case works now.
* tests/mixed-patch-types: Patch files that change from normal to git-style, or
from git-style to normal.
* tests/symlinks: Remove test case which deletes and then recreates a symlink:
all patches in a git-style input file must refer to the "before" state; the
test case is invalid.
* src/util.h (enum file_attributes): Add FA_XATTRS flag for extended
attributes.
* src/patch.c (main): Use set_file_attributes() even when the infile doesn't
exist: it may still set the file time (FA_TIMES). Omit all other FA_ flags if
infile doesn't exist. Otherwise, add FA_XATTRS as well.
* src/util.c (set_file_attributes): Only copy extended attributes if FA_XATTRS
is set. Avoid using st where it may be undefined.
* tests/preserve-mode-and-timestamp: Add file create test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Don't use $(SHELL) here
to ensure the test scripts are run through it; instead, ...
(LOG_COMPILER): ... use it here.
* src/pch.c (another_hunk): Rather than asserting(C), issue the
"replacement text or line numbers mangled ..." diagnostic when !C.
* tests/mangled-numbers-abort: New test for the above.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS: Mention it.

With these changes, "make sc_prohibit_test_minus_ao" almost passes.
Uses of "test -o" remain.
Note: unchecked uses of test -ot/-nt also remain.

* tests/merge: Likewise.
* tests/symlinks: Likewise.
* tests/test-lib.sh: Likewise.
* bootstrap.conf: Remove trailing blanks.
* tests/reject-format: Define a dummy, empty variable, and use it in
here-doc to protect required trailing blanks from accidental removal.

(intuit_diff_type, best_name): Use name_is_valid() here.
(strip_leading_slashes): Remove name validation tests from here.
* tests/bad-filenames: Add more tests for covering more of the
file name guessing corner cases in intuit_diff_type(), update the
existing tests.
* NEWS: Update.

seekable if a filename is given (-i).

This addresses CVE-2010-4651, reported by Jakub Wilk.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2010-4651
