Please sync moreutils 0.29 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

[James Westby]

Binary package hint: moreutils

Hi,

Please merge moreutils. The Ubuntu diff is a transitional
package for upgrade from gutsy, and so can be dropped
now Hardy is released.

Thanks,

James

moreutils (0.29) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add ifne, contributed by Javier Merino.
  * sponge, ifne: Ensure that suspending/resuming doesn't
    result in partial writes of the data, by using fwrite()
    rather than write().
  * sponge: Handle large data sizes by using a temp file rather than by
    consuming arbitrary amounts of memory. Patch by Brock Noland.
  * ts: Allow both -r and a format to be specified, to parse dates and output
    in a specified format.
  * ts: Fix bug in timezone regexp.

moreutils (0.28) unstable; urgency=low

  * Moved to a git repository.
  * vidir: Applied patch from Stefan Fritsch (one part of #412176):
    - Check for control characters (especially newlines) in filenames
      and error out, since this can greatly confuse the editor or vidir.
    - If the source of a rename does not exist (and thus the rename will fail
      anyway), vidir should not move an existing target file to a tmpfile.
    - If a directory is renamed, vidir should take that into account when
      renaming files in this directory.
    - If a directory name is passed as name/ to vidir, vidir should not
      add second slash after the name.
  * vidir: Add support for unlinking directories. To recursivly delete
    a directory and its contents, pipe find to vidir, and delete the directory
    and its contents in the editor. Closes: #412176
  * Add example to man page about recursive modification of directories.
    Closes: #390099
