Say ‘rm ./*.o’ instead of ‘rm *.o’ to avoid undesirable failure
when a file name begins with ‘-’.

Emacs regular expressions forked from everyone else long ago.
This makes it official and should allow simplification later.
etags.c now uses the glibc regex API, falling back on a
Gnulib-supplied substitute lib/regex.c if necessary.
Emacs proper now uses its own regular expression module.
Although this patch may look dauntingly large, most of it
was generated automatically by admin/merge-gnulib
and contains an exact copy of the glibc regex source,
and the by-hand changes do not grow the Emacs source code.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Add regex.
(AVOIDED_MODULES): Add btowc, langinfo, lock, mbrtowc, mbsinit,
nl_langinfo, wchar, wcrtomb, wctype-h.
* lib-src/Makefile.in (regex-emacs.o): Remove; Gnulib does it now.
(etags_deps, etags_libs): Remove regex-emacs.o.
* lib-src/etags.c: Go back to including regex.h.
(add_regex): Use unsigned char translation array,
since glibc regex requires that.
* lib/Makefile.in (not_emacs_OBJECTS, for_emacs_OBJECTS): New macros.
(libegnu_a_OBJECTS): Use them, to avoid building e-regex.o.
* lib/gnulib.mk.in, m4/gnulib-comp.m4: Regenerate.
* lib/regcomp.c, lib/regex.c, lib/regex.h, lib/regex_internal.c:
* lib/regex_internal.h, lib/regexec.c, m4/builtin-expect.m4:
* m4/eealloc.m4, m4/glibc21.m4, m4/mbstate_t.m4, m4/regex.m4:
New files, copied from Gnulib.
* src/regex-emacs.h, src/conf_post.h:
(RE_TRANSLATE_TYPE, RE_TRANSLATE, RE_TRANSLATE_P):
Move from src/conf_post.h to src/regex-emacs.h,
so that they don’t interfere with compiling lib/regex.c.

Run admin/update-copyright.

Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November.  Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead.  Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP.  Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.

* lib/Makefile.in (clean): Remove *-t files.
(mostlyclean): Remove MOSTLYCLEANFILES that are not *-t files.
This removes files like lib/getopt.h that should be removed
even if this configuration did not need to build them.
(maintainer-clean): Remove TAGS here, not in distclean,
to be consistent with ../src/Makefile.in.

* configure.ac (AUTODEPEND_PARENTS): New var.
mkdir the dependency directories here, to simplify ‘make’.
Remove dependency files just before outputting Makefiles, so that
they are preserved if ‘configure’ exits early due to some other problem.
* lib/Makefile.in, lwlib/Makefile.in, oldXMenu/Makefile.in:
* src/Makefile.in: Adjust deps strategies to be similar, as follows:
(MKDEPDIR): Remove.  All uses removed.  This cuts down on the
number of processes spun off by ‘make’.
(clean mostlyclean): Remove $(DEPDIR) contents, not $(DEPDIR) itself.
(distclean): Remove $(DEPDIR) itself.
* lwlib/Makefile.in (all): Move to front, so that depdir includes
do not alter default action.

* lib/Makefile.in (srcdir): Define, as including
$(srcdir)/../nt/gnulib-cfg.mk needs that.

* lib/Makefile.in: Prepend $(srcdir) to ../nt/gnulib-cfg.mk,
to handle out-of-source builds if windows-nt.

This fixes some minor problems introduced in the recent switch to GNU
Make, discovered by further testing.  Without some of these changes
'make -j' would sometimes have race conditions caused by missing
dependencies.  (Bug#26100)
* .gitignore: Remove src/stamp-h.in, src/stamp-h1.
* Makefile.in ($(MAKEFILE_NAME)): Depend on configure, not
src/config.in, since the former's timestamp now represents
the latter's.
($(srcdir)/configure): Use plain ./autogen.sh, for consistency
with other autogen.sh invocations.
($(srcdir)/src/stamp-h.in):
Remove rule, as this file is no longer created.
* Makefile.in (top_distclean):
* src/Makefile.in (bootstrap-clean):
No need to remove stamp-h1, as that was an Automake byproduct
and Automake is no longer in use.
* lib/Makefile.in, src/Makefile.in:
(AUTOCONF_INPUTS, $(top_srcdir)/configure): Remove.
(../config.status, Makefile): Simplify by limiting dependencies
to files we care about and files in the repository, and by
using just one file to represent the timestamps on multiple
targets updated by the same rule.
* autogen.sh: Do not create or use src/stamp-h.in.
Instead, have 'find' test the two output files directly.

Emacs assumes GNU Make, and GNU Make has much of the functionality of
Automake built-in.  The Emacs build process uses Automake primarily
because Emacs uses some Gnulib code and Gnulib formerly required
Automake.  Now that Gnulib no longer requires Automake, Emacs can
stop using Automake and this should simplify Emacs maintenance
in the future (Bug#26100).  Although this patch may look long, most of
it is generated automatically: the changes to build-aux/config.guess,
build-aux/config.sub, build-aux/install-sh, and lib/gnulib.mk.in are
all done by admin/merge-gnulib.
* .gitignore: Remove build-aux/ar-lib, build-aux/compile,
build-aux/config.guess, build-aux/config.sub, build-aux/depcomp,
build-aux/install-sh, build-aux/missing, and lib/Makefile.in,
as they are no longer built by autogen.sh.
Add lib/gnulib.mk, as it is now built by 'configure'.
Remove nt/gnulib.mk, as it is no longer built by 'make'.
* INSTALL.REPO, README, admin/make-tarball.txt:
Remove mention of Automake.
* Makefile.in (AUTOCONF, AUTOMAKE, AUTOHEADER, ACLOCAL, lib)
(AUTOCONF_INPUTS, ACLOCAL_PATH, ACLOCAL_INPUTS)
($(srcdir)/aclocal.m4, AUTOMAKE_INPUTS)
($(srcdir)/lib/Makefile.in, $(srcdir)/nt/gnulib.mk, am--refresh):
Remove.
($(MAKEFILE_NAME)): Depend on lib/gnulib.mk.in.
($(srcdir)/configure, $(srcdir)/src/stamp-h.in)
($(srcdir)/src/config.in):
Use autogen.sh instead of doing it by hand.
* admin/merge-gnulib (AVOIDED_MODULES, avoided_flags)):
New vars, to simplify processing of avoided modules.
(GNULIB_TOOL_FLAGS): Move --avoid flags into AVOIDED_MODULES.
Add --gnu-make, and change makefile name to gnulib.mk.in.
Copy config.guess, config.sub, and install-sh too, since
Automake no longer does that for us.
* admin/notes/copyright:
* admin/update_autogen (genfiles):
Update list of files.
Remove hack for nt/gnulib.mk, a file that is no longer needed.
* autogen.sh (progs): Remove Automake.
(automake_min): Remove.
Build aclocal.m4 so that autoreconf need not use aclocal.
* build-aux/config.guess, build-aux/config.sub:
* build-aux/install-sh:
New files, copied from Gnulib.  These are now updated by
admin/merge-gnulib instead by autogen.sh.
* configure.ac (AC_PROG_MAKE_SET, ACLOCAL_PATH, AM_CONDITIONAL):
Remove.
(AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, AM_SILENT_RULES): Remove call.
(AC_PROG_CC_C_O): Call this instead of AM_PROG_CC_C_O.
(BUILDING_FOR_WINDOWSNT, HYBRID_MALLOC_LIB): Remove; no longer needed.
(--disable-silent-rules): New option, since Automake no longer
does this for us.
(AM_V, AM_DEFAULT_V): Set unconditionally, and do not bother
with AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE.
(AC_PROG_INSTALL): Add call.
(MAKEINFO): Do not bother with the 'missing' program.
(MAKEINFO, SYSTEM_TYPE): AC_SUBST.
(AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add Makefile, lib/gnulib.mk.
(SUBDIR_MAKEFILES): Remove duplication.
* lib/Makefile.am: Remove, replacing with:
* lib/Makefile.in: New file, with the old Makefile.am contents
and with the following changes:
(AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS, BUILT_SOURCES, CLEANFILES, EXTRA_DIST)
(MOSTLYCLEANDIRS, MOSTLYCLEANFILES, noinst_LIBRARIES, SUFFIXES)
(AM_CFLAGS, DEFAULT_INCLUDES, libegnu_a_SOURCES, libegnu_a_LIBADD)
(EXTRA_libegnu_a_SOURCES, libegnu_a_SHORTNAME, libegnu_a_CPPFLAGS):
Remove.
(VPATH, abs_top_builddir, top_builddir, top_srcdir, all, AM_V_AR)
(AM_V_CC, AM_V_GEN, AM_V_at, DEPDIR, DEPFLAGS, MKDEPDIR, SYSTEM_TYPE)
(libgnu.a, libegnu.a, ETAGS, $(ETAGS), tags, TAGS, clean)
(mostlyclean, distclean, bootstrap-clean, maintainer-clean):
New macros and rules, since Automake no longer does them.
Include ../nt/gnulib-cfg.mk if SYSTEM_TYPE is windows-nt,
instead of including ../nt/gnulib.mk if BUILDING_FOR_WINDOWS_NT.
Include dependency files if AUTO_DEPEND.
(ALL_CFLAGS, AUTOCONF_INPUTS, libgnu_a_OBJECTS, libegnu_a_OBJECTS):
New macros.
(bootstrap-clean): Depend on distclean, not maintainer-clean,
and remove gnulib.mk.
(AUTOCONF_INPUTS, $(top_srcdir)/configure, ../config.status, Makefile):
New macros and rules, copied from ../Makefile.in.
($(libegnu_a_OBJECTS), $(libgnu_a_OBJECTS)): Depend on BUILT_SOURCES.
(.c.o, e-%.o): New generic rules.
* lib/gnulib.mk: Remove.
* lib/gnulib.mk.in: New file, which is built by autogen.sh
and contains much of what used to be in lib/gnulib.mk.
* m4/gnulib-common.m4: Copy from gnulib.
* make-dist: Do not distribute build-aux/compile, build-aux/depcomp,
build-aux/missing, build-aux/ar-lib, lib/Makefile.am, nt/gnulib.mk,
nt/gnulib-modules-to-delete.cfg.  Distribute lib/Makefile.in,
lib/gnulib.mk.in, and nt/gnulib-cfg.mk instead.
* nt/Makefile.in (AM_V_GEN, am__v_GEN_, am__v_GEN_0)
(am__v_GEN_1, ${srcdir}/gnulib.mk): Remove.
* nt/gnulib-cfg.mk: New file, which supersedes ...
* nt/gnulib-modules-to-delete.cfg: ... this file, which is removed.
* src/Makefile.in (ACLOCAL_INPUTS): Remove.
(AUTOCONF_INPUTS): Merge ACLOCAL_INPUTS into it.
($(top_srcdir)/configure, ../config.status, config.in Makefile):
Defer to parent Makefile.
