This is a new upstream release, with minor new features, bug fixes, and documentation improvements. An excerpt o= f the NEWS file since the previous release (1.7.2-1) is below. The 'time' command runs another program, then displays information about the resources used by that program, collected by the system while the program w= as running. You can select which information is reported and the format in whi= ch it is shown, or have 'time' save the information in a file instead of displayi= ng it on the screen. Andrew E. Schulman * Noteworthy changes in release 1.9 (2018-03-12) [stable] ** Improvements time now reports percent CPU usage for programs lasting less then 1 secon= d. previously, time would report '??%' if programs lasted less than 1 second. (adopted from Fedora). ** Changes in behaviour "time -p" no longers adds the "Command exited with non-zero status" messa= ge. This is a backward-incompatible change for better POSIX compliance. Many downstream distributions previously patched 'time' to behave this way (Debian added '-q', Fedora patched '-p'). * Noteworthy changes in release 1.8 (2017-11-07) [stable] ** Licensing First official release under GPLv3-or-later. Previous version (v1.7) was GPLv2-or-later. The code in the git repository has been updated to GPLv3-or-later in 2015 (in git-tagged version 1.7.1). ** New Features time supports new -q/--quiet option to suppresses abnormal program terminal (non-exit codes or signals). Modelled after Debian's https://bugs.debian.org/56853 . time now uses the following exit codes (same as GNU coreutils' env): 125 =3D Wrong usage or internal error prior to exec attempt. 126 =3D Program located, but not usable. 127 =3D Could not find program to exec. time now exits with code '128 + Signal number' when the program is terminated by a signal. Modelled after Debian's 'non-normal-exit' upstream patch, and behaves the same as GNU coreutils' timeout(1). time now reports MAX-RSS values correctly on modern systems (the old code base, last updated in 1996, incorrectly calculated pages/kilobytes and overestimated MAX-RSS). Modelled after Debian's https://bugs.debian.org/649402 . ** Improvements Use gnulib modules and build infrastructure. New tests infrastructure (make check). Portability improvements (e.g. detection of time.h, sys/resources.h, getrusage now delegated to gnulib). ******************************************************************* To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.
