Subject: Ensure that split --lines=N and --bytes=N work for N=2^32.
X-Git-Tag: v5.0.1~776
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c3e1712629f8cadb2ab937dfffbe249b60b173cd;p=thirdparty%2Fcoreutils.git

Ensure that split --lines=N and --bytes=N work for N=2^32.
Currently (coreutils-5.0.1) split --line-bytes=M fails
with `invalid number of bytes' for M=2^32 or larger.  Test it.
