+
+ Change 'split' to conform to POSIX. It now accepts an -a or
+ --suffix-length option, and refuses to generate more files
+ than there are suffixes.
+
+ * NEWS, doc/coreutils.texi: Document this.
+ * src/split.c: Include "dirname.h".
+ (outbase): Now a global var.
+ (outfile_end): Remove.
+ (suffix_length): New var.
+ (shortopts, longopts, main): Add -a or --suffix-length.
+ (next_file_name): Implement -a. Do not extend the suffix length.
+ Check for file names that are too long.
+ (main): Move outfile initialization to next_file_name.
+
+ * src/split.c (shortopts): Remove -v (a typo).
