Hi,
Excuse me if I resend my patch, but maybe it got lost?...
In my opinion, -daystart should have effect on -{a,c,m}time only. Is it
correct?

Hi,
I've tried to fix the bug referenced to at
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?23065. In my opinion, -daystart should have
effect on -{a,c,m}time only. Of course, if my solution is correct, the man and
info pages have to be updated as well.

Hi,
there seems to be a bug in the function parse_samefile() in find/parser.c... if
I am not mistaken, after the call to collect_arg_stat_info(), argv[*arg_ptr]
becomes NULL. I enclose a little patch to fix this problem.

Please excuse me, and thank you for the remark.

I have tried to follow most of your suggestions. Please excuse me for not
adding error checks in th
piece of software as findutils is... and moreover I would be
glad to bring some little collaboration to the GNU project.
As to the documentation and the regression tests, I have not yet worked on
them, but surely will in the next days.
Thank you again,

except that there is no need for find to fork a new process
for every file to check. I have implemented the feature by
incorporating code from GNU cmp. Of course, my patch is still
in an experimental state, hence I would greatly appreciate any
suggestions or help.
Thanks in advance,
Roberto
