This is to announce grep-2.14, a stable release.
It is unusual to make a new release after so few changes, but it
is even more unusual to discover that a command like grep -i '^$'
can malfunction. It could report a match even though there was none.
There have been 17 commits by 2 people in the 7 weeks since 2.13.
See the NEWS below for a brief summary.
Thanks to everyone who has contributed!
The following people contributed changes to this release:
Jim Meyering (12)
Paul Eggert (5)
Jim [on behalf of the grep maintainers]

Here is the GNU grep home page:
http://gnu.org/s/grep/
For a summary of changes and contributors, see:
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=3Dgrep.git;a=3Dshortlog;h=3Dv2.14
or run this command from a git-cloned grep directory:
git shortlog v2.13..v2.14
To summarize the 72 gnulib-related changes, run these commands
From=20a git-cloned grep directory:
git checkout v2.14
git submodule summary v2.13
Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]:
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grep/grep-2.14.tar.xz
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grep/grep-2.14.tar.xz.sig
Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth:
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/grep/grep-2.14.tar.xz
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/grep/grep-2.14.tar.xz.sig
[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:
gpg --verify grep-2.14.tar.xz.sig
If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 7FD9FCCB000BEEEE
and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
Autoconf 2.69.19-1bb10
Automake 1.12a
Gnulib v0.0-7573-ga451aa0

NEWS
* Noteworthy changes in release 2.14 (2012-08-20) [stable]
** Bug fixes
grep -i '^$' could exit 0 (i.e., report a match) in a multi-byte locale,
even though there was no match, and the command generated no output.
E.g., seq 2 | LC_ALL=3Den_US.utf8 grep -il '^$' would mistakenly print
"(standard input)". Related, seq 9 | LC_ALL=3Den_US.utf8 grep -in '^$'
would print "2:4:6:8:10:12:14:16" and exit 0. Now it prints nothing
and exits with status of 1. [bug introduced in grep-2.6]
'grep' no longer falsely reports text files as being binary on file
systems that compress contents or that store tiny contents in metadata.
