https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D237538 --- Comment #7 from commit-hook@freebsd.org --- A commit references this bug: Author: kevans Date: Wed Sep 25 02:37:42 UTC 2019 New revision: 352668 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/352668 Log: cron: add log suppression and mail suppression for successful runs This commit adds two new extensions to crontab, ported from OpenBSD: - -n: suppress mail on succesful run - -q: suppress logging of command execution The -q option appears decades old, but -n is relatively new. The original proposal by Job Snijder can be found here [1], and gives very convincing reasons for inclusion in base. This patch is a nearly identical port of OpenBSD cron for -q and -n features. It is written to follow existing conventions and style of the existing codebase. Example usage: # should only send email, but won't show up in log * * * * * -q date # should not send email * * * * * -n date # should not send email or log * * * * * -n -q date # should send email because of ping failure * * * * * -n -q ping -c 1 5.5.5.5 [1]: https://marc.info/?l=3Dopenbsd-tech&m=3D152874866117948&w=3D2 PR: 237538 Submitted by: Naveen Nathan <freebsd_t.lastninja.net> Reviewed by: bcr (manpages) MFC after: 1 week Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D20046 Changes: head/usr.sbin/cron/cron/cron.h head/usr.sbin/cron/cron/do_command.c head/usr.sbin/cron/cron/popen.c head/usr.sbin/cron/crontab/crontab.5 head/usr.sbin/cron/lib/entry.c --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
