From: Don Zickus on gitlab.com https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1757#note_948427545 It definitely depends on the repo. I think I had so more garbage that it inflated things. 'git gc' removed enough junk that my 'git log --oneline' is down to 12. Looking into this more. SPECBUILD uses PREBUILD. PREBUILD is based on MARKER which is based on MERGE_HEAD with upstream. The point of SPECBUILD is to have a sha to describe upstream merge base. The argument becomes if upstream relies on 12, then that should good enough to use as a description in SPECBUILD. Now the user's local enviornment may change but it should be rare?? In my case I can get away with 6 as my minimum merge base MARKER (for uniqueness) (' --abbrev=4' but shows 6). So I guess I can logically convince myself that 12 is fine by me. @prarit thoughts? _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list -- kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kernel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
