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? One day you want 15, then 13, then 12 :) Make up your mind!!!!! :) :) :) It's not a problem and is a one line change. I'll submit (yet another ;)) MR to drop this back to 12. _______________________________________________ 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
