I'm hoping to convert the Autoconf repository to git (while still providing a CVS read-only mirror); right now, the main holdup is waiting for gnulib to pioneer the way in setting up git-cvsserver on Savannah: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2007-09/msg00088.html In the meantime, does anyone know the name of the person behind the following user-ids, each of which has made commits to autoconf CVS but which left no ChangeLog entry and no name in the CVS log for their actions? The various commits were all years ago, and touched either config.{guess,sub} or {make- stds,standards}.texi. Also listed is the date of the most recent commit by the uid in question. cks 1994-09-22 erich 1997-07-16 gnu 1997-07-04 hassey 1993-02-10 ian 1998-01-28 sac 1993-04-30 wood 1993-04-09 [Oh, did I mention how awesome git is? I grabbed an rsync-clone of the CVS repository (22 megabytes), then did git-cvsimport with an author map for the uid mappings that I do have (only 10 megabytes in the bare .git directory). Then the above list was obtained by 'git log --pretty=short | grep Author: | sort -u'; and the date of the most recent commit for a given $uid is as easy as 'git log --pretty=medium | grep -A1 $uid | head -n2'. Try finding the same information quickly with CVS.] -- Eric Blake _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
