Dear diary, on Sat, Jun 24, 2006 at 10:33:52AM CEST, I got a letter where Junio C Hamano <junkio@xxxxxxx> said that... > The reason it failed? Well, it could not find Git.pm because > the changes to fmt-merge-msg was done for distros not for people > who install under their home directories. I don't understand what are you trying to say here... > Now, I am quite unhappy about the situation (and it is not your > fault). "git pull" is something almost everybody uses, and > having the series means they would need to make sure whereever > Git.pm is installed is on their PERL5LIB as things currently > stand. ...because well, they do: $(patsubst %.perl,%,$(SCRIPT_PERL)) : % : %.perl rm -f $@ $@+ sed -e '1s|#!.*perl\(.*\)|#!$(PERL_PATH_SQ)\1 -I'"$$(make -s -C perl instlibdir)"'|' \ -e 's/@@GIT_VERSION@@/$(GIT_VERSION)/g' \ $@.perl >$@+ chmod +x $@+ mv $@+ $@ (This is also why I was a bit confused by your make test patch - it does not "fix" anything per se since no tests directly use Git.pm.) -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ A person is just about as big as the things that make them angry. - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
