[PATCHv3] gitweb: fill in missing parts of JavaScript minify support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



JavaScript minification was added to the git build system, but it was a
hidden away feature that did not play by all the rules.

This patch adds an ignore and clean rule to take care of minified
files belonging to gitweb. It also updates the gitweb INSTALL file to
mention the JavaScript usage and optional minification.

To make minification more accessible, a configure option is added to
enable minification without making the user edit the Makefiles directly.

This patch was named "Add ignore and clean rules for gitweb.min.js"
previously, but now I've squashed other stuff into it.

Changes since previous versions:
	- Changed patch name and added a commit message
	- Made ignore and clean rule use globs to be more
	  future friendly (other minified files)
	- Added configure script support for JSMIN
	- Added gitweb/INSTALL updates related to gitweb.js
	- Compacted Makefile code related to gitweb building
	  specifically related to gitweb.min.js generation

Nothing related to gitweb or git-instaweb breaks for me with
JSMIN enabled or disabled, but I'm not sure if I broke portability
by taking things out of the root level Makefile, there just
seemed to be a lot of redundant information there that was
handled by the Makefile in the gitweb directory.
