Momentum appears to have stalled on this portability patch set, but I received a lot of great feed back on restructuring and tweaking, the results of which follow. If there's anything else I can do to help the adoption of some or all of these patches into upstream please don't hesitate to ask. There are no new changes in this v5 patchset, and the additional 2 patches in the series over the last submission is purely an artifact of the restructuring based on feedback. So, as I said before: Here are the portability patches we needed at TWW to enable git-1.7.1 to compile and run on all of the wide range of Unix machines we support. These patches apply to the git-1.7.1 release, and address all of the feedback from the previous four times I posted them to this list. With the exception of a hand-full of test failures outside of Linux and Solaris8+, git now compiles and passes all tests on the following architectures: Solaris 2.6/SPARC Solaris 7/SPARC Solaris 8/SPARC Solaris 9/SPARC Solaris 10/SPARC Solaris 10/Intel HP-UX 10.20/PA HP-UX 11.00/PA HP-UX 11.11/PA HP-UX 11.23/PA HP-UX 11.23/IA HP-UX 11.31/PA HP-UX 11.31/IA AIX 5.1 AIX 5.2 AIX 5.3 AIX 6.1 Tru64 UNIX 5.1 IRIX 6.5 RHEL 3/x86 RHEL 3/amd64 RHEL 4/x86 RHEL 4/amd64 RHEL 5/x86 RHEL 5/amd64 SLES 10/x86 SLES 10/amd64 Cheers, -- Gary V.
