An individual developer can add '-Wno-deprecated-declarations' to CFLAGS to suppress these warnings, however, that's pretty much a sledge hammer which would impact deprecations from all included headers, not just Apple's. For this reason, we probably wouldn't want to make this the default. The potentially lesser evil would be this small patch (minus Gmail whitespace damage) which disables the deprecation warnings only for Apple's headers: ----- >8 ----- diff --git a/git-compat-util.h b/git-compat-util.h index 400e921..709e84f 100644 --- a/git-compat-util.h +++ b/git-compat-util.h @@ -211,6 +211,8 @@ extern char *gitbasename(char *); #endif #ifndef NO_OPENSSL +#define __AVAILABILITY_MACROS_USES_AVAILABILITY 0 +#define MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_6 #include <openssl/ssl.h> #include <openssl/err.h> #endif ----- >8 ----- It's still mildly heavy-handed, in that it could silence legitimate Apple deprecations, but it does give us a clean build with little fuss. An alternative would be to relegate these #defines to the Darwin section of the Makefile if placing them in git-compat-util.h seems too invasive. Considering that Mac OS X is now at 10.10 and these deprecations commenced with Mac OS X 10.7 in July 2011 (3.5 years ago), and Apple still has not provided drop-in CommonCrypto equivalents, it seems unlikely that they will do so any time soon. Consequently, suppressing these otherwise unavoidable warnings may be the best we can do. I'm willing to formalize and submit this as a proper patch if it's not considered too disgusting by the powers-that-be. -- To unsubscribe from this list: 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
