I've only played little with this patch, but overall I like most of the changes. I would, however, want to look into making the dependency on autoconf optional (like it is for git) and avoid using automake at all. It would make the autoconf.sh bootstrap script obsolete, since the Makefile can just take care of it, and it would keep the build system simple. So the idea is for configure to also generate a Makefile.config that can be sourced by the Makefile. Then of course inclusion of the config.h file should depend on some -DHAVE_CONFIG_H flag for the compiler. What do you think? You are of course welcome to come up with a patch for this proposal, but else I would like to get your permission/sign-off to include the configure.ac script and the tig.c changes you made. -- Jonas Fonseca - 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
