[PATCH] Makefile: add a DEVOPTS flag to get pedantic compilation

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

 



In the interest of code hygiene, make it easier to compile Git with the
flag -pedantic.

Pure pedantic compilation results in one warning per use of the
translation macro `N_`, therefore also disable the parenthesising of
i18n strings with -DUSE_PARENS_AROUND_GETTEXT_N=0 to show only real
warnings.

This is the convenience knob for all developers that led to the series
bb/pedantic[1]. It does not depend on this series, though.
