Unfortunately, the output of the two slightly differ: 'git ls-files' prints 'abspath.c advice.c alias.c ...' why 'find' prints './upload-pack.c ./unpack-trees.c ./gpg-interface.c ...'. Now, while the order of files doesn't matter, the './' prefix does, because: > +COCCI_SOURCES = $(filter-out $(UPSTREAM_SOURCES),$(FIND_C_SOURCES)) Here the paths/patterns in UPSTREAM_SOURCES don't have that './' prefix, and thus won't match and won't filter out any of the upstream files that they are supposed to. IOW, if someone runs 'make coccicheck' on a system without Git installed, then Coccinelle will check all upstream sources as well, and will e.g. suggest using COPY_ARRAY in 'compat/regex/regexec.c'. Now, running 'make coccicheck' on a git.git clone without Git installed might look like quite a pathological case on the first sight, but I would argue that it is not that pathological: e.g. consider someone running the recent Coccinelle version in a small-ish Docker image containing just enough to run 'make coccicheck', but not Git. (yeah, you guessed right, I am that someone ;) I don't know how to convince 'find' to omit that './' prefix from each listed file, and in a portable way at that. Piping its output through 'sed' or even 'cut' easily takes care of it, though. > %.cocci.patch: %.cocci $(COCCI_SOURCES) > @echo ' ' SPATCH $<; \ > -- > 2.23.0.248.g3a9dd8fb08 >
