Remove the $(GIT_VERSION) from $(SCRIPT_DEFINES). Now every time HEAD changes in a development copy we don't need to re-build the scripts and script libraries. This has not been needed since 2b9391bc675 (Makefile: do not replace @@GIT_VERSION@@ in shell scripts, 2012-06-20). On my setup this changes the re-making of 44 targets in a development copy where moved HEAD to 27. The $(GIT_VERSION) was seemingly left here by mistake or omission. We didn't need it since 2b9391bc675, but in the later e4dd89ab984 (Makefile: update scripts when build-time parameters change, 2012-06-20) it was added to SCRIPT_DEFINES. The two were part of the same series of patches, and given the summary in [1] and [2] it looks like this was probably a case of some earlier version of a later patch being combined with an updated earlier patch. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/20120619232231.GA6328@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ 2. https://lore.kernel.org/git/20120619232453.GB6496@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@xxxxxxxxx> --- Makefile | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index f52402b24d8..fdce392929b 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -2252,7 +2252,7 @@ command-list.h: $(wildcard Documentation/git*.txt) hook-list.h: generate-hooklist.sh Documentation/githooks.txt $(QUIET_GEN)$(SHELL_PATH) ./generate-hooklist.sh >$@ -SCRIPT_DEFINES = $(SHELL_PATH_SQ):$(DIFF_SQ):$(GIT_VERSION):\ +SCRIPT_DEFINES = $(SHELL_PATH_SQ):$(DIFF_SQ):\ $(localedir_SQ):$(NO_CURL):$(USE_GETTEXT_SCHEME):$(SANE_TOOL_PATH_SQ):\ $(gitwebdir_SQ):$(PERL_PATH_SQ):$(SANE_TEXT_GREP):$(PAGER_ENV):\ $(perllibdir_SQ) -- 2.33.1.1494.g88b39a443e1
