The above clearly explains what is written in the patch text, but the proposed log message does not explain what ../THIS_IS_MSYSGIT used to guard and why now we can remove it. > The MSYS2 is currently used into the MinGW so we can get that part > running directly without any conditionals required. > > Signed-off-by: Harshil-Jani <harshiljani2002@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > config.mak.uname | 85 ++++++++++++++++++++---------------------------- > 1 file changed, 35 insertions(+), 50 deletions(-) Thanks. It always is good to see more lines go away ;-) but these two patches need to be explained a bit better and supported by folks who have been active on Windows port of the project. > diff --git a/config.mak.uname b/config.mak.uname > index 377667c4bbc..965ec530837 100644 > --- a/config.mak.uname > +++ b/config.mak.uname > @@ -623,6 +623,9 @@ ifeq ($(uname_S),NONSTOP_KERNEL) > SHELL_PATH = /usr/coreutils/bin/bash > endif > ifeq ($(uname_S),MINGW) > + ifeq ($(shell expr "$(uname_R)" : '1\.'),2) > + $(error "Building with MSys is no longer supported") > + endif > pathsep = ; > HAVE_ALLOCA_H = YesPlease > NO_PREAD = YesPlease > @@ -676,61 +679,43 @@ ifeq ($(uname_S),MINGW) > RC = windres -O coff > NATIVE_CRLF = YesPlease > X = .exe > -ifneq (,$(wildcard ../THIS_IS_MSYSGIT)) > - htmldir = doc/git/html/ > - prefix = > + # MSys2 > + prefix = /usr/ > + # Enable DEP > + BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--nxcompat > + # Enable ASLR (unless debugging) > + ifneq (,$(findstring -O,$(filter-out -O0 -Og,$(CFLAGS)))) > + BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--dynamicbase > + endif > + ifeq (MINGW32,$(MSYSTEM)) > + prefix = /mingw32 > + HOST_CPU = i686 > + BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--pic-executable,-e,_mainCRTStartup > + endif > + ifeq (MINGW64,$(MSYSTEM)) > + prefix = /mingw64 > + HOST_CPU = x86_64 > + BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--pic-executable,-e,mainCRTStartup > + else > + COMPAT_CFLAGS += -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T > + BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--large-address-aware > + endif > + CC = gcc > + COMPAT_CFLAGS += -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=0 -DDETECT_MSYS_TTY \ > + -fstack-protector-strong > + EXTLIBS += -lntdll > INSTALL = /bin/install > - EXTLIBS += /mingw/lib/libz.a > INTERNAL_QSORT = YesPlease > HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H = YesPlease > - NO_GETTEXT = YesPlease > - NO_PYTHON = YesPlease > - COMPAT_CFLAGS += -D__USE_MINGW_ACCESS > -else > - ifneq ($(shell expr "$(uname_R)" : '1\.'),2) > - # MSys2 > - prefix = /usr/ > - # Enable DEP > - BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--nxcompat > - # Enable ASLR (unless debugging) > - ifneq (,$(findstring -O,$(filter-out -O0 -Og,$(CFLAGS)))) > - BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--dynamicbase > - endif > - ifeq (MINGW32,$(MSYSTEM)) > - prefix = /mingw32 > - HOST_CPU = i686 > - BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--pic-executable,-e,_mainCRTStartup > - endif > - ifeq (MINGW64,$(MSYSTEM)) > - prefix = /mingw64 > - HOST_CPU = x86_64 > - BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--pic-executable,-e,mainCRTStartup > - else > - COMPAT_CFLAGS += -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T > - BASIC_LDFLAGS += -Wl,--large-address-aware > - endif > - CC = gcc > - COMPAT_CFLAGS += -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=0 -DDETECT_MSYS_TTY \ > - -fstack-protector-strong > - EXTLIBS += -lntdll > - INSTALL = /bin/install > - INTERNAL_QSORT = YesPlease > - HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H = YesPlease > - USE_GETTEXT_SCHEME = fallthrough > - USE_LIBPCRE = YesPlease > - USE_NED_ALLOCATOR = YesPlease > - ifeq (/mingw64,$(subst 32,64,$(prefix))) > - # Move system config into top-level /etc/ > - ETC_GITCONFIG = ../etc/gitconfig > - ETC_GITATTRIBUTES = ../etc/gitattributes > - endif > - else > - COMPAT_CFLAGS += -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO > - NO_CURL = YesPlease > - NO_PYTHON = YesPlease > + USE_GETTEXT_SCHEME = fallthrough > + USE_LIBPCRE = YesPlease > + USE_NED_ALLOCATOR = YesPlease > + ifeq (/mingw64,$(subst 32,64,$(prefix))) > + # Move system config into top-level /etc/ > + ETC_GITCONFIG = ../etc/gitconfig > + ETC_GITATTRIBUTES = ../etc/gitattributes > endif > endif > -endif > ifeq ($(uname_S),QNX) > COMPAT_CFLAGS += -DSA_RESTART=0 > EXPAT_NEEDS_XMLPARSE_H = YesPlease
