Not only Fedora (and Fedora derivatives) use RPMs. Contrary to deb packages and Debian there aren't, I think, many RPM packages with designed package maintainer; the development style for deb and for rpm packages is a bit different. Besides, git.spec generated by git Makefile from git.spec.in isn't distribution specific. And it allows me to install git in a packaging system on and old machine with old Aurox 11.1 (Polish distribution, no longer active, based on Fedora Core 4), with glibc-2.3.5-10.3 via "rpmbuild --rebuild" from .src.rpm. I'd rather _not_ lose this ability. -- Jakub Narebski Poland ShadeHawk on #git -- 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
