Good morning Mike,
nice to see you alive early in the morning!

use either the "1.20.1-bugfix" branch for diffing against files that in
the current state or (better at the moment) the "gpm2" branch.
To explain why and how and so on:
- 1.20.1-bugfix is thought to make a new stable release
This branch shculd always contain something that I can git-pull,
build and compile
- gpm2 is thought to be the long-term replacement for gpm
The gpm2 branch is a real development branch
To build gpm2 I heavily need to cleanup the current gpm. So one part was
to splitoff gpm.c, gpn.c and startup.c.
The next part is splitting of mice.c, which will take some time and will
happen in the gpm2 branch, too.
So the short answer is:
Currently diff against the gpm2 branch, until the changes are merged
back to 1.20.1-bugfix.
As soon as 1.99.2.1 is confirmed to be working the changes will be
merged into 1.20.1-bugfix.

Sorry, wrong filepermissions, should be fixed permanently now:
setfacl -m d:g:git-gpm:rwx,g:git-gpm:rwx,d:m:rwx,m:rwx -R /home/server/git/gpm

The master is currently not in use by me. As soon as 1.20.3 is released
I will cleanup the branches to look like that:
master: development state of gpm-1.x, does not need to compile
gpm-1-stable: contains gpm-1.x versions that compile and run
gpm-2-dev: development state of gpm-2.x, does not need to compile
The best thing would be, if you create a branch named "gentoo" or
"mike" (which fits better for you) and push your changes to that
branch. So I can easily see and apply your changes.
Sincerly
Nico
