The tool currently produces something similar to a diff (but with changed lines compressed to a single line for conciseness). It should be easy to produce something that can be used with another tool to transform one config into another. It's unclear what to do with variables that are supposed to be removed from the config (as opposed to be set to "CONFIG_FOO is not set" Does merge.pl handle this, or is this left to something like 'make oldconfig'? -- Tim ============================= Tim Bird Architecture Group Chair, CE Linux Forum Senior Staff Engineer, Sony Corporation of America ============================= -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
