The idea is that one should be able to compare as much as possible
between the build of /usr/src/linux-<version_a> built in
/usr/src/linux-<version_a>/build and /usr/src/linux-<version_b> built in
/usr/src/linux-<version_b>/build. One can now even compare the build log
with -j1, although that was not the primary goal. So if the changed
message is considered problematic, I can change it to show the full path
again, like
diff --git a/scripts/mkmakefile b/scripts/mkmakefile
index 84af27b..9d291f5 100644
--- a/scripts/mkmakefile
+++ b/scripts/mkmakefile
@@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ then
exit 0
fi
if [ "${quiet}" != "silent_" ]; then
- echo " GEN $2/Makefile"
+ echo " GEN $(cd $2 && /bin/pwd)/Makefile"
fi
cat << EOF > $2/Makefile
Opinions?
Thanks,
Michal
