Yes, this is vital information to have in the commit message. I'm guessing it has something to do with the fact that 'make dist' tries to create source tarballs, which is a strange thing to do during the binary build, and in any case it ultimately fails because tarball generation now requires .gitcensus, which is cleaned out and then requires git to regeneration, which you can't do when you're building from a source tarball? <shrug> Hm? --D > Cheers, > > Dave. > -- > Dave Chinner > david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
