Resending this in case one needs to subscribe to be able to send. Thanks for creating and maintaining smatch. Might it be possible to remove the binaries: cgcc sparse-llvm-dis sparsec sparsei from the source repository? See for example: https://repo.or.cz/smatch/bkmgit.git/shortlog/refs/heads/remove-binaries This will help reduce the size of distributed source tarballs. In particular when packaging smatch for Fedora generally prefer not to have binaries in the source tarball.
