But... Weeeell now, that skepticism is indeed well founded. It's dontdiff. A diff of trees where defkeymap.c_shipped has been modified produces no output. Once a working tree has been afflicted by using diff+dontdiff to update it, even overwriting the entire tree via git-archive doesn't lead to a good build unless you also touch defkeymap.c_shipped afterward. In my case, the working tree remained buildable yet thoroughly busted through a lengthy bisect and beyond. That bisect positively identified... the victim. poo. -Mike - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
