Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2012 11:10:37 +0000 From: Jonathan Austin <jonathan.austin@....com> To: akpm@...ux-foundation.org Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, dhowells@...hat.com, Jonathan Austin <jonathan.austin@....com> Subject: [PATCH] Remove stale entry for generated version.h file in .gitignore Since userspace headers were moved to generated/uapi it possible to have a stale copy of linux/version.h at that file's old location. This causes confusion after building an older kernel version, then checking out and building a new one; the old (stale) version header will still get picked up until it is manually removed. This upsets the C library. Since the uapi changes, include/linux/version.h is no longer generated and should not be ignored, so this patch removes it from .gitignore.
