Makefile(s): avoid recipe prefix in conditional statements In GNU Make commit 07fcee35 ([SV 64815] Recipe lines cannot contain conditional statements, 2023-05-22) and following, conditional statements may no longer be preceded by a tab character (which Make refers to as the recipe prefix). There are a handful of spots in our various Makefile(s) which will break in a future release of Make containing 07fcee35. For instance, trying to compile the pre-image of this patch with the tip of make.git results in the following: $ make -v | head -1 && make GNU Make 4.4.90 config.mak.uname:842: *** missing 'endif'. Stop. The kernel addressed this issue in 82175d1f9430 (kbuild: Replace tabs with spaces when followed by conditionals, 2024-01-28). Address the issues in Git's tree by applying the same strategy. When a conditional word (ifeq, ifneq, ifdef, etc.) is preceded by one or more tab characters, replace each tab character with 8 space characters with the following: find . -type f -not -path './.git/*' -name Makefile -or -name '*.mak' | xargs perl -i -pe ' s/(\t+)(ifn?eq|ifn?def|else|endif)/" " x (length($1) * 8) . $2/ge unless /\\$/ ' The "unless /\\$/" removes any false-positives (like "\telse \" appearing within a shell script as part of a recipe). After doing so, Git compiles on newer versions of Make: $ make -v | head -1 && make GNU Make 4.4.90 GIT_VERSION = 2.44.0.414.gfac1dc44ca9 [...] $ echo $? 0 Reported-by: Dario Gjorgjevski <dario.gjorgjevski@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt
for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial
or git help tutorial
, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname>
or git help <commandname>
.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration
or git help cvs-migration
if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).
Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po
file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).
To subscribe to the list, send an email to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
