Say someone builds with `--with-butter=salted`. Then later on Fossil adds a switch that has the same name `--with-butter=`, but it takes a different kind of argument that is completely incompatible. If the behavior is relied upon it cannot really be taken back once it is out in the open. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
