Hi, I'm currently investigating how to fight software regressions with git bisect. Particularly, I want to use git bisect to help locate the #Bug12181 (http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?12181). However, when I use "git checkout FINDUTILS_4_2_18-1" to switch to the version 4.2.18, it fails to compile. Moreover, I noticed that FINDUTILS_4_2_18-1.tar.gz (from http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/findutils.git/snapshot/FINDUTILS_4_2_18-1.tar.gz) is different from findutils-4.2.18.tar.gz (from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/findutils/findutils-4.2.18.tar.gz). My question is, how to get the code of findutils 4.2.18 (which can be successfully compiled) by git automatically?
Looking forward to your reply,
