Comment #2 on issue 1707 by percival.music.ca: add python -tt to build
system
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1707
hmm, I must admit that 10 minutes of looking didn't turn out the kind of
python invocation of scripts I was expecting. Python files are copied
across to out/ using stepmake/bin/install.py (why isn't that in
scripts/build/ ? I have no clue. I had no idea we even had a
stepmake/bin/ directory!), but invoking that script with -tt would only
change that the install.py script uses correct tabs.
Now, there's no harm in adding -tt to the default $(PYTHON) command, but
that would only catch errors in something like 25% of our python files.
OTOH, I'm not too worried about problems in python files. I'm the worst
(only?) offender in the past 5 years to use tabs, and I'm reforming. As
long as we have an official policy of not using tabs (and can therefore
reject any patch which introduces them), I don't think we need to get all
fussed about this issue.
Let's leave this as a potential "introduction to our build system" in case
there's a Frog that wants to play with an easy item, but otherwise ignore
it. If nobody's touched this in a year or two, we can mark it invalid.
