What am I missing here?
Most likely nothing, I've got some warnings during the first build of
the package about the completions and thought I had fixed it. I'll have
to check what has been going on, but obviously while the messages were
gone the actual installation still didn't work..
WJFFM!
File installed and also in latest test release 2.51, but appears to be missing
from git 2.45.4 security release NMU?
But the upstream source location and contents of contrib/completion/ does not
change, until 2.48.0[-rc1], when meson.build gets added there.
$ cygcheck -l git | grep completions/git
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/git
Upgraded to 2.45.4, completion file is missing:
eos:/usr/share/bash-completion >cygcheck -l git | grep completions/git
eos:/usr/share/bash-completion >git -v
git version 2.45.4
Downgraded to 2.45.1:
eos:/usr/share/bash-completion >cygcheck -l git | grep completions/git
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/git
eos:/usr/share/bash-completion >git -v
git version 2.45.1
Upgraded again, still missing:
eos:/usr/share/bash-completion >cygcheck -l git | grep completions/git
eos:/usr/share/bash-completion >git -v
git version 2.45.4
Upgrade to test 2.51.0, test version has the script:
eos:/usr/share/bash-completion >cygcheck -l git | grep completions/git
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/git
eos:/usr/share/bash-completion >git -v
git version 2.51.0
Looks like 2.45.4 is a problem, but it is an upstream problem.
I see no obviously relevant changes in the upstream source files, or autoconf or
automake definitions, so it looks like it might be an issue during the cygport
install or package phases?
I have checked Cygwin git, bash-completion/-devel, and pkgconf/pkg-config
packages, and I do not see any changes affecting completion installation, unless
there were glitches affecting the packaging of git 2.45.4, or earlier
bash-completion, or pkgconf/pkg-config updates between git 2.45.1 and current
stable of those packages, on the systems used to build and package those deployed?
