I have just noticed that source tree and tarball contains awk source code. It was added in r1914373 [1] [[[ In tools/dev: Copy awk from https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/win32-msi/trunk/awk
build-svn-deps-win.pl require AWK but a binary version is not so easy to find anymore. Thus include the sources here so we can build our own. ]]] However: 1. Apache HTTP Server no longer requires AWK for CMake-based build since r1919413. The change was backported to Apache HTTP Server 2.4.x in r1926319 [3]. 2. tools/dev/awk is included in tarball, but NOTICE doesn't contains Copyright information for awk source code. 3. The build-svn-deps-win.pl script uses NMake-based build for Apache HTTP server, which is outdated. 4. I would say that most parts of the build-svn-deps-win.pl script are superseded by using CMake together with vcpkg (also described in INSTALL). 5. The build-svn-deps-win.pl script doesn't validate checksums when fetching remote data. Given all the above I suggest we remove tools/dev/awk and tools/dev/ build-svn-deps-win.pl from source code and final Subversion 1.15.0 tarball. Thoughts?
