This sounds great. Would it be possible to add a simple comment in the commit message this is a housekeeping update to the latest? It makes it easier reviewing the commit log to understand changes of interest verses such as things we need or make in newlib verses housekeeping. >> >> Are these versions of the compiler tracking tarfile packages? > > No, the configurations track the release branches. > For newlib this makes sense during development and releases because of newlib's long release period. It also works for binutils, gcc and gdb when we are in development however I am not sure it does with releases. Should we look to tarfiles for releases for the binutils, gcc and gdb tools?
