I'd like to add some functionality for the automatic generation of the manpage (http://patchwork.coreboot.org/patch/3884/). I think I'll add an optional parameter that specifies what part of the repository should be taken into account: default == everything, or specific files only. With that we could call getrevision.sh -t flashrom.8(.in) and get the last modification date of the manpage. My current git patch prints the version string as follows: ./flashrom -R flashrom v0.9.7-r1706-b75bc95-6-dirty available from [email protected]:stefanct/flashrom.git git, modified 2013-08-12T02:19:39+0200 on Linux 3.8.0-6-generic (x86_64) which is obviously a bit long. maybe we could just add a line break after the comma and be happy? :) v0.9.7-r1706-b75bc95-6-dirty means: stable version-svn revision-git hash-number of commits since last svn commit (i.e. how diverged from upstream)-optional "dirty" string if there are uncommitted changes. -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list [email protected] http://www.flashrom.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
