libtool.m4 ltmain.sh Changed by https://gcc.gnu.org/r262451 libvtv/ChangeLog libvtv/configure libvtv/testsuite/lib/libvtv.exp Changed by https://gcc.gnu.org/r257809 https://gcc.gnu.org/r259462 https://gcc.gnu.org/r259487 https://gcc.gnu.org/r259837 https://gcc.gnu.org/r259838 (but mostly one line changes). lto-plugin/ChangeLog lto-plugin/configure lto-plugin/lto-plugin.c Changed by https://gcc.gnu.org/r259462 and https://gcc.gnu.org/r260960 MAINTAINERS This file sees a air bit of churn, but all one line changes. https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/gcc/trunk/MAINTAINERS?view=log maintainer-scripts/ChangeLog maintainer-scripts/crontab maintainer-scripts/gcc_release Changed by https://gcc.gnu.org/r257045 and https://gcc.gnu.org/r259637 and https://gcc.gnu.org/r259881 Makefile.def Makefile.in Makefile.tpl Changed by https://gcc.gnu.org/r261717 (which didn't touch any other files) but also by some large changes, which might have been merges: https://gcc.gnu.org/r255195 (large removal of feature) https://gcc.gnu.org/r259669 https://gcc.gnu.org/r259755 https://gcc.gnu.org/r261304 (another large feature removal) https://gcc.gnu.org/r262267 zlib/configure zlib/configure.ac Changed by https://gcc.gnu.org/r261739 There's no single change that touched all of them. Not even two or three changes that seem seem to have anything in common, except for autoconf regeneration, which happens frequently throughout GCC's history.
