Hi Ales,

Yes, I'm talking about release tarballs.

And, yes, that is quit easy indeed ;-)

However, one should have a makefile.

I guess that make uses the files in the working directories, and does
not create a tarball from the files inside the CVS repository.

I have the impression that git uses the files from within the
repository, since there is no makefile for my pcb-dxf-HID I'm currently
coding, as compiling it goes into the general pcb make flow by modifying
the toplevel makefile et al.

It could be that git checks if the files in the working directories are
in sync with the files inside the repository and then uses the files in
the working directories, my knowledge of the internals of git do not go
this far.

I could check out all this behaviour tonight ;-)

Just my EUR 0.02

Kind regards,

Bert Timmerman.

Are we talking about making the release source tarballs?  If so, then
building them is one command:   make distcheck  
Doesn't get much easier than that. :)
