Hi all,
a followup to yesterday's and today's IRC discussion.
This patch adds a configure option --enable-build-info[=text]
If text is specified, it will print it on the second line of "squid -v".
If the option is given but no text is specified, configure will
attempt to determine whether we are in a bzr checkout and locate the
bzr executable. If both succeed, it will automatically build a text
string containing the branch nickname and revno.
If no option is given, nothing will happen.
This patch serves two purposes:
- help those who closely trail trunk or some other bzr branch to
easily pinpoint good revisions
How would this change helps those who closely trail trunk to easily
pinpoint good revisions?
- help those who develop custom builds (e.g. for a specific customer)
explicitly mark it as such.
* Would not the printf below add an empty line by default, due to \n
after the new %s?
printf("Squid Cache: Version %s\n%s\nconfigure options: %s\n", version_string,
SQUID_BUILD_INFO, SQUID_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS);
We should not add an empty line, IMO.
Thanks,
Alex.
