Many thanks David,

 

After weeks of constant failure on regression tests (ret_longdouble_test2... 
failure) I automatically run after each new commit, my beloved Raspberry Pi is 
again happy with tcc.

Subject: [Tinycc-devel] Mob has been reverted

 

Hey everyone,

 

I have pushed a reversion of the mob branch to http://repo.or.cz/

 

This process involved starting with grishka's commit on April 17, 
cherry-picking grishka's commit from May 8, and merging the previous state of 
"mob" (as of June 22) into this new line using the "our" strategy. The "our" 
strategy basically says, "don't actually apply any differences from the other 
branch, but link it to the history." Thus, if you look at the history of the 
current mob branch, it states that jian has made many commits in the recent 
history, but none of those code changes appear in the current state of the 
files in the mob branch. (Note that all other commits in the history were 
either not discussed, or were revisions of not-discussed commits.)

 

This, at least, is what I intended to do. I would appreciate if others could 
double-check that I performed the cherry picking and merging correctly. I do 
not perform this sort of work often.

 

This reversion does not invalidate jiang's work. jiang has demonstrated 
tremendous enthusiasm for improving tcc, and I think everybody here appreciates 
that enthusiasm. The problem is that jiang did not discuss the changes with the 
mailing list before pushing them. jiang, please filter your future 
contributions through a conversation on the mailing list before committing your 
work to mob. In the end, everybody will be happier with the result! :-)

 

David
