(I have not tried to run it.) The build +process for this is quite elaborate; 2 chroots, one amd64 and one armel, +with the same versions of everything installed in each, and git-annex is +built in the first to get the info the EvilSplicer needs to build it in the +second. + +Fixed a nasty bug in the assistant on OSX, where at startup it would follow +symlinks in the repository that pointed to directories outside the +repository, and add the files found there. Didn't cause data loss itself +(in direct mode the assistant doesn't touch the files), but certianly +confusingly breaks things and makes it easy to shoot your foot off. I will +be moving up the next scheduled release because of this bug, probably to +Saturday. + +Looped the git developers in on a problem with git failing on some kernels +due to `RLIMIT_NOFILE` not working. Looks like git will get more robust and +this should make the armel build work on even more embedded devices. + +Today's work was sponsored by Johan Herland. |
