If you use "redo --old-args", it will switch back to the old
(apenwarr-style) arguments for now, to give you time to update your .do
scripts. This option will go away eventually.
Note: minimal/do doesn't understand the --old-args option. If you're using
minimal/do in your project, keep using the old one until you update your use
of $1/$2, and then update to the new one.
apenwarr-style default.o.do:
$1 foo
$2 .o
$3 whatever.tmp
djb-style default.o.do:
$1 foo.o
$2 foo
$3 whatever.tmp
apenwarr-style foo.o.do:
$1 foo.o
$2 ""
$3 whatever.tmp
djb-style foo.o.do:
$1 foo.o
$2 foo.o (I think?)
$3 whatever.tmp
Turns out we don't need sed to process the output of gcc -MD. We can just
do this:
read DEPS <filename.deps
The 'read' command in sh actually handles backslashes correctly, so we don't
have to sed them out after all. And then a simple ${DEPS#*:} removes the
"target:" prefix from the dependency line, and we're done!
We have to go through some pretty scary gyrations to extract this
information from git, but it can be done. This works with both tarballs
generated by 'git archive', or with your local git repo.
