Makefiles and version control directories

QNX Newsgroups (Archives) qnx.development_tools

I’m using subversion for version control and I have lot’s of .svn (just like
CVS) directories all-around my BSP tree. The make system gives me hard time
because the “make install” copies the the .svn directories (with their
contents) as well.

Is there a special variable somewhere in the makefiles which I could use to
say that .svn directories should be ignored? I’m using QNX 6.3 on Windows
host.

cheers,
Martin

No variable, sorry. The flist-win32 (flist-unix on other platforms) shell
script needs to be updated. You can find it in “${QNX_TARGET}/usr/include/mk”.
The find just needs to have “.svn” be treated the same as the “CVS” and
“RCS” directories.

Thanks brian,
now it seems to work :slight_smile: Here’s what I did in case someone else has the same
problem:

diff mk/flist-nt.bat mk.old/flist-nt.bat
2c2
< %QNX_HOST%\usr\bin\find %* -type f | grep -v “Makefile” | egrep -v “^.” |
grep -v “CVS” | grep -v “RCS” | grep -v “.svn”

%QNX_HOST%\usr\bin\find %* -type f | grep -v “Makefile” | egrep -v “^.” |
grep -v “CVS” | grep -v “RCS”

diff mk/flist-unix mk.old/flist-unix
2,3c2,3
< \find $* ( ( -name CVS -o -name RCS -o -name .svn ) -prune -o -type f
)
< ! -name CVS ! -name RCS ! -name .svn ! -name Makefile ! -name .#*

\find $* ( ( -name CVS -o -name RCS ) -prune -o -type f )
! -name CVS ! -name RCS ! -name Makefile ! -name .#*
diff mk/flist-win32 mk.old/flist-win32

2,3c2,3
< $QNX_HOST/usr/bin/find $* ( ( -name CVS -o -name RCS -o -name .svn
) -prune -o -type f )
< ! -name CVS ! -name RCS ! -name .svn ! -name Makefile ! -name .#*

$QNX_HOST/usr/bin/find $* ( ( -name CVS -o -name RCS ) -prune -o -type
f )
! -name CVS ! -name RCS ! -name Makefile ! -name .#*

You should probably use diff -c or diff -u, it’s nicer on the eyes. :wink:

I guess you’re right. Well, here’s the same with the -c option
