With one small caveat - GNU make isn't smart about doing a get of any includes in the Makefile. It's a bug and I don't think it is fixed yet. But in general it works great, our make clobber target does a bk -r clean and a simple make builds the bk source tree, checking out files as needed. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitkeeper.com _______________________________________________ Bitkeeper-users mailing list [email protected] http://bitmover.com/mailman/listinfo/bitkeeper-users To unsubscribe from this list, go to the above URL, follow instruction at the bottom of the web page.
