Follow-up Comment #5, bug #52076 (project make): > At the least you should find the original bug report and/or discussion threads and read through them. I'm fairly sure they'd include their own metrics demonstrating the value of GLOB_NOSORT leading to a more informed discussion.
The commit ChangeLog only mentions https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10246 which is unrelated and 95f1a32d27eef91a8a037522467d7060e7da2624 which added the NEWS entry links to http://sv.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?group=make&report_id=111&fix_release_id=104&set=custom which lists 90 bugs, with a handful related to wildcard but I found none about performance or sorting I also glanced over https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2009-05/threads.html https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-make/2009-05/threads.html and the ones for start of June but also did not find anything so I would be grateful for a pointer to that previous bug/discussion OTOH the patch is simple enough that I already considered pushing it into openSUSE which would solve the issue for us, but I thought it would be nicer to let everyone profit from such a nice fix (instead of having to touch 100+ packages to fix each of them individually) to make them build reproducibly. ( See https://reproducible-builds.org/ on why this matters ) _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?52076> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
