So? Doesn't post-release display the svn revision.for gcc -v, which gcc -v doesn't display today? Something like this diff --git a/gcc/DEV-PHASE b/gcc/DEV-PHASE index e69de29..ee176f8 100644 --- a/gcc/DEV-PHASE +++ b/gcc/DEV-PHASE @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +post-release > about the --version output (though it changes it in IMO sensible way), but > rather about file and directory names, so that they are based only on the > major version, not on the micro version (where major before gcc5 was X.Y, > and now is only X). > > > Ciao, > Michael. -- H.J.
