Storing generated files in source control makes maintenance and patch review much harder and puts extra requirements on us to keep things in sync. I'd rather the computer do the extra work :)
But in the same time, we can have 3rd party library, like nghttp2[1] (12KLOC) put into git. This is already more than 30 commits behind nghttp2/lib git HEAD, nor README.nghttp2 is updated about recent fixes in this forked code.
We store C files and require a compiler, where we could just store the compiled .o files in source control. To me this is much the same thing.
Great to know.
Balint and Jörg and I discussed that we would eventually like to remove the ASN.1 generated source from git as well, and make that a standard part of the build process.
I am happy to hear this, please do. For sure you want also do this for X11 dissector, which for rebuilt only requires downloading mesa sources. BR, Jakub. [1] I am very sorry Alexis, but I haven't found better example. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
