Subject: adding warning to obsolete unicode branch
Date: Mon, 04 Feb 2008 03:57:19 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87myqhj2b4.fsf@catnip.gol.com> (raw)
As a large number of people used the emacs-unicode-2 branch
out of CVS, I think it might be a good idea to add a warning
to the configure script and Makefiles in the branch, so that
if they update from that branch and build emacs, they'll get
a big fat message telling them they should probably use the
trunk instead.
E.g.
********************************************************************
** **
** The Emacs "emacs-unicode-2" branch has been merged into **
** the CVS trunk, and is now obsolete. You should probably **
** use the CVS trunk instead. **
** **
** To switch a CVS checkout to the trunk, use the command: **
** **
** cvs update -A **
** **
********************************************************************
The configure script is easy, though I'm not exactly sure
which make targets such a thing should be added to...
Any opinions?
Thanks,
-Miles
