First, you have no idea what I had been up to those 5 hours, let alone if I was parked in front of the computer the whole time... Then, the "patch" was really a multitude of patches, involving fixes to issues in GDB and GDBserver (GDBserver was not using gnulib before, and that was that prompted the gnulib update), with the most time consuming bit being that the way that GDB imports gnulib was changed dramatically, because we now have _two_ programs in the same tree that share the _same_ gnulib import in a way no other program does, afaik. http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00426.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00556.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00558.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00608.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00609.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00618.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00620.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00622.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00627.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00631.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00637.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00646.html http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-04/msg00692.html As Reuben says, just updating gnulib is a trivial case of git pull + running gnulib-tool. -- Pedro Alves
