Fix a couple of issues in the recently merged 0f3c55d4c2b (Merge
branch 'ab/coccicheck-incremental' into next, 2022-11-08):
In copying over the "contrib/coccinelle/" rules to
".build/contrib/coccinelle/" we inadvertently ended up with a
".build/.build/contrib/coccinelle/" as well. We'd generate the
per-file patches in the former, and keep the rule and overall result
in the latter. E.g. running:
make contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch COCCI_SOURCES="attr.c grep.c"
Would, per "tree -a .build" yield the following result:
.build
├── .build
│ └── contrib
│ └── coccinelle
│ └── free.cocci.patch
│ ├── attr.c
│ ├── attr.c.log
│ ├── grep.c
│ └── grep.c.log
└── contrib
└── coccinelle
├── FOUND_H_SOURCES
├── free.cocci
└── free.cocci.patch
Now we'll instead generate all of our files in
".build/contrib/coccinelle/". Fixing this required renaming the
directory where we keep our per-file patches, as we'd otherwise
conflict with the result.
Now the per-file patch directory is named e.g. "free.cocci.d". And the
end result will now be:
.build
└── contrib
└── coccinelle
├── FOUND_H_SOURCES
├── free.cocci
├── free.cocci.d
│ ├── attr.c.patch
│ ├── attr.c.patch.log
│ ├── grep.c.patch
│ └── grep.c.patch.log
└── free.cocci.patch
The per-file patches now have a ".patch" file suffix, which fixes
another issue reported against 0f3c55d4c2b: The summary output was
confusing. Before for the "make" command above we'd emit:
[...]
MKDIR -p .build/contrib/coccinelle
CP contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci .build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci
GEN .build/contrib/coccinelle/FOUND_H_SOURCES
MKDIR -p .build/.build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch
SPATCH .build/.build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch/grep.c
SPATCH .build/.build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch/attr.c
SPATCH CAT $^ >.build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch
CP .build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch
But now we'll instead emit (identical output at the start omitted):
[...]
MKDIR -p .build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.d
SPATCH grep.c >.build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.d/grep.c.patch
SPATCH attr.c >.build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.d/attr.c.patch
SPATCH CAT .build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.d/**.patch >.build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch
CP .build/contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch contrib/coccinelle/free.cocci.patch
I.e. we have an "SPATCH" line that makes it clear that we're running
against the "{attr,grep}.c" file. The "SPATCH CAT" is then altered to
correspond to it, showing that we're concatenating the
"free.cocci.d/**.patch" files into one generated "free.cocci.patch" at
the end.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the
documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
(man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is
installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).
Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message
string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md
(a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org (not the Git list). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
