Hi! I checked to see what would happen if I merged maint back into msvc after commiting the AM_PROG_AR series, and there is some minor testsuite fallout that needs to be fixed manually. My plan was to amend the merge commit with the fixups, along with a note in ChangeLog pointing to what files I'm touching etc. The question is how I should label the resulting commit.
The merges normally get commit messages like > Merge branch 'maint' into msvc but that does not look like a normal ChangeLog header. But that's the best I can think of. So, a commit message along these lines: > Merge branch 'maint' into msvc > > * tests/foo.test: Adjust to new portability requirements due > to the new AM_PROG_AR macro. > * tests/bar.test: Likewise. And this in ChangeLog: > 4711-17-42 Peter Rosin <p...@lysator.liu.se> > > Merge branch 'maint' into msvc > * tests/foo.test: Adjust to new portability requirements due > to the new AM_PROG_AR macro. > * tests/bar.test: Likewise. Sounds like a plan? Cheers, Peter
