Hello Giuseppe, > +elif git describe > /dev/null 2>&1 \
If 'git' is not found in PATH, this line would yield an error message in some shells. To avoid that, run the command in a sub-shell: elif (git describe) > /dev/null 2>&1 \ > * build-aux/git-version-gen: Check if it is a git repository using the > "git status" command instead of test'ing the .git directory presence. > + * build-aux/git-version-gen: Check if it is a git repository using the > + "git status" command instead of test'ing the .git directory presence. The ChangeLog and commit message don't reflect what the patch is doing. Otherwise, your patch works fine for me (but I'm not a 'git' expert). Bruno
