It removed many .gitignore files and combined them at a higher level. I suspect that this introduced the error for .asm files. I think that for some tools, .asm is the proper name for assembly files. I think that for others, .asm are generated files. > > If my suspicion is true, then the correct fix is to revert parts of that PR, Maybe #1106 ? I can't look now, I am using my phone. Yes, I move .asm to the top level of .gitigonre since *.asm appear in many sub .gitigonre. The build system can catch the orphan files error, so we can simplify remove *.asm from the top level .gitigonre and see which folder really need this and add it back one by one. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
