Hello,
I've bootstrapped&tested the LRA branch on ia64 and posted the results
to gcc-testresults
(http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2012-12/msg01782.html).
Unfortunately there's nothing in the message that shows that this
wasn't a trunk checkout but the LRA branch.
Is it possible to identify the branch in the compiler version somehow?
I see the "REVISION" file mentioned in configure.ac and Makefile.in.
Should that file be used for this?
Yes, see
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2012-12/msg01861.html
[hjl@gnu-4 src-4.7]$ cat gcc/REVISION
[gcc-4_7-branch revision 194514]
[hjl@gnu-4 src-4.7]$
The last time I checked, gcc/REVISION is only set to the proper value by
running contrib/gcc_update.
