Jonathan wondered on IRC about the weirdo hardcoded check for releases/gcc-9. The intent was to punt if it isn't a git tree at all, or e.g. somebody unpacks gcc tarball without gcc/DATESTAMP file in it into his git tracked home directory. Perhaps better might be start with if git merge-base --is-ancestor 633c65dda889eb887fb6ce3b04cefdeb4a69b0b3 HEAD; then ... ; fi to verify it is GCC 8+ (for older we of course would never omit gcc/DATESTAMP). > o=$(git config --get gcc-config.upstream); test -z "$o" && o=origin; r=$(cat > BASE-VER | cut -d. -f 1); b=; if git rev-parse --verify --quiet > $o/releases/gcc-$r >/dev/null; then b=origin/releases/gcc-$r; elif git > rev-parse --verify --quiet $o/releases/gcc-9 >/dev/null; then b=$o/master; > fi; test -n "$b" && TZ=UTC LC_ALL=C git log --date=iso -1 $(git merge-base > HEAD $b) | sed -n 's/^Date:[[:blank:]]*//p' | sed 's/ .*$//;s/-//g' Jakub
