I have a makefile that I am trying to get to build a binary dist
for me, by putting the date and time into the tar filename.
I can't for the life of me get it to work. ONCE I ran it and it
worked, and then I deleted the tar files and tried again without
editing it, and it failed.. go figure.. Haven't been able to
get it to work again. I'm not very "make" literate, and can't
get command substitution working right.
DISTDIR=dist/
all:
bindist:
@echo Making: bindist
@echo -n "Creating tar archive ... "
@DATECODE=`/bin/date +"%Y-%m-%d-%H%M"`
tar --exclude-from bindist-excludelist.txt \
-zcvf $(DISTDIR)/mikeweb-$(DATECODE).tar.gz *
@echo done.
Any help appreciated.
