Notes about git-svn source control in macOS

Hi Jürgen: Hope the following can be useful and perhaps even remove the extra maintenance burden of git. I don’t understand enough about the various configure files (.ac, .sub, etc etc) etc to modify buildtag myself. respect Peter For macOS users TL:DNR // download svn repo using git clone

Re: Can't configure current APL

Interesting. both of you have same error but different OS' although both Linux’s. I just downloaded latest, i.e. svn 1445, using git and ./configure gives me the same error. (my earlier experiments were with svn 1440 and all was OK.) What did you use to download - svn? or tarball? or git? conf

Re: ./configure error

I think the "f" variable in the do loop near the end of "configure" is being reset in "source buildtag.sh", which also uses "f". Changing one of these do something else, e.g. "", seems to work. (It's easier to change the one in buildtag.sh: it only appears once.) On 3/26/21 9:38 PM, Pete

Re: ./configure error

Looking at this further, there's a whole block in buildtag.sh that duplicates definitions in configure and resets apl_top. I think this block can be deleted (but I haven't worked with bash scripts for "awhile", so please check my logic). On 3/26/21 10:55 PM, Bill Heagy wrote: I think the "f"
