Or one would simply commit some malware deep somewhere with --author and
--committer set to an inactive contributors name. It is not
inconceivable that, if timed well, this would easily slip by as people
usually don't read every bit of history after a git-pull.
Not possible if the commit must be signed for a push to pass.

committer has to look
at them, and a signature is a way of proving that a given committer did.

This is correct, though, there is a session for the user 'gdm', and
they're taking up tty1. If you walk up to that computer (you said you
were using SSH, so I assume you're remote), you'll see
I did not know that.

Ah! Even better! Thank you very much :-)

+ * m4/printf.m4 (gl_SNPRINTF_DIRECTIVE_N): Add missing include for
me other bug I'm failing to see at this point in the
night. Whether pre-11 standards are worth supporting is up to you, but
my vote is on treating it like C99, though C++11 was more substantial
than C99, and requiring it to be enabled. I urge this option, or not
reusing the nullptr name.
It's, to my awareness, not possible to correctly and portably implement
nullptr in-language. I'll ask some friends for second opinions too.

This is a fault of an implementation, or an error in usage.

Hope that helps, have a great night.

This is now fixed in Clang:

Indeed, and if Gnulib is considered part of the said application, and it
usually acts mostly as if it were, this application (ginstall-info)
would have two conflicting ideas of what ``error'' means, and hence
getting this warning.
Have a lovely day.

The one that pops to mind is prefixing everything with ``gl_'', and
exposing aliases maybe. The former is unergonomic and latter is
fragile, though.

This appears to be a result of error in install-info.c being non-static.
It could be static, and avoid a potential symbol coll
out. I can do that
too given some time to think (so far, I'm leaning towards only having
JITTER_REFDIR that behaves as GNULIB_REFDIR does).
WDYT?
Thanks in advance.

un something like:
./autogen.sh --jitter-srcdir="$HOME/gnu/jitter-experimental"
in that case?
