Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] ci: stop linking built-ins to the dashed versions
Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2020 15:38:00 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ea23ba5e269305b660a1722254e2a933c14e5b57.1598283480.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.411.v2.git.1598283480.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

Originally, all of Git's subcommands were implemented in their own
executable/script, using the naming scheme `git-<command-name>`. When
more and more functionality was turned into built-in commands (i.e. the
`git` executable could run them without spawning a separate process),
for backwards-compatibility, we hard-link the `git` executable to
`git-<built-in>` for every built-in.

This backwards-compatibility was needed to support scripts that called
the dashed form, even if we deprecated that a _long_ time ago.

For that reason, we just introduced a Makefile knob to skip linking
them. TO make sure that this keeps working, teach the CI
(and PR) builds to skip generating those hard-links.
