Subject: [PATCH] fix gcc 4.0 big endian sha1
Date: Sun, 01 Nov 2020 11:42:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.907.git.git.1604230936338.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)

From: alex <you@example.com>

The file sha1dc/sha1.c requires big endian to be defined by the compiler. If it is not defined, then it defaults to little endian mode, which when compiled and ran on a big endian machine results in a sha1 mismatch.

This change will allow git to correctly detect big endian on GCC 4.2 and GCC 4.0 running on PowerPC Mac OS X 10.4 and Mac OS X 10.5, resulting in a successful build that works correctly.

    fix gcc 4.0 big endian sha1
    
    Currently, sha1.c is compiled in little endian mode when using gcc 4.0
    on Mac OS X 10.4 PowerPC (which is big endian). This results in a build
    that always states there is a sha1 mismatch. The below patch allows big
    endian to be detected correctly using GCC 4.0 and probably older
    versions as well.
