This script allows one to easily find commits in several Git
repositories around a given date (in any date format accepted by Git).
The repositories may be given labels for easier identification and can
be defined via a configuration file and/or the command-line arguments.
Option --checkout tells git-date.py to automatically perform a
'git checkout' in each of the repositories at the commits that were
found. Options --show-commits and --show-commits-option instruct it to
run 'git show' for each commit found with the options of your choice
(all options can also be set via a configuration file).
This script can be useful to find when a given regression happened in
FlightGear---or any project that makes use of several Git repositories.
For more details, run 'git-date.py --help'.
- build_release_windows.bat - add code to parse FGVersion and provide FGVersionGroup (major.minor) text
- FlightGear.iss - extend docs, use FGHarnessDir to exclude direct drive mapping, use FGVersionGroup for installer marking, add i18n (en/pl) with custom messages, use %USERPROFILE instead of {userdocs} for additional folders
(cherry picked from commit 5da03d6ae9412afd53452c4e04fb33ca2fe36249)
If the OSG component has been specified, don't attempt to install a
libopenscenegraph...-dev package from the distro. Ditto for the
libplib-dev package when the PLIB component has been specified.
For SimGear, FlightGear and FGData (i.e., the SIMGEAR, FGFS and DATA
components in download_and_compile.sh-speak), option --lts now means
release/2020.3 and the new option --old-lts means release/2018.3.
Each of these options may be passed multiple times. The advantage over
the previous interface (environment variables SG_CMAKEARGS and
FG_CMAKEARGS) is that the new interface allows one to pass arguments
containing spaces to CMake, for instance:
--sg-cmake-args='-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-Wno-deprecated-declarations -Wall'
(the single quotes here would be interpreted by the user's shell, and
removed before download_and_compile.sh can see them). Setting the
environment variables SG_CMAKEARGS and FG_CMAKEARGS should still work as
before but is now deprecated.
The implementation uses Bash arrays named SG_CMAKE_ARGS and
FG_CMAKE_ARGS, but in order to avoid confusing users about the
deprecated variable names, the log file continues to print
'SG_CMAKEARGS=...' and 'FG_CMAKEARGS=...' (note the different use of
underscores in the names).
aircraft_updates.py - list updated aircraft in fgaddon between two date
points. Useful for release notes.
find_md5file.py - identify identical files based on md5sum. Useful
for finding license infringement.
Before this change, using OSG with download_and_compile.sh several times
in the same directory would fail because the upstream repo for OSG has
none of README, README.txt and README.rst at top-level (it has a
README.md). Testing for the .git dir is definitely more reliable.
If --cleanup is used and no component has been specified on the command
line, run the cleanup routine but don't process any component: no
download, no compilation, no installation. Previously(*), this used to
process the default set of components: SIMGEAR FGFS and DATA.
Therefore, if all you want to do is to remove compiled and installed
files, you can now run:
download_and_compile.sh --cleanup
(*) During less than 24 hours, as --cleanup was added yesterday.
