[Savannah-hackers] Re: diffing emacs branches

[Richard Stallman]

    ^emacs /usr/local/bin/log_accum -T emacs -C -m address@hidden 
address@hidden  -s %{sVv}

    #       -r TAG          - operate only on changes with tag TAG
    #       -r BRANCH       - operate only on changes in branch TAG
    #                         Use -r "" for "only changes with no tag or 
branch".

    I do not remember what you wanted, but with this information I can
    only say that the new log_accum script has never been used, because
    the entry in loginfo is the standard entry.

What you see is that the new -r feature is not being used.  The new
log_accum script IS being used, if it is still the one that is
installed.  (Can you check that?)

It handles branches in an intelligent way even without the -r option.


We did have a plan to start using the -r option.
The idea is to run log-accum with -r "" for emacs-diffs,
and run it with -r RC for another list, emacs-rc-diffs.

Want to try that?

    Or mayby the documentation of the -r tag isn't complete and should say
    that when it is not present it is set to -r "".

That is not the case.
