# This file adds commands to manage the FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE (hereafter
|
|
# FBVF). This file exists in the build directory and is used to populate the
|
|
# documentation and also the version string in fish_version.o (printed with
|
|
# `echo $version` and also fish --version). The essential idea is that we are
|
|
# going to invoke git_version_gen.sh, which will update the
|
|
# FISH-BUILD-VERSION-FILE only if it needs to change; this is what makes
|
|
# incremental rebuilds fast.
|
|
#
|
|
# This code is delicate, with the chief subtlety revolving around Ninja. A
|
|
# natural and naive approach would tell the generated build system that FBVF is
|
|
# a dependency of fish_version.o, and that git_version_gen.sh updates it. Make
|
|
# will then invoke the script, check the timestamp on fish_version.o and FBVF,
|
|
# see that FBVF is earlier, and then not rebuild fish_version.o. Ninja,
|
|
# however, decides what to build up-front and will unconditionally rebuild
|
|
# fish_version.o.
|
|
#
|
|
# To avoid this with Ninja, we want to hook into its 'restat' option which we
|
|
# can do through the BYPRODUCTS feature of CMake. See
|
|
# https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/policy/CMP0058.html
|
|
#
|
|
# Unfortunately BYPRODUCTS behaves strangely with the Makefile generator: it
|
|
# marks FBVF as generated and then CMake itself will `touch` it on every build,
|
|
# meaning that using BYPRODUCTS will cause fish_version.o to be rebuilt
|
|
# unconditionally with the Makefile generator. Thus we want to use the
|
|
# natural-and-naive approach for Makefiles.
|
|
|
|
# **IMPORTANT** If you touch these build rules, please test both Ninja and
|
|
# Makefile generators with both a clean and dirty git tree. Verify that both
|
|
# generated build systems rebuild fish when the git tree goes from dirty to
|
|
# clean (and vice versa), and verify they do NOT rebuild it when the git tree
|
|
# stays the same (incremental builds must be fast).
|
|
|
|
# Just a handy abbreviation.
