2008-05-25scripts/ver_linux use 'gcc -dumpversion'Gabriel C
These magic greps and hacks in ver_linux to get the gcc version always break after some gcc releases. Since now gcc >4.3 allows compiling with '--with-pkgversion' ( which can be everything 'My Cool Gcc' or something ) ver_linux will report random junk for these. Simply use 'gcc -dumpversion' to get the gcc version which should always work.

2007-10-12kbuild: scripts/ver_linux : correct printing of binutils versionJesper Juhl
Currently scripts/ver_linux prints "Binutils" or other random information for the version number in the "binutils" output line on some distributions. This patch corrects that. When I initially submitted a patch to correct that, I was not aware that the output from "ld -v" could differ as much as it turned out it can, so my original fix turned out to not cover all bases. This patch works correctly with all the different "ld -v" output that people posted in replys to my first patch, so it should be a clear win over what we have currently.

2007-10-12kbuild: ver_linux fix glibc version printJesper Juhl
Fix ver_linux glibc version printing (for real this time) Alexey Dobriyan reported that commit 4a645d5ea65baaa5736bcb566673bf4a351b2ad8 broke ver_linux when glibc has a 3 digit version number, and proposed a patch. Al Viro then suggested a simpler way to solve the problem which I've then simply put into patch form.

2007-07-25kbuild: fix up printing of Linux C Library version in scripts/ver_linuxJesper Juhl
I noticed, when running scripts/ver_linux on both a Gentoo system and a Slackware system, that the line printing the C library version looked a little odd. So I fixed it up to be in line with all the rest. Old output: Linux C Library > libc.2.5 New output: Linux C Library 2.5 Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
