I just did my first vm build from git...
$ git checkout -b firstbuild Cog
$ cd image
$ ./buildspurtrunkvmmakerimage.sh
$ cd build.linux32x86/squeak.cog.spur/build
$ ./mvm
Which completes okay, but reports...
Libraries have been installed in:
/home/ben/Repos/OpenSmalltalk/vm/products/cogspurlinuxht/lib/squeak/5.0-201606221719-btc/condense-gitignore
but condense-gitignore is not the current branch, but a previous branch I
worked on where I didn't even do a build (I'm reasonably sure, but maybe I
forget).
$ git branch
[snip]
* firstbuild
btc/condense-gitignore
I poked around and found the message comes from
./platforms/unix/config/ltmain.sh
but I don't see any git commands there to determine the branch, so it seems
the branch must be passed to ltmain from somewhere else??
