Hey Devs, and more specifically Super Ted,
I'm trying to come up with a script to process some of these merge requests more effectively. I've been keeping a trunk branch handy which is re-made each new pull so I have something up to date enough to work from and not have to wait for huge builds.
So, I thinks to myself, maybe if I used bzr correctly and did a `bzr branch trunk bug174678 --hardlink`, ran the autogen and then hardlinked over all the .o files from trunk, I'd have a reasonable starting point.
Turns out it's not that simple and make just wants to rebuild everything in the new branch anyway. I'm guessing it's checking some prerequisite's date stamp and I'm just not making sure it's touched.
Script can be seen here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5621102/
Any ideas?
Best Regards, Martin Owens
