To update, run "perl DEVEL/nhgitset.pl"
Fixes:
- "nhcommit -a" has been fixed
- NHDT was hardwired in places
- no longer complain about a missing dat directory outside of the
NetHack source tree
- make update of gitinfo atomic
- Replace some hardwired directory separators with OS-dependent constructs
Backwards Incompatibilities:
- NH_DATESUB's DATE() is now Date() to match the other variables
- MSYS2 requires an additional Perl package - the MSYS2 docs have
been updated
New Help System:
- git nhhelp
This command mirrors "git help" for nh* commands.
- See git nhhelp nhsub for general help on substitution variables
New Substitution Variables:
-Brev()
An aBREViation of $PREFIX-Branch$:$PREFIX-Revision$ - this
may help get line length under control in file headers.
-Assert(TYPE=VALUE)
If TYPE does not match VALUE, do not substitute on this line.
TYPE P checks VALUE against nethack.substprefix
-Project(arg)
Returns nethack.projectname if there is no arg and an uppercase
version if arg is uc.
Other New Features:
- Add nethack.projectname
- Documentation updates - see "git nhhelp nhsub"
- On checkout or merge of a branch, check for nhgitset version updates
and provide an optional message to the user.
- Move NH_DATESUB substitutions here from cron job to keep dates in sync
- PREFIX-* keywords now available in NH_DATESUB templates
- Support use of nhgitset.pl from a different repo; note that update
checks will be dependent on keeping the original source repo up-to-date
and in the same location.
The most-current macOS version is greater than 12 (15 at time of
this change).
Expand Windows suggestions to include variations specific to MSYS2 and WSL2.
- fix bug in git hooks that loses file permissions when doing variable expansion
- fix execute permissions on sys/unix/hints/macosx.sh
