This modification would make no additional work for Gary, and would lift the burden of massaging the source file from everyone running ASDF from a git checkout. It would have the added benefit of removing 16 lines of lisp source that do fussy string manipulations to set *asdf-revision*. This seems like a good trade-off --- a few lines of shell script or makefile provides an easy operation for Gary (and simplifies the export), and saves work for the development community.
Hi Robert,
I think so; besides, I'd love to get rid of that "fussy string manipulation" code (which is a great description of it, though futzy would be equally apt). -- Gary Warren King, metabang.com Cell: (413) 559 8738 Fax: (206) 338-4052 gwkkwg on Skype * garethsan on AIM * gwking on twitter
