Subject: | bug#48117: 28.0.50; Update of loaddefs.el during normal build is unreliable |
Date: | Fri, 30 Apr 2021 15:47:51 +0000 |
These updates should happen automatically, they should not require people to "make bootstrap" or manually regenerate loaddefs.el.Would it not make sense to include these changes in their respective commits?loaddefs.el is a generated file (and so are the other *-loaddefs.el files).
Ah, yes, indeed.
Another solution would be to have a cron job running somewhere and automatically pushing these changes once a day or so.How can we do that for files that aren't versioned?
I have two questions: Why are these files not versioned?The generated lisp/loaddefs.el file is AFAICS identical to the lisp/ldefs-boot.el (after calling admin/update_autogen -L), which is versioned. Why is the lisp/loaddefs.el generated?
