mscore/revision.h should not be in git, as it is a generated file

• Jan 18, 2013 - 23:26

Each time I do a git fetch upstream; git checkout master; git rebase upstream/master I get an error regarding mscore/revision.h having been changed and not committed or stashed.

Given that mscore/revision.h is generated by make revision, and that make release already has revision as a dependency, it seems to me that mscore/revision.h should be removed from the git repository completely and added to .gitignore instead.

Just building a fresh checkout without any midifications should not result in changes that need committing, stashing or undoing.

I didn't realize there was a mailing list; I thought there were just these forums.

I posted here because the category said "Bug Reports", although later I discovered the Issue Tracker too, and realised it should have been posted there. I'll do that today.

Still finding my way round the MuseScore community! :)
