https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=252664 Bug ID: 252664 Summary: change "-dirty" uname -v designator to something less obtrusive Product: Base System Version: Unspecified Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: freebsd@oldach.net Since migration to git, a build from a modified tree would show up tagged as "-dirty", e.g. FreeBSD 12.2-STABLE #0 df592782db9(stable/12)-dirty This will also show up to innocent end users through motd, potentially suggesting they are connecting to a system that is kind of "dirty" in some way and requires cleaning or so. Can we please change this back to something less obtrusive? With svn, we simply had an "M" (for "modified") designator attached to the revision (generated by svnversion). s/-dirty/M/ applied to newvers.sh should be sufficient. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
