I did not consider the fact I have been linking a moving target the whole time. Heh, I gotta fix all those other blog links now. > Do give Makefiles a read in case you are not well-versed on them. It > might make the 'Git startup' process a bit easier to understand. Yeah, I did try reading the makefiles at first, but I found it easy to get lost when I didn't know what to look for at first. I did eventually understand how the startup works now :) Reading that Makefile in the past helped me with other undocumented (to = my knowledge) things as well, like support for compile-time instrumentation with LLVM's ASAN (I plan to write a short blog post about that outside = of my weekly reports someday).
