Subject: [PATCH] scripts: kconfig: merge_config.sh: keep temp file in the output dir
Date: Wed, 08 Jul 2026 04:04:54 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260708-merge_config_output-v1-1-e35fa223d6f3@gmail.com> (raw)

merge_config.sh currently creates a temporary file in the current
directory. Create it under $OUTPUT instead, which allows running the
script against a read-only source tree.

The default behavior is unchanged: $OUTPUT is "." so the file stays in
the cwd.
