* Update MASTER_SITES and HOMEPAGE
Changelog:
I've tagged a new release of Ninja, version v1.7.1
(I've also tagged v1.7.0, but don't use that.)
This is the first release after moving the homepage to https://ninja-build.org
and the repo to github.com/ninja-build.
== Release notes
* New feature: Implicit outputs (#989)
Documented in the manual at https://ninja-build.org/manual.html#ref_outputs
* Output formatting changes
+ in non-interactive mode, print commands when finished, not when started --
build output is now always preceded by the command that produced it (#999)
+ as a consequence, the default NINJA_STATUS is now "[%f/%t] " and %p
is percentage of finished edges instead of percentage of started (#1142)
+ for failing commands, print "FAILED: output name" followed by the
faiilng command on a new line, instead of "FAILED: command" (#1033)
* Several documentation updates
* Minor changes and bugfixes
+ "./" in paths is no longer an error but instead canonicalizes to nothing
(#1076)
+ New debugging flag `-d keepdepfile` (#1098)
+ `-w dupbuild=err` now works in subninjas (#1095)
+ Don't loop forever in dry-run mode if the generator rule is dirty (#1069)
+ `msvc_deps_prefix` can now be set per-rule, not just globally (#1043)
+ allow non-ANSI characters in depfiles (#763)
+ `-k 0` now works better with pools (#1017, #1023, #1126)
* `-t browse` changes
+ new --port and --no-browser flags; default to 'all' target (#1112)
+ make tool work if main build file isn't called build.ninja (#1116)
* Windows-specific changes
+ don't crash with deps=msvc if the compiler prints very long include notes
(#973)
* POSIX-specific changes
+ Clean up build on SIGHUP (#964)
+ subprocesses are now spawned via posix_spawn instead of fork/exec, which
speeds up builds on some systems (e.g Mac OS X) (#1118)
+ child processes no longer detached from terminal, restoring 1.5.0 behavior
(#1113)
+ experimentally expose deps=msvc on non-Windows too (#1125)
* Changes to building ninja itself
+ allow bootstrapping ninja itself in an out-of-source build dir (#979)
+ make ninja build on AIX (#1007)
+ ninja's source compiles with MSVC2015 (#1003, #1110, #1130)
+ ninja's source now also compiles with MSVC2008 (!) (#1101)
+ ninja's source builds with libc++ on Linux (#1134)
* Changes to scripts
+ zsh target completion is faster (#1046)
+ bash target completion is faster (#1047)
+ ninja_syntax: don't wrap long words in comments (#1042)
+ ninja_syntax: support implicit outputs
Changes:
I've tagged a new release of Ninja, version v1.6.0
== Release notes
* rules are now scoped to the subninja they're in. See thread
"RFC: allow scoping rules via subninja"
(https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ninja-build/q8esdaNErjo)
for discussion. (#921)
* dupe edges with multiple outputs now uses first edge
instead of last (#867)
+ can make this warning optionally an error (-w dupbuild=err),
which will hopefully become the default one day
(this release is step 1 of #931)
* pools actually work now (#959)
* no longer print "Recompacting..." when recompacting –
it's very fast in practice anyway
* generators can now run more often than twice if needed (#908)
* unexpected output names now cause a rebuild instead of
a hard error (#417)
* POSIX-specific changes
+ child processes get detached from terminal (#909)
+ check for SIGINT after ppoll/pselect -> faster Ctrl-C (#893)
+ add an explicit SIGTERM signal handler (#743)
* Windows-specific changes
+ `-t graph` now produces working dot files on Windows
when files contain backslashes
+ ninja now uses the full width in cmd.exe
(it was one column short previously)
+ Ctrl-s (or pause key) in cmd.exe now pauses ninja
+ ninja now builds with MSVS2015
+ run more than 34 child processes if there are
more than 32 cores. (#958)
* Ran ninja under afl-fuzz and fixed all crashes and bugs it found
(see new afl-fuzz section in HACKING)
+ fix crashes on cyclic graphs with multiple outputs (#875, #867)
+ failing stat() now aborts build (#830, #904)
+ cyclic rule bindings no longer crash (#902)
+ dependency cycles with multiple outputs no longer get
ninja into a stuck state (#934)
* Tweaks to configure.py
(only relevant if you compile ninja itself)
+ configure.py now works with Python 3
+ configure.py now has a --verbose mode
+ configure.py now passes -fdiagnostics-color, so ninja's build
is now colored with both new enough clangs (3.3+)
and gccs (4.9+)
* Improvements to zsh completion to work better on OS X
* Documentation updates
+ the target^ syntax is now documented
+ the rule scoping change mentioned above is documented
