Reworked the MinGW outdated instructions in www/build.wiki. It was still warning about a MinGW bug from 2014, and it didn't cover the cross-compilation details at all. That in turn gives us a basis for explaining why cross-compilation may matter even to those who don't realize they're doing so, as in the Cygwin and WSL cases, which then explains why we recommend against using MinGW Make and the USE_WINDOWS=1 mode. ...

16:57
Removed a paragraph from www/caps/index.md referencing the now-removed "plink -ssh -T" alternative to "ssh -e none -T" on Windows. This paragraph bordered on "TMI" before, so now that it's going to be increasingly correct as Fossil 2.16+ filters out, it needs to go. ... (check-in: f48a9f71 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
16:36
Initialized a pointer to 0 to squish a bogus complaint from GCC 11 on MinGW 9. The code passes ASAN on macOS Clang without this, so I believe GCC is just doing over-eager static analysis across function calls, not realizing that the pointer *will* be initialized before it's used. ... (Closed-Leaf check-in: 54febc1f user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
16:29
Removed a few bits of src/carray.c that are only needed to allow building the module as a loadable extension. This goes beyond code minimalism, because one of the lines referenced a header we don't provide within Fossil, sqlite3ext.h, which means the only reason this branch compiled before is that it was picking up thje system version, risking a version mismatch when building against the internal SQLite. Build bug caught by initial work on the MinGW port, which doesn't provide that header. ... (check-in: 202ea753 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
08:46
[ead1432af9 | An earlier refactoring on this branch] broke the new array-based setting method: got a little too clever with my use of DB handles. ... (check-in: 3bcf3abd user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
08:45
Comment clarification ... (check-in: c625c259 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
08:34
Converted "fossil diff" and "fossil gdiff" to the new array-based setting mechanism. The legacy system(3) style shell command string methods are still available for use with --command and legacy single-string settings, but if you pass 2+ values to "fossil setting diff-command VALUES..." (ditto gdiff-command) it's now stored as an array, triggering this new mechanism. This permits old settings to continue working, letting you upgrade to the new mechanism at will. ... (check-in: 68055fd3 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
07:56
Constness fix to the new fossil_spawn() function to avoid compiler complaints on current macOS. ... (check-in: eefb8e64 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
07:52
Changed the new json_deserialize_array() interface to make it easier to call correctly. ... (check-in: 765acbc0 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
05:25
Added a JSON array deserializer function and a test-json-deserialize-array command to test it. ... (check-in: dac496b3 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
03:52
Renamed the test-* wrapper for the new JSON array serializer to better match its internal implementation function. NFC. ... (check-in: 06d27250 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
03:45
Extracted json_serialize_array() function common to both test-json-carray and settings commands, reducing redundant code. ... (check-in: ead1432a user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
02:37
Taught "fossil settings" how to accept multiple ?VALUES? parameters, storing the result as a JSON-encoded array in the config table. Nothing uses this yet, but the resulting SQL DB manipulation appears to work correctly. ... (check-in: ca069402 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
01:38
Added the carray() virtual table extension from SQLite and added the test-json-carray command to test it. This is needed for the next step on this branch. ... (check-in: 4223fe8c user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
2021-06-21
23:03
Added more test cases to test-spawn-* and gave the test cases human-readable names rather than numbers. ... (check-in: 27cdcbbb user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
22:37
Created fossil_spawn() as a dumb-as-rocks wrapper for posix_spawnp(2) and created tests to prove that it doesn't double-interpret its args as fossil_system() does. This isn't portable yet; it's just a seed we can use to bring this branch to a PoC state. ... (check-in: fb7c5797 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)

05:48
Squished a few minor errors on www/javascript.md ... (check-in: 641a02c8 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
2021-06-10
12:17
Extracted point 5 of the whyallinone doc, moving it out of the list of "good reasons why bundling other project management features with the DVCS might be useful" to the end of the doc, since it is not one of those "good reasons". It just explains that no one's forcing you to accept all of these benefits. ... (check-in: ba9e50de user: wyoung tags: trunk)
12:10
Tightened up a paragraph in point 8 of the new whyallinone doc to be less redundant, both within itself and with respect to the surrounding material. ... (check-in: 216ef76e user: wyoung tags: trunk)
2021-06-09
16:07
Typo fix ... (check-in: 5e12c625 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
15:37
A few more tiny tweaks to the whyallinone.md doc. ... (check-in: 1a74c2b3 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
15:04
Edit pass on the whyallinone.md doc. ... (check-in: 2b76ea2b user: wyoung tags: trunk)
14:24
Changed a vague "they" to "he" since the referred-to person's gender is known. ... (check-in: eeb2852e user: wyoung tags: trunk)
14:18
Expanded point 8 in the whyallinone.md doc to cover the benefits of a common skinning and Markdown rendering system. It also implicitly refers to the $current_feature body class feature to show that there's an escape hatch from all this fine uniformity. ... (check-in: 89496749 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
13:37
Considerably fleshed-out the new whyallinone doc, mainly expanding on its points but also adding a few new ones. ... (check-in: 6975de40 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
