We're already using C.UTF-8 as the default locale for nspawn. Let's
make the same change for the default-locale option instead of deciding
what to use based on the locale used by the host system. Users can
still override the locale using the default-locale option if needed.
No need to involve a trivial shell script for this.
We could call the compiler directly, but test() expects arguments
to be passed separately and cc.cmd_array() can contain arguments
itself. Using env is easier than manually slicing the array because
meson has no builtins for that.
Bash will generate a very nice message for us:
/tmp/ff.sh: line 1: SOMEVAR: parameter null or not set
Let's save some keystrokes by not replacing this with our own inferior
messages.
GIT_VERSION is not available as a config.h variable, because it's rendered
into version.h during builds. Let's rework jinja2 rendering to also
parse version.h. No functional change, the new variable is so far unused.
I guess this will make partial rebuilds a bit slower, but it's useful
to be able to use the full version string.
This is very similar to (and directly based on) the test for --help. I think
it's nice to do this: the test is very quick, but it'll catch cases where we
forgot to hook up the option, or forgot to exit after printing --version, and
it'll also increase our test coverage a bit.
It seems that --invert-grep used to affect --author, but now it doesn't (with
git-2.35.1-1.fc36.x86_64), so effectively we would only show the one entry that
was supposed to be filtered out.
When we do mkdir, we should just use 0o777 and let the umask take care of the
rest. Specifying an explicit mode is inappropriate. And when touching the code,
let's replace black madness with normal python style.
It's like CIFuzz but unlike CIFuzz it's compatible with forks and
it should make it possible to run the fuzzers to make sure that
patches backported to them are backported correctly without introducing
new bugs and regressions.
