Formerly, running |./mach test image/| would result in running a number of devtools tests
in addition to running tests under the image/ subdirectory. With this change, only tests
under the image/ directory would be run. Note that ./mach test animations or similar will
still run a variety of tests across the tree, because this input does not match a directory.
mach dispatch makes separate, independent calls to construct build
system state. Part of this resolution is determining the object
directory. For environments without an object directory defined, we must
execute config.guess to determine the object directory. This redundant
execution of config.guess can result in significant execution overhead.
Before this patch, `mach help` with no mozconfig took ~1.5s on my OS X
machine. After this patch, it goes down to ~0.750s. On Windows, the
difference is even more pronounced, with execution time dropping from
8.5s to 0.930s.
Now that moz.build can see EXTRA_*COMPONENTS and NO_JS_MANIFEST, we can
move some logic from rules.mk (executed every build) to moz.build's
emitter.py (executed only at build-backend time).
Interactive prompts make automation more difficult for developers looking to stand up machines using bootstrap en masse.
Two new options have been added to allow users with such needs to bypass all prompts: one for selecing an application
(desktop/mobile) and another for assuming yes to all questions posed by package managers (apt-get/yum).
This avoids duplicating the logic from SimplePackager to find base
directories, and fixes some cases where the l10n repack code wouldn't
find them properly.
Bug 910660 added a consistency check that rejects cases where a manifest
inside a directory detected as being the base of an addon is included from
outside the addon. Unfortunately, this triggered false positives when
a manifest is included from within the addon, but just happens to be at
the top-level of that addon.
This avoids duplicating the logic from SimplePackager to find base
directories, and fixes some cases where the l10n repack code wouldn't
find them properly.
Some file types, such as XPTFile, read their associated data during the
copy. In the case of XPTFiles, several original files are linked together
in one destination file. When a FileCopier is used in-place, those
original files are removed before XPTFile.copy is invoked, so XPTFile.copy
fails.
Generally speaking, there are many other reasons why FileCopier can fail
in-place, but the only active use of this mode is l10n repack code, which
actually doesn't do much of the dangerous uses. However, it can end up
linking XPTFiles for some reason, which fails for the reasons given above.
Back when mozpack.path was added, it was used as:
import mozpack.path
mozpack.path.func()
Nowadays, the common idiom is:
import mozpack.path as mozpath
mozpath.func()
because it's shorter.
$ git grep mozpath\\. | wc -l
423
$ git grep mozpack.path\\. | wc -l
123
This change was done with:
$ git grep -l mozpack.path\\. | xargs sed -i 's/mozpack\.path\./mozpath./g'
$ git grep -l 'import mozpack.path$' | xargs sed -i 's/import mozpack.path$/\0 as mozpath/'
$ (pat='import mozpack.path as mozpath'; git grep -l "$pat" | xargs sed -i "1,/$pat/b;/$pat/d")
We're using as many defaults from the configure step as we can. We're also opinionated upon the defaults, but obviously allow most compare-locales options to be specified.
There are two exceptions:
Reference language is specified to be en-US, without optional argument. This is our in-tree command, and the reference language is known.
We always clobber the merge dir, and don't give an option not to. We default to a merge dir in the objdir, so we don't need to be that paranoid as in the standalone version.
Also, compare-locales clobbers merge-dir/browser etc, so you're not going to get / removed.
