Subject: .config - is the time really necessary
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2009 18:57:39 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090112185739.GQ12431@fluff.org.uk> (raw)
Line 3 of the .config files has the current date in it. Is this
information of any use to anyone? It makes life difficult when
producing series of patches that touches a defconfig, as you end
up with conflicts if you go back and change/remove/add one to the
series.
Would people object to the time/date being removed from the .config
file?
