I just noticed that this does not work on OS X; its 'time' does not support the -f option. For now I think I'm happy; it can compare several versions of Git on Linux to detect performance improvements or regressions. Comparability across systems or platforms was never a main goal. In the long run we'll have to change it to either use 'time -p' everywhere and parse that into shape -- at least GNU and OS X agree on what POSIX specifies ;-) -- or just supply a small helper utility that does the timings for us in a ready-to-use format. -- Thomas Rast trast@{inf,student}.ethz.ch
