This provides a Guile reimplementation of clar's "generate.py".
|
||||
It makes it possible for us to remove Python from libgit2's build-time
|
||||
dependencies.
|
||||
libgit2 is used in order to fetch a lot of sources for guix packages.
|
||||
Both Python2 and Python3 builds acted up in the past.
|
||||
Hence this patch which makes the number of libgit2 dependencies very
|
||||
small.
|
||||
The reimplementation tries to keep as close as possible to the original
|
||||
in both structure and runtime effect. Some things are thus overly
|
||||
convoluted just to make them the same as in the original.
|
||||
|
||||
Both implementations basically do:
|
||||
|
||||
grep -r 'test_.*__.*' . > clar.suite
|
||||
|
||||
It is important that the directory traversal order of the original and
|
||||
the reimplementation stay the same.
